I got this at the grocery store.
>>11546106Sets of fucking what? The only non-conventional thing in that turd of a show are the characters.
>>11546111Never. It killed Halo just so it could flop even harder (and Halo already killed Dragons so fuck you x2, Mega deserve their fate)

Here’s my thoughts:This is how little spambitch sees himself right now https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=SEJHJ_WfNgUGot shouted out of making a “heckin new thread” did we? Sad.
Waiting on the captcha sucks don’t it bro?>>11545839I don’t even know what your rebuttal is but i know one of those phrases is about to show up.
>>11546138FUCKIN CALLED IT LMFAO!>>11546139Never change Paul.
>>11541703I made this today after getting the U-wing. Apologies I'm an amateur builder with not a large collection. The gate is a heavily modified rebrickable double gate alt build. I added the parapet looking part on top and removed the brown mountain pieces. Didn't see a moc thread up so thought it was appropriate to post here. My only disappointment with the U-wing is Dedra's greyish legs / coat where they should be white. Hope you guys can sort out the shitposting issue the Lego threads were relatively civilized last time I was here.
>>11546191We’re figuring it out.
So the death star is supposed to be a 700 dollar set but the 40% price increase of star wars sets has humbed it right Even modulars have jumped in priceI know its cliche now but hot damn, this is too much money for plastic
>>11546199Pretty much. If you adjust the UCS Falcon dor inflation it would be higher than $1k. At this rate it won't be long until $1.5k sets.
>>11546208seems the idea is to set the precedent yeah. And honestly they're right that this is the best set to do it with. for every jang who won't buy this it only takes 3 star wars fans to make up for that sale in full. and there will be a lot of em
>>11546110>I was thinking of creating a city based on islands, each representing a different world from those themesBasically what they did for Lego Island 2.
>>11546107The first Lego anime theme was Spongebob.
>>11546110That could be cool yeah. Depends on what you're gonna do work the bricks from the sets. I recycle most the bricks into my general collection desu and am just left with the minifigs

>Torso is a red on black print>Arms are moulded in redwill the reds match?
Isn't there a proper bald cap to cover the stud?
>>11556908They used the transporter room for the teaser, perhaps upcoming set?I already expect for 2026:>brickheadz>tos enterprise>transporter room diorama>some klingon set (they use klingonian here >>11556903)
>>11556908the face looks so bad
>>11556908Does this match the Picard in the leaked pic?
>>11556915Doesn't matter because leakers said the leaked pic was a prototype and the finished model is much better
>>11546208>>11546199the falcon is 7.5k vs 9k pieces faggot
>>11556908You know they won’t and the printing will be shitty and the base plastic will bleed through. You can go get a whole shitton of the 90s action figures in a lot on eBay for cheap and a scale model plastic enterprise for your shelf for ~$100 total. >>11556912Better have miles fucking Obrien
>>11546208OMG thanks LEGO for making Lego bricks more affordable
>>11556921I think you are mentally ill poorfagDeath star truly fucked up you guys
>>11556927Think what you will. It’s not going to make a shitty dust warmer and minfig display cost less or any better. Don’t forget to get it on Black Friday for your Ro Laren DLC shuttlecraft. I’m not poor but I refuse to buy stupidly expensive plastic building bricks. I give myself a strict $100 limit on sets. But I’ll buy multiple if they’re good enough. Why do you think it won’t suck? If you’re just going to put it on a shelf why not get a nice actual scale model and action figures for a quarter of the price?
>>11556934Lego is God's gift
>>11556903Is this first time in year Lego collabs with Paramount again after TMNT? Maybe we get a TMNT revival or Spongebob?
>>11556908A teaser like this one shows to me that Lego knows how powerful the iconography of a minifigure is, and how much a general audience would recognize it. With both of those factors in mind - I do really wish that we just get a set of a minifig-scale bridge at some point. It would probably be a lot smaller can cheaper than a whole Enterprise, you could get all of the figures, and it would be a lot more playable.But, that's all me just talking to a wall... At least we should get full, high quality photos in the next few days. And see what that Shuttle looks like.
>>11556903I wonder why they used Klingon text to tease a set that ja supposed to be the Enterprise. Yes, Klingon is a part of the franchise, but it's one of many, many, many things and it's really not something that is very iconic of the franchise. If they had teased the very first Star Wars set with Aura Besh for instance then that might make sense, but this is a heck of a lot more "random." It's sort of on the level of if they'd teased the Willy Wonka set with a stick of gum - sure, there's gum in the story and it's not unimportant, but it's also one of a thousand things that might be technically connected to the story.
