Anyone getting this?
My favorite rock is piss and shit rock from the new hobbit set.
>>11127410What do you do to help your son to become a builder?
>>11127413Not bad, but I would rather hold on to the Black Friday
>>11127421How old? I actually might be able to help.
>>11127422Probably a good idea but I’d like it for Halloween.
>>11127410Fuck you
>>11127410Based OP pic. Nexo Knights rock season was a gem.
>>11127422Depending on age, ask the kid to pass you certain parts while building and get used to following instructions. Meet the kid where he’s at. His interests may overlap with yours but will be different, the more you try to push a theme the more he’ll reject it. Let his interests guide what you build and buy. Accept that you’re going to be losing bricks, breaking bricks, getting them taken apart by good old faithful incisors, and sets are never going to be 100% again. All of that’s okay but it drives the average afol up the wall. Go on fb marketplace and get a mindstorms nxt for $50 or so. Don’t pay more than $60 for an original nxt and get the rechargeable battery pack if you can. There are still a ton of instructions and programs for robits online and it’s a great way to teach engineering and basic object oriented computer skills. Play well and have fun. If you’re getting upset about playing with plastic bricks you’re doing it wrong.
>>11127413uh...no?It just has a skeleton and an eye.all other stuff is an ugly house(barn?) build and a nice autumn tree.I wont be displaying it and it dont have that much cool stuff to spend money for.I have a bunch of skeletons and that eye from dreamzzz set.
>>11127441Fair enough assessment and you’re probably right fren. I just like new spooky stuff.
>>11127413>that batdidnt know they still producing such bat molds?
>>11127424Generally speaking, I’m expecting him in 4 months and I am thinking to engage with him with this instead of sticking his ass to an iPad 24/7
>>11127446Maybe I am mistaken but wasn’t in the 3in 1 castle?
>>11127446They’ve got it in the new forbidden forest. Which is unironically awesome if you can score it for $20-25.
>>11127448It unfortunately is not. The skeleton is.
>>11127447Ah shit son congratulations! May your first child be a masculine child.Don’t swallow the duplo pill. Start him out early with bigger parts and teach him to keep things out of his mouth. We started in about 2.5 years old giving them minifigs and some of the 4+ sets. Legos are nerfed now a days and a 2-3 year old can handle sets intended for 4-6 year olds as long as you’re there to supervise. Mine’s going on five now and we just put the 3-1 castle together.
>>11127455Forgot pic.
>>11127449i got 2 of these. one sealed and one to play with. Kinda want to get 2 more to build an actual forest with these.
>>11127451>>11127448>>11127446i meant to say - this bat looks so old.Lego does not produce animals with such "design phylosophy".I wont be surprised if they will update it to look more like a bat. With detailed stuff.I think this (and a parrot and a fish) are the last lego animals that still look like vintage.for example they updated spiders
>>11127471I got ya now. Yeah I totally agree. I could have sworn there’s a set recently with a. Glow in the dark one but I might be thinking the spiders from >>11127465>>11127449
>>11127465Get a couple of the Draco poly bags and it connects oh so sweet.
>>11127410Should I get it now on discount or will I regret for not getting it for the rest of my life?
>>11127410Real OP text since the spammer broke the links trying to be funny.>FAQ:https://docs.google.com/document/d/1YVt-4sibEMFOU8H484MpB-K6rNla5SIYdHZG8lyCHLQ/edit?usp=sharinghttps://www.brickeconomy.com/https://www.bricklink.com/https://brickset.com/https://rebrickable.com/>/lg/ Flickr Group:https://www.flickr.com/groups/legogeneral/>LEGO General Archive:https://archive.palanq.win/toy/search/subject/Lego%20General/>Third Party Information:https://pastebin.com/YHYxy2Ze>General Resources:https://lgfaq.neocities.orgPlay well!
>>11127482Like pottery.
>>11127482Everyone knows real op is shitcock nigger.
>>11127481>will I regret for not getting it for the rest of my life?1) epic as fuck nightmare king + his epic unique sword2) epic horse3) 4 small wings4) little figure just in case you will have an idea of moc in the future
>>11127494Thought i must say i personally didnt buy itidk where i can use a BIG horse. but it looks cool (i got nightmare king from a polybag in europe magazine)
>>11127479so many owlscant wait to get that Owlery building to fill it will A SHIT TON OF OWLS
>>11127506I got a shit ton of owls trying to get wolverine and ending up with a bunch of Hawkeyes… which came with and owl instead of a hawk for some reason that surely wasn’t Lego being lazy money grubbing fucks.
lego youtube bros...i don't feel so good...https://youtu.be/FHu1JsHFM7Q
>>11127413Yup, any reason to buy a decent Halloween set. Haven't had shit since 2020>>11127441This anon does have a point however. Still won't change since I don't often buy sets anyways, but I'd like Lego to actually make Halloween sets that include figures and are more than shitty ornaments again.
I AM GOING TO FUCK FEMALE MINIFIGS UUUOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOÒOOOOH
>>11127529reaction video what a complete faggot
>>11127086>The majority of lego buyers with money are "wokies" or normies at best.>Probably true for most adults buying toys,It's broader than this -- the majority of Americans are normies or "wokies" to some degree or another -- at least enough that they won't be actively put off by a brown dwarf or whatever, or that they don't see a white villain as some kind of anti-white dog whistle like this guy: >>11127086If the "woke" shit alienated more people than it brought in, corporations would drop it in an instant. The reality is that, unless it's extremely in your face, a bit of token inclusivity doesn't freak out the vast majority of people.
>>11127557hottest minifigs?
>>11127604Both sides have their extremes, but I think most people would lean more to the left than the right if they actually thought about it.
>>11127608If people actually thought they'd be on the right
Pink money is a gold mine for companies that want to “be inclusive” when in reality the motivation is always more money. What’s more important for a company making a toy for children or making a product for consumers? It just makes financial sense to cater to a market flush with cash, but don’t ever think Lego or any company gives two shits about cripples, fags, or trannys for real. They only care about the money honey.
>>11127529Didn’t some other fag post another Lego brain rot video in the last thread that was just as low T, faggy and retarded? Why do you people obsess over literal idiots? What’s so broken with 15-30 year olds?
>>11127529Get.
