>>11724755Thoughts on new cmf? Maybe the dark ages of cmfs are finally over...
>>11724757Keep off the playground froggy.
>>11724757I will never be able to find Tahu in stores
Clanka Heil Dooku
Thoughts on the new marvel advent calendar? Ghost Rider is also said to be a part of it
>>11724771More pics
>>11724771You should keep off the discord little creep.
i see froggy is really desperate to earn his paycheck near the end of the month.
>>11724772And Doom
>>11724757>top leftthe fuck is that garbled shit
>>11724778These pictures were taken at a private event (possibly the New York Toy Fair secret room for retailers?) and the guy who leaked them used AI to remove the watermarks so he won't get in trouble. For example you can still see CONFIDENTIAL on this box >>11724771The question is how did these leak to begin with? Probably intentional
i just folded and bought the lego pokemon starters, should i kill myself?
>>11724780100% intentional, like all frogshit. And now its being used to spam all generals, because of course. Disgusting shit.
>>11724785>posting new lego sets and talking about them is bad because...it just is ok!Ok.
>>11724784absolutely, unironically
>>11724784Depends, are you poor or rich? Will the lego pokemon starters which cost $600 affect your lifestyle? If it won't affect it then congrats, if it does then thats bad and poor financial decision on your part but either way you made Lego happy!
A mysterious package from the Netherlands has just arrived, bros... could it be?
>>11724803I hope mine's a football
>>11724757Tahu is the only one I want which means he'll be impossible to find since he'll be the one everyone wants.
...Celeste minifig with a cute red bow!
Cinematography.
>>11724796You should slit them.
>>11724757Everyone's gonna be gunning for Tahu (me included) but the robot T-Rex is cool too.
>>11724757Is robot T-Rex a reference to MechaGodzilla?
>>11724784after the laughably shitty 30th anniversary direct today? yes
>>11724829>he isn't hyped for gen 10Fake fan
My brickopinions did a 20 minute video of Mega Bloks Dragons, who knew this outsold Lego for a few years and prompted Lego to create Ninjago? Kind of had a similar fate like Bionicle.https://youtube.com/watch?v=Ql-YUss8brc
>>11724836I never understood why Mega Bloks Dragons was so popular. Lego Castle was happening when this theme was going.
>>11724819Quit being such a whiny spastic retard. People seem to enjoy talking about the new CMF line, so who is hurt by these posts?
>>11724843You being 6 feet under would improve this general and this board in general, get digging.
>>11724847Like a third of the posts in these threads are you telling people to fuck off, die, or avoid playgrounds. You’re shitting these generals up far more than any (probably imaginary, frankly) frogman.
>>11724757several wasted slots:--Soccer Guy - they are doing a whole theme for soccer, is this uniform even a real team? I don't know soccer. if it IS a real team, they gave him a yellow head instead of fleshie--Chef Girl - all pieces re-used, hair piece, there's already apron torsos, and the "new" apron torso has designer signature on it, completely unusable for MOCs. the chocolate dragon doesn't have eyes, not even candy dots. it's a big poop in the shape of a dragon--I understand the Ninja Guy is some kind of Ninjago anniversary tribute, like the Bionicle, but they ARE making Ninjago sets, and NOT Bionicle. there was no need to put the Ninjago guy in this CMF. (at least it's a new hair piece?)so there's at least 3 of them that should have been "better" choices. 3/12= 25%positives, so I don't sound too bitter:-Robo-Dinosaur - clever NPU re-use of dinohead-Unicorn Girl - clever NPU re-use of Wonder Woman hairpiece-Monster Hunter Girl - epic gunsword. 10/10-obviously, minifig version of Bionicle Guy is going to be awesome. (Is Lego stuck now, doing the rest of them later?)
>>11724854>chocolate dragonI'm using it to make a wooden dragon top for a wooden wizard staff.
