There was a roundtable interview with the LEGO Designer Hans Burkhard Schlömer who is behind the upcoming LEGO Star Wars Ultimate Collectors Series Republic Gunship.
What we were able to glean from the interview is that it will definitely be released this year and that there will be no Jedi Bob in this iteration.
But the tidbit that gave us the most information was that the set will include two 10x4x3 cockpit elements “positioned end-to-end” which if we extrapolated would mean that the entire model would be anywhere between 50 – 55cm long.
The piece count was not revealed but Hans did mention that the model would take up a “small coffee table” to display so it is quite substantial in size.
I’m pretty sure we’ll be hearing a lot more information in the coming weeks as May the 4th is just a couple of months away.