>>11127604>It's broader than this -- the majority of Americans are normies or "wokies" to some degree or anotherWhoa...whooaaa...wait a secAre you saying that...That the majority of people are NORMAL non schizo toxic people with EMPATHY and not a bunch of incels with society collapsing???mindfuckingblown!
>>11127604>It's broader than this -- the majority of Americans are normies or "wokies" to some degree or anotherWell drop the wokies part then. Sure normies don't mind a brown dwarf by itself, nor would I. When the whole set of player characters is brown though, is when normie just wont be interested in the set. This is more of a problem for this set since the bad guy is specifically not a player character.>If the "woke" shit alienated more people than it brought in, corporations would drop it in an instant. The reality is that, unless it's extremely in your face, a bit of token inclusivity doesn't freak out the vast majority of people.This goes beyond token inclusivity, and although it doesn't freak out normies I do think it turns them off of such products. Companies obviously don't do this stuff for profit though, Hasbro (the d&d company) race swapped Aragorn to be a black guy in one of their other products (mtg). No way that didn't hurt their sales, but they are getting paid more to do propaganda. I only blame Hasbro for this set btw, I don't think Lego is a propaganda company.
>>11127627You joke, but I think this grand revelation is genuinely incomprehensible to the retards in these threads who can't understand why this or that company releases products with women and/or minorities and/or cripples in them. The fact of the matter is the vast majority of people don't really think about the wheelchair wizard or the black woman elf or whatever else.
>>11127639>Companies obviously don't do this stuff for profit thoughEverything companies do, they do for profit. >race swapped Aragorn to be a black guy in one of their other products (mtg), No way that didn't hurt their salesThis sounds extremely cringe, but the LotR set is one of the all-time best selling Magic sets, Black Aragorn or not. >but they are getting paid more to do propaganda>muh esg buxNot how investment works. No one is investing in a woke company for the sake of investing in a woke company. They might invest in "ESG-friendly" companies because it feels good to do "responsible investment" or whatever the fuck, but the second the Black Aragorn company is unprofitable, people aren't going to invest in it. And why wouldn't ESG investing be profitable? Normies love consumer slacktivism.
>>11127649You're right they don't think about them at all which is why Eternals failed and burger king kids don't exist anymore.
>>11127649>kid Vidyep that's literally me didn't reed your incel rant tho
>>11127670>Everything companies do, they do for profit.Sure yea, paid propaganda in this case though rather than from the product sale directly.>LotR set is one of the all-time best selling Magic setsI did not know that, I'm guessing they didn't feature black Aragorn in their advertisement. I guess the hype over the ring of power card was enough though.>No one is investing in a woke company for the sake of investing in a woke companySome extremely wealthy people in fact do that, and force the companies to be woke in the first place. The agenda of those few extremely wealthy people is why we are discussing this. Sad.>Normies love consumer slacktivism.Normies don't, that's the wokies.
>>11127672Eternals failed because no one knows what the fuck Eternals is and Marvel Slop on the whole was/is massively oversaturated. But you're exactly right. When I say "people don't care about it," I mean just that. Almost no one is going to a movie specifically for a diverse cast. Likewise, almost no one is avoiding a movie specifically owing to its diverse cast.
>>11127604>>11127627Catkiller
Why is that one guy in the back yellow? Is he actually yellow-skinned in the lore or something?
>>11127410Rip just2good
>>11127708>paid propaganda in this case though rather than from the product sale directlyAssuming you're talking about ESG investment or some such, this isn't free money. You invest in something expecting a return on that investment. If you invest in something like WotC and they can't move product, it doesn't matter how many Black Legolases or WheelChair Wizards their product lineup includes -- if they're unprofitable, they're going to lose investment, even from the Wokest investor.>Some extremely wealthy people in fact do that, and force the companies to be woke in the first place.No, companies are woke because it's profitable. And it's profitable to be woke because a large (and increasing) consumer base in America is non-white, female, gay (or some kind of non-falsifiable type of gay: non-binary or bi or whatever), etc. Most other consumers feel positive about "inclusivity" or don't really pay it any mind. >Normies don't, that's the wokies.No, normies love "green" marketing or "fair trade" or whatever else. If you can convince someone their mundane consumption is good for the planet or for poor brown people or something, the average consumer will pay a (reasonable) premium to feel like they're doing good.>>11127743I think it's a githyanki, which have kind of yellow-green skin.
>>11127748Did he actually die? What happened?
.
>>11127761tfw no bald brown stormtrooper gf
>>11127410Kill yourself
>>11127743He's asian
>>11127761Lego FAIL!Lego should give them hair pieces, similar to the Speed Champions sets, Why give them faces under the helmets, and not give them hair pieces?[use your own, from other sets]that's not the point, - they are selling you an incomplete set. (Oh, that red slope piece on the rear of the ship? just use your own! see how ridiculous that would be?)Speed Champions designers figured that out a long time ago, and they don't even really need it, because most of the time, you can see the faces IN the helmet, which is different.
>>11127485Everyone knows real op is a faggot.
>>11127743the race in dnd is the githyanki, which are actually a yellowish green/tan-green skin tone, so I think they just made it yellow and called it good. Which I am actually happy about as with the leaks it looked like it was a weird yellow green, and wished the dwarf/halfling/human/elf were yellow skin. Makes them feel more lego and makes moc builds so much more accessible when any piece can go with another. But not with flesh tones. And with the actual DND set being flesh tones, figured it was a wash, but good to see at least one hairpiece that can be used for a bunch of other elf characters.
I just watched the business insider LEGO video.It was one of the worst youtube video I've ever seen. It was filled with misleading info.
>>11127800no one in the history of Lego Star wars has ever displayed a stormtrooper with their helmet off
>>11127846>It was filled with misleading info.How? Did someone say "only the best is good enough" ?
>>11127849Luke? Han? Finn?

