For $80 they could have at least put the second skiff, and included some of the skiff guards. It’s funny that they don’t include a Skiff Guard in a Desert Skiff set.
You know what’s crazy is that everyone is saying it’s ridiculously overpriced and insane. Yet there will still be a bunch of people who will buy it full price for $80
dual molded star wars figs: Han solo (cloud city), 3P0, Thrawn, Pilot Luke, Yularen (Venator), Imperial Officer (Star Destroyer), Veers (ATAT. i think that’s all of them currently? still insane how little we have gotten
So bummed they didn't add Enoch. Probably a pipe dream, but hoping there's a chance he'll be released in a Grand Admiral Thrawn Star Destroyer set. A Night Trooper battle pack would also be amazing.
It took them 10 years, but they finally made a Grand Admiral Thrawn with the right rank plaque and they still managed to get a detail wrong, only this time is the cylinders. It should have been 4, not 2 😂😂
@@c.jonahabbott2831 The crazy part is that they got that right on Rebels Thrawn!! They didn't even need to look at the official show images, just look at their own minifigure😂😂 I'm actually kinda impressed tbh😂
The biggest absurdity of the Boba Fett fig is that the mech build itself has the dark red gauntlets of the ROTJ armor, yet they still printed green gauntlets on the minifig and then re-used the minifig in this ROTJ set. ROTJ armor would have been perfect *especially* if they wanted to re-use it in this set.
Sick leaks we got today for sure, tbh I’m disappointed that we didn’t get an Enoch minifig, was hoping for a new mold. I guess they’ll release him for S2 of Ahsoka? (😢)
@@TheFirstCurse1If you don't like Clone Wars and Rebels, then the Ahsoka show wasn't for you. To those of us that do like Ahsoka, that show is top 3 of the live action shows easy
even the small wall-turrent set of Mando was 40 bucks (got it for 33) was quite expensive, but with the trooper builderpack (20, got that for 17) the 2 together for 50 didnt feel that bad, as they can be combined.
have you seen the stickers on the ahsoka set? 😂 i’m usually not one to be on the sticker hate train but jesus, 20 stickers that all need really good lining up to not looked scuffed is gross
I think that the Desert Skiff set should be $40 but if they wanted to make it $80 then add another skiff and have around 4-5 skiff guards, Boba should look the way he does in TROJ instead of ESB but i didn't realise that the minifigures had slight changes and defiantly should have had the cape (although we know that Star Wars sets aren't Harry Potter sets because making it equal would be to difficult), and the Ahsoka set should have had 0 stickers and Ezra should have had pupils (unless if he got possessed in the show). Other than that great sets also Nien Nunb looks beautiful as he should be. Also sorry for the long comment.
So, the Rex Microfighter is not impossible to find. You have been able to buy it on Target's site for 30 days, no issue. It's more likely the Thrawn set will be sold out everywhere than Rex's Microfighter though because it has more characters and would be shipped in lower quantities.
ESB Boba Fett in an $80 set thats meant to accompany an UCS is probably the most scummy minifigure move from Lego to date. Thats not even accounting for the absence of his cape.
@@rodrign007 in TESB his jumpsuit is sand blue, like the figure here. In ROTJ it's supposed to be light gray, like in the 2017 Desert Skiff. Look at the background color, not the green armor.
