May the 4th has passed and the set that was released was the LEGO Star Wars UCS Y-Wing Starfighter (75181) and not the rumored Cloud City set but there are some new details of the set coming out of Eurobricks recently. User Paperballpark, who is considered a reliable source of info, has revealed that there is a Cloud City (75222) set coming, most likely in the fall, and it’s a playset similar to the Death Star (75159). They mention that if you “chop the bottom off the Death Star, then add a few platforms and a ship or two,” it’ll be what we could expect in the set. The ships are rumored to be a medium-sized Slave I and a Twin-Pod Cloud Car.

As for the play details, it’ll be open like the Death Star and I assume it’ll have different rooms with scenes from Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back like the dining room, the carbon freezing chamber, incinerator room, and the famous “I Am Your Father” scene which is also a LEGO Ideas project that is currently under review. You can read more about some little teasers about the Cloud City set here.

Again as usual, these are purely rumors at this time until LEGO announces something in the distant future however these are some interesting details that are hard to ignore.
