Well, we're all in raving anticipation of the October set, "Ultimate Space Battle". It includes Obi Wan and Anakin's fighters, two vulture droids and a Trifighter. I will continue to love the sets, even though they have flesh tone. I hope TLC will someday release the old Ep. 1 sets again, I loved the droids. And I never got a lot of good sets either. I solemly swear to get the sets I crave, no matter what. Only 8 days! I wonder however if they might start creating battle scenes, like the field from Ep. 2, as sets. Any theories?

Finally!! I'm going to get General Grevious chase, wookie catamaran, and clone scout walker.
Does any one know how tall General Grevious is?

Ah, finally a place to talk about sets. Here's my first question: Does anyone know when these will all be availiable in Canada? I want them real bad, but they're absolutely nowhere in sight!

Yes, they do, and that's one of my biggest beefs with them -- the battery is non-replacable. So it's bad enough that you have a minifigure that you can't take apart or pose well, but once the battery goes out, it's absolutely useless. I think that the best thing to do is buy a light-up minifig set through S@H, because I guarentee that kids going through the store will do the "Try me!" function on the box and waste away battery life.

I'm going to TRU on Saturday for the release of the ROTS stuff, and I seriously hope to find some LEGO! I have about 185.00 (meant to be in pound sterling, but lousy pound sign won't work
) to spend, so first I'll buy as many ROTS fgures as possible, and spend the rest on LEGO (hopefully I'll have enough for the General Grievous Chase).

I really want that ARC-170 Starfighter. I still need quite a bit of money for it.
I was hoping there would be more to the GG chase. $20 dollars for those two things doesn't seem worth it to me. The EpiII sets had a lot for $20...owell.
Hey, in this topic we can talk about the Star Wars lego game, correct?

I got a Jedi Starfighter and the Vulture Droid. Pretty cool set, don't see why they should re-release it in another set. It sound like a multi set pack to me.

Eh, no offense, but what do you mean by ROTS figures? They aren't selling individual minifigs if you mean that. Oh, wait, you mean non-Lego stuff. I'm buying two GG chases for the minifig. And a LOT of scout walkers. Oh, and Frosty, there's a rule on linking to forum sites. Don't. You shouldn't mention the name either. Just refer to it as: TheSWsitewithforumsthatcan'tbenamed.

I really want to have the General Grievous Chase,only because I want that Grievous minifig(and because the set is cool too)(and has 5 lightsabers).

I spotted the Vader Transformation set at TRU on Friday, was gonna get it, but was a few cents short. So far, my wishlist for Ep3 sets out so far, is the Vader Transformation, Scout Walker, and after hearing the price, I'm slightly curious about the Grievious Chase.
For the other movies, I wouldn't mind getting the Droid Escape(I know, it's old..but I missed out on it.), the snow speeder and the TIE Fighter VS. Y-Wing(If only for the fact that it includes a full-droid and not just the head on a few studs.)

My two loves.... system bricks and star wars..... wow. I have enough for GG chase right tright now, the rest shall just have to wait since my allowance is being minimized due to me having 3 accounts on SWG (a reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeealy awesome game, get it or ill send my army of bothans after you) I want the clone walker, it will most likely bring down the cost of Clone trooper minifigs, although in this movie non clones entered the army so they are called Storm Troopers now technically speaking. I have to say though, im utterly disappointed that two new great jedi will be wasted with those dumb light up sabers. I say we start a petition and send it to lego to make another set with Mace and Luminara and make sure that they dont make them with light up one piece minifog sabers
!!
!!
!!
!!
Ill most likely eventually get all of those sets exept vader transformation (too many vaders already) One thing i want is more dark jedi, they need to make KOTOR minifigs which have alot more dark jedi. That or make minifig packs of dark and light jedi. and two words, TWILEK MINIFIGS!!!!!!!!!! i want more! more i tell you more!!!!!!! Fortuna's tentacle are ugly, they need some nice looking ones in blue.... like a dancer twilek and a twilek jedi.... i want a minifig of each race!!!!! AT LEAST i would like the twilek minifig, a trandoshan minifig, a bothan minifig, a mon calamari minifig, and another hut such as Borvo or something. OH! and i wish there was a minifig of someone else in Mandalorian armor that had a removable helmet with no jetpack, the jetpack being a dif part. Hey, if anything it increases piece cost meaning more $ for them.
oh yeah.... i want a large (emphasis on LARGE) figure of a Gorax..... i want one badly..... Huge because gorax are giant ape like creatures that live on endor, very very huge. Um... since this post has been mostly on minifigs i want... I want a night sister minifig, a minifig of a Black Sun assassin, a lego Krayt Dragon, a bantha, a sarlacc set, and a lego jedi temple.....

