I've been called worse.

75530? Did he not look cool?

I think the Praetorian Guard looks good.

By Gorilla I mean the 75189

some of the US prices are showing higher for me.   So might have some more 70917 type raises which was 139.99 and was originally listed at 129.99.  Showing $10 higher on at least 3 of them that I checked.

Personally, the quote I (and at least one other person) used was "sexy."

I think it could be polarizing. It's different. I like it. I mean, I like the design. I'm not thrilled with yet another main character being a pilot. But whatever.

 

Yeah, just saw it ... not bad, but doubt i'll pick up all these sets.  While the new AT-AT is cool, I'll wait to see how this plays out in the movie before deciding on getting it.  The weird walker thing isn't too bad either as it at least has a unique design.  I was expecting just a modified AT-ST...  

The transport pod looks like they sliced off the right side of Leia's Troop Transporter.  Overall, now that i've seen the sets, they are better than what I would have assumed they would be.  

Elite praetorian guard and bb8 are my favorite from what I saw so far.

Sets look alright to me but it looks like we have another Hoth planet... should have guessed this would be another copied movie like TFA was to the original

Watermarked box art up for all TLJ sets on the usual sites.

I like Kylo Ren's Fighter, reminds me a bit of the Shadow ships from Babylon 5 

Bb8 is a strange one. Everything about it says UCS but no badge on the box.

Too small. The belly is about 16 studs wide and it looks small beside the brick separator. Nice UCS stand, though.

Neither does Ewok village. There is a shot of the set with the UCS plaque so is UCS. Going back to UCS lite a la Jedi star fighter. I do like how they've made it to scale with the UCS R2. R2 is about 45 studs in height and BB-8 is about half which is about right. He's a little dude! May be deceptive and I'll hold off until I see the set in person but it doesn't look completely spherical. If so then that's a shame and a bit sloppy. May now take the plunge and build anio's BB-8. From an investment perspective and given price point this could could be a winner since it's bound to be popular.

I think the made it smaller to appeal to a wider audience.

Chewie is just the worst design ever, right? Look at those knee hinges.

If any sets are likely to sell out on Force Friday, I think it will be BB-8. Also highest likelihood for Christmas flipping. I'd also suggest dusting off some of those R2 sets for Christmas because people who missed it will want something to pair with BB.

Careful Tabbyboy might start to get a bit excited

Folks, all the photos are now online. Just google **************

 

There is a reason why people don't post links to the pictures... if other people can't be bothered to google it themselves or figure it out, then that's they're problem. We still need to be careful not to post a straight up "here's how to find them" at the moment.

What is this google you speak of, is it some sort of new fangled device, we should have heard of?

 

Exactly my point. If people can find Brickpicker, they can find a few grainy photos that are being shared all over ...

BB-8 is the only immediate buy - might not even bother with this first wave of The Last Jedi... I still have the last AT-AT which is more appealing to the eye.  The Star Destroyer maybe has some intrigue.

Love the Elite Praetorian Guard

I'm intrigued by the scout walker in terms of movement.

Yes, he's some sort of guard.