@@bacondorito oh, I thought when lego did that in 2017 they were just changing things to change things. Like how Thor went from having tan hair to blonde hair for no reason. I never knew boba had different armour in the movies
@@rodrign007Here's some since you are asking: Arm gauntlets are red in RotJ, and green in ESB. Arms and Legs Vest should be gray like the main body instead of sand blue (which they have gotten right before, on the previous set in 2017 that one just lacked arm printing at the time). This was just a Lazy Re-use of a figure. At 80$ I think it's good to see people bring these things up. Premium prices require premium quality and here I'm not seeing it where it matters. And well. The green cape and blue jet pack are also absent but the jetpack is the least of the problems with the figure. I like how they get Luke "right" by giving him the gray robes affected by sand and lightning from the scene. It's so inconsistent to see them take this much care to detail in the same set that they re use Boba lol
@@Makocat he even has a different coloured jetpack in rotj?? I genuinely had no idea how different his design was in the two movies. While it’s unfortunate he’s the same, I genuinely don’t think it’s a big deal since he had like 20 seconds of screen time and he’s still clearly recognizable as boba fett. I also expected him to be reused from the mech as soon as I heard there was a sarlacc pit so I didn’t even expect much. I think the red gauntlets would have looked awesome though, and even the blue jetpack
What are the chances that lego have plans for a battle pack type set featuring more of thrawns stormtroopers and captain Enoch? Sorta like how we got captain Vaughn in that one battle pack last year.
@@c.jonahabbott2831 I also like Battle Packs With named figures like the Bounty Hunter Battle Pack. But sometimes I like to buy a few Packs to build an army. But the new Stormtrooper Helmets are Not good in my Opinion, so I wouldn‘t buy it a few times anyway.
Besides the cauldron, I can’t tell what the boba fett minifig is missing. Can someone please explain it to me, because I honestly can’t see any other inaccuracies between wpisode 6 boba fett and the minifig from the set?
This Sarlac pit is so unnecessarly big. You can immediately tell that lego wanted it to be expensive and the designer had to put these pieces somewhere. Cringe.
I hope the skiff gets discounted because the individual elements look great including the figs. I do with they had the skiff and pit integrate better as the skiff clearly needs to be higher.
These two sets are honestly the only two sets I’ll be buying day 1 for sure. All the other August Star Wars sets coming out I honestly just don’t care for. I mean I’ll definitely get them, but I’ll just wait. I don’t need to rush out and get them. The Peridea set is 100% a day 1 buy no question. The Sarlacc Pit set I might get, but for $80 is ridiculous and I might just wait for a sale. Plus there are so many other sets coming out from other themes like Marvel sets and the Ideas Jaws set that I’m definitely interested in.
I miss the late 2000s, when the clone wars movie released and the first wave of clone wars sets came, and good original trilogy sets, and episode 7-9 did not exist. The originals like Atlantis and power miners were also pretty sick, I’d like to see you’re opinion on the older original themes such as the ones previously mentioned and agents, space police, classic space, all that.
Cool sets , but I consider, that they overpriced, The battle on Peridia should cost 40 $ maximum, second set - 50$. But in Russia these sets will cost more than the official price 😬:(
I’ve never felt better about having the accurate Boba figure than now lol - I’m only gonna pick this up because it actually perfectly matches that desert skiff set perfectly in colour scheme and scene completion - I definitely wouldn’t recommend it otherwise
I'm pretty happy with the models in both sets, they both seem like fun playsets. Ultimately a lot of fans won't care or even notice discrepancies between the TESB and ROTJ Boba Fett designs, so while I'm not saying it was LEGO's best decision I can kind of see why they did what they did. Either version needed the orange cape though. With Captain Enoch, I'm still holding out a bit of hope for his minifigure. I'm sure we still remember the single Dark Trooper minifigure from the 2021 Imperial Light Cruiser, which some people bought a whole bunch of off of Bricklink, and then LEGO made a battle pack of them a year later. I think that there's potential that we could get a set similar to the Dark Trooper Attack, maybe with three Night Troopers, and Captain Enoch as the named minifigure of the pack (as Luke was in the Dark Trooper set)
I think they could have just made the gauntlets red and no one would have noticed and it’s sad bobas missing his cape there are some great custom boba capes but a lot of Lego Star Wars fans don’t like customs
@@alastairolson3226 Might not even be that we don't like customs, but Lego's made capes for a whole BUNCH of previous Boba Fett iterations, so not getting more in the modern era of Lego Star Wars feels like a downgrade
The price is obviously a problem with the sciff, but im honestly more disappointed that we didn't get more general bad guys. Like, anyone who doesn't get the Jabba's sail barge is going to have this place set with no Jabba cronies. Why does Luke even have to jump with no one to push him off lol
5:32 Btw, if you haven’t seen AHSOKA. Then *EZRA LEAPS OFF THE PLATFORM!* will come off as very funny out of context. Just imagine the Lego commercial. “Oh no! Ezra is surrounded by enemies. Ahsoka jumps in to save the day! Ezra leaps off the platform! The new Lego Star Wars set!” Like Ezra jumps off the platform?! What?! 😂
I'll definitely pass on the Desert Skiff as I'm happy with the 2012 one I have and might get the Nien Numb figure on Bricklink. The Peridea duel? I hope to grab solely for Thrawn.
