Two New LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens Polybag Images Found

LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens The Finalizer (30277)

Polybag hunters, there are now images for some new LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens polybags that will be coming out this year. The first one above is the First Order Star Destroyer, also called The Finalizer (30277). It has the same Resurgent-class Star Destroyer but it has some minor changes to it.

The other polybag is a miniature Kylo Ren’s Command Shuttle (30279). It’s pretty much a smaller version of set 75104icon.

Thanks to Joey for heads up.

LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens First Order General (5004406) Minifigure Polybag First Look

LEGO Star Wars First Order General (5004406)

There will be a new promotion over at Toys R Us Hong Kong starting in a few days and in their ad, we get our first look at the new LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens First Order General (5004406) minifigure polybag which I first talked about this minifigure earlier this month. It’s hard to see but the minifigure looks pretty similar to General Hux from Kylo Ren’s Command Shuttle (75104)icon but without the sideburns. I’m not sure if there are any other differences between the two at this time as the image is quite small. This polybag will supposedly be here in the US sometime in 2016. Clickthrough the image to see a larger version. Thanks to XiaoKeung for emailing in about this.

Update: There is now a clearer image of the First Order General (5004406) via Brickset. As suspected, it is pretty much a generic general.

LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens Summer 2016 Set Names

It’s never too early for details on summer 2016 LEGO sets but Just2Good and his “insider” is back with a new video regarding some upcoming LEGO Star Wars sets. There will be at least two more sets based on The Force Awakens movie which are “Encounter on Jakku” and the “Resistance X-Wing”.

There are some spoilers in the video so I won’t discuss any of that if you haven’t seen the movie yet but I do have a clue on what one of the sets will look like. For the Resistance X-Wing set, I’m going to assume that it’ll look like the one from the Series 3 Microfighters set but in a larger scale. How large will it be? I’m not sure but hopefully around the same size as Poe’s X-Wing Fighter (75102)icon but in the blue and gray/white color scheme. Feel free to discuss below but no spoilers please and if you haven’t seen the movie yet, avoid watching the stuff after 15 seconds.

LEGO Jan-Feb 2016 Club Magazine Exclusive Star Wars Poster

LEGO Club Magazine Jan-Feb 2016 Poster

If you’re still able to get the physical copies of the LEGO Club Magazines, the January-February 2016 issue has a very cool exclusive poster featuring the new LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens Buildable Figures of Kylo Ren, Captain Phasma, and the First Order Stormtroopers. The only bad thing about it is that it’s stapled and not rubble glue attached like they do sometimes. Hopefully there’s a non-folded/stapled that’ll be available in the future because this is a cool poster to hang up.

On the other side, it features a some neat artwork featuring the Millennium Falcon.

LEGO Star Wars 2015 Advent Calendar (75097) Round Up

LEGO Star Wars 2015 Advent Calendar (75097)

The LEGO Star Wars 2015 Advent Calendar (75097) has been completed yesterday and there were some things that I liked about it and there were things where I wasn’t too impressed by it.

Good

One thing I really liked about this year’s advent calendar is the little sub-themes the builds were separated into like Tatooine, Endor, and Hoth. Even the flap on the box doubles up as a little playmat featuring the destinations.

A were a lot of the models that I really enjoyed including the Sarlaac, Sandcrawler, Imperial Star Destroyer, and the AT-AT, just to name a few.

All of the minifigures this year were pretty good since we didn’t get a Battle Droid for the first time ever in an advent calendar. Of course there are also some standout minifigures like the homage to the Ralph McQuarrie’s 1979 Lucafilm Christmas card with the R2-D2 and C-3PO minifigures. The other minifigures that I liked were Jawa and the Hoth Rebel Trooper which was a little teaser on the character that we’ll get next year.

Bad

There were also some things that I didn’t enjoy as much like the weapon racks we get every year. There were also the ones with the play features which turned to be rather bland like the catapult, the turret, and the Hoth Command Post. Other than that, all the other builds were decent.

I also think the retail price of $39.99 is a little overpriced for what you get but it is … Continue
