Yeah, i'm all squnting to look at that little Anakin figure on the box! I'd totally consider a clear picture of that figure to be a good interpretation of how he'll really look post-duel pre-helmet. I hope somebody gets that soon! :)

I'm squinting too... is that Anakin's left hand, visible in the pic?

It might not mean anything in terms of the actual film, but does that mean he actually does have a fleshy left hand after the duel?

(Not suggesting lego playsets are canon, of course... lol)

The Droid Trifighters soar into battle against the Jedi Knights! Can the Jedi's starships escape the devastating saws of the Buzz Droids hidden inside?

I remember that image of a charred Haden awhile back, it looked like part of his face went uncharred.

I'm guessing Anakin falls into a pit, but saves himself from totally going into the lava by holding onto the edge of the pit with his left hand/arm, with his face just staying above...It's such a stretch in reality anyone could survive lava...but SW is suspension of disbelief, I hope it's pulled off well.

Here's hoping he loses the limbs from the volcanic swan dive and doesn't hop around like the Black Knight.

Those Tri-Fighters look alot like the claw TIE-Fighters, is George giving a not to the EU or is it just the limitations of the legos.

George has some seriously strange shit in this movie, if Obi fighting Greivous on a lizard is any indication... or Yoda on a dragonfly.

I've seen the Wookie catamaran... What ever happened to basic shit like the Ewok catapult?

EDIT: I'd love to be seeing some of the finished images the people at Lego are seeing.

You know, in some ways, I think first seeing these scenes rendered in Lego is more damaging to my perception of the film than any number of leaked stills. Next May I'm going to watch Obi-Wan and Grievous have a saber duel from droid- and lizard-back, and I know I'll be thinking "Lego!"

The newest insider called the vehicles the wookies use as dragonfly's, so maybe that is what Yoda is riding on.


You mean Flying instead of Riding... :lol:

But what the hell is up with the cobbled together speeder? It's a bit odd for a SW design.

It´s a Barc Speeder, think a bigger version of the Speeder Bike. Used for reconnaissance, I think.

And why is there a deployable (Hoth-looking) Turret inside the Tank?

Because the Juggernauts, like the AT-ATs, can carry smaller vehicles or guns. :cool:
