>>11571221Ok, what are the chances we get a bunch of Trek sets in 2026 for anniversary? They could do a few like TOS Enterprise because we need the original series crew. A Klingon ship maybe? Hopes?
Hopes? Predictions?
>>11571221I WANT MORE KLINGONS
Fuck off frenchshill
>>11571238that'll be $400 for each one!thanks, Lego!I really wanted to spend two thousand dollars to get FIVE Klingons for a MOC I was thinking of
>>11571242Aren't you tired of this? Talk lego or gtfo
>>11570853>For one lego minifig proportions would look awful for MarioThis is nonsense. You have no idea what Mario minifigures would look like until they were designed.
>>11571299>No idea at allYes, no idea at all until Lego makes them. Just look at the minifigure revisions Lego has done themselves over the years. You have to be a dumbass to think that some knockoff minifigures are the best Lego can ever make them.Again, you have no idea, just like the rest of us.

>>11571334I hope by morning this “thread” gets removed like the last 2
>>11571334This is ridiculous, you know that, right?
>>11571329Nothing to do with lego, stop.
>>11571349>everyone I don't like is HIMI'm not your boogeyman and I hate you more. I'm tired of your made up mentally ill thread wars, this general is good. We want to talk about lego. Not your problem if we talk about lego star trek or lego pokemon. It is ours not yours. Move to another hobby.
>>11571356Amazing, so you just admit you wanna shitpost and samefag alone. You hate this general and want to see it destroyed.
>>11571356Wow, you truly are insane dude, chill
>>11571362Maybe you are just paranoid? Have you considered all of this stuff is only inside your head? I really don't give a shit about you, I laugh at you crying. Very funny, meanwhile I will still talk here about lego trek and pokemon.

Good news, the 2 wicked 18+ sets, arkham asylum and black pearl are all on backorder and top sellers.This is great news for the future of Lego!
I wanna buy this set
>>11571396
>>11571400Neat.
>>11571288this shit is so corny lol
>>11571329No one asked for your sad life story. Stop derailing the thread.
>>11571367If they don't want to see these fags fighting, they should report their off topic posts.
Why are these chinese new years sets so great?>tons of generic city minifigs and general minifig accessories>intricate yet not painfully complex builds>Decent pricing (by modern standards)why don't we get sets like this for normal city?
>>11571491It's a waste of time reporting repeating spammers. They just get three day bans, or reset their router and PC at the same time to ban evade. Hiding posts take a single second in comparison to reporting posts, which have cool-down timers attached to them if you're reporting multiple posts. It's all a fucking joke.
>>11571502Oh, well if it's just a waste of time, we should just allow these dipshits to continue spamming the thread with off topic posts until there's nothing left. And the lurkers can just hide it all. Problem solved!
Why nobody told me TrikBrix is back!!!?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aazwSnLdw2A
>>11571534who
>>11571535TrikBrix. 10/10 loegotuber who disappeared around 6 years ago after series of awesome reviews of Pirates, Space and Adventurers themes.
>>11571534This guy got me into Lego as an adult.
>>11571498it still has a toilet so...but y'know, oddly enough, it doesn't bother me so much. it kinda makes it seem more realistic, since this is a more realistic set, if that makes senseand it has a lame animal mascot head...but again, this seems the most-appropriate thing TOO HAVE a lame animal mascot head in it.it does get bonus points for the Mongolian Grill (the circular frying surface) even if it's hidden in the kitchen. that should be in the middle of the restaurant somehow, watching the people walk circles around it is part of the dining experience
Jang casually hammering home how dire the lego situation has gotten and how it didn't have to be this way
>>11571563Ever since he took sponsorships I just can’t watch him anymore.
>>11571563but the minifigures are terrible
>>11571588they're still a lego clone at heart, shit minifigs is a staple
>>11571588confirmation that Lego IS Funko slopand all people care about is the minifigswe all have bricks, we can build whatever we want. buying a new set isn't about the set, it's about the minifigs in it. you can build a plane for Tails, but you can't build a Tails Minifigure, >>11571563best "build" ever? low-low price? lights?! Lego doesn't do lights!! awesome upon awesome. no Lego Minifigures? = trash!!! the crazy part is that you could simply put your own Lego, actual Lego, Minifigures IN that set!how is the competition still failing? because nobody cares about "the build" it's all about the minifigs
>>11571588You could buy all of the Lego figs you want with the money saved on 3rd party bricks
>>11571563jang = CCPhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OjNpRbNdR7E
Well, this past week I bought 15 of the Wolfpack Beastmaster minifigs. When added all together, each minifig cost me around £7.60. I don't think I need anymore of them now as I'm planning on pre-ordering Bricklink's Outlaw Forest Den in the next couple of weeks, which come with eight Wolfpack minifigs.
>>11571661As a side note, anyone who wants to buy 13 of them for £95 can get them here, which is cheaper than what I bought them for, around £7.30 each.https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/388885270686
Lego pokemon broke this gen lolCan't wait for pics
>>11571607>all people care about is the minifigsAnd why is that a bad thing? Maybe if sets had more unique pieces or actual prints it would make the bricks more valuable. But it'd always just a shit ton of 1x1 pieces.
>>11571341You know that keeping up this act is gonna end up bad.
>>11571662I really wanted to like this but it's just so bad and I can't get over it
>>11571702what don't you like?I think the piece count is grossly inflated in a sweaty moc builder way, but I still like it and I'll buy it. Excited for alchemist shop and dustmark keep too.
>>11571702>I really wanted to like this but it's just so bad and I can't get over itWhat's bad about it? A ragtag band setting up base in an abandoned tower and cave?
>>11571708>Excited for alchemist shop and dustmark keep tooDustmark Keep is on my list of purchases, but that's going to be a long wait until it is available.
>>11571710
>>11571727
>>11571728
I just read reviews after building this are all youtubers so whiny and basedinfused?i mean i fucking love this thingthis is pure cinema
>>11571729
>>11571731
>>11571732
I want pieces that glow in the dark.
>>11571733
>>11571737
>>11571738
>>11571534he's been back for around a year now
>>11571741Yes, I see. I'm checking his videos now. The quality went up so much omg. He even creates background builds to use in his videos.
>>11571687I've been interested in new cool pieces beforebut I can't remember when I did that recently...
>>11571708>>11571709It's just too busy. It doesn't have a coherent design, it's hurting my eyes when I look at itDustmark keep looks better but it suffers a different extreme, it is too bland/streamlined design so it's still not calling to me to buy it. Alchemist shop looks probably the best out of the 3
Why did Lego skip to TNG instead of making TOS sets? It just makes no fucking sense.Like, when people think of Star Trek, they think of TOS, right?Personally, I'd like animated series and Lower Decks sets for minifigures of M'ress and T'ana.
>>11571662>>11571702>>11571708>>11571755these little holes in the rock wall stick out as "not what a real Lego Employee designer would do"
>>11571764Weyoun voice: "Now now, there's no need to worry. I'm sure the Founders will make all Trek series, eventually. Even sets from that space station you're so fond of."it's NEXT year that's the 60th anniversary, so it makes sense to "save" the original series crew until next year. if Lego is smart (debatable) it will release on Sept 8th, 2026
>>11571784>bovidFuck off
>>11571730Everyone is getting pissed about prices and it’s affecting the reviews
>>11571327Fake.
>>11571784>791 pieces>$110 dear god marvel is just as bad as SW now jesus christ
>>11571789every Lego review:WOW! This set is amazing! it's so perfect and detailed. they even did [thing]!the figures are amazing! it's got [character]! but I wish they would have included [character] then it would have been perfectbut ouch the price! I can't recommend it for the price, but if you can find it on sale, then it's a great set.that's every Lego review in a nutshell. (including more rage on the price for the Star Wars reviews)
>>11571801i mean do you anons get sets from lego store?i always wait a month or two to get it for like 80-75% price from local stores
>>11571805where do you live, that Lego gets marked down 80% after 2 months?I've seen Walmart and Target do about-a-year before they start to clearance a theme, and then you're lucky to see it half-off before they disappearand yes, the majority of my sets are 50% off at clearance (sometimes you can get a lucky 70% off at Target)
>>11571812How popular is the Lego girls theme, because there's always pages of the stuff in the Lego catalogues (around 30 pages total).
>think it's Overpriced statue>it's actually kinoIt's a shame lego doesn't actually make normal LOTR sets anymore (or castle sets for that matter), could you imagine if they made battle packs for Orcs and Gondor? or Rohan Cavalry? hell, I'd kill for a new castle theme with those old castle wall panels so I can make a custom helm's deep
>>11571812east of germany, i mean isnt that normal?are you seriously paying the lego tax price?i mean its a meme in my country to buy from official lego store, side stores get the inventory after release in like 1 to 3 months, then price is always reduced
>>11571822this is the ultimate lotr set that mogs rivendell by a gigantic marginor im just dark lord biasedbtw how long will it take me if balrog took me 6 hours with a little help at the end?
>>11571830It's 2.7ft high, so it's a big boy that's for sure.
>>11571821I can only guessmight be "I don't know what to get this girl for [holiday] how about a Lego set?" it's girly, science-y, creative, "fun", all kinds of things. and nobody knows what to get them at that age (?)boys, too. I have a feeling that half of all Lego sales are gifts from people who don't know what else to get the kid, and everybody loves Lego, right?
>>11571827lucky youin America we have Walmarts and Targets, two giant department stores, and they clearance sets a few times a year. usually takes 1 year after a set is released to hit clearance.they start at like, 15% off. that's when you try and hide a few lol. they creep down to 25% off, and it's a crazy game of waiting for less, or risking it will vanish. if it hits 50% off, that's usually the time to pounce on it. if you risk it, next week it could be 80, even 90% off! AHH!!! Jackpot! but usually it's gone, and you argh that you missed it.sometimes the Lego store tempts you with a GWP and you roll your eyes that you need to buy full-priced sets, but I can't remember the last time that happened to me personally (the GWPs are like $200 now? no way!)
>>11571866>sometimes the Lego store tempts you with a GWPif minas tirith has witch king then im gonna fold on releasei dont even have space for it but fuck italsois sauron only in barad dur? it has never been in older sets right?
>>11571871Theres a Sauron bust coming, he might be in that but yeah
>>11571893so if i have balrog, fell beast and barad dur, am i missing any evil sets from the new lotr ideas line?i like evil
Can you people log into Bricklink with your username? After the shitty integration I've only managed to do it with my email.
>>11571272I just want a Lego Yoshi that looks somewhat, even vaguely, like Lego Rex. Every other off-brand Yoshi is that same soulless Story design.
>>11571783>BAJORANS! There could be Bajorans here.
>>11571821You have no idea how popular it really is. It's one of LEGO's biggest sellers. Absolutely massive silent demographic. I didn't realize myself until my sisters started asking for tons of Friends and Disney for their birthdays and Christmas last year. It's still their number one toy.
I'm feeling nostalgic for Lego Harry Potter and I'd like to purchase a set now that I have my big play table and my box of bricks from my childhood back.What's the best, on the market (or recently on the market) HP set? Cost is no issue to me however if it doesn't trouble anyone too much I'd like to hear a range of selections with a different budget.I know this is a weird ask but I'd just like to hear from people who know what they're talking about rather than some shill Reddit post or a totally-not-sponsored YouTube video.
>>11572006nostalgic ones are when HP characters had yellow heads
>>11572006Dumbledores office is a great place to start and relatively affordable still.
>>11571753>go to add this part to my BL wanted list>still locked out of account merging
>>11572009I just barely escaped the yellow characters for SW and HP. I remember when I was young looking at all the "old" HP sets and thinking "Those look like lame old people toys". They were only a few years old and now it's like twenty years on... "my" sets are old now... time isn't real...>>11572011That looks way more sophisticated than anything I saw back then. Thank you very much!
>>11572006You just missed the big annual LEGO Harry Potter sale, unfortunately. Wait until November or January to get post-Halloween or post-Xmas discounts respectively.
>>11571948Nobody cares to design anything anymore
>>11572022Pair it with a couple of these and you’ve got a decent start of a dollhouse castle. I also dig the forbidden forest set.
>>11572049These and some Draco polybags I got for a $1.50 each on clearance make a nice little spooky forest.
>>11571805>Dukat - Founder - Weyoun.jpgIs that image from some show?...I'm asking for a friend.
>>11571805Is that image from some show?...I'm asking for a friend.
>>11572038Oh really? Well, I'll see if I can find some discounts anyway.>>11572049>>11572050Thank you my friend. I'll have a look for polybags too.
>>11572060
>>11572050>>11572049Same guy as last time? Also fuck man is it only 16 bucks?
