Tie Advance Prototype

By Gadge, in X-Wing

seems to be 'officially' what the curvy winged tie advanced is in 'rebels'

well its what disney are telling lego to call it.

Sorry if this has already been brought up

Some nice EU stuff but not a lot of 'fullsize' original trilogy stuff coming out from lego this year... perhaps they've already done em all as well.

No a bad list of sets. I'm actually really glad they decided to finally re-release a T-16 Skyhopper! I like my original one just fine but it does look a bit... primitive.

Back on topic of the game, it would be cool to see this ship and/or the pilots here. Everyone does seem largely displeaed with the Advanced so... perhaps we could see something.

I'm excited for the Stormtrooper Battle Packs and the AT-DP.

I might get the imperial transport just for the four STs. I'm a bit dissapointed it wasnt a proper scale one though as that would have been amazing.

I've four crates of lego in the attic (had a lego themed wedding), i might break em open and build my own :)

All the TIE Advanced fighters are prototypes till they are massproduced LOL In the Imperial handbook its known as the V1 Advanced while the rest are in the X series.

IM happy you posted this link. It has Shadow Guard in it. Going by LFL policy for current materials produced, only canon material, this confirms they still be canon. YOU HAVE MADE MY DAY!!!

If they are canon that means there Lightsabre LANCES ARE STILL CANON! EASILY THE COOLEST LIGHTSABRE EVER, ITS A FREAKING LANCE XD

I think the point im trying to make is that they are identifying vaders as being a 'prototype' that makes limited production whereas this is THE prototype.

Thats why it doesnt look like all the others

I absolutely love the Inquisitor's flight helmet in that set. Bought the Ghost and Phantom sets "for my kids" for Christmas. Will have to get the speeder bike set for Sabine. But why she don't come with her helmet? Disappointed.

edit- spelling

Im trying to resist buying the ghost and phantom but *everytime* i buy a lego SW kit i know il have fun building it but then it will jusy sit there and for the price of a lego b wing I could buy most of the S&V range when it comes out ... and i'd use that weekly you know?

(i have a sneaky suspicion the wife has bought me a lego A wing for xmas though!)

How badass is this Lego and why did I not have (this caliber of) it as a child?

I remember it coming out in 1999.. My fiance at the time bought me the darth vaders tie figher and Y wing set for christmas.

It was very very good even for the standards of lego 15 years ago

I stupidly sold it when i was broke and we broke up :(

I'll get the AT-DP for sure

Gonna have to tweak the legs for more poseability though

Interesting fact, the AT-DP is actually from the video game Star Wars Galactic Battlegrounds, although it has a different name I think.

Wasn't that originally one of the early concept sketches for the at-st? I'll have to check when I get home.

Wookiepedia says yes

However, it IS from SWGB

Unfortunately nothing really interests me this lineup. I was hoping for a re-vamped TIE Interceptor, not Rebels toys that I will not buy :(

Yea I wanted a revamped Y-wing.
