If these schmoes have the nerve to show their faces at SDCC, someone please ask us where the hell the rest of the dwarves, Beorn, the Bard, and $%^&* Smaug are.

Seriously, if Super 7 can find a way to get those playsets out, and that Kickstarter campaign for the Chthulu figures was such a runaway success, there is no way they can't find a way to get these into our hands.

 

The figures packed with these vehicles reminds me far more of the Costco exclusive pieces we've seen in recent years.  Like the Avengers Quinjet packed with repainted versions of Iron Man and Captain America.

But as for actual Class I vehicles?  I'm hoping for speeder bikes with figures.  Like the ones we saw in the new REBELS trailer that just premiered this week.

The Hollywood Reporter has a story up now about a new Lonely Mountain set coming later this year - looks pretty good...



Here is the link to their story: http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/heat-vision/comic-con-lego-unveil-smaug-720681

Seems like a bit much for $130, but it looks like they've cut off part of the set for the picture, so it's hard to tell...

Nice!  Glad to see some new ships finally coming out.  I think this has been a huge whole in the product line for the past couple of years.

I can't imagine being a kid and being all that excited about a toy line that didn't offer interesting vehicles.

I can still remember my first vehicle as a kid - the landspeeder.  It was all kinds of awesome just to zoom that thing around the living room with Luke and the droids, or maybe even Darth Vader and a Tusken Raider riding shotgun.

Anyone else reading into things, perhaps a little too much maybe, at the last few bits of that article? 

BTW his mouth moves?  That's pretty friggin' awesome actually.
