However, it appeared quite little in the film, and could have been done earlier. As a starfighter, it doesn't seem what we've come to expect. Also, proportions seem quite off, judging from my source material. Not on my wish list. |

STAR WARS LEGO 2007 Sets---sneak peek For January 31st 2007 release Source: [Forbidden Planet] Go here for the PICS! 17/9/06
An information leak or an official tip? We don't know. All we know is: this is cool insider stuff, and thanks to ForbiddenPlanet, we are given a sneak peek at next year's Lego Star Wars line-up. Thrilling.
Everything in "J'e early verdict" represents the author's original opinion. As such, please don't sue. Since the info has leaked out elsewhere on the net, I thought we'd best do it too.
Clone Trooper Battle Pack D4435
J’s early verdict: This looks like what the fans have been wanting all the while: an affordable way to build your army. As a "battle pack", this sure packs some battle!

General Grievous Starfighter D4436

Y-Wing Fighter D4438

Imperial Landing Craft D4439
J’s early verdict: An unexpected but interesting addition to the line-up and slightly off-scale, but detailed for its size and with excellent minifigs, plus some spiffy new-mould blasters.
