Cool! Looking forward to 75136 Droid Escape Pod.
I like making custom Lego Astromech Droids as well as collecting the official ones, so I can see my Lego LEGO.com cart filling up with several Droid Escape Pods. ;)
another escape pod so soon :/ I think only the battle pack interests me there.... but of course the force awakens sets will change that :D
I'm happy about the mini-Ghost with Hera.
All of a sudden I'm not so mad about another droid escape pod. The inclusion of two jawas makes the whole thing worth it.
The ones I am interested in are: Star Wars Battlefront Battlepacks and Droid Escape.
Having seen the photos before they were taken down, I'm really looking forwards to the SW Battlefront BP's (LOVE the rebels one!) But the others don't appeal to me- though I may get a DE or two for the Jawas. :) (I'd probably sell off the rest of the set).
The Cloud City set is waaay too small and I don't care for it.
The Interceptor is meh. I do have most of the Delta Jedi Starfighters, but don't really care for the interceptors.
I must say though, I haven't seen photos of the Force Awakens sets, so can't share my opinions on those. As a Battle Pack collector, I'll probably get the FA BP's.
Intrigued by the 'battle pack.' Could this just be one of many for next year?
I'm lovin this new stuff! Can't wait! Anyone seen rumors for 2017? I know it's early, but still...
Yes, more Jawas!
Hooray for Jawas outside a Sandcrawler! Between that and the updated Tusken Raider from the T-16, Lego is being very generous with the cheap Tatooine denizens recently. Now if only we could get a Mos Eisley booster pack, we'd be all set.
Droid Escape Pod, oooooohhhh yeeaaaahhh. Finally we can easily get a "classic" C-3PO without taking out a mortgage to buy one through E-Bay, TradeMe, Amazon, Bricklink, ....
more battlepacks are always welcome. these going to be a new design for the stormtroopers or are they using the one they introduced for the Rebels sets?
^The stormtroopers in the battle packs are based off Star Wars Battlefront (2015). They are similar to the ones released in the Star Destroyer last year but are dirty like the Tatooine stormtroopers.
Gonna get me some Jawas!
Jawas! Ugnaughts! Woo hoo!
@EmmetBrickowski: There will be four total Battlepacks- two Battlefront ones and two TFA ones. :) I don't know about the TFA ones, but I have seen photos of both the battlefront ones. You (I assume) read the description for the empire battlepack, there is also a rebel one, which looks awesome. :)
Seeing the leaks earlier, some of these are decent. But I agree, the Carbon Freezing Chamber was tiny. Only selling point is the figures and even then, they can mostly be had elsewhere...
Otherwise, another Hera will be welcome (even if it is the same as before). Jawas are always welcome.
I don't understand about the classic C3PO that was mentioned in the comments. Has there been more than what was out in previous Droid Escape or Landspeeder? are those not considered classic? I'm confused.
Nice to see Obi-Wan's red Jedi Interceptor finally FINALLY available again! Lego only ever made one of them and it was part of that special hard-to-get Ultimate Space Battle bundle set released way back in 2005!

How many Escape Pods does a man need? 3 already, and no Cloud Car redesign, no TIE Interceptor or Bomber in sight..
That was my first thought as well yamaki. The escape pod is hardly that exciting that we need yet another version of it surely.
