Thanks to German Toystore Spielwaren-Hegmannl we got a look at some of Lego’s releases for their Star Wars sets in 2012.
I already know of which sets I’ll buy a dozen.
9488
Battle pack
Elite Clone Trooper and Commando droid
.
New:
ARC Trooper
ARF Trooper
Commando Droid
.
I am not into buying Clone Wars sets, however awesome the animation series is, So i’ll let this one pass.
9889
Endor Battlepack
Rebel Trooper & Imperial Trooper
.
New:
Rebel Trooper
.
This is a nice army builder set. With al the Endor sets Lego already produced, you could make a cool diarama.
9490
Droid Escape
.
New:
C-3PO
Sandtroopers
.
Great set! You would buy it for the new C-3PO. Although the crome one stays my favotite.
I like the new Sandtroopers, Especially the printed legs. I’m not sure about the dirt print, however.
9492
Tie Fighter
.
New:
Imperial Death Star Trooper
R5-J2
.
A new R-droid always makes me buy a set.
I am not yet convinced about the new design. But it’s a buy for me.
9493
X-Wing Fighter
.
New:
Jek Porkins
R5-D8
.
Another new droid, another buy. The new X-wing design hasn’t changed much since it’s last design, except for a few minor details. I still seen MOCs far better then this version.
9494
Anakin’s Jedi Interceptor
.
New:
Anakin Skywalker
Obi Wan Kenobi
Nute Gunray
.
I love the Jedi Interceptors. I like the new designs on the minifigures, especially Obi Wan. I should have give Anakin the same hair as Prince Kaspan for Prince of Persia. I see Nute changed his skin tone.
9495
Gold Leader’s Y-Wing
.
New:
Princess Leia
Gold Laader
R5-F7
.
Another interpertation of the classic Y-wing. A new design, not better or lesser than the previous one. Just… different. Maybe more detailed, I’ll buy this one, I love the classic ships and off-course for the R5 unit.
I yet have bought some 2011 sets, I’m already excited for 2012. Escpecially for the Queen Amidala minfig showed at this year’s San Diego Comic Con.