>>11572053>>11572052>>11571993>>11571783Star Trek: Deep Space Ninethose are some of the recurring villains, fan-favorite typescobbled together from real Lego pieces, kinda close, and way less than the $600 they would have cost in a set
>>11572091>same guy as last timeI’m the only one that stumps for HP so likely. >>11572097Oh dude I know! I do hope they do a Tony Todd or Jeffery Combs in something. Between the two they’ve done 12 characters on 5-6 different series.
>>11572107>I do hope they do a Tony Todd or Jeffery Combs in somethingteeeechnically they already didJeffrey Combs voiced a Lego Scarecrow andTony Todd voiced a Lego Darkseidin Lego DC moviesI know it's not the same thing, but I also hope Lego does enough 'Trek sets to get around to them eventually
>>11571563Light kit for Lego sets like that are 90 to 170 in addition to set
>>11571753You’re fucked.
>>11572115Shaka when the walls fell.
>>11571783Attention Bajoran workers
if i buy this am i onions infused?i know wicked brick is prob better but shit is fucking overpirced as fuck and this company makes it in my country
>>11572210forgot the image
>>11572211>>11572210is that shit glued together
>>11572213anon do you have eyes?
>>11571993>Attention Major Kira, I fucked your mother. That is all.
>>11571736Agents
>>11571607It's more complicated than that. As a child, I wanted the sets to play with or assimilate into my larger hodgepodge builds. As a grown-up, I know that I have amassed enough bricks to create basically whatever I want (albeit in an inconsistent rainbow color). So if I'm buying a set now, it's because I don't want to play with it or use it for parts (display only), or because the minifigs and set playability is enough to warrant purchasing the set contents upmarked.There are definitely some people who only buy sets for the figures though. In particular, Marvel and Star Wars fans often seem really insistent on having every minifig or even every variation of every figure. I think it's pretty silly.
How can I save up money to buy all icons lotr sets lads? Ideas?
>>11572280Depends on a few things.1. How much do you make in a month, after tax?2. What other recreational (non household / non upkeep) purchases do you make in a month?3. Are you interested in buying used or do you want to buy new?
>>11572280Charge $1 per dick sucked and suck 1000 dicks.
>>11572298>$1Isn't that too little? Atleast $10? $20? $50???
Is trashbro here ?Look what i found in an old suitcase from an attic?If anyone can ID the orange piece you get a (you) and a picture of comfy LEGO?
>>11572097Sorry, I tried to cover that first one. I was asking about the robot cat. Took a bit of digging but found her name is 808 from Hi-Fi Rush. But that trio of minifigs is a pretty cool recreation.
>>11571221Apparently we get 3 sets based on pokemon z-a
>>11572302x112, specifically the one from the mermaid cmf since that's the only one that came in regular orange
>>11572318Wheres that info from? Sounds cool

>I can't bring myself to buy a $50 set now when in the past I'd buy a $200 set with not thoughtWtf is happening to me? Money are not s problem tho but I just can't see myself buy a $50 set now...because something feels wrong, the moeny's worth I dunno

It do be like that.Dukat was always down with the swirl.Take the war hero Dumar pill.>dedicated civil servant >xenophobic>stands up to his boss when halfbreed daughter refuses to join cardassians >developed depression and alcoholism due to puppet regime>leads resistance fighters to overthrow dominion rule>dies a hero>rallying cry for cardassians everywhere
I want a full Trek theme so bad brosThis >>11572346 sounds cool as fuck (never watched Trek btw)
>>11572321basedhttps://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=x112#T=C
>>11572339Don't overthink it, you're jsut recognising that you don't need/want an expensive set. It comes in waves for me, some months I'm really into it, other months I box my toys up and stick to books and gaming.
>>11572349I also want a full Trek theme. Every series. Every ship. Every named crew member. Every alien race. Every guest star. 4+ Lower Decks sets. The whole thing.
>>11572349Where do i get started with star trek bros. Original series?
>>11572359Honestly? I’d start Next Generation and then go back and watch the the original series. All the movies. DS9 then voyager. After that it starts to get really hit or miss. I enjoyed enterprise. Most did not. I do not enjoy brave new worlds or discovery. Lower decks is pretty decent but prodigy is terrible. I feel like I’m forgetting something obvious. Oh Picard is not horrible the first season then goes off the rails.
>>11572280>How can I save up money to buy all icons lotr sets lads? Ideas?Do what the PS5 Bros do to secure one.
