You forgot to replace Darth Vader with the Rogue One image in the corner. [emoji6]

In honor of the Rogue One trailer....

Rogue One movie looks so good!

I was kinda hoping the release of the new Rogue One trailer could've been a trigger for the official presentation of the new Death Star. So far nothing happened. I'm guessing the next opportunity to get maximum attention would be Force Friday, i.e. September 30.

That would be a bit late for the eary VIP release on the 15th, though!

Expect some pics within the next week or so.

I agree with your first statement. Your second one has been stated for quite some weeks now. ;-)

I think they may make the Holiday Train the early VIP access for September with this first being made available on Force Friday.

There are 2 early access sets next month.

Like the man in Orthopaedic shoes, I stand corrected.

Ugh. I dislike seeing pics of THAT. It's the Worst 3.75" scale MF ever. Simply, the worst.  Hasbro could have simply used the 2004 mold (based on the 1978 one but greatly enhanced - heck, even on ep 2 or 3 of Stranger Things)  and added nerf darts into both mandibles.

I thought they used the version from 1998 or 2003 in Stranger Things?

Hasbro sacrificed action figure playability for NERK firing. Hey, some kids like that for the first days of owning it despite known reports the NERK firing had quality issues. Another nugget is the designee of this debacle worked on all PREVIOUS 3.75" scaled MFs.

Yup.  They had Kenner vintage figures but not the Kenner MF .  They choose the next best thing assuming they didnt have the budget to buy an original one off eBay   By the way, it was in ep 3

Larry, is that you?

The guy who leaked the 2017 set list on Eurobricks also made this comment later in the same thread:

 

Given the very close piece count to 10188 not surprising at all.

So people are gonna basically lose their minds because this is likely to be 10188 part deux?

I will be extremely disappointed in LEGO if  it's just a rehash of 10188.

Expect nothing and you won´t be disappointed.

At least the price point is not a rehash.

Everyone assumes they're getting a BIGGER and BETTER and IMPROVED Death Star for their hard earned $499.

Not so fast my friend. Least we forget, this is 2016, the theme of which has been 20% less set for 20% more price.