>>11724834>30th anniversary direct>hocks a hunk of plastic that plays chiptune with cartridges >dlc>another preview for a game announced last year>gen 10 which is a rehashed setting with 2/3 starters already done as a concept it looks a hell of a lot better than the last two gens i'll give it that, but it was still pretty lackluster
>>11724840iirc it was before fantasy era castle, so it was different enough from knights kingdommega bloks also had a pirate theme out around this time too, which was also pretty cool
Let me assure you, there is nothing funny... about going up to a nice, clean, unsuspectin' urinal, m'kay, droppin' your pants then... turnin' around... squattin' over that urinal, 'kay, maybe... maybe pullin' your buttcheeks apart with your hands, m'kay, and then layin' out a big fudge dragon for all the world to see.
>>11724848You’re not contributing much yourself and I think after pedofrogs ebony extravaganza it’s clear he exists. Is he French? Named Paul? Probably not but there sure is something rotten around here and it revolves around “leaks” and speculation. Almost like a “viral” attempt at marketing or something.
>>11724898You could say there’s something rotten in Denmark…
>>11724901Imagine being so low on the totem pole you have to shill here of all places. I bet his coworkers love him!
>>11724898>>11724903He has done the porn spam thing multiple times before as well, shit’s annoying
>>11724898>you’re not contributing much yourselfNigga it’s an anonymous message board. You don’t know what I’m contributing. But your lame deflection aside, it remains that you’re polluting these threads with extremely aggressive, unpleasant schizo posts.
>>11724898>>11724901>>11724903>>11724908>samefriending this hard
>>11724914Nothing about what I said >>11724898 was schizophrenic or aggressive other than me saying you’re not contributing much. And all I’ve seen from you is bitching about bitching. Post some OC. You won’t.
>>11724916Cool. Almost like it’s just two dudes who agree having a convo.
>>11724918I’ve posted much OC. You just haven’t noticed because, again, it’s an anonymous message board
>>11724921It’s an anonymous image board. Post a single Lego you own.
>>11724898There are probably like 200 people who visit this thread, 80% of which hate nulego. There’s an exactly zero percent chance Lego is paying someone to market here.
>>11724922I can’t afford Lego on account of being Brazilian :(
>>11724924>There are probably like 200 people who visit this threadDude I think the last tally was 13. I still say 8.
>>11724927Is that visitors or just posters?
>>11724932Posters I’d say. I’m just sick of the obvious marketing. I’d rather there be quality over quantity. And until we get more quality posts I’ll continue to call out the copious quantities of “secret viral leaks”.
>>11724938>>11724927I know at least one poster here so thats 4 confirmed ones, the ride never ends until they give up their shitty marketing
>>11724938>I’m just sick of the obvious marketingit's painfully obvious that the "leeeeeaaakkkkss" are done in a pattern. intentionally, all across the Internet, not just here. re-posting the pics here is not going to alter anything, in any significant way.it's just easier to look at a picture, on a freaking IMAGE POSTING BOARD to discuss the thing. when somebody mentions a gun-sword, ain't nobody got time to search around to find wherever else the picture is. that's ridiculous.
>>11724938Would Lego really waste resources marketing here, a space full of cretins who don’t even like nulego? Is it not far more expected that some autist is posting leaks either because of oppositional defiant disorder or because it makes them feel like they’re in the know or something? Or they post just because they’re guaranteed a reaction (even if it’s just “rope yourself”)? I seriously doubt 4chan (which can’t attract any advertisers outside of, like, dick pill and hentai figure companies) is on the squeaky-clean Lego’s radar, especially when the multicultural yuppie childfree demographic is so thick on, say, Reddit.
>>11724945Yes I think the biggest toy company in the world would do just about anything to control the conversation around it’s product. Why here? Genuine thought? I don’t know.
>>11724947I genuinely don’t think Lego feels the need to “control the conversation” in a 4chan general visited by maybe a couple hundred people.
>>11724949You're right we would never shill here.
>>11724949>>11724945Part of it being spite against here for doing legit leaks in the past, and money laundering
>>11724949You're right they would never shill here.
