New LEGO Death Star Leaked

[jeffrose]

I'm not going to post it here, but over on Reddit there's a thread showing the box from the new LEGO Death Star set 75159. The rumors are that this is 4016 pieces, 24 minifigures, $500 US and very similar to the last Death Star playset.

It should be the 2nd VIP set in September along with the Holiday Train.

Set: 10188-1

I've got photos myself of the full box. All I will say is that my email is bobabricks@hotmail.com

The set is quite similar to 10188, dare I say a rerelease. I'm happy Han has a new hair piece, but I was hoping for a new model. :/

The part count has been confirmed (this photo is approved on Brickset).

It's almost exactly the same with updated minifigures. I was hoping for another Death Star model (exterior), which I knew wasn't gonna happen, but I didn't expect it to be almost identical to the previous playset. Disappointed and despite being a hardcore Star Wars fan, I won't be getting it.