>>11556903They use the franchise logo instead of next generation so this to me means they consider making a full theme, perhaps as Icons subtheme like LotR but still.I really hope they do it like this:>big Trek ships like ToS Enterprise, Borg cube (but as playset please, that can work), Bird of Prey and perhaps Deep Space 9>midi scale ships like pic related but there's a catch, each one has an exclusive minifig>a cmf series>some dioramas like a transporter room or decks
>>11556968>P'takhYou Soiwars fags will never cease to amaze me.>if they’d have included glubb shittoI’ve seen StarWars like a hundred times and Aura Besh has never once been on the radar. Ask anyone who an antagonist is in star trek and I promise Klingons is in the top five… because you know they aren’t constantly fighting “the empire”.
>>11556981Ah yes, the klingon empire
>>11556984Or the romulan empire, or the dominion empire, or the cardassian empire, or the borg collective, or the Xindi, or the Kaizon, or even the ferengi space joos that they are.I’m hoping for a voyage home Klingon bird of prey and 2 blue whales plus alien probe gwp.
>>115569034+ sets when?
>>11556903>Lego Group and Paramount announced their first-ever collaboration to bring the iconic world of “Star Trek” to life in LEGO® brick form. The LEGO Group and “Star Trek” have strong shared values of imagination, exploration and building a better tomorrow, making this an ideal partnership for fans of all ages.
>>11556903It has been well-known for a while that LEGO will bring an Enterprise-D for Black Friday.It will be the usual heavily over-priced mediocre-quality crap that LEGO has been releasing as licensed sets recently, but it will be there.It’s too bad that Paramount pull the Star Trek license from Bluebrixx as they had really good quality models and the creators there were actual fans.But LEGO fanboys will rave about this product and make it a success, no matter how bad it actually is.
>>11557011>imagination>nulego where most sets are displayslop dustcollectormaxxed playsetcel codedYikes.
>>11556903I liked what BlueBrixx was doing, but it was only really easily available in Europe.I wonder if some clause in Lego’s Lucasfilm contract expired, since it was often said that they couldn’t do any other competing franchise to Star Wars.
Lego gave Star Trek their own page:https://www.lego.com/en-us/themes/star-trek/about>Boldly go where no one has gone before. Prepare for warp speed. Resistance is futile.Random bs go! Lol

I finally got to watching the latest season of Dragons Rising and surprised Lego never made a minifigure of this guy, he was a pretty major player.He wouldn't even to make, no new moulds and only one print, he can use a generic City face print.But this is Lego, they still haven't made a minifigure of the witch, Mr Frohicky or Geo, and I if a feeling if a Lee minifigure was made, it'd be paywalled behind yet another expansion for Ninjago city.Yet more gatekeeping of characters people want behind a several hundred dollar paywall. Yay.
>>11557203What's this Lee guy problem?
>>11557203Cool guy no 3
>>11557171Ah shit you got all three! Patrician tastes sir patrician tastes.
>>11557171Might also like this one.
>>11556948If it's a gift then why do we have to pay so much?

>>11557203>Mr FrohickyThey will throw this guy into next huge MOnastery for sure.
>>11546138Also "bros". That specific spelling, of course, because the illiterate smelly french ESL fuck, in addition to being incapable of using punctuation properly, also can't pluralize words ending in vowels properly.>>11546208>aDjUsT fOr InFlAtIoNFuck off with this cope phrase forever, please.
I was eyeing the LKC before its retirement, but the dollhouse format and the female knights felt like too much of a humiliation ritual
>>11557628when is that Supergirl movie coming out? next Summer? or earlier?you think they'd do a generic Supergirl set (not from the movie) just to get a small movie-tie-in without committing to it?also lmao at the DC Fandome 2020 exclusive Supergirl in a carded package worth thousands of dollars to collectors, Lego gave here a double-sided head print. Like anybody will open it up to see lol
>>11557647Ironically, licensed sets are the few that are spared from DEI. Hard to make Han Solo black. But then again, most of the new stormtroopers are brown females. Oh and they managed to make Irene Adler in the Sherlock Holmes booknook a frizzy-haired black woman in Victorian England. It's so comical how whites hate themselves.
