on that 9496 skiff, there's no way that a clone wars pirate, Weequay, is in there. or is there? i don't know the CW stuff.

he's got to be a placeholder for the mostly blind han.

The Weequay character appeared in Return of the Jedi on a skiff long before clone wars ever happened. So, it's entirely probable that it's a Weequary figure (and I would be actually pretty happy about that).

I'm in for all of it, except for the gungan sub. Not my style. Looking forward to Jabba's palace though.

I have to agree. I remember Lego making instructions for the Malevolence out of multiple sets which looked awesome. I just didn't want to spend the money on all the sets.

I subscribed to the guy, because he said he was going to upload other themes, such as City, Creator Technic, Ninjago... etc, later on in the day. I hope I can see them before these videos get blocked.

LEGO 9500 Fury Class Interceptor (3 minifigures)

This set is from the new MMORPG Star Wars: The Old Republic. The Fury Class Interceptor is the Sith Warrior's ship in the game.

I think LEGO 9497 Republic Striker Starfighter (3 minifigures) might also be from the game too but I'm not 100% positive.

I have to admit, that face on the advent calendar looks very creepy...

I love the new Malevolence! The others look OK.

The Maul face on all the boxes looks creepy. After the last two years of amazing box design with the Rex/lightning theme, I'll be glad to take a break hunting nice boxes because the Maul design is a big turn off.

Also, not too interested in most of these sets, but really glad to finally be getting S. Crumb!

Does it look like Porkins is the pilot included in the Yavin 4 set?

ncbarrett. why does the picture of your posted Malevolence look different from the released picture of the actual Lego product? Parts of the ship don't seem to match