Man, Ep.1 sets rocked. I liked Watto's junkyard. I had the podracers, but I dissassembled them(sp? for parts. I love making my own little adventures with droids and storm troopers. I collected all kinds of battle droids, like the red-chests and blues, and yellows, but I don't have Geonosian colored ones. I'm gonna buy several VT sets for the Vader in it because I've lost mine. And the droid parts. General Grievious minifig all the way! I wish they'd have a Boba-confronts-Mace-and-kills-him set, but I hear he dies another way. If you have only seen the movies you know slightly what I mean, but if you haven't read the Boba Fett books you won't really get it.
I want to get old sets so badly... Man, do you think after ep.3 is over, TLC will start releasing the old sets as classic sets? I hope so. TLC had better make these sets good, and Ultimate Space Battle should have Obi Wan's fighter different from Anakin's. Squirrels,

Alright. General Grievous Chase is a terrible set. The build is bad, because I have one. Does anyone who lives in the Cincinnati area know where I can find some new sets? Wal-Mart has been a gold mine. Wookie Catameran, General Greivous Chase, Wookie Attack, and Ultimate Lightsaber Duel. The Catameran is AWESOME!!!!!
PS. Obi-Wan's lightsaber is gray too.

Mar 28 2005, 06:55 PM
I don't really mind the grey lightsabers, since I've already collected a decent amount of the chrome ones. Yeah, the Catamaran looks awesome, and I'm actually gonna try to get two of the ARC-170's (one for the shelf and one for my part drawers).
By the way, the sets are actually listed on Shop@Home now... still not available 'til the 2nd though.

I got lucky and found ALL the EPIII sets (minus Anikan's Jedi Starfighter, but I already have that on order from S@H) at my not-local Zellers. I bought the ARC-170 and the scout walker. Both of them rock. 'Sept the 'bomb dropper' on the 170 is bad. You pot the bomb in an then it jams the dropper! Other than that great though. I really want the swamp speeder in the catamaran set but I don't want to shell out for the whole thing. I made a custom instead. Yea, so it was perfect timing because it was a few days before I started the script for my Lego SW Movie. Niw I have some cool sets for it. But I can't start filming 'till the Jedi Starfighter comes in the mail! Agh!

PS:
FP2X, I got my sets in Canada on the 26th at Zellers, as I said. Check your neares Zellers and hope they got an early shipment. If you live near the West Edmonton Mall, I was on a trip there and thats were I got mine.
PPS:
Did anyone order the Jedi Starfighter w/ free mini from S@H on the back of the Lego mag? I did.

Have any of you heard about the new Lego star wars game? It's coming out
sometime in April. It will have levels from episodes I-III and I think it will have over 30 playable characters (30!
).
If you need more infomation, head to gamespot.com. They have lots of screenshots of the game in action.

Hate to burst your bubble, Biogreg, but that's the alternate model for the clone scout walker. I will get VT, GG chase, USB, Wookie catamaran, Turbo Tank, Wookie Attack, Trifighter, and any other thing that appeals to me.