>>11556981>soi trek bugman thinks he has any sort of high ground over soi wars bugmenKek, worth it just for the tard slapfight.
>>11557649Why would you give any kryptonian character a double-sided head print and not have the second one have red eyes?
I honestly do not know what the point of Lego is anymore. It was better when it was just a building toy for kids imaginations.
>>11557203Cole status?
>>11556908love TNG but this Picard face sucks so hard I don't what it is, maybe cause he doesn't have the shitty balding hair or Patrick Stewarts huge nose
>>11557732I'm glad they chose a regular head with no bald "hairpiece" (heh) it makes him look more "Lego"similar to Geordi having his visor printed on the head and not part of a new hair piece (which might have looked more accurate, but less "Lego")I am worried about the printing on the black torsos not matching the arms though. it's $400 they better not cheap-out on thin ink. but as Data would say, the odds of that are 650,320 to 1 that Lego will use thin ink and the torsos won't match the arms on any of those
>>11556908You already know the colors wont matchI remember hearing about the founder of Lego getting pissed at his son when he cheaped out on paint and painted their wooden toy twice instead of the required three, and made him repaint the entire batch all over againOle Kirk Kristiansen is rolling in his grave seeing the current state of Lego
Try that in a small town! The Brickiki County Police don't take kindly to that big city crime. Don't try speedin' off in that financed hellcat.

I expect lego to make sets like this, just like Mega did. I do hope these sets will be far cheaper than the $400 enterprise
>>11557838
>>11557838>>11557839Lego KNOWSif they make sets like these,reasonably affordable,then the $400 EnterpriseWILL NOT SELLLego would rather sell ONE $400 setthan TEN $40 setsthe other sets will be Brickheads and like a Tricorder or Phaser or something without any minigfigs.Star Trek fans will go bonkers for a brick-built Ressikan Flute that has a sound brick that plays Picard's little tune. (the flute might come with the Picard minifig but it will still be a $100 set)
>>11557878I mean, lego has to make the original series crew though
>>11557878>Star Trek fans will go bonkers for a brick-built Ressikan Flute that has a sound brick that plays Picard's little tune. (the flute might come with the Picard minifig but it will still be a $100 set)I'd buy it on discount
Zelda chads...
>>11557900OMG WHAT IS LEGO DOING!!!!!??????they DON'T use the hairpiece OR the SWORD?!!I did not buy the treeI will NEVER spend $300 on a Lego set (unless I win the lottery or something)I WOULD have bought this onenow... I won'tit's insane!!!Link has the exact same torso and legs!??they could have EASILY given him a new outfit, same hairpiece, and given the rich people who already bought the tree a reason to get this cheap set, too. if you somehow DID buy the tree, there's literally NO reason to buy thisthis better be AI slop rage bait, because it worked on me, as rage bait.(LMAO when that hairpiece that looks like it's, at the very least, a new color for that hairpiece, will be in a $10 City set, too)
>>11557905You know this >>11557900 is a custom set, right?
>>11557905>Custom Set>12345
>>11557905>ai slopNice to shit on the work of real people with AI comparisons. The creator’s name is literally on the box art. I fucking hate this current wave of morons calling CGI “AI,” and referring to hand-drawn images, Photoshop, or Blender work as “AI slop.”I hate tech bros so much it’s unreal and I work in tech.
>>11557906>>11557907I fell for the rage bait.I kinda feel like an idiot, but Lego has me with such low expectations I was fooled easily>>11557908I only meant AI as an easy term for "made up by somebody" I didn't mean to imply that hard work making me look like an idiot was easy for them. I apologize for that
Holy shit guys we get marvel rivals sets!
>>11557909Just don't use ai slop, normies use it too much and it gets annoying. Modern lego sucks
>>11557910>>11557911yeah nice try, would have known that's not real:-)the Zelda one was more believable as something Lego would truly have messed up
>>11557900Lego did expensive Tallneck set then did pic related, why can't they do the same with Zelda?Also, will we get more Horizon sets or not? The building experience was great.
>>11557914I have a friend who is a huge fan of that game, but I myself have not played itit seems like the sets they made are random enemies. is there a final boss they could do a set for? I don't know. or any villain minifig characters?
>>11557915There are a lot
>>11557912calling the mountains and mountains of garbage churned out by brainless ai users and corpos "slop", is probably the most valid use of the term in this entire trend of throwing it around like a buzzword
>star trek on a budgetI now realize that majority of classic space fans are star trek fans and the second lego does trek sets they srop caring about classic space
>>11557918Problem is they call everything ai slop nowadays, I do photography and sometimes people comment ai slop to my pics even though they are REAL
>>11557878>>11557905Are you the same guy from /tv/ /trek/ threads?I saw a post that was similar to yours
>>11557919I can't even stand thinking about that year-ago when Lego did SPACE across all their sets... imagine if those were all Star TREK sets instead? it would have been glorious!
>>11557923busted!lol can you tell how mad I am? (sad really)I so much want Star Trek Lego but cannot afford $400it's like Lego themselves are laughing at me calling me a cheap loser. how can a company bully me like this? it's not fair!!!>>11557912and my apology was genuine. I actually like AI Art in general, I used that term in my anger, and I regret it
>>11557926I hate ai, I hate whenthey call actual human work as cheap ai slopSame, I hate lego prices too. This is what we deserve for having paypigs
>>11557919>they srop caring about classic spacethere is no classic space, the new space sets are shit.

I really wish lego would release a series of somewhat generic nature scenery sets. It'd be cool to have things like that, which you could place vehicles/buildings/minifigs/whatever and make full scenes, the way MOC builders do. You could have ocean/shoreline sets for things like pirate builds, forest, rocky outcropping, desert for a star wars tatooine scene, etc. It's just annoying trying to do these completely on your own, needing to figure out all the exact pieces you would need and try to do an efficient bricklink order
>>11558031>translation: I am lazy, lego pls spoonfed me
>>11557878True, its the lego Zelda strategy. Rather than a full lineup, just do a single 300 dollar set. That way all the minifig autists are forceforced to buy that set for their link/Zelda figs. If those figs were available in 20 dollar sets instead, they wouldn't bother with the $300 one
>>11558027>>11558022you are retarded
>>11557748They absolutely will cheapen out on the paint. Look at the han solo in the 1000 dollar death pancake. The flesh tone at the top of his chest is faint and doesn't match the color of his head because it's printed on black
>>11558034Basically yeah. I'm okay designing these on my own but it's not possible to just get a bunch of tan/dark tan slopes/angles/wedges/plates/tiles in a standalone pack. I must want an easily acceaccessible way to buy starter packs of stuff like that. You could make the same laziness argument about literally every released set
>>11558017>Hey kids we can spend $300 on a whole bunch of different Lego sets, or buy a single lame dollhouse tree.
>>11557988>>11557989Imagine being the child of an Afool, Christmas comes around and you're really excited to decorate the tree. Then one day your fag dad comes home with this thing and says "this will be our tree from now on, isn't it cool?". You build it in a couple of hours and it's tiny as shit. Dad won't even let you play with it because "you will decrease its resale value". And then you put it back in the box until next year when Lego release a $500 Christmas Tree.
>>11558031BlueBrixx has a whole bunch of pirate-themed island sets that consist of modular segments that can be turned into larger islands with beaches, rocks or whatever.https://www.bluebrixx.com/en/all-themes/adventure/pirates/treasure-coast-legends/
>>11558047>opens fruit flavoured IPA>"my wife's boyfriend said he will buy me the new Lego tree!"
>>11558048That's perfect, do they also do other environments? And how's the brick quality? I haven't tried any bootlego since decades ago getting shitty megablocks
>>11557924It would have sunk the company in a matter of years. Star Trek doesn't sell.
>>11556916I'm fairly sure that was a cope after how bad everyone said it was.
>>11558060Star TREK doesn't have the same "action figure exclusive" nonsense that Star WARS does.Lego could make a simple $20 set with all the color torsos. one set for each style of uniform, to represent each show. maybe different sets with uniforms for the enemies. Klingons, Romulans, Borg, etc.buy the minifigs, make your own sets. make your own crewLego wouldn't need to make "planet [blank] from episode [blank]" the simple figure sets would sell like crazy.Trek fans are more likely to enjoy a toy that is full of the core values of the show it would be based on: exploration & engineering, creativity. Lego should be proud to support a show with matching values of a hopeful future where everyone has elevated morals. it's the ultimate "woke" before that was even a termyou're not wrong to point out that historically, Trek action figures don't sell at all. But I think Lego could be the exception, and I'd like to see them try. ultimately, it wouldn't be that big of a deal for them to experiment with it.
>>11558060>Star Trek doesn't sell.look at the utter shit that sells faggot
>>11558058They are Xingbao bricks. Judging by the sets I have, there is nothing to complain about. But if you want Lego bricks, there are free pdf instructions with part lists on the website. So you could go and order your bricks elsewhere and just save yourself the design work. There are no other types of terrain in the shop. There is a western theme, but no separate landscapes.
>flowers and random cars are some of the best selling sets>a franchise next to star wars won't sell
>>11558080I want trek to do well too but it’s never going to compete with the Star Wars level of autism and despite several animated shows now Star Trek doesn’t hit with kids as well because it’s more of a thinker. If they’d have done both 25 years ago Trek might have a chance but we all know they’re going to fuck it up. The $400 enterprise solidifies it. You’re never going to get to build your own crew or ships or have a fleet or romulan a or borg or Klingons in any number to be fun. Just accept it’ll suck and you’ll be disappointed by literally anything they put out and you MIGHT get surprised by a $20-60 set that only half sucks… but it’ll be based on Discovery and black and trans.
>>11558099>Star Trek doesn’t hit with kidsright, that's why most SW sets are 18+ targeted to boomers, bc SW hits so well with kids.>because it’s more of a thinker. faggot
>>11558103I’d wager a majority of the soiwars sets are based off of Disney fan fiction and that clone wars animated series now or video games. If you want something from the original trilogy you’re going to pay for a $1000 disk or $500 for a big brown turd Jabba’s sail barge with indentured servant leia. Even your precious onion wars is a far cry from the original.

What happened to tiny sets of big buildings that aren't expensive or trying to be exact replicas, but rather a more impressionist copy or homage to something? Like the old police stations they did for City?
>>11558135>but rather a more impressionist copy or homage to somethingYou just described the "Death Star".
>>11558047>>11558055This never happens. The whole point is that it's a wholesome activity to do with your kids together. See >>11558130 where there is clearly a normal Christmas tree present as well. I don't know why you guys have to be so bitter and cynical all the time. You can drop the "4chan" schtick sometimes and just act normal, this isn't /b/, it's a fucking Lego thread on /toy/.

>>11558139>it's a wholesome activity to do with your kids together.KIDS! Break out your ipads!
>>11558139You absolute fucking retard.I wholly remember what I wanted to play with as a kid and it sure wasn't some faggot ass toy Christmas decoration. As much as I loved Christmas as a kid I would not have looked twice at some tiny ass boring shit tree, as an adult I sure as fuck would not spend $300 on this shit when I could invest a bit more and buy a videogame console instead. If it was meant to be kid-friendly, they would do something interesting with the theme like a mech-santa that battles krampus or some shit and mark it for $100 at most. You really think kids will be excited about a display piece with faggot ass elves? The cutesy "oh it will look great in our living room!" is very obvious AFOL bait.It's a TOY. When I wanted some Lego or other brick toy as a kid it was stuff that could be played with like a castle or a pirate ship. and it would cost less than half of this thing. Lego purposely designed this to be 3k pieces to change an insane price for it and every adult out there will lose their shit and buy it. But I assure you, no kid will ask for this for Christmas. Hell no parents will go "hmmm let's get this shit for Timmy as a Christmas present" when it costs fucking $300,at that price point you're more than likely getting them a videogame console instead or some cheaper Lego Nu-Wars set.
>>11558178>>11558185>>11558186This is like Disney admitting their new movie is "Made with Artificial Intelligence!"whoever sold them that printerwhatever material they are using in that printerthey are the new product to aspire to.the Lego 3D Printer machine is the End Game now, if it's the same "quality" as the rest of Lego?it's over for Lego.printer+material=infinite Lego?while Lego tries to sell you $1000 sets?(we've already seen that $1700 printer that prints on bricks with 100% matching accuracy.)
>>11558236calm down faggot, 3d printing is extremely expensive and has shit quality. they will only use it for a few tiny special pieces. it's just a bait for collectors.
>>11558236all 3d-printed pieces so far had rough surfaces.
Why doesn't Lego do battle packs anymore? Like non-Star Wars, I mean. Why can't I pay ten bucks for like 4 pirates or knights or whatever?
>>11558120https://brickset.com/article/124758/lego-40843-family-christmas-tree-revealed!even the biggest lego cucks are saying they are not getting it and it being too expensive>>11558248>Why can't I pay ten bucks for like 4 pirates or knights or whatever?bc collectors will pay $100 for those figures
>>11558248They own the secondary market and will buy out any competitive knockoffs or litigate them to death. They have no financial incentive to do a battle pack that’s not some brown clone.
>>11558178>>11558240>>11558245ah, I see now...it's like they are addressing the threat in their own product.they include it themselves, so they can demonstrate how inferior it isnobody will even think about 3D printing their own bricks after seeing how bad they look next to the real Lego you just boughtbravo, Lego
>>115582482024 Ninjago set had 4 minifigs for $10(this year's $10 Ninjago set had 3 minifigs)
I bought a random old CMF figure for $8 and pulled this chick. Pretty happy with it
>>11558279Sexy
>>11558120>>11558123lol at those few people who were like"so cute I have to collect ALL of the Lego Squishmallows!"I do like the Classic Space Logo Xmas sweater, but it's not worth $300, obviously
>>11558120>reindeer not-Squishmallow>snowman not-Squishmallow>green space helmet>green oxygen tubes>green knight helmet>gift pattern shieldDid I kiss something?
>>11558178>official bootleg pieces are thing a nowThe absolute state of Lego
>>11558248>Why doesn't Lego do battle packs anymore? Like non-Star Wars, I mean. Why can't I pay ten bucks for like 4 pirates or knights or whatever?Considering the release of the new Castle factions, it's likely they will make a return with a new Castle line next year. That's the speculation.
>>11558325you can get a blue classic space Christmas sweater in the 2025 City Advent calender.
>>11558437not the same but still kinda coolhonestly good job on the Advent Calendars this year, they made a new exclusive special molded Tree Mascot Costume piece, an unexpected move (?!)those calendars used to be a dumping ground of leftover pieces (like okay you didn't buy the $150 set to get Omega from the Bad Batch, let's toss her in the calendar...)
$380Eight miniffigs(9, they count the angel masthead figure as one)"...but we need to stop at some point."LMAOcan we get more than 8 tho???there's another eye-rolling bit where he ducks the name question as "internal decision" nonsense but mentions he added "Captain" in front of "Jack Sparrow's Pirate Ship" so.... yeah. they almost left out "Captain"...
>>11558362My money is on it being Kingdoms again. I’m not sure if it is going to be >Kraken and Griffon or >Serpent and HorseEither is fine even though I’d rather just have fright knights or fantasy castle again
What's the blue line on Baron Von Barron meant to be?
>>11558733No idea. Is it visible on any of his other variants?
>>11558733>>11558739Nope, it's only on that shirt
>>11558733Oh I found it. He's wearing an officer's uniform from the second boer war, and that blue line must be the rope attached to his pistol. Kinda makes sense since Johnny also has a pistol in his print.
>>11558081Yeah and that says it all about how unmarketable Star Trek is.
>>11558477>put in the dumb nigger bitch that has 3 minutes of screentime from the 1st movie>but not the most iconic duo of the entire franchiseFuck them. You could even have removed the midget if they were really that concerned about figure count and keep it at 8. Ooooh they can only have 8 figures because reasons but on the fucking arkham asylum with is $80 less they have DOUBLE the amount of characters. Seriously fuck this gay companyTheir naming decision was also likely just some dumb SEO bullshit.
>>11558477I was 100% sure Lego would have a GWP with Pintel and Ragetti in a rowboat just to get people to buy the set at release. But no, they got axed.
>>11558743>>11558764Okay I did some digging to find the origin of this black uniform, but it's less obvious. If any other Anons know their war history, please correct me. The best match among British uniforms is just a black police uniform. The Baron doesn't seem like one to serve the community, but I could see him with the RIC during the Irish war of independence. The next closest match I could find were German WWII uniforms. Now he is known to speak German, but WWII seems a little late for Adventurers, and would make the other uniform an heirloom. It is possible as an intentional parallel with Indiana Jones though.

Lego trying to pass this off as a classic set is just sad and disgusting.>too big>too many pieces>too overdesigned>too many smooth pieces>retarded design>no reason to be 18+
the original set>more creative design with much less parts>actually looks like lego, minimal use of smooth bricks>the buggy isn't overdesigned>achieves the same with much less parts while looking much better
>>11558955>>11558950The new one looks better, it just was a different time. Remaking the same sets just bare bones wouldn't just work today, it wold be like Sony making the same PSP for 40 years
>>11558950Soul
>want to buy Lion Knight's Castle>my countries lego store sold out (as well a resellers)>other lego stores don't send outside of their country, can't even use a mailbox service>bricklink listings are overpriced + fees + they want 60 € for shipping>cheapest I can find is 450 € online from the Netherlands or I need to drive 7 hours (there and back) to a neighbouring country to get it for 400does anyone know any big resellers in the EU that are sending to other countries?