>>11127944enjoy your nike collab faggot
>>11127639>When the whole set of player characters is brownYet for some reason I feel you wouldn't be complaining if the whole set of player characters was white. Why is it OK if all the characters are one race, but if they're all another race you throw a shitfit?And that was a rhetorical question. The answer is obviously a) you're a racist and b) society still treats whiteness as "the default race" and anything else a deviation from the norm that has the be specifically justified even when there isn't any narrative reason for why it should be justified (I'm not talking about stuff like making a story set in 7th century England and including a black character, which would be historically inaccurate, but stuff like setting the story in the modern day, or a fantasy world where different races of humans are established as being in contact with each other and still insisting that all characters must be white unless there's a specific reason for them not to be).
>>11127875>Luke? Han?not stormtroopers technically and they would obviously come with hair pieces >Finn?who?
>>11127482Does anyone even care?
>>11127935If this used bionicle instead of hero factory pieces it would be a 10/10. those hero factory pieces really degrade it

>>11128139When these sets came out i was only interested by this one, but it was always sold out.
>>11127849that's my point. just give them plain black heads then. Noooo... it's an easy way to score "diversity points" by making them women-of-color but it's a half-done jobgiving them flesh-colors with people face prints, and they ARE people, and NEED hairpieces, just as much as Luke and Han get hair pieces when they take the Stormtrooper helmets off.

>>11127749Wealthy people past a certain point spend their money on philanthropies and such. Some of them spend it on wokifying companies to push propaganda. There's enough failed woke products for it to be clear it's done for it's own sake rather than profit.>>11127953I wouldn't mind since I am white. It's not racist to prefer minifigs that are similar to yourself - whatever your race. I am ok with some of the figs being brown, but in this case they all brown except the bad guy.White is the default race for fantasy, it is built around medieval Europe writing and history, faries dragons and all. One could say this is cultural appropriation lol. I seem to recall d&d has direct roots to medieval writings through Chaucer's tales, but if not there are plenty of second order connections e.g. lotr. Obv if they can introduce beholders they can introduce other races but see above paragraph.
What do you guys do with all your medium/large sets?There's a lot of big sets I want but realistically I won't have more than 1-2 built at a time. Seems like a lot of clutter to keep in boxes in a closet or whatever.
>>11127449>Buckbreak
>>11127413They needed to put eyes on the tree leaves.
>>11128339Just so I can wrap my mind around what you're alleging -- you believe most toy companies, most movie studios, most video game companies, most media conglomerates in general, etc. are pushing out a bunch of unprofitable trash no one likes, and they're able to operate unprofitably year after year because of endless donations from woke angel investors who never expect to see any return on their investment?
>>11127482Fuck off, redditor, this is SHITCOCK NIGGER country.
>>11128424Larry why are you gaslighting people in the lego general shouldn't you be running BlackRock?

>>11128424>you believe most toy companies, most movie studios, most video game companies, most media conglomerates in general, etc. are pushing out a bunch of unprofitable trash no one likesThe evidence speaks for itself.
>>11128424yes when you print money you can do what you wish. We live in a post scarcity Society. Just look how many people it takes to feed 99%. The modern world doesn't need 99% of you. You, we, live in a slave pit.
>>11128476Listen it’s not they hey have space cripples or wizard cripples or dream cripples
>>11128469
>>11128476And what evidence is this?I’ll agree the products are shitty, it’s not obvious to me they’re, on the whole, unprofitable.
>>11128469The only good nigger is a yellow nigger. Also whites asians etc. Fuck fleshies

Press F to pay respects
>>11127604>If the "woke" shit alienated more people than it brought in, corporations would drop it in an instant. I guess ghostbusters 2016, Star Wars the acolyte, dustborn, and concord did fantastic thenoh wait
>>11128424Yes. Companies fall for stupid trends constantly. Remember when companies like square enix sold off their properties to buy fucking NFTs? I guarantee that they still think losing money to look more attractive to investors is a bad idea, especially with a lot of them trying to rebrand and hide DEI departments
>>111280307 too many
>>11127996>brutal moggings
>>11128424I don't know why people try to pretend it's not a thing. I don't understand WHY it happens either but we have receipts of it happening, it's not some insane conspiracy theory.The thing I really don't get is, supposedly all the old money is republichuds and evil fascists, why aren't they doing their own hedge fund thing to promote their own ideals? Too Scrooge McDuck pilled to part with any money?

