CapnRex101 is on a roll with these reveals!

Cool, but 40% overpriced. Geez

$170 for 1022 pieces? Hard pass

that AT-TE looks really damn small and the justifier really damn big. I feel like the 2 price points should have been swapped.

Now people can shut up about Phase 2 Commander Cody

Ooooo Justifier looks great, bit higher price than I’d like but that’s just to be expected every set now.

I wonder how Lego will justify the price of the Justifier.

Cody looks very nice (despite being a mix of animated and live-action clones like all the recent ones) but the new holes on the phase 2 helmet don't look good at all. Wish they only used that helmet for Cody and maybe later for Rex. Even then, Rex's antenna should be attached to the existing circular protrusions on the helmet.

AT-TE is a must, the Justifier... is not. Hilarious that the $30 cheaper one has more minifigurers and pieces.

Like the posing that looks possible with the AT-TE, putting the mid leg forward or back. Minor forward titl may be possible, though I doubt it. Not a terrible price either, when compared with 75157.

Both feels like so low value for money. :’/

Why would the justifier $30 more expensive yet has fewer pieces than the AT-TE...not to mention the AT-TE is more attractive to me and is a more iconic vehicle, and has more minifigs too, and good for building an army. I know the justifier has some unique figs, but still...Even the AT-TE is overpriced, but 1000 pieces for $170? That's a new high even for SW...

They look OK-ish...but those prices are ridiculous. Cad Bane's Justifier is NOT worth 170€. Not by a long shot.

But now at least people can stop whining about "Phase 2 Cody"...
...although I'm sure they'll immediately come up with something else to start throwing tantrums about ahahahah.

Ok, this is the AT-TE that I’ve been waiting for! Lots of clones, and the right kind of variety. Several plane, one commander, and a pilot. I love both of these. I hope we get another set with Cad Bane based on BoBF.

I'm not complaining. Happy to ignore the Justifier for the AT-TE.
Can't wait till Brickset gets one for review and we can get a detailed comparison to the previous version.

Was thinking the same thing, Don't know what the Australian price is yet but based in the USD price, they will be about $200-$230 probably which seems a lot for the size????? Will have to see as they both look really good!

We're on a roll with the insulting Lego Star Wars prices this year. The ride never stops.

Why, in the behind-the-scenes look, was the color palette on the desk blurred out? As for the sets themselves, "The Justifier [of these Prices]" is a hilarious title.

The 212th troopers and Commander Cody are nice. I'm glad the AT-TE can actually carry troops this time. The Justifier is very meh, especially for that price and PPP. Props to those Bad Batch/Cad Bane fans who want it, though.

1022 pieces for $170? Ballsy move.

1000 pcs for 170 EUR. Funny when you consider the price for Modular Houses range.....

So.... the AT-TE has more minfigs, more bricks and cheaper than the Justifier?? Thats crazy Lego!!

Justifier - Mini figures makes it more expensive - CAD Bane I guess

Disney tax and some!!

Odd choice to have a TCW Ahsoka 501st Trooper on an Episode III 212th Clone set's packaging.

The designers can sit there and talk about how great their sets are at LEGO CON, but they HAVE to know how overpriced The Justifier is... and with only 4 figs.

"Man I am just glad cw fans cant complain about not receiving sets and ESPECIALLY no more complaining about Cody."

You do realize that neither of these are from CW right?

The AT-TE is definitely way better bang for the buck. They probably should have revealed this stuff first, the Castle and Space sets killed em

That's a lot of money for a Fennec Shand helmet.

Anyone else here excited to see Phase II clone helmets with accessory holes in them?

Justifier looks amazing, but that price is awful. AT-TE has an okay price but it looks squished, like that 2010 AT-AT with less than 800 parts.

Ugh, the Justifier looks like a Lego set from 2008.

Why is the $170 set more expensive when it comes with less figures and pieces than the $140 set? That doesn't add up.

Wow, these latest Star Wars sets (with the exception of the duel) are all tightly and well designed.

BUT AGAIN; those prices are absolutley atrocious.

There really isn't anything to justify (pun not intended) that huge size of the Justifier. It's a very niche vehicle. It could have well been the same size and price as Thanos' Sanctuary ship.
Lego seems to be making more and more large and expensive sets, leaving gaps in the lower price segment.

Ouch, while both 75323 and 75337 seems like quite good sets (never mind the price) but 10305 and 10497 absolutely blow them out of the water. Another masterstroke by TLG to come around to Star Wars sets toward the end of the event...

I got back into Lego because of the Star Wars theme a little less than ten years ago but find that I am increasingly drawn toward other themes due to the often vastly superior combination of set design, price and - for lack of a better word - pure enjoyment factor of many other themes.

While both 75335 and 75336 look both interesting and good value for a present day Star Wars set I am unsure of whether I will buy them before many other sets from other themes.

Maybe I don't get something. I understand inflation and all, but previous AT-TE was praised at $90. If you compare the two, the design is largely the same. The new one is priced at $140. Really? That's similarly sized AT-TE, Umbaran MHC, and you still have $10 to spare in 2013.

I could be wrong, but is the Justifier a new high mark for price point on a “regular” retail Star Wars set? I don’t think we’ve seen higher than $160 to this point.

Regardless, it looks like the price increases that were reported on recently are hitting the SW theme. I can think of no other reason that would explain these prices. Both are must-buys for me, but I’ll be waiting for some discounts.