>>11559009I saw some on Vinted, they could ship abroad.Otherwise try ebay but I don't trust it.
>>11559015No sellers for it on ebay that are EU based.On vinted I am being segregated based on location so I can only buy from locals and from Poland/Slovakia I think and there is no listing there either. Guess I am doomed to the 450€
>>11558764>>11558863>Baron von Barron is BritishWhat
>>11559018New set costs 400 euros on the Lego store in my cunt, 450 is not even that bad
>>11559053Well it's 50€ more than it should be to start and no lego points and gwp
>>11558950>>11558955Ironic that the newer set has few specialized pieces than the original
>>11559018Okay I found it on galaxus.de and with using mailbox.de it will come to around 430€. I will have to live with this as I don't think I will be able to find it for cheaper
>>1155918012eur cheaper and you'll get the sega controller as gifthttps://www.lego.com/de-de/product/lion-knights-castle-10305
>>11559193I can't use mailbox.de or similar services, official lego stores have a policy not to ship to them unfortunately
>>11559033>Has a German name>Speaks German >Is actually part of the English nobilityMany such cases
>>11558387SHE'S BUILT. AND THATS THE WAY. IT. IS.
>Exclusive minifig to the most expensive set in the theme>Fan favorite hype and aura character >Put into a super srs business adult box>Don't bother with a unique hat mold with a white plume >No cross necklace (although he does technically still have it with the gold knife)How did they fumble this so hard?
>>11560050Baratie shouldn't have been a set and they should had just done a zoro and mihawk battlepack with mihawk's boat.
>>11560050put Mihawk next to Barbosa and it's even more frustrating. Barbosa looks perfect and Mihawk looks like he's from 15 years agoI think it was "clever" of Lego to remove religious cross from minifig torso (which is mostly harmless but they still probably wanted to avoid it for "internal decisions") but I think the tiny knife should have been printed on a clear 1x1 flat round tile, to make it look as small as possible. clipping it in the hand might eventually scratch off the paint, but you could have them hold it flat and it would still look alright.hilarious to think that Lego will make a better version later, and that one will be in a $900 set. hey, at least you got this one for only $330(or reverse-hilarious if they put the better version in a Mihawk & Boat Polybag for only $5??!! and you wanted him so bad you bought the $330 set hahahahaha)
>>11560070I'm hoping they do a CMF series of One Piece based off the anime designs, but I imagine there's a lot of red tape with Toei and Bandai in the way. I just want a Kizaru minifig man.
>>11560189on the one hand, Lego already has the hat/hair piece, it seems like crazy easy to re-color that in super-bright yellow, and print different torsos. Lego could get more money's-worth out of those molds But on the other hand, they already did Luffy, and a bright yellow hat might confuse poor little kids (sarcasm) eeeehhhhh,,, it's good enough. (more sarcasm)I bet bright-yellow Luffy Hat shows up in the Lego Store build-a-figure bins. can you imagine the chaos that would cause??!
>>11558950it doesn't say "classic" anywhere on the box, it's obviously supposed to be a more detailed remake of the original. if you prefer the original you should just buy that
>>11560050>>11560291I don’t know anything about the source material but these are extraordinarily ugly minifigures
>>11560642a long time ago I tried to watch the One Piece anime, and it was awful. that's what I remembered about it. the main guy's English dub voice was grating in the worst way. I had to stop watching after only a couple episodes.years later Netflix decides to make a live action version. how can this be so popular? I couldn't even watch the anime. meh, let's give this a shot.Yes.The Netflix version is great.maybe the anime would have gotten better if I would have stuck with it? it's got a thousand episodes or something, I don't know. other people must have liked it enough to get a thousand episodes out of it.but at least the Netflix version is good, and worthy of getting Lego sets. although I do understand how people who have watched all thousand anime episodes are upset the sets are based on the simple and new 8-episode Netflix version. truly an ouch.
>>11560687Don't watch the dub, early episodes especially they were made by 4kids and took a lot of liberties.One Piece becomes amazing by around the water 7 arc (250-300 ep.) and then it's just ramps up and you basically watch the next 200 episodes in like a week because you can't stop. It's a huge investment but it's totally worth it.
