Fcbarcelona101 Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 Glad that there is no mention of an AT-AT. I might need to keep one to add to this set (need to see pics first of course) I really hope that the set is on par with Ewok Village and the Sandcrawler.

ravenb99 Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 Umm 75054 didnt get the retired tag like 75055. So could always be a new box. We do like new boxes still don't we? And even if they do retire it just print some more to compliment hoth. It's only a matter of time before they try it on a few larger sets other than seasonal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fcbarcelona101 Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 I don't own a single Hoth related set (as far as my personal collection is concerned), so I am very excited about finally adding one to my collection! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

colossus Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 Considering this has been done multiple times over I'm guessing most of use would have preferred to see some other scene. Lots of us "new" folk would like a Cloud City (they did the carbon freezing after all). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All I'm going to type is, Like Kenner in the early 1980s, Lego is dropping the ball by not releasing Cloud City stuff. The Freezing Champer set is a joke gone terrible bad. So instead, we finally will get probably decent Hoth set that should be expandable or reconfigurable. Yay. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
citymorgue Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 It's all going to boil down to what exactly is included in the set. We know there is a snowspeeder, but is it going to be in the same scale as the one that just recently disappeared? I for some reason have my doubts on that. For a 2100 piece set, it would probably be smaller, and if they do include some kind of version of an AT-AT, then you can pretty much figure the rest of the set is going to be sorely lacking. I'm cautiously optimistic about it. If they can include enough detail to tell what it is without having to rely on the vehicles, then I would be ok with it. But, like others, I just have an odd feeling about this set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed Mack Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 It's going to include a lot of white bricks. Yay! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGallows Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 I know its highly unlikely but a micro scale hoth would work. Well for me it would. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The speculation at the time is the video was a preview of the set, so likely shows much of the design. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