Wait shit guys how do I delete a post I double posted I'm such a newfriend haha
Anyways enough crapposting had anyone seen these new leaks?
fun story:This Ronaldo soccer guy, during a press conference, had a Coca-Cola bottle shoved in front of him. they were sponsoring the event and wanted their product on screen.Ronaldo is a famously-healthy-eating-habits advocate. he shoves the bottle aside and says something like "Soda sucks! Drink WATER instead!" and boom. Coca-Cola stock drops, the company looses, real-number, 4 BILLION DOLLARS. granted, Coca-Cola makes like, 240 billion a year, but still... that's 4 billion dollars they lost.I don't even know which set he comes in, but if I worked for Lego I'd make sure there was a water bottle free GWP for his set lol!
>>11724957lol so Lego is maintaining a years-long grudge with 4chan by posting leaks?>>11724959Is there any indication the leak posting is coming from some Lego guerrilla marketer? Note that “isn’t it weird that Lego news is being posted in the Lego general?” does not constitute proof.
>>11724965The “proof” is when he’s busted out dead to right or gets outfoxed on making a new thread he spams the board with 27 Lego threads and black kweens.
>>11724963Yeah, let’s back off the schizo- and slopposting and get back to the true spirit of the thread. I just ordered the LEGO® The Legend of Zelda™ Ocarina of Time™ — The Final Battle to claim my Mini Pokémon Center insider reward. But the Zelda™ kit is a pre-order and ships on March 1st at the earliest. Is there a chance that, even though I’ve redeemed the insider reward code and placed the order, it somehow sells out before my order ships?
>>11724970And this, you think, is more likely the behaviour of a paid Lego marketer than an autistic retard?
>>11724965The only website I've seen proof Lego astroturfs is Reddit. But all of Reddit is astroturfed so lol. Mods kept taking down people with megablokd and other off brands in the background of pictures and when asked in some sort of sticky for talking to mods they just admitted lego issues takedown notices if they see offbrands in reddit posts. Which means people are hired to find that shit. So I can only imagine what other asinine bullshit they do.And Goodsmilecompany funded 4chan for a time and we have had a barely alive nendoroid general that eventually died but only consisted of someone maintaining news. Autist hanging on to 4chan or shill you decide
>>11724972Lego hires autistic retards. Who else would take that job?
>>11724971You should be fine. I’ll wait and get mine later but still wish it was better.Look at me over here owning and posting toys.
>>11724757I hope that tuba guy will make for a good napoleonic soldier
>>11724818That’s fun anon. I don’t even like animal crossing but I’m a big fan of the sets. Doubly so when they were all on sale
>>11724757I’ve gone on several anti leak rants. Especially when it’s for stuff no one cares about. But CMF is cool provided there’s no super hero license attached
>>11724983>leaks are bad and unacceptable >but not those leaks, I like those Kind of based I guess. The shit leaks are also good, though. Everyone ragging on the ugly, baffling soccer sets in the previous thread was fun. That image had like a dozen replies and the most charitable was “finally a line for third worlders” lol
>>11724990This is an accurate description of how i feel. I am hostile towards leaks I don’t care about.
>>11724771>>11724772>>11724776>tfw first Dr Doom in over a decadelowkey looks good>>11724757this is one of the best lineups I've seen in years out of the CMF theme. not a single flub
>still not a single release/copy of the battle droid torso in regular/bright green, only limes and oliveBut why though
>>11725064I wonder if the people working in the factory can just grab a mold and pick a color and stamp out any piece they want.maybe they have to wait until they are using the right mold, and sneak in a couple of prints using a new color, or maybe if they are working with a particular color, they can sneak over a different mold real-quick....... f-for quality purposes. testing. whatever. (now they have the perfect piece for the MOC they wanted to make)
>>11725080You gotta figure they’re putting factories in Mexico and now here in the US so they’re probably pulling ~79 average iq. They aren’t mocing anything.
