So, the folders have dissapeared. I’ve uploaded some of the pictures to flickr: http://www.flickr.com/photos/julencin2000/sets/72157606883291570/detail/

The minifigures are different, and some of the printing is different, but the main shape is there. LEGO only spends 6-12 months on set designs now instead of 2-3 years, so what we see is mainly what we will get, minus the figures.

Just look at the city sets, there are tons of new pieces and they didn’t use old pieces.

@DrHorrible – As has been said several times, these pics are of preliminary designs. For better or worse, the sets that actually go into production will be different. Preliminary shots almost always use parts that have already been in production. That’s the nature of the beast. Its also one of the reasons that I don’t judge the sets until official, production pictures come out.

That flying wing had wayyyyyyyy to many prefab parts. I mean they used the same cockpit as Anakin’s Starfighter from Episode 3. And Shorty and the gangsters don’t look like the movie characters. And the car with the flying wing looks pretty much like the Raiders cargo truck.

The roadsters look awesome! A must-have set for die hard Adventurers fans because of the cars!

Does anyone know the origin of the clone trooper with black arms and “golden” helmet in the upcoming Clone Walker Battle Pack? New torso for Darth Vader (identical to the one from #10188 Death Star)!

I think the sets will look pretty much the same, LEGO designs sets a lot quicker these days. However the minifigures always change and the first ones shown are always really funny.

And Star Wars sucks more than normal.
