After Universe I wondered if that would be it. Im a huge SW fan and couldnt really come up with 12 more huge ideas.

Bounty Hunters has some really sweet Huges like the Skiff and the Basilisk Droid....But alot of the stuff they made seems like WotC was really reaching for ideas.

The Utapan riding the Pteradactyl creature and the Mustafarian riding the Giant Flea are both in RotS..but are only breafly shown on camera.

And the Huge Crab Draids are only seen in the Clone Wars Cartoon vol2. Only the Large sized ones are in the movies.

If there was a 3rd huge set...What the heck would be in it? I dont think there will ever be one. I think teh Starship sets will kind of fill the void left by the lack of any more huge sets.

What do you think?

I'm inclined to agree.  Unless they make Luke in a Snowspeeder, Amidala on Reek, or Sorcerer on Krayt Dragon.

I'm sure there are plenty of subjects in the RPG and the Expanded Universe ( especially Vong weapons ). I do not think we'll see another huge set next year though. However, with the new TV series and always growing selection of comics to draw from, the creators may find some huge inspiration.

Evil triumphs when good men fail their morale saves.

Aside from the Skiff and the Hoth Speeder, there isn't too much I'm looking forward to huge-wise in this set.  The big lizard thing is cool looking but not a must have for me.  I;m not sure what else they could offer in future huge sets that would interest me.

I don't think there will be more. Even if there would be enough to make another huge set, I'd say majority of them doesn't interest people enough.

List of huges & some thoughts & and guessed rarities:

ISP Speeder aka "Swamp Speeder" (Huge)(rare?)
Rebel Snowspeeder...38pts. (Huge)
Corporate Alliance Tank Droid* (Huge)
Crab Droid* (Huge)
Droid Starfighter in Walking Mode* (Huge)(Rare)
Homing Spider Droid* (Huge)
Mustafarian Flea Rider* (Huge)
Nikto Gunner on Sandskiff* (Huge)(Rare)(I hope it's not VR)
Utapaun Soldier on Dactillion* (Huge)(VR?)
Young Krayt Dragon* (Huge)
Bassilisk War Droid* (Huge)(VR)

Wait - I counted 11 huges. Aren't they all confirmed? Shouldn't there be 10? Where am I going wrong? Is swamp speeder only large? Anyway...

-4 Huges for separatists - and no AAT
- No generic speeders, fringe or no - I think they're essential to Star Wars. Swamp speeder isn't quite Generic IMHO.
-Krayt. I guess they calculated that enough people wouldn't be interested in a colossal one, but this small one looks a bit funny.