>>11724780Retailers dont even get the blurriest of images these days because of the genuine leakersAll the leaks are most likely planned and uploaded by the marketing department of The Lego Groupt. Retailfag
>>11725091>>11725080We would be getting classic purple back in new parts or bionicle molds if they were smart, or stuff like the green droid torso
I feel like this would look miles better with a classic skelly head.
>>11725080There was some controversy with the Mexico factory when it opened where people were making a bunch of test models in the wrong colors and then reselling them. I recall a lot of unsanctioned but certifiable lego minifigures in all sorts of transparent colors at the time.
>>11725102iirc lego goes full retard when they retire molds they fill them with concrete then bury them out back for some asinine reasonbecause apparently they'll never need those molds again in the future, even if they need a part that would've been perfect
>>11725153Can you take the hair off ghost rider heads?
>>11725194Yeah probably
>>11725194not the old Ghost Rider flaming heads, those were all glued down. there was a Hades with blue fire glued down, too. but it looks like the newest one should have it removable. I didn't buy it so I can't be certain
Now that the Model T is releasing soon how are they gonna handle the illegal headlight problem?>Delay the release date, recall all the sets to replace the pieces and the instructions>No piece replacement, reprint instructions>No nothing “this is an expert set with expert building techniques please understand” bullshit like the ATAT
>>11724757from top left to bottom right>clownfish, long hair with visor dimples>tuba>new cat, cute witch hat>battery print, metal T. Rex head>gunsword, long hair w brim hat>tahu mask>normal colored unicorn/foal This is all I give a shit about
>>11725234oh and>fish bones
>>11725224I'm not sure how this fits into the rest of the build, is it not possible to simply flip one of the sets of headlight bricks 180 degrees so that they are back to back?
>>11725224Why is it even built like this? Why not swap the brown out for a regular ass 1x2 brick?
>>11725239>>11725241I watched a video on itthe back of the brown one connects to parts on the front of the carthe green connects to the steering wheelthe brown pieces would need to be replaced with a brick that allows studs to be placed in it like the back of the brown one doesI'm too tired to think of anything specific right now to replace them with
>>11724771I hope Doom's new hood piece is reused for future Spider-Gwen minifigs.The thick coat hood is not what this costume is supposed to look like
>>11725245Miles Morales will never become a thing and i have no idea why Yidsney is still trying.
>>11724964The curse of the cat at Qatar 2022 was funnier.
>>11725248>Miles Moralesit's that name. "Miles Morales" "Miles Morales"it sounds idiotic, they keep saying it over and over. just call him Spider-Man. but they can't. his face is 100% covered so you wouldn't know it's "Miles Morales as Spider-Man", and you're right back in the loop. "Miles More-al-ez". it's funny to think that even the villains don't say Spider-Man. that would be disrespectful to the spirit of the character. (okay that last part was snarky but I feel like it's what they'd want if they could get away with it)
>>11725259LMAO that poor cat.he just tossed it. for a half-second that cat thought it was getting pets. NOPE!great job for the other guy, busting him right away.
>>11725260>We will never get a Batman Beyond set >But we will get like a dozen milesIt's not fair he was the best legacy character. And I'm pretty sure miles stole his colord and stealth shit from him.
>>11725248>>11725260I just hate that Peter is being cucked by him with his own girlfriend who died in front of him 90% of the time. It's like a weird cuckolding fantasy that Marvel and Sony keep putting onto Gwen.The last time that happened with her was from Norman.Someone on KF made a really good take on the Miles/Gwen pairing:"I fucking hate the romantic overtones they're throwing out between Miles and Gwen. Even now, literally everything Miles has both in-universe and from a meta perspective is just shit he ganked from Peter. His title, his spider-powers, his setting, his villains, his regular joe backstory, his quippy nature, his superhero philosophy, and now his fucking girlfriend? It just feels shallow at this point. The only thing unique to Miles even in his own movies is his race, his electric zappy powers and invisibility."