Last I checked the at te, clones and commander cody were all in the Clone Wars animated series as well as Episode 3, no?"

Yes but this set is specifically based on episode 3.

Yes, but the set is based on Ep 3, and not CW. So while it’s technically from both, it still would be nice to get some CW sets.

the justifier should be $100 and the at te $70

The price for the Star Wars sets is really getting out of hand. We're now getting close to the 200€ mark for a regular set that is basically another lump of gray plastic with very little usable space.

I guess I'm just going to be way more selective when it comes to Star Wars sets from now on...

@MainBricker said:
"Why isn't it called "Cad Bane's Starship"?"

Because it doesn't have a problematic name.

Is it just me or does the AT-TE looks just like almost every version of it? I was expecting new details but so far looks just the same.
I love the innovative techniques we can see in the Justifier like those angular wings

It's sobering to see how we adapt to these price increases. Many above mention how the AT-TE Walker looks decent in price in comparison with the Justifier, while it is clearly already overpriced itself. That's probably even the aim of the LEGO Group. And it seems to somehow work. Well played, well played...

The 2013 set has around 300 fewer parts than the new one. The inflation adjusted price for the 2013 set is $112. The new set has 20% more parts and costs around 27% more in the US. Some of the increase in price can probably be correlated with the increased Minifigure count. It’s still higher-priced than I’d like it to be, but it’s not egregious in my opinion.

how did that even work ?"
Those who would get it for minifigs will get it anyway, everyone else can now say that "at least it's not as overpriced as Justifier" for every other SW set released this year. Win-win for LEGO.

Hey UM guys Lego has Not given US the REAL FANS what we really want, and that is Commander Giggle Bush of the 420th Legion! HE appears for two seconds in The Clone Wars Season 5, and is the MOST crucial character in the entire STAR WARS Saga. Go TELL LEGO NOW we need him, and don't forget to smash that like and subscribe button below!

Seriously though, I love the Cody figure; and the sets look cool... but $170 for The Justifier? Starting to think it may be time to give up on Lego Star Wars and find a new hobby with that kind of price tag.

These two sets reveal the absolute joke that is LEGO/Disney Star Wars Pricing.

These two sets have almost the EXACT SAME piece count, yet are arbitrarily priced at $140 and $170. AT-TE technically has more pieces and more minifigs, yet is priced $30 lower than Justifier for no apparent reason.

Looks like some Disney executives were sitting in a boardroom throwing darts at a wall for prices..

Is this some kind of stress test for exactly how much Star Wars fans are willing to pay for grey colored lumps with a couple of desirable minifigures??

That’s straight up BS. The Justifier is ridiculously overpriced. But when you throw in those minifigs….that’s how you attempt to justify the garbage price. Hopefully it shows up at Costco.

I agree with everything you said.

I'm shocked that these prices are not inverted. Usually, Lego tags us for the iconic sets from the movies they know many of us want (and probably want duplicates), like the AT-TE. They usually give us a break with sets from the animated or lower-budget, more-obscure series (e.g., Kenobi and the Scythe).

This doesn't make much sense, especially since Fennic and Hunter are duplicates. Th Unjustifier is looking to replicate the expensive failures of 75315 and 75286. I will definitely wait for a massive discount on the Unjustifier.

The AT-TE, on the other hand, is value-priced by comparison. Yet, it is an expensive army-builder remake with little difference from 75019. Perhaps that is why it's not $160?

As others have said these prices seem inverted. I feel Lego massively over estimates the "truly hardcore" Star Wars fanbase. No casual fan wants a small 1002 pc Justifier for that price, and probably 1/2 of them wouldn't even know what it is! Glad the AT TE price stayed the same as expected!

I wonder if Lego will actually include extra hair pieces for Hunter and Fennec Shand. If they want to charge 170, there at least shouldn't be silly compromises like missing hair pieces.

"Lack gesoffen!""

"Wir haben eure Beschwerden über die unverständlichen Preise zur Kenntnis genommen. Dementsprechend wird der Preis des AT-TE nun auf 200€ erhöht."

I was looking forward to the Justifier cos I thought it would be a cheaper way to get Fennec with the helmet, but shockingly it’s MORE expensive the the Imperial Light Cruiser.

I really like the Justifier, just not the price - seems out of whack, and the AT-TE was always an afterthought to me (just not a SW vehicle I particularly like), but nice set for those who do.

Glad to see Phase 2 Cody, it will make a lot of people who love mini figures and SW happy - and honestly, the fact that its included doesn't hurt anyone, so not sure why people need to be quite so arrogant about its inclusion with the "shut up comments" - bit sad really.

Don’t waste your time being annoyed by the “fans” who come here to hear themselves whine. Some people are just built to complain. Lego continues to keep making amazing sets despite their tears and tantrums. It just shows there are many, many more people buying and enjoying these sets than there are people who come here to cry and yell.

How is it that people who supposedly detest negativity so much are the absolute nastiest sounding of the lot?.....

Because they are simply trolls without anything better to do.

Analyzing, critiquing, and offering opinions about new Lego sets is precisely why this site exists with comment sections. I too long for the days when things were much more positive. However, I fail to see how that is realistically possible with Lego's current operating strategy. Complaining about complaining doesn't make anything better.
