Here is the first look at the LEGO Star Wars 20th Anniversary set. It’s a Snowspeeder with 49 pieces. It looks like a replica of the set 7130 from 1999. You can compare with the two pictures!
New little neat pack available in stores at the end of March. The set features a duel between Rey and Kylo Ren from The Force Awakens. Lego has created a scenery with trees and the two minifigures standing on rotating baseplates at the lightsaber duel. Price is set to €20.
New launch of Star Wars Cloud City – Betrayal at Cloud City. It’s over fithteen years since Lego displayed the first set of Cloud City from the Star Wars movie episode five.
All the 2812 Lego bricks from this set makes a very detailed awesome built. Landing platform with Boba Fett’s Slave I ship, a detailed promenade, a dining room with seating for 5 minifigures and a garbage processing room. There’s a carbon freeze chamber with a function to ‘freeze’ Han in carbonite.
The set comes with 18 minifigures Han Solo, Princess Leia and Luke Skywalker in Bespin outfits, Chewbacca, C-3PO, Lando Calrissian, Lobot, 2 Cloud City Guards, 2 Cloud Car Pilots, Leia and Han in Hoth outfits, Darth Vader, Boba Fett, 2 Stormtroopers a Ugnaught, plus R2-D2 and an IG-88 droid.
There is an interrogation chamber with a turning interrogation chair plus a prison cell. The hangar has a secondary landing platform and a secret trapdoor.
LEGO Facebook has released the upcoming summer LEGO Star Wars BrickHeadz. I like the two-pack with a Luke (Dagobah) and Yoda (41627). Since Yoda isn’t a tall person, he’s shorter than the usual BrickHeadz. I think they’ve designed his ears in an authentic look. They have also made a great hair for Luke.
The Ewoks are my favourite characters in the Starwars epilog. If found this brilliant Lego creation done by the nick name Lego 7 at flickr. He has included all the necessary details to reflect the Ewoks. Very clever and thoughtful design. Check out his flickr page for some ideas!
On May the 4th an Ultimate Collector Series Y-Wing starfighter will be released. The model has an amazing level of details, including an openable minifigure cockpit for the included Gold Leader. Other features are a wheel-activated rotating ion cannons on top, retractable landing skids and a space for the included R2-BHD astromech droid. There are 1967 pieces.
On the New York Toy fair they displayed the new Lego Star Wars 2018 summer sets. One of my favorites was Yoda’s hut. Master trainer Luke returns in a new look. The previous set from 2003, Luke had a clear yellow skin tone. You also get Yoda and a dirty R2-D2. I really like the new R2-D2! It contains 229 parts in different colors. This set looks more like the real hut from Empire Strikes back .
TC-14 is a protocol droid like C-3PO, but in a silver version. This minifigure was available as a special promotional polybag on the 4th of May 2012. I bought it from Amazon and it arrived safely. This is one of the most unique Lego Star Wars minifigures and one of my most valuable ones. It stands out with it’s shiny chrome coating and nicely detailed prints on the chest and the back. A common issue with this fig is that some comes with scratches. Apparently this has something to do with the production process, so don’t worry!