>>11572280buy them bootleg
>>11572403Never
>>11571534Trik Brix is GOAT reviewer
>Rebuild the galaxy>Brickverse>Lego Batman: Legacy of the Dark KnightI'm really liking the new series and video games that encourage kids to mash their sets sets together recently, and people say modern Lego and licensed themes stifle creativity. But are they going to make any other with licensed themes?Imagine the possibilities, I'd personally like a Sonic series, imagine the possibilities. What if Sonic was evil? What if Tails was brown? What if there was multiples Knuckles' species? What if Amy was a robot? I'd call it Rebuild the Zones.
>>11572464you're not slick, Penders
Friendly reminder: Sonic + Lego + Pokémon = Devil’s Triad of autism.
>>11572466Dude careful he’ll sue.
>>11572476Why?
I love lego
>>11572466I'm meming, I know it's not going to happen. Especially since Penders has locked so many things down.>>11572499Because that's what created Chris Chan.
>>11572346/trek/ chads from /tv/ were the greatest thing to come out of the upcoming lego star trek set
>>11572476Wrong.The true triad of autism is: Sonic + Bionicle + Minecraft
i love building small sets and all that but when i build a hugeeeeeeee 5000pieces plus one i get anxious and i get kinda frustrated because my neck is on fireman its not that bad of a time to build lego but goddamn is it painful for my neckam i getting old or im just too lazy?
>>11572646One of those is cancelled though
>>11572663Rat
>>11572646bionicle autismos really only come about if they went to a christian schoolfor whatever reason the two are a really bad mix
>>11572646>MinecraftYou mean that game where you have individual blocks, make items, and can recraft and rebuild the world however you want… gee that almost sounds like a computerized Lego world!
>>11572728Btw do you know how to add custom colors to stud.io or custom bionicle parts? You’re around and talkative, and most of the packs are partially out of date, I don’t wanna mess something up due to orange red being overridden or something
>>11572376
I LOVE LEGOS TRAINS!
>>11572754Nah I don’t mess around in studio. It makes me long for parts and colors I don’t have and can’t get. I stick to my bin o’ bricks. I need to see and feel them to make anything.
>one of the most famous toy brands>the 4chan general is barely movingexplain it to me
>>11572784You showed up during a conflict.Lego general was invaded by a spammer/shill who constantly tried to push /lg/ to the top of the board and continuously started new threads prematurely. The resulting infighting, accusations, and thread splitting have turned a lot of people into lurkers.
>>11572770Just have to get something started for making a good basic bionicle figure, got some parts but need to combine them with the spray painted stuff
>>11572784making magic is not for amateurs
>>11572770Try looking for various paints
If anything needs 3D printing, it would be the old joint systems like this to slightly make the bottoms less solid so you can easily lift them apart like most pieces nowadays, that would be a good idea
This is $1,000 dollars. Should I buy?
>>11572817No
>>11572817>>11572818wrong one
>>11572823No.
>>11572823i really hope minas tirith wont face the same fate as this piece of shiti want the true 1k dollars set that mogs this glorified diorama
>>11572823will jang(just a nice guy) review it?#notsponsored#calmadult
>>11572848https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5-xHttxTFM4I hope so.
>4.9/5 starsIs this the best one?
>>11572823What I find crazy about this in conjunction with its insane pricing is that it isn't even half of the Death Star, it's just a slice of it. Barad-Dûr is half the tower and it's half the price of the Death Star.
>>11572615
>>11572300The cheaper you set the price, the more customers you will get.
>>11572884So what you're saying is, we could have had the full tower for the same price as Pancake Planet?
>>11572006anything except for the burrow, looks awesome and has great features but i had to completely redesign the walls due to structural instability. if you follow legos instructions it falls over at the slightest breeze. it looks a lot worse now however im too stubborn to resell or use it for parts so ill just keep playing with it to try and feel better
>>11572918>So what you're saying is, we could have had the full tower for the same price as Pancake Planet?There is no "we could have had", it's "we can have".
>>11572954Did you do anything with the 4 pits
After building the going merry and the haunted ship out of the haunted house I'm addicted to building pirate ships What are some good pirate sets to sate my hunger
Lower Decks!Lower Decks!Lower Decks!Lego will never get around to doing this Star Trek series, but y'know what? ...close enough!
