TBB has posted pics of the new SW sets. Looks like some useful parts, and the return of some pretty neat figs such as the ones in the Death Star Troops set.

The new plant piece that has already been mentioned in this thread appears in at least one new SW set in olive green.

In 75037 Battle on Saleucami I see what looks like a new 1x2 curved piece in olive on the terrain piece in the upper right. Cool to see that new plant piece in olive. I see some cool swamps in the future with a mixture of those plants in various colors.

I think that slope has been in the newer Chima sets as well. http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=11477 But it's still a cool addition!

Ball and chain shows up in several of the new police sets. This seems a useful bit for dungeons.

Is that a new ball and chain as a single element or is it the same combination of parts used for the ball and chain in this 2012 Monster Fighters set: http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?S=30201-1 ?

Oh, you might be right. I had thought from the pictures that it was a single element, but it might just be a combination of the short chain and a technic ball.

The fact that almost all the police sets have the ball and chain kinda shows that they really want you to notice the new peace. and the picture just looks like a new peace.

New plant pieces in olive! Yayeah! On another note, most, if not all, the those SW sets look like rehashes of the old Episode 3 ones. Besides a couple of upgrades or changes they pretty much the same, as usual. I guess I'll just have to wait until those pieces are available in a good quantity and decent price on Bricklink...

Oh yes! Didn't see those! :D Those look awesome! I am excited for those new Olive Green pieces, a lot of them I haven't seen before.

Yeah I'm pretty sure it is new. Looks like they've molded a new part as it's featured so prominently.

And here it's a bit more distinct:

I was poking through the pictures of The LEGO Movie sets just now, and noticed something interesting - check out the handlebar mustache on Sheriff Not-a-Robot here.

Wow, you're right. Looks like it fits around the neck.

Your right! Interesting design, I don't know where I would use that in medieval times (unless it was an npu), but it looks cool! Also loving the new hairs, and what appears to be a slightly different fedora.

Those new hair pieces are cool. I love the moustache. We got some really nice, new pieces in the 2013 Chima line. I am looking forward to what those will bring in 2014. Any new piece is a good piece (well, for the most part!).

So many of these new pieces are useful, especially that ball/chain combo and some of those new plant pieces. I would have to agree with AK, however, when I say that the 'bears' look very much like slightly messed-up squirrels :wink:
