Well, i just took a gander at the latests sets which are already sold out. shop.lego.com/en-US/Star-Wars-The-Last-Jedi-Sets?CMP=EMC-VIP2017_09_01_ForceFriday_EN+_US&HQS=50_a_img_NA_EN&RMID=SAHVIP_2017_09_01_ForceFriday_NA&RRID=133378310I hate to be a hater and i dont like thread crapping, BUT i have to be real here And being real is going to come wth consequences. I know that... Having said that.... IMHO, the vehicle design failed me so hard...they look like after thoughts, just arbitrary shapes just put togather by a 8 year olds. No offense to 8 olds. What the hell happened to the AT AT's front feet?? I dont care what they call this iteration. The walker doesnt even have legs? WTF!? There are so many talented entertainment designers out there who will work for next to nothing. Let me know what you guys think. I am kind of glad they look like cat crap , so maybe if i save long enough i can get the ultimate Falcon for $800. It could happen.

Agree, the designers are just plain lazy and based their designs on the original trilogy. I dont see any breakthrough in designs even though the force awakens happens some 30-40 years after episode 6?
I have preordered the falcon but i guess i will have to wait a bit for it. What i am really glad is i sold my original limited edition 10179 back when it have a little bit more value than now.

Sigh...im so glad im not crazy or alone thinking this way. I am in the hate mode lately, and unfortunately The Last Jedi vehicle desgn was my target. It is what it is. it seems general public and fans dont seem to mind as much, as the new lego sets are apparently selling very well. But still, for someone who takes aesthetics bit more seriously its just maddening how these vehicle design continue to get through the green light process. Just piss me off...and i been waiting so patiently waiting for all new AT-AT set and THAT's what i get? Where's AT-ACT? I dont want The Last Jedi At At! Wah!! Sorry, talk about ranting.. It looks so ....."weird...wrong...jacked....like a same catagory as really foul smelling animal excrement..." Just awful....look at the front paws? What the hell happened to them? That's a thinking Design? WTF! why and how does this designer working in this field? He/she should be prohibited ever touching ANY movie license ever...at least not in MY ideal world.

just saw the new AT-AT lego set up close and personal yesterday, the design is hedious! i think why it is selling so well now its probably the younger generation who have not seen the original trilogy.