>>11573008I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, give this mother fucker a job at Lego!
>>11573012thx lolI appreciate the encouragementhonestly been more fun than I've had with my Legos in a long time.and I'm "saving" hundreds of dollars!!
>>11572957Nexo Knight mass graves
>>11572376Big Stan was right
>>11571773Wow, it's almost like these sets aren't made by lego designers. Sadly, they are the best sets lego is currently producing.>>11571812He is saying they are marked down 20%-25%. He pays 80%-75% of the original price.
>>11572848mandr did a GOAT review
>>11572302I’m hereI found this trans blue plate and this pearl black 2x6 brick in an old suitcase in the local trash bin yesterday. I honestly don’t understand the old suitcase in attic meme but I’ll go along with it.
Anyone wanting to up their scavenging game should be in the lookout for abandoned couches and chairs. You turn theme over and cut out the bottom to find the treasure. As well as coins I have found jewelry and lego bits.
>>11573008You should get some A4 sticker paper and print custom torsos.
where are the lotr battle packs?i want to build an orc army for fucks sakeis lego retarded? why wont they do it?stupid faggy starwars get it but noooothe most badass franchise is left outfuck the danish peoplei hope trum takes your greenland
>>11573236Lego knows that everyone has a bunch of generic bricks now. They can't sell you a $500 LOTR set if you can buy the minifigs for $20 and build the tower with $80 worth of bricks.The solution? Buy the minifigs on Aliexpress and build the tower with bulk parts.
>>11573237The answer is to make a lot of unique pieces. New moulds and generic prints are especially sellable because it means people who aren't interested in the license or theme will still consider purchasing the set if they think it'll add to their own builds.
>>11572884Barad-dur in its principle is the perfect way to design a big setpiece. Exterior display on one side, interior display on the other. Some people complain about only being "half a tower" but if it were closed off on the backside, either you wouldn't get an interior, or the interior would be a pain in the ass to access/see, so it might as well not exist anyway. The big issue with the deathstar is that while it's an iconic location, the exterior design itself is bland and unremarkable. It's a grey sphere with a satellite dish. With that in mind, I get why they went full dollhouse and only focused on interior dioramas, but what you get for the price, plus all the corner-cutting bullshit like 50+ stickers instead of printed parts, makes it just not worth it.
>>11573240If it was 60-70% of the size it is now, with only a few less features and details (like removing some of the detail parts and perhaps also removing the entire elevator functionality), you could have more or less every diorama at the same size arranged in a circle, and still have enough piece budget leftover to cover each section with grey plates. It absolutely could have been the best Death Star, the designers just had the wrong idea from the start.
>>11573240>>11573245i cant wait to see someone make a moc of the sphere out of the exact same parts
>>11573245desu my point is that the death star is just a fundamentally shit design from the start. I do like the hangar design though. I might try to build my own version of just that diorama later on. I'm sure there will be a million rebrickable instructions for individual deathslice rooms
>>11573245The main problem isn't even that it's a slice, it's just way too thin. The hangar is a good size and has a lot of space to play with the figures, the throne room is ok too, but everywhere else? Meh...
>>11573266I think that's inherent to the issue of having a "2D" setup of different rooms stacked on top of each other. If you made the slice thicker, so each diorama had more depth and more room for figs/objects/scenery/etc, then you'd run into a problem with actually accessing the backs of those rooms. Like trying to reach the bottom of a pringles can. The throne room and hangar have higher ceilings compared to the rest of the rooms, which is why those work. But of course not everywhere can have that much space
Trying to ID this 2x4 with printed black line. Did someone do this after the fact?
I got priced out of the lego hobby, I've tried getting into learning to draw so I have some creative outlet but it's just not the same
>>11573219>the old suitcase in attic memeits not a meme i was clearing out an attic and there was a suitcase for trash in it and it had lego in it and i kept it
>>11572006If you’re still around this is decent too and I’ve seen it for $85 new still.
>>11573329Looks too straight to be most markers
>>11573331What is it about Lego that attracts so many wealthy homosexuals? Serious question.
>>11572006I picked up the newest Hogwarts Express on Amazon for 90 burgers. Looks like it's back up to 110 now but you may be able to find it on clearance at retail somewhere. Ended up grabbing the Ford Angila to go with it too, 9 bucks which is an amazing deal for what you get.