You've just been given $10,000 USD to invest in the Lego futures market. You MUST use the money to purchase Lego, and you can only buy brand new sets that are currently available. What's your game plan?
>>11128888Use your teeth
>me: adult (35+lvl)>like: chima/nexo/ninjago/galaxy squad/monster fighters (themes with cool stuff/monsters/mechs/unicue awesome things)>want to find lego friends>all adults i know or see even online just collecting the most boring stuff ever. At maximum they interested in starwars but just buy a set and never touch it ever againit's painful. It sucks. /lg/ is the only place where i see other anons with interests similar to mineI honestly tried to find people on reddit even. But all i see adults posting "my recent haul :)".They dont fucking look like they actually like lego and a bit geeky
>>11128968>You MUST use the money to purchase Lego, and you can only buy brand new sets that are currently available. What's your game plan?1) Currently discounted Harry Potter set.They having cool deals on amazon for the biggest lego Hogwarts part -the great hall.2) Barad Durs + lame Beast3) 1000 Dreamzzz Night Hunter minifigures from german magazines + import them to US and lock in a garage for 10+ years.
>>11128975Not directly related to what you said, but scalping GWPs just seems like a special kind of faggotry to me.
>>11128982my recent haul :)
>>11128982gwps are kind of crap so it doesnt matter. the only one i was interested in was the millenium falcon interior and then they made it worthless by putting sequel characters in it
>>11128989>gwps are kind of crap so it doesnt matterthey are crap but this opinion doesn't matter either.They are extremely exclusive so that beast will forever be one of the most wanted gwps.
>>11128968With 10k Jaws, Hocus Pocus, and both LotR sets would be safe investments for high end stuff.For the mid to lower end stuff I dont think you would go wrong with any of the Sonic or Monkey King stuff, certain Dreamzzz sets (croc car, turtle van, pirate ship, any of the new dream witch sets) or Jp stuff.A particular Jp set would be the one with the therozinasaurus and Gigganotasaurus just going off Legos track record with never doing another Indominus or Indoraptor.
>>11128879Was gonna say, I've done this for most of my faded torsos.
>>11128809>we have receipts of it happeningsuch as?>>111287601) i'm sure this univariate, "these products failed because they're woke" analysis is incredibly sophisticated and reliable2) supposedly every large media conglomerate is woke, and not every product released by these conglomerates succeeds -- it follows that we'll necessarily see woke flops. probably many flops given the sheer scale of entertainment production today. you'd need to demonstrate these woke projects are more consistently unprofitable than non-woke projects. or we can broaden our scope here. you claim all these woke media conglomerates are unprofitable -- can you point to any? is Disney unprofitable because of the acolyte? is Sony unprofitable after Lady Ghostbusters or Concord? is Lego unprofitable owing to its Troooonzzz line, its black elves, etc.? did Black Aragorn bankrupt WotC? Hasbro's seen astronomical losses this year, but it's leaning hard on WotC now, which has performed incredibly well year over year (its two woke products -- black lord of the rings trading cards and baldur's gay -- being far and away most responsible for the publisher's success last year)
>>11129000Out of the current Indiana Jones stuff the tomb set has the best potential as it can work easily as Indiana Jones or generic mummy/Egypt set.Star wars is a crapshoot as they're always gonna be releasing troop builders, everyone enjoys the ships but you really after to look for the one offs lego won't be cranking out new versions of every couple years.>Black Falcon>fang fighter vs tie fighter>shin Hati ship vs bootleg X wing
>>11129002look up blackrock. they get investments from them to put gay slop in everything and companies will prioritize those investments over making something consumers might actually buy because it's more reliable (until their gay slop flops). but i think you might already know this and are just being disingenuous
>>11129000>A particular Jp set would be the one with the therozinasaurus and Gigganotasaurus just going off Legos track record with never doing another Indominus or Indoraptor.dont forget JP brachiois the biggest lego dinosaur and it wont be maid ever againAlso>not sipping european 4eur magazines with minifigures that considered expensive in US
>>11129014I'm not denying the existence or trendiness of ESG investing. I'm asking you to demonstrate the far more remarkable claim that this form of investing acts as limitless free money from ideologues who don't expect any return on their investment. BlackRock managers other people's/corporations' money. If it were serving its clients losses year after year, it wouldn't be the world's largest asset manager for long. Apart from that, the ESG designation is a complete meme and a marketing sham used to launder corporate reputations. It's all just PR -- don't get your panties in a twist over it.
>>11129032the return on their investment is making everything gay slop, blackrock is funded by the richest families on earth who don't give a shit about throwing away money.
>>11129032It's funny how weird pol fags obsess over Blackrock when there are confirmed actors like Russia and Ziklag actively push division online.
>>11128940you have to be 18 to post here
>>11129035Russia, ziklag and blackrock are all run by the big nose tribe so polfags are right
>>11128760I'm not familiar with Dustborn and Concord (unless the latter is the new PS5 hero shooter nobody played, though I believe that's mostly because the people who still care about hero shooters already play one of the established ones), but after 2016 Ghostbusters films dropped the reboot setting and went back to the original timeline like fans wanted, and Acolyte flopped badly enough that Disney publicly announced the 2nd season was canceled, so clearly if things fail badly enough corporations are going to drop it in favor of something that might be more popular. >>11128809>The thing I really don't get is, supposedly all the old money is republichuds and evil fascists, why aren't they doing their own hedge fund thing to promote their own ideals?They already do. Oil companies spend a ton of money funding climate denialism and many billionaires have connections to far-right politicians and think tanks. There may not be an "irresponsible investment" fund (opposite of "responsible investment" funds) but that's because it would be pointless. The whole point of "responsible" investment funds is that they supposedly only invest in companies that care about things like the environment and human rights, while other investment funds don't give a fuck about morality, so normal investment funds are "irresponsible" by definition. Though in practice the so-called "responsible" investment is largely bullshit, because it's not like corporations actually care about morality. They just hire a consultant or do something that looks nice on paper but doesn't cost them anything, like make random minifigs brown and claim it counts as combating racism, so they can get those extra investments.
>>11129042Yep. People look to 'blackrock', 'klaus', or 'soros', yet ignore much wealthier groups like the Koch Brothers, Ziklag, the Heritage Foundation, etc. who openly talk about how their goals are to manipulate social conversations for their financial gain. It's why Fox News obsesses over trannies and attacks windfarms.
>>11128975I feel ya>back in early 2000 used to play few Lego sets with my cousin >we mixed them with his own toys, it was not Lego but we did not care>sadly, this was short lived>we had to move to a different state far away>ffw 2024, we still in contact but extremely rarely>he is now your typical normifagthe rest is what you mentionedThe only option left is whenever I had kids sometime in the future to share this shit with them.. but even then there is that risk that they turn:>"The fuck is this? I want Foreshite to play with my friends"shit is fucked
>>11129034Can you demonstrate this at all? Can you point to all these families bleeding capital to push the Black Aragorn trading card?And how/why have Blackrock's investments been profitable year over year if 1) they're backing unprofitable companies, and 2) no one investing with them cares about profits? The simple explanation is that woke shit is generally profitable, that it brings in more consumers than it alienates. This doesn't require belief in these paradoxical billionaires and multinational conglomerates who're perpetually hemhorraging money. Capital is fickle. If there's opportunity in structurally underinvested "non-woke" companies, that's where capital is going to flow.
>>11129103The opposite is actually true, and much like everything on the Right every accusation is a confession. There's a reason these shitty 'He Gets Us' ads are all over place.