Probably will get the Duel on Peridea, just for that phenomenal Thrawn figure! I already have an Ahsoka series Ahsoka and the other figures all look great too! However, they nailed it on the needed touch ups from the old Thrawn!!
I saw a rumor about a creative set whereby you can build r2d2, chopper, the pink astromech and a black astromech. The cool part was you can put funny props on their bodies like an inflateable duck. Have you seen this set? LEGO 75392 Creative Play Droid Builder
For the set with Thrawn I think two Night Troopers + Enoch should have been made + a little detail mistake about cylinder codes, he has normally two on each sides not one on each sides, besides the shoulders should have been more printed. Okay they fixed the rank plaque, added cool legs but still.. Ahsoka, near perfect but the sabers should be redesigned, Ezra is pretty well done too, same goes to Morgan.
i just thought of something i really wish they would make but sadly, i don’t think it’s very possible it’s mostly pointless but a sarlacc pit with more detail and a little play feature where you place boba fett on this tile and you can spin this lever that sends him down and pulls up a boba fett figure of when he exited the sarlacc pit covered in all the stuff.
I saw the skiff and was like, huh that’s a nice 40-50 dollar set. 80 bucks!? What is Lego doing. You could at least give Boba a cloth for that price, though after seeing the UCS Venator (and all the modern clones) I’n not that surprised. The Battle of Peridia looks good but the only reason I would buy it is because of Thrawn. (He’s my favorite Star Wars character) I do like the Ahsoka though. Missing Enoch is annoying for the price, though the Night trooper does look good. I also really hate the weird eyes Lego has been doing.
No fig has "pupils" in the Ahsoka set my guy. All eye highlights/gleams are in thr same position, but yes, they are different colors. You may not like them on blue eyes (for some figs though?), but they are consistent across the lineup.
The Duel on Peridea set is kind of like an upscaled version of the Obi-Wan vs Darth Vader set from a couple of years ago. One extra figure for $5 more.
What did they do to Ezra? I know it’s years later but where’s the blue hair I mean Hera looks the same Sabine looks the same and zeb looks the same I mean come on if I get Ezra it’s going to be the old one ☹️.
Man I just want the anniversary figs but I really don't like the sets, like the sith infiltrator, this sarlac pit($80 wth), those droids with young Leia. Really sucks
First off where can I get your shirt love it, second I'm go to be getting a skiff so it can sit right next to the ucs sailbarge, and third I'm really disappointed about the captian Enoch not being included that's the one fig I was highly looking forward to. Great video as always can't wait to see your review on the sailbarge
the ahsoka set has Battle on Mustafar vibe, without the flying sticks and platforms Ezra's character looks like he is blind....those eyes would be fine on Chirrut Imwe from Rogue One, or if during the show, Ezra got a new Force Ability to blank out his eyes and see entirely through the Force
Ok so quick correction for you, LEGO Star Wars is not their top performing theme. We get the financial briefings and it’s never been #1. It’s usually in the top 5 but never number 1.
Why couldn’t they include more clear pieces for the skiff? It being on level with the Sarlacc really ruins the whole look of the scene. The skiff needs to be higher
