When I was in 7th grade I made the scene with the apes from 2001 out of LEGOs for an English project.

Re: Star Wars LEGOs
I think all the sets that have been mentioned in this thread thus far have been released. I have really high quality pictures of a bunch of them, but so does lego.com, so I won't bother reposting them. Bare bones stuff is this:
[*]They did a fabulous job with the Inquisitor. Really did him justice. Three new molds, just for this one figure.
[*]I saw the Slave I IRL in the LEGO store in Copenhagen, and it looks awesome.
[*]I like the AT-DP but they totally botched Kallus's Bo-rifle, in exactly the same way they botched Zeb's. I don't have an explanation for this.
[*]The new AAT and battle droid carrier sets are designed to fit with the new MTT. The new MTT is garbage. The new AAT is garbage (almost exactly half the size it needed to be, and almost exactly half the size of the previous one). The new battle droid carrier is a perfectly fine build but a useless, unnecessary set. I also find it hilarious that, if you discount the STAP pilot, the smaller battle droid carrier comes with exactly twice as many droids as the larger MTT. It's an absolute disgrace, and whoever OK'd it should be fired. They needed a new carrier because the old one was designed to accommodate the droid racks used in the old MTT, and the new MTT uses smaller racks, so they needed a new droid carrier. In the process it became both smaller and less accurate, not to mention being a duplicate of a vehicle that barely appears in the movies. The AAT is similarly crap, and incredibly disappointing given that we haven't had an Episode 1 AAT since 2000.
[*]The clone lieutenant in the Hailfire droid set is just a stock lieutenant. Disappointing, but not unreasonable given that the previous one was a polybag figure. I'm not surprised by that.
[*]The Azure Angel's description very carefully avoided saying 'Azure Angel', but you can hear them thinking it.
[*]I'm told that the background art for the Shadowtroopers battlepack is actually from The Force Unleashed. I haven't played enough of that to confirm, but either way that's everything I hoped it would be.
[*]They finally released Sabine, but without a helmet. I can't imagine how they justified releasing a Mando without a helmet, but the whole deal with her being the only member of the crew that didn't make it into the first wave has been discussed to death already without going on about them doing a poor job of her even now.
And so, we move on to news! Partial and preliminary list of sets for the summer wave:
75091 Flash Speeder
75092 Naboo Starfighter
75093 Death Star Final Duel
75094 Imperial Shuttle Tydirium
75106 Imperial Assault Carrier
The Imperial Assault Carrier is a big set, so it looks like that's probably the Gozanti-class cruiser that's been showing up in Rebels. I'm excited for the Flash speeder, but man, do we really need another Naboo starfighter? That's got to be the least interesting vehicle that's been made four times, right up there with the snowspeeder. We just got a new N-1 in 2011; surely that spot could have been better used for something new. The last TIE Interceptor was in 2006, and the TIE Bomber was in 2003. Both of those could use a remake in the light grey color scheme of the TIE Defender and the newer TIE Fighter and TIE Advanced sets. The Death Star Final Duel could be cool but has been done before. An Imperial shuttle would be nice, as I don't have one (missed the UCS one back in 2010), so we'll see how that goes. There seem to be at least 7 other set numbers set aside for Star Wars, so more news and pictures should roll around towards the end of January as we start hitting the big toy fairs.

Re: Star Wars LEGOs
A great figure, even if they do have him listed as 'Admiral' rather than whatever his rank is in the ISB. Also, I can think of one other person who wears a white Imperial uniform...