I don't like bread that much and it's not that good for you anyway. So this is 4 days of lunches and you get a lot of left over chorizo.

Times you acted like Jack Stone?
>>11129538Once upon a time, in the bustling town of Rescue City, lived a brave and dedicated hero named Jack Stone. Jack was a firefighter, a police officer, and a coast guard all in one. With his unique, oversized Lego minifigure, he stood out among the rest.One fateful day, a fire broke out in the heart of Rescue City. Jack, alerted by the sirens, raced to the scene in his fire truck. Using his expertise and the help of his fellow firefighters, they managed to contain the blaze, saving countless lives and buildings.Later that day, a distress call came in from the harbor. A ship had run aground, and the crew was in danger. Jack, now in his coast guard gear, sped to the scene. He skillfully navigated the rough waters and managed to rescue everyone onboard.As the sun began to set, Jack received a report of a robbery at the local bank. Swiftly changing into his police uniform, he pursued the thief through the city streets, eventually apprehending him and recovering the stolen goods.That night, the people of Rescue City cheered for their hero, Jack Stone. He had once again proven himself to be a true guardian of the city, ready to protect and serve at a moment's notice.
>>11129520I do, and unfortunately they won't work together.
>>11129538I've got a stupid looking face and no one likes me so you could say Jack Stone is literally me.

So that's why we call it out.

i love lego star wars and im tired of pretending i dont. it lets me play out all the stories yidsney fucked up in the way i wanted them to turn out with my minifigs and ships. plus while we wait for lego space to return if it ever will its perfect to tide you over especially the new sets where they tried their own ideas instead of copying the films like the dark falcon. too bad about the prices though. also the alien figs are great for making space police aliens for my space police to arrest and beat up
>>11129700maybe just relocating them to ice planet?
>>11129585arent the ive planet guys on another planet? (i almost called them ice police when typing this) how are there polar bears, did they bring them with them? or did they find them on the planet. that could be a cool story, somehow these polar bears got to the planet and the ice planet guys dont know how, so they have to uncover le secret history of the ice planet to find who put these polar bears here.>>11129589dont be such a faggot anon. post YOUR build>>11129609I'm a zoomer but I think it is one of the cooler space themes.

