August 13, 201312 yr I'm really curious how those builds will turn out now. They don't sound like a mini build yet not quite a midi model either. ....Where exactly would these new ones fit? In any case, unless Lego is planning on doing a different kind of container the same way as the Planets were, I see these as army building blister packs with a single minifigure and selection of parts; all of which is usable in anything. I'm thinking they might look like the X-Wing from this unreleased Yavin Base set: Anyway, I'm happy that the BPs only contain one faction... just like the good ol' days of 2007.

Maybe the recruitment sets will look like that X-Wing fighter. That is the best guess that I have hear so far.
August 14, 201312 yr Here is a list of possible DC Superheros sets from The Brick Fan. (The Riddler is in there, but it looks like you already added it to the list.)

There are no images except for The Riddler Chase (76012) as of this time. There are four sets in this wave and will be available late this year/early 2014. The Penguin Face-Off (76010)

August 14, 201312 yr I wonder how the Police Gunship will look as a UCS.... It will be interesting to see how LEGO will interpret the ship. There may be some cool building techniques with it.
August 14, 201312 yr Thanks for sharing, Alcarin! I do have a question though: Do you know whether the Recruitment Line sets will still have planets in them? I hope they don't! That BrickMaster book looks great, and I am hyped up for the next wave of sets!!!

That BrickMaster book looks great, and I am hyped up for the next wave of sets!!! The Planets are done with according to the original source. They are more like Midi sets with a single figure each. The Battle Packs could be really good. Other than that, I'm not excited for the upcoming wave at all.

August 15, 201312 yr Captain Obvious, but there are lots of preliminaries here, so there will be a lot of changes from what you see in these and what the final product looks like. Personally, I think the mini fighters are stupid, but kids will probably really like them. And thanks Darth Lego, I can never get stuff to embed, so I just linked it.
August 15, 201312 yr Nothing of terribly huge interest there... There will inevitably be some larger sets next year too, thankfully. Oh yeah... More flick missiles...
August 15, 201312 yr Well I must say the medium scale models look ridiculous... i expected a little bigger stuff ... Also I hope the figure decisions are not final I was really hoping for another Aalya Secura in those sets.... And if i see right no Wookies in b-pack ?
August 15, 201312 yr Author Alright, who has two thumbs and said what the Recruitment (Microfighters) set builds would be? They are mini builds big enough to hold a minifigure yet small enough for an impulse buy just as I pointed out prior. Here are the images in high resolution. (I saved a backup of each just in case they get taken down which just happened. Glad I planned ahead.)
August 15, 201312 yr does anyone think there will be a new UCS Set? They just released one on May 4th this year. I do not think that there will be a new UCS.
August 15, 201312 yr It seems that those pictures are pushing the new spring loaded shooters as a new and excellent invention. Also those mini Star Wars ships remind me of chibi MOCs that I see on the internet.
August 15, 201312 yr Looks like a last cash grab for clone related stuff. So many of these sets have the same battle droids and super battle droids. None of this looks very appealing to me. I wish they would focus more on the OT. This fall's lineup looks much better with at least a bunch of sets based on RotJ. I suppose this is just a fill in area for 2014 until the new movies start coming out. At least i will save some money first half of the year! Maybe i can actually catch up! LOL I got into the game late and i just did complete my Star Wars sets for 2012.
August 15, 201312 yr Thinking on the Recruitment sets now, I'm curious how those builds and boxes will be like. I've heard the build could be small yet big enough to seat the minifigure which comes with it. Kind of reminds me of this deformed X-wing I saw on CUUSOO a few weeks back. Not really sure how to take that. Update: Just saw an image of the recuitment sets and I can confirm that the Recruitment sets are boxed sets and the minifigures will indeed be able to sit inside/on the vehicles, exactly like the image posted. Think of chibi-style vehicles. They're in small boxes and labeled "Microfighters". All the 2013 boxes are dark and feature Darth Vader as the character on the top right corner. Sorry to disappoint but the Kashyyyk Troopers features Clone troopers and not Wookies. The catalog shows launch in February. To me, only the Microfighters are the only ones interesting enough to get.
August 15, 201312 yr does anyone think there will be a new UCS Set? With the new release of the Ewok Village, it will probably be next summer until the next "UCS" set. B-Wing and SSD will probably fall off the radar by then and will leave just R2-D2 if I'm correct.(I don't count 10188 anymore, that thing is ridiculous and won't die) At that time, bring on giant Cloud City.

August 15, 201312 yr Well I must say the medium scale models look ridiculous... i expected a little bigger stuff ... Also I hope the figure decisions are not final I was really hoping for another Aalya Secura in those sets.... It's not. If you look closely at the bottom of one of the pictures, it reads "Not final product. All imagery pending licensor approval." So things can still change, though it will probably be fairly minimal. Also if you look at the pictures of the boxes of the products, the usual SW image is missing (ie. Darth Maul, Clone Trooper, etc.). Instead, there's only the LEGO Star Wars logo. I do see a Darth Vader logo at the top of the page, so that could be a hint of the logo to come.
