Personally, I don't think they'll do the TIE interceptor, but I think they
should do a TIE bomber.  That would be sweet.
Sandcrawler?  I don't think so.
AT-AT...I hope so, I really hope so.  And I hope they make it HUGE.  Not
like the wimpy AT-ST they made.  I know people say they made it small and
cheap so people could afford it, or whatever.  But I think now that they've
done that, they OWE us (us as Lego Star Wars fans) an amazing AT-AT.
They're are many excellent MOC's out there of AT-AT's, so it is possible to
do a really cool AT-AT.  Maybe even more expensive that $90-120, would be
cool.  Actually, I didn't think that they'd make the Millenium Falcon, due
to the cost that it would be.  But I was wrong...but that was when the Star
Wars Lego Line first came out, before they introduced UCS.
Cloud Car would be cool too, but I don't think they'll do a Sail Barge or
Skyhopper.  Hopefully they'll come out with some set that will be a easy way
to get Stormtroopers, or any other kind of Trooper that they want to release.
I was also recently thinking that they are running out of vehicles from the
classic Star Wars.  I'd like to see 'play set' type sets too, like a Star
Destroyer Bridge or something.  More imperials!!

Trilogy, and I was realising that TLC is almost out of major vehicles!  Forget
speculation about what they *might* do next, what's left to do?

*TIE Interceptor
*TIE Bomber

I doubt they'll release these in the same year, though.

*Sandcrawler

This would have to be so big, I can't imagine them making a set for it.  I
mean, few people would recognise it!

*AT-AT

I personally think this could be done for a $90-$120 price point.

*Jabba's Barge

Now we're really stretching, but they did do the Skiff, so why not?

*T-16 Skyhopper

Never even on film- seems unlikely

*Sandtroopers with Dewback

Uh.  The Dewback would end up being a Kaadu-like guy, but it might be cool.
Definitely good for getting lots of Stormtroopers.

*Han and Luke on Tauntauns

Gungan patrol part 2, seems likely.

*Cloud Car

Mmmm, or-ange.

Am I forgetting anything?  This is all I can come up with that is even remotely
possible.  Keep in mind, though, I'm talking Classic Trilogy and System sets,
here.  I left out anything that seemed way too big for TLC to bother (Star
Destroyers, Tantive IV, Mon Cal Cruisers, etc)

Any thoughts?  Agree/disagree?
