Possible 2018 Standalone CCBS/Constraction Theme?

Hah!

Star Wars has six whole movies and two shows worth of material, plus whatever new stuff is coming out. Sets we could get/could have gotten include

battle droids
Dooku
Cassian and Bohdi (in the Rogue one wave)
Krennic (also in Rogue One)
Mace windu
Han
Leia
C-3PO
Palpatine
Darth Maul
other clone trooper variants
New Trilogy Luke
Yoda (is there a reason why SWC can’t have small sets?)
R2-D2
Jar-Jar*

And that’s just what I could think of off-hand. You get the idea.

*sadly, this’ll likely never happen; Jar Jar could be an interesting set. I could see it including tan protector feet, for example.

This would be awesome. I’d love a CCBS Battle Droid to go with my Grievous.

The only thing I can think of with that title is some combo of Volt+Electro+Orb
So if there is any sort of legitimacy to the name, they probably got it slightly warped or something
But yeah, it’s rather dubious at best.

Unfortunately, and bizarrely, a wealth of actual characters in Star Wars doesn’t translate to a long - running SWC theme. So far, we’ve seen lots of humanoid folks dressed in black. Man, I do agree that these would be great, though.

I think he might have been joking, actually. If so, nice one, you (somehow) fooled everyone.

It’s can be possible that if there’s is a 2018 CCBS/Constraction Theme than maybe it’s name could be false and it’s actually name is something more surprising.

And I got one. Thanks though; it was an issue of who told him, so to speak.

That name is so horrendously fake and made-up on the spot.

C’mon guys. Do you really think Lego has lost all of it’s imagination and clever ideas? Lego would be far more intuitive and smart with a name. “Voloctoreb” doesn’t roll off the tongue very well. It sounds like a name a young BIONICLE fan would make for a character, not something a extremely huge toy company would make.

Sorry, Tenion, but I’m honestly not believing your story unless you provide me a source.

So, I’m not Tenion, but the impression that I got is that he didn’t totally believe it either, if at all.

Do you really want me to answer that?

I guess you could argue they sorta are, but I don’t think the point where they’d make a name like “Voloctoreb.”

True. Like I said, the name is probably either garbled or outright false, and the latter seems far more likely at this point.

I’ve been trying to sidestep around saying that it’s outright false, but I’ll say it now, straight up: I’m 99% sure it is. I was hoping to not offend the person who is the source, honestly, but you have to do what you have to do.

If they’re so confident, they wouldn’t be offended. I just think this claim is complete rubbish.

At least the original “leak” (we have no confirmation that it is true) had some realism behind it.

Not sure why you would assume that they are “so confident”…

I am typically discussing rumors with a number of people, ranging from confirmed leakers to wannabe fans. I listen to everyone, but I only share and endorse the plausible. That’s my piece.

What I mean is, if they believe this is a legit leak. That’s what I mean by confidence.

Ah, alright. Regardless, I respectfully disagree here. Plenty of people genuinely believe in “leaks” that are likely, or clearly, false; many of those folks would get offended if told that they were obviously, blatantly mistaken.

EDIT: Heck, this is great. On the off chance that someone searches for a voloctoreb…
