7877 Naboo Fighter
7879 Hoth Echo Base
7956 Ewok Attack
7957 Dathomir Speeder
7958 Advent Calendar
7959 Geonosian Fighter
7961 Darth Maul's Sith Infiltrator
7962 Anakin and Sebulba Podracers
7964 Republic Frigate
7965 Millenium Falcon

I just wish they would rerelease some Cloud City sets

Has there been any more info on some of these sets?  I actually had some gift card to burn at WM due to some Christmas returns, so I picked up the Landspeeder set, and I'm dangerously close to being hooked on these.  I might continue to pick up an OT set here and there when I can afford it, but honestly, the holy grail for me would be a Falcon set.  If that is indeed coming this year, I better start saving now :).

I have to say, this Landspeeder set was the first "true" LEGO set I have bought (aside from the MIDI scale Falcon at WM last year), and I really enjoyed it.  Nothing too difficult of course, but it was a fun little project for our daughter (who put together the "people") and I.  Wouldn't mind getting a few more sets, but I can see how they would get addicting.

If you page through this link

You can see most of them but the quality isn't the best, you'll probably have to wait for EuroToyFair

Brian - tread lightly.....Seriously.  I've avoided LEGO ANYTHING since I got back into collecting SW Hasbro stuff in 01.  Didn't get hooked on LEGO until a few years ago when I found (I think I've said this before) a UCS Batmobile on clearance for $17ish.  I've picked up 70+ sets since then and there is indeed a new Falcon coming this year, but I'm going to stick to my rule of only 1. 

Very expensive habit, but at least you can make a few bucks if not more down the road (I'm not in this hobby to make money, but this is where you should be unless you're into stocks for toys)

Jesse James:
I think Lego's a different egg over Hasbro stuff iFett, so mentioning making a buck down the road isn't a horrible thing.  Lego's are widely available, usually good sales...  People have ample chanes at getting them usually, and it just happens to be one hobby that holds its value and then some.

I've even contemplated selling my SW Lego collection for a profit.  I have like 5 B-Wings, 5 A-Wings, 3 Y-Wing/Vader TIE sets, 5 TIE Fighters...  I quit collecting after the TIE Fighter came out at some point, but I still pick up a mini-fig set now and then just to get like the Hoth rebel or whatnot.

Love Legos, hate the price, wish I could afford to have a full set around of them though. :)