>>11129639Yeah, that smarts, but you'll have him. Congrats!
>>11129700This would also be a cool but tragic story. The last polar bears.... But they have space aids so they have to be put down.

>>11129657I’m asking you to demonstrate ESG investment is unprofitable. I’m not disputing the existence or trendiness of “activist investing”
Two for $60… built once. I’m in the car. I don’t need six of them but the price is right.
>>11129849not that anon, but from my take ESG was never meant to make profits, it was a way to cow companies into specific practices under threat of losing arbitrary brownie points that were equated to more or less investment money for a company and social pressures. And that number can be argued to be a reflection of political beliefs by the company and their owners/ceos which if you agreed, you got higher points, and if not lower. Like how advertisers were using their money as leverage to make Youtube crack down on content that wasn't be deemed "family friendly".
>>11127743Can't wait to pick up the mind flayer. I love that they went with the fiery eyes and longer tentacles from BG3.
>>11128998gwps shouldn't be important characters or set pieces. Like the staircase from Harry Potter is an awful gwp choice that comes to mind.
>>11129008I grabbed the Boba Fett mech recently on sale because I feel like in a few years all the people not buying it now are going to want the minifig.
>>11129894I can't wait to get some of those sweet sweet paladins. So many new unique prints and pieces. I really hope they make the armor pieces a normal piece in the future.
>>11129902I suspect they will. Nothing unique to D&D there, after all.
>>11129103>If there's opportunity in structurally underinvested "non-woke" companies, that's where capital is going to flow.I think you're also forgetting that a lot of woke ideas have large media support, so it can seem like a PR nightmare for any larger company to get invested with them, even if they end up doing good in the end, like Kingdom Come.>>11129042Concord is the hero shooter, yes, and dustborn is... indescribable, it's like someone took every stereotype of a power twitter user and did them all unironically. I think that companies tend to go into these with the expectation that it'll raise sales, but given how hard shit like those and the new Indiana Jones flop, reality hits them quick, and the more business minded snap back around. Granted, some companies have a lot of investment into that pool already, or are filled with true beleivers, who will revolt if you do anything out of line, like when iger said he wanted to do less political shit in movies, causing his employees to figuratively riot. Which led to him having to put out the dud that was strange world, since he couldn't pull it due to the hot water he was in with said employees. PR plays a lot into the ossification of woke shit

>>11130119>Alien Conquest in Bpost address
>>11130120Yes. The only thing Lego has going for it nowadays is availability (FUCK YOU MATTEL) and play features. Other brands have already reached Lego if not surpassed them depending on what subjects you like.
>>11130127They are in B because it's the middle. The Aliens are S Tier but the humans are F Tier - Just the same as alien conquest but with orange sometimes which is also ugly and the robot figures look like bootlegs.

How do you guys get smells out of used lego? I've bought some in the past and regret it every time.

>>11130157All brown plastic sucks, I had a brown gundam and it was super brittle and snapped apart.
>>11130179I would buy it if it was just the ocarina of time version much more fleshed out(or as is but more reasonably priced). This B model shit is a big no I don't want any BOTW filler slop>>11130183>link to the past which is the best zelda game.ew. no.
>>11130186ocarina of time is an easy baby game. play link to the past and grow some pubic hair
>>11130187I've played it(way before OoT). It looks like shit, the characters are shit and the dungeons are shit. Link's Awakening(not the shitmake) is the best Zelda. Best music, charming world, way better looking than lttp(despite being made for vastly inferior hardware) and most importantly, infinitely superior level design.
>>11130179I want that DnD so badly and i can buy it in October. But damnThat's TOO MUCH SPACE consuming.otherwise this looks like a Skyrim of lego. a playset you can play with for HOURS and HOURS + it has secrets you can find or make for years.If i got gifted this set as a kid i would play with it for years....
>>11130192I want it too and as a standalone I could afford it but I know the moment I buy it I'm gonna want all the dnd cmfs and keep expanding my fantasy arsenal which is not good for my wallet.
>>11130193that's exactly why i want it. It could be the best playground for my fantasy minifigures.most of my lego stuff is sci-fi so fantasy people just hanging out in a plastic box.
>>11130191LTTP has the best pixel art, characters and dungeons and is way better and link's awakening copied almost everything from lttp. You're just bad, gay and have shit taste.
just got my ghost 2 bros. time to build
>>11130192I feel the same. Debating buying it for the characters/monsters and using the rest for castle mocs.There's so many sets I want but can't justify the space/clutter.
>>11130196embarrassing post>pink hair>walk cycle is all manners of fucked up and out of sync with the speed its movingLMAOReminder this is on the same console that did Chrono Trigger and Final Fantasy 6
>>11130201i dont even understand where people getting free space?Are those "my recent haul :)" people just newfags and that is their first lego?It's impossible to have free space for thsoe giant boxes if you already have lego...What the hell...and i live in my own house which means there SHOULD be space but there isn't.
>>11130202And it's better than both of those games combined. Notice how the only "problems" people have with the game are minor nit-picks like hair and some walk cycle thing which I don't even see what you are talking about.
>>11130202It's doing that because you're running it on an emulator with a way higher framerate than the console, retard
>>11130203rebbituloids do it for other stuff like warhammer as well and never build them. it's so gay

