9500 Sith Fury-Class Interceptor

9500 Sith Fury-Class Interceptor

I prefer to announce the color to you right away, out of the question to take me another formal notice from the LEGO law firm for some supposedly confidential images when we have already seen these sets at the Nuremberg Toy Fair . 

So here's the info: A nice German dealer left his 2012 catalog hanging out again and broke his NDA (Non Disclosure Agreement) by allowing the dissemination of the latest visuals of the novelties of the second wave 2012.

Note that these visuals date from before the last Toy Fair in London and Nuremberg and that the sets presented there are therefore preliminary versions prior to what we have seen in recent days. 

Click on these images which are not confidential to access the visuals if they are still available, the guy who posted them on flickr seems to have already given in to the pressure and deleted them.

I reiterate that Hoth Bricks does not host these preliminary images, no need to spam me or run and report me ....

9498 Saesee Tiin's Starfighter & 9500 Sith Fury-Class Interceptor Minifigs 

Be careful, these minifigs are obviously ultra-preliminary versions used to illustrate the visuals of the retailer catalog in question. Darth Malgus is just a vague collection of generic elements. The final minifigure will probably be a little more elaborate ... The Sith Trooper is also a hack except perhaps the helmet which promises to be epic ...