>>11573331Hit up some facebook moms and start buying 50+lb bins for 20 dollars each
>>11573358Scratched all to hell and reeking as if they had been scraped out of some crusty diaper? No thanks!
>>11573361>what is soap and water
>>11573346Michael Jackson syndrome. Interrupted childhood development (hormonal or abuse) causes unhealthy fixation on childish things. Couple that with fags don’t tend to have children or the expenses associated with having kids and are generally well off financially. The mainstream acceptance of the 18+ black box monstrosities gives them an outlet for their lost childhood and gives Lego the pink money paypiggies they love so much.
>>11573235well, I don't have access to a printer, so I can't even consider that. maybe one day I can do that though...and I kind of think it adds a little childish charm to leave the torsos blank. I mean, it's not like they are hyper-accurate anywayfun fact: a long time ago Lego did have torsos stickers
>>11573361Lego is not for the weakGo get your hands dirty
>>11573346Straight men with money have their wallets drained by femoids who treat them as ATMsMtf trannies are permabroke because they keep spending money on hormones and surgeries in an effort to finally pass(lol)Actual women can't be bothered with lego unless they're into writing ninjago shipping fanficsThus, gays with disposable income and a touch of 'tism are the only ones left standing
Lego demon slayer when?
>>11573468When it gets a Netflix adaptation with enough brown people to be considered for a theme/ several hundred dollar black box single duct collector set
Icons set when?
>>11573468It will have already faded into irrelevance by the time some gen x fossil at lego considers making it a theme.
Pokémon: More info on the March wave. The smaller sets are Eevee and Pikachu (via lego_minecraft_goat)
>>11573495>small>$200
>>1157349517 sets to go. We also get 8 brickheadz sets but those are separate under brickheadz. Let's hope it's not only KANTOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
>>11573495This is garbage, Lego are absolute fucking retards. Mega JUST did this shit, they are really going to make generic giant sized display pieces and charge you $200 to have a generic pikachu + pokeball just sitting on a shelf collecting dust. Why the FUCK would they not do something actually look like fuck idk the Lavender Town tower with Ghosts? Or how about the Victory Lane or LITERALLY ANYTHING OTHER THAN WHAT THE OTHER COMPANY ALREADY DID
>>11573503>megaWho?
>>11573508The guys who did this>>11573495Fuck off Bovid
>>11573503There arent many iconic places to make into sets for pokemon.
>>11573503No one cares about mega blocks it's why it failed.
>>11573518Horrible bait
>>11573495>lets go eevee>lets go pikachu>mfw
>>11573495So the other two March sets are Eevee and Pikachu & a Pokéball respectively! I hope they‘ll remember that Gen I isn‘t the only one in existence for the remaining 17-ish sets
>>11573503Lego is playing the odds. they have to. it's the reason we get Batmobile #44 instead of a Clock King car. everybody knows Batman, but only a smaller portion of that group knows Clock King. the smaller group of people have less money to spend. Lego wants the Batman money, not the Clock King portion of the Batman group's money.the number of people happy to see "poison gym leader's arena" is much much smaller than the number of people that will go "oh! it's a giant Pikachu!"having said all that, Lego should know their gold bread & butter product is "THE MINIFIGURE" it's mind blowing they didn't do something with that
>>11573503how are you surprised by this?Lego and Mega Bloks have swapped IPs before, a lotTeenage Mutant Ninja TurtlesSpongeBobMinionsprobably more I'm too lazy to look upin each case they made the exact same sets.turtle van, pineapple house, big silver rocket carwe can add Pokemon to that list, too
hey /lg/should the grille piece be updated?Over the years many pieces got minor updates to increase their utility, like how the jumper got upgraded from a dot, to accept stud in the middle. The grille piece has like a thin-dot version, that can be used to put it ontop of hollow-studs, but the attachment is pretty weak it almost has no clutch power and falls off easily.If the grille piece would be updated would you want it to have no inner parts at all like a normal tile piece, or give it a middle stud connection like the modern jumper piece?
>>11573571pirates of the caribbean too and Lego has fumbled it every time
>>11573331You don't need to "learn to draw". That's like saying you have to learn to play with LEGO. If you have working hands, you can play with LEGO. If you can hold a pen, you can draw.Also if cost is an issue you can try doing digital building. It's less fun without physical parts but the tools for it are excellent.