>>11130207It's fabuland 2. kino
>>11130204>Notice how the only "problems" people have with the game are minor nit-picksI just mentioned that because you said it has the best art. The fact that you can't even grasp the walk cycle dissonance just shows your understand of art is non-existentbut as I initially said there's much more issues with the game. literally all dungeons have the same stale music, in awakening each dungeon has a different theme that completely changes the atmosphere. lttp """characters""" are barely existent, koholint is full to the brim with interesting people(with many special interactions like the trading sequence) and you even have further gameplay interactions where you go on adventures with a tagalong buddy(chain chomp, marin, the ghost and the flying rooster). Don't even get me started on the dungeon design and the tremendous inventory bloat.>>11130205wrong. hook up your snes and try it for yourself
>>11130207Only now I realised Fabuland lasted 10 years which is impressive.

>>11130219the only difference is the light world palaces which are more like basic minidungeons, all the dark world dungeons(which are the actual dungeons) have the same boring ass track
>>11130218DAMNNNNNNthey look fucking cool together.while photos on Amazon making these look like some stupid duplo playsets

>>11130231I own lego, not "legos"
>>11128424>>11129103You have placed the goal post way further out than it needs to be. The claim isn't that these companies would be wholly unprofitable, but that they are less profitable, and that loss of profit is paid for by the propaganda investors. It is quite obvious that race swapping Aragorn in the LOTR MTG set was not done to help sales, yet the product was still successful apparently. The LOTR and MTG brands are strong enough to suffer one bad card and still sell well. There are plenty of cases per >>11128760 where the brand wasn't strong enough and the woke messaging did flop the product. These companies don't take the risk of e.g. race swapping already known and beloved characters because they think it will help sales (they would normally ride on the coat tails of such IP), it is paid propaganda.Now this is getting off topic from the one sentence comment I made on the d&d lego set, and I don't really believe you are genuine in your disbelieve of woke investing, so I hope per >>11130082 we can fuck off and no one makes another retard post that I feel the need to respond to.

>>11130255>lego releases 100 mud hut sets for zelda
The true mark of soullessness is when LEGO started putting these white dots on minifigures' eyes. Any minifigure with this curse has no light or creativity behind those eyes, and is merely a corporate husk. The only thing you can do is to try and fix it by using a fine point sharpie to remove the mark of soullessness.
>>11130218>>11130228the biggest thing holding the AC sets back is those dogshit rounded plates they're using. I only have one but the second I put it all on a proper baseplate it went from a 5 to an 8 for me.

>>11130106Personally I don't like Galaxy Squad very much. Both it and AC have the same issue with the minifig armor colors not looking very good, nut GS also has the robot minifigs that look pretty bad and worse aliens (that's admittedly a matter of opinion, but I like the green cartoony alien dudes that come in very distinct designs over the bug-people. Though I understand people liking the bugs as well), and the homage to classic alien invasion B-movies is more fun than Lego version of Starship Troopers.
>>11130279On /vp/ we had a Minecraft server with Pokemon and trains.
>>11130281>bad and worse aliensFUCKOFFgalaxy squad literally have the best aliensit's pretty much the Space Troopers/Zergs of lego
>>11130268iktf this set triggers the same feeling in me as the minecraft mountain in the sense that it feels like such a complete playset stacked with features. I guess the secret to a great lego set is combining forest, water, caves and a high top.it's a shame lego doesn't do more full blown environments
WHEN???Can this result in sets?
>>11130285I'd never buy any of the Minecraft stuff but honestly if I was an actual kid I'd love this. This is straight up the kind of shit kids build in the first place if you just give them some huge tub of 2x4 bricks
>>11130284they are the best after space police, ufo and insectoids
>>11130287>Can this result in sets?Nope.
>>11130290>insectoidsgalaxy squad does it better. It's an upgrade of an old theme.Only nostalgian sluggers like insectoids above galaxy squad. It's literally "nothing = the theme"- no cool minifigs (another typica le-space-minifigure~)- builds are random- theme is space insects but those look like some basic incect models without any sci-fi idea behind them
>>11130294are you crazy. look at the image you just posted it contradicts everything you just said
>>11130287Just go get this and stop reposting this trash no one gives a shit about your very niche hope and cope. https://delsbricks.com/products/goku-dragon-ball-z-lego-minifigures
>>11130238>The claim isn't that these companies would be wholly unprofitable This, and more ludicrous conspiratard shit, is what others in this thread are claiming. But you seem reasonable, so I won't hold you to what other schizoids have said. If you're just saying, "some activist investors will back less profitable investments because they feel they're doing good," then sure. I don't know how often it happens, these people are still expecting returns on their investments, and I seriously doubt, say, institutional investors are regularly investing sub-optimally (again, capital is incredibly fickle -- it'll flow into underinvested areas if there's opportunity). But sure, some individual investors do some activist investing. >the product was still successful apparently. The LOTR and MTG brands are strong enough to suffer one bad card and still sell wellIt was one of the most successful MTG sets of all time.But this goes to my core claim. Most people aren't actually invested in culture war bullshit one way or the other. Unless its an extreme focal point (maybe Lady Ghostbusters, maybe Black Little Mermaid), inclusivity/diversity/whatever in a product isn't likely to alienate more people than it brings in.>where the brand wasn't strong enough and the woke messaging did flop the product.Again, I'm sure this univariate "go woke go broke" analysis is far more sophisticated than it appears. We're going to see woke flops, probably a good number of them. That's necessarily true given the amount of media output today, given how much of it is "woke," and given how many projects fail (something like, what, 20-40% of movies flop). It's not enough to point at half a dozen examples. We'd need to demonstrate: 1) these failed *because* they're woke 2) these "woke" games, shows, movies, etc. fail more regularly or more spectacularly than "non-woke" projects

