The star wars fandom is filled with many of those type of guys. When the Rogue One plastic collectibles lists of figures and sets started trickling in, you'd think some of these people had to be talked down from the roof of a tall story building.

I think the high-res pictures leaked the other day do more justice to the u-wing than the early fuzzier ones. It also looks pretty good in the teaser and much more consistent with the look of the "traditional" ships like the a/x/y-wings.

I'm just wondering about the color choices (as usual). I guess the set is of a clean u-wing but I think it would have looked even better with a bit darker color scheme to give it that dirty space flight feel.

I agree. It's too white, but that's one of the minor pitfalls of lego.  The luggabeast is another example where the limitations of solid colors forced them to create a blue plate that didn't match the rusted look of the character in the movie. 

This one thing that megablocks at least attempts to do by creating multi-colored bricks for the military vehicles.

Trailer drops tonight!

Death Star check
Star Destroyer check
Vader check

Good trailer

DV made the trailer as expected as it was 

Some real good shots of Star Destroyer. I really liked those views. I think it looks interesting and just seeing that shot of Vader is worth the price of admission

Time to quick flip Rey's speeder

I loved the trailer, seeing x-wings on screen again made me realize how far technology has come!

Not for me, I want to see just a glimpse of him in battle.  The dude was feared across the galaxy, it's about time we saw why on the big screen.  If you've read the comic Vader Down, he tears through Rebel troops, I'd like to see some of that action.

Predict we will get a kinder gentler D V in the movie 

Very cool, MON MOTHMA!!!

Awesome awesome awesome. Incredible.

I must admit, I had the same elated feeling, as I had during the force awakens trailer.  That was very very satisfying.

A 4 year old little boy sitting in the theater in 1977 would never have imagined this. At least this one couldn't have imagined this. I really cannot wait.

Nice.  We are about the same age.  I saw SW in a drive in theatre, and it was my first real memory of a movie.

Teasing

Ok, I was going to say..  I didn't know if I had to go and do a run on Rey's speeder in the morning, because i'm not at target just yet!

I remember seeing episode 1 when I was 5  

Rocket to AT-AT's neck...  Looked like someone has been playing SW Battlefront lately

The inhale
The X-Wings deploying their wings
The U-Wing taking off
Her smirk
Flying upside down
The eclipse
The speech at the beginning
That SD coming out of the shadows
The music
The ragtag team
That robot
The "samurai" guy

Or got some Intel from Hera's rebel cell