Lol
>>11560527>>11558981>>11558991>actually defending that ugly piece of shit>a black brick>that will be $100
>>11560786>One Piece becomes amazing by around the water 7 arc (250-300 ep.)lmao>and then it's just ramps up and you basically watch the next 200 episodes in like a weekbecause 190 are just filler where nothing happensit's another shonenshit with 90% of filler episodes and everything dragging out forever
>>11560527>if you prefer the original you should just buy that>$200-300>$1000 sealed>the ugly new one $100thanks for nothing retard
Is it worth it or should I buy Italian Riviera instead?
>>11560984Feels like a set from a contender.
>>11560786>just dunk 90 hours into and it’ll get goodThis is why no one likes you.Weebs are the worst sunk victims other than trannies.
>>11560786>Don't watch the dubI've watched subtitled anime before, but if there's an English-speaking option, I would much rather prefer that. staring at the screen 100% of the time can be exhausting (especially for 1000 episodes!)>One Piece becomes amazing by around the water 7 arc (250-300 ep.) and then it's just ramps up and you basically watch the next 200 episodes in like a week because you can't stop.>It's a huge investment but it's totally worth ityikessorry that sounds like a lot. I might just wait until Netflix catches up.do you know how "fast" Netflix is going? Like, were the 8 episodes of live action worth 8 episodes of the anime? or did the live action version cover like, 60 anime episodes worth of story?
>>11558764>>11558863Good sleuthing, anon
>>11560968the original is also a black brick.>>11560982are you too stupid to know how to part sets out?
>>11561195>do you know how "fast" Netflix is going?according to chatgpt>Netflix’s One Piece live-action (Season 1) covers the first ~45 episodes of the anime
>>11561382Is that bad or is it like DBZ where Goku is working out in a spaceship or traversing the dragon’s back for half a season each?
>>11561195I love the copes Weebs make to justify their shitty anime fetishes. The reason you hate the “dubbed” version is because when you hear the shitty dialogue in English and watch 400 episode story arch (97% filler episodes) in your native language you realize how cringe and pathetic anime is.Also, why do Mexicans like anime and moby? I know one of you will know.
>>11561785japanese put high emphasis to have good sounding voice actors while english ones are the cheapest they can get. still lots of anime retards hate dubs for no reason besides not being japanese even when the dub is ok.
>>11561320>the original is also a black brick.it's not you disingenuous retard>are you too stupid to know how to part sets out?you are a retard
Any ideas what th 2026 CMFs will be? (Besides the animal costumes one)
>>11561823I accept your concession.
>>11560984Did anyone realize how all signs and letters on recent LEGO sets are in print, not in cursive?God this chocolate factory wouldve looked more authentic if the signs are in some fancy cursive lettersWhy ate they all in prints?
>>11561950kids can't read cursive anymore, they barely teach it in school, only enough so kids can do a signature for documents, then that's all they knowI heard they do math in a crazy new way, tooI agree, the cursive letters would be more accurate to an old-time shoppe, it even says 1928 on the sign, people back then knew how to do fancy letters. see? it's not just AI that ruins details, real people can do it, too!
I just recently got back into LEGO.Back in my childhood I was fond of the vikings, the pirates and the early Harry Potter sets. Bionicles too. I've begun collecting the recent 2024 sets of HP to put all the castle bits together. Went to the Butterbeer Stand free build last week which was pretty cool. Although I have to say it is sort of annoying to figure out which sets go with what, since a lot of the sets from like 2020 and up look like they can fit in too (but apparently between 2020 and 2024 there have been 3 different castle combinations? Idk.)I also think the recent christmas stuff has been cool, so I picked up some of those. Also got this cool pumpkin truck for Halloween. Something about it just has me totally in love with it. Really creative. I also have been into the Disney sets where they've been making the castles and stuff into micro models, like Agrabah or the Haunted Mansion. The TRON Lightcycle set was cool as hell too.Anyway, LEGO is cool and I'm glad to be back in it. Gotta keep my collection and themes to a minimum, though. Cheers lads.
Might as well Move>>11562955>>11562955>>11562955
>>11546191Looks nice. I’ve always loved the Rebel troopers. Is that the newest U-Wing set? I thought it seemed too small when I saw the first pictures of it but it looks good here.
>>11541711Holy shit! I'm buying one of these later