>>11130268that D&D set is a ridiculous, almost comical, almost blatantly evil, mind blowing, I can't even...$360that's THREEHUNDREDand SIXTYDOLLARSit's mind blowingwho did they expect to buy that? what [kid/teenager/person] who plays D&D would have that much money?!as close to a physical SLAP IN YOUR FACE as they can get. You want D&D? SLAP! Here's your D&D!After you leave the store, you'll feel like... where's my money? did I just get mugged? I think Lego actually mugged me. that was A LOT of money! UGH what was I thinking?!on the other hand, if you're a rock star and have that kind of money, what does anything matter? you would have already bought it if you had infinite money
>>11130346Refer to >>11130179All things considered DnD set is not that bad value

Bought some Lego, lads.
>>11130346>$360i agreeI'd rather buy a Steam Deck than fucking lego.this is retarded
>>11130377Yikes
>>11130374I only got the small sets and the blue and red mech when i was a kid. This only female was locked in the biggest set i believe.
>>11130377BASED LEGO GHOST MOMMY ENJOYERBASED LEGO FURRY NINJA BROS FUCKERBASED LEGO ALIEN TRANNY PLAYERBASED NINJA MECH WRANGLER
>>11130355>>11130179it's not so much about price per brick or that they made it a 'solid, interesting' set, it's just an insult that it's sooooo expensive. for a D&D product.like making the Zelda LEGO SET to be more expensive than an actual Nintendo Switch game console, and that's a whole video game console!- that Zelda set is seriously going to be the new Rex. there's NO WAY they made those new hair pieces, which are epic and years-worth of fan demand built up, and NOT make more sets, a lot smaller, a lot less $$. If you want a Link & Zelda minifgs, but don't want to spend HUNDREDS of dollars, wait. they will be in a polybag at some point for a mere $5it's not like this will be the only Zelda set with um... the Master Sword... because it's a cool thing in the game and you should buy the big set to get it hurhur. No, that's Link's iconic sword, and will be in the $5 polybag with him.
>>11130405Keep dreaming, Rex is some literally who. Link and Zelda are now or never, there likely won't be another LoZ set period, and if it is it'll be another set in the hundreds.
>>11130405Unlikely. I think what's more likely is that there'll be an another set next year or after that's about same scale, featuring Ganon etc.
>>11130409>LTTP Pyramid of Power set that you can open up and see Ganon in his arena fighting link and the fatass fairyI would pay what ocarina/botw normgroids are paying tenfold for this
>>11130408>Rex is some literally whoretard
>>11130418he is some literally whohas he ever been in anything anyone's ever watched? didn't think so
>>11130418>not in any of the real moviesA literal fucking nobody.
>>11130420>>11130422Lmao retard. Rex is literally the most famous clone guy.when you think clones you thing white+blue.Zelda is for normie afols.
>>11130408Zelda will be history no one cares about in a few years. Lego need to get with the program and license something timeless like Elden Ring or Skyrim
>>11130422He's in Attack of the Clones and Return of the Jedi briefly

>>11130432I don't like either!
>>11130423>most famous clonethis is like being the tallest dwarf
>>11130434Not to mention Boba Fett is also a clone.
>>11130437These petulant children obsess over holes in the helmets and slightly different prints on minifigures, did you expect a voice of reason?
>>11130437>Not to mention Boba Fett is also a clone.dont be a retardyou know what i mean
>>11130408>>11130409Keaton Batman was originally in a multi-hundreds-dollars setit might be soon, or it might take a while, but Lego will cash in on the Link and Zelda hairpieces, no doubt.keychains at the very least, books, it's like free money for them now that the creative work is done.
>>11130448keaton batman doesnt even have a cloth cape and he doesn't even have that eyeshadow under his mask like the movie they just made the eyes completely white. looks the same as every other batman apart from the juniorized cowl and cape. Crap figure
>>11130454Cloth capes are cringe. Molded are far superior.
>>11130451why does this freakazoid troon looking creature of a minifigure get a waistcape but not our boys in blue. im so pissed off
>>11130457lol, that Izzie fig will be worth a fortune in a few years my man.
>>11130456>Cloth capes are cringe. Molded are far superior.basedi always hated cloth capes and never used them because i was afraid of ruining them.The WORST cloth capes were those "paper like" that were absolutely fucking terrible ass-wipe tier faggotry (they were in a 2012 castle era)You bend them and they pretty much ruined.now rubber capes became like a new solid lego pieces that can last forever

Soooo LoZ is going to be a whole line, right? I can’t afford that big fucking set
>>11127421My parents never helped me build sets so instead of looking through the instructions I would make shitty little MOCs on my own. In hindsight it’s a actually a great way to stimulate a child’s imagination
