interesting dilemma for collectors...matching pair w/ studs on top...or mis-match...wait another 10 years for BB-8 remake

Rumor has it the next big droid will lead a series, have force powers, and a KK-ZE call sign.

Pretty sure that would have been the plot for Solo 2: reVenge of Female Droids

Would that just be the MF plotting it's own warp speed route into a sun?

I have to say I'm impressed. I don't normally buy star wars sets on release day but this has to be the exception. 

Imo I much prefer the arches to the studs, it looks way more accurate. It seems like they've knocked it out the park on this one. 

Will there be a gwp on May 4th with this?

Hopefully, I guess we have to hope it's still available for it.

2021 Helmets = STUDS EVERYWHERE

2021 Droids = SMOOTH

This makes no sense.

It was made available for 8 minutes by mistake and its already sold out.

/s

I assume different designers worked on the different series

Not sure if this was posted before, but the may 4th promo was supposedly leaked

 

Yeah I just watched that video a few minutes ago as well. I'm not impressed at all. 👎

I have a feeling that there is a civil war of sorts within TLG and it's team of designers in terms of studs vs smooth.  I can see the purist side wanting the studs because "That's LEGO" and the IP Authentic side pushing for more new "Smooth & Curved" pieces to bring more realism into the models...because "that's where LEGO is going".

I have built a lot of 90s sets recently. Some sets are better brick built (like castles), and some aren't. Some need upgrades (Eldorado Fortress) and some don't.

Someone else had a post a week or two ago about this and I think the brick built ones are better than 500 1x1 tiles and slopes. I particularly think that's there are too many small pieces now, especially in modulars. Just make me a big freaking building with some nice outside features - who actually plays with the inside?

That said, if you can round out a head, then round it out.

New Lego element in R2?

Maybe it's the rock character in the High Republic.

I am getting a little concerned that May the 4th will be lackluster if the official store does not get some new product or at least the cantina set back in stock.  Nothing available now is causing me to want to spend money to get the mini tatooine set.

missing words

Instructions are up online for the Tatooine GWP. 2 new printed elements, 1 that should be exclusive to this set. 

Of course I have the other 3 and will want to get this. Dammit, I try really hard not to get Star Wars sets and then this happens.

So this is where Aunt Beru stores her unlimited supply of blue milk

Wow tatooine set is even worse than I imagined. bring back the minifigures!