>>11725262The kicker is that Brazil went on to lose their next match, the quarterfinal versus Croatia. Disrespect a cat at your own peril.>Ronaldo will never be GOAT
>>11725262>the cat in this picrel is the only official set piece released in very light orange besides a bunch of super rare generic bricks used to build legolandThis feline must feel lucky
Need to get more pistons and pnumatics, along with other weird shit. Good pistons and shit for stuff. I just need to do something period, maybe build a set tomorrow to practice
>>11725275Build Frylock with his Fry-legs
>>11725277Only have one yellow piston currently but funny idea
>Bionicle returns....but in minifig form with mechs.How would you feel?
>>11725275These sets were so dope
>>11725282Like they were milking it
>>11725282The fags who hated Bionicle system playsets and minifigs deserve leukemia
>>11724980It's a shame because everyone keeps saying how the AC line bombed. If it's true we'll get even more Ninjago and vehicle sets in the future.
Who is this for? Why do soccer sets and not real football sets? I talk about american football.
>>11725306We asked the same thing about the Nike sets when they came out, and they ended up being some of the most hated sets of last year. The shoe set was only mildly popular due to some fags wanting the basketballman minifigure.
>>11725064Weird that it was never used for Life on Mars.
>>11725306bionicle died for this
We won.
>>11725333Nice
>>11725333>lego wasted $500 million just to cancel smart bricksWhy? Could've made new themes or improved sets quality? Maybe do good prints on black and red pieces? Why waste time and money with smart bricks? 10 pokemon sets are smart brick related and won't release everywhere this year, among them is Mewtwo! What a waste!
>>11724757Is that an adult Lloyd?
>>11724880Same.
>>11724784Yes.
>>11725335For such a massive toy company with such a lengthy pedigree, and for all the money they make, it is bizarre that they keep making this same mistake over and over and over again. Trying to force technology into their toys, when the whole point why they became so popular is their simplicity.
>>11725352Blame execs that need to keep making more and more money and execs that think they know exactly how to do that (they don't)
Updated this MOC from last year with new arms, and a mounting point on the back for its sword
>>11725364Nice but those ankles and feet seem disproportionate. I appreciate any and all OC great job!
>>11725333>>11725335>>11725352Did Lego actually cancel the smartbrick, or is this just some bald basement-dweller’s speculation/wishcasting?
>>11725367It is just speculation, and he also says the smart bricks will continue for at least the next two years
>>11725367They definitely haven't cancelled it yet. The sets aren't even officially out. It isn't really be well-received though, and yeah, we can say it's by star wars manbaby YTers, but even with that said, you can go onto some places like Amazon and see that there aren't terribly many POs since they've gone up.It remains to be seen what kids will think, but but as >>11725369 mentioned, even if it flops they're probably in for at least 2 years with the development cycle. So even if they do crash and burn they aren't going anywhere for at least a little while.
>>11725333>>11725335>>11725352>>11725360>>11725372I love the smart brick because it makes slopwar fags mad. Also mandr is a lazy ragebaiter and I hope he gets hard by the next 2008
>>11725396
>>11725282So Exo Force under the name Bionicle? Sure id be on board
Huh?
>>11725409Didn't you see the human ninjago fortnite skins?
>>11725409None of these words are in the bible
>>11725306>I talk about american football.Lego did one American Football guy, but forgot to include the actual football. d'oh!I'm going to guess it's due to Lego being a European company, and not really having an idea of how popular the NFL is. it should be obvious, based only on the one Superbowl being the yearly expensive hype-fest, why would Lego not want a piece of that?Lego did those F1 sets with dozens of similar cars, but the NFL has 32 teams (that's a lot!) and minimal 11 offensive players vs 11 defensive players. 22 minifigs? Lego would clearly do single player "Editions" sets instead of some kind of play-feature kick a field goal sets.but Football doesn't have, even a few, highly-elevated iconic spokesperson players. the only one who comes close is Mr. Taylor Swift, and he's only iconic because he's engaged to Taylor freaking Swift. football fans will yell at that comment and shout a bunch of names, maybe they'd be right. but I get the feeling that's true for most sports.
>>11725415You can't read Hebrew, Aramaic or Greek.
>>11725416I wish they’d do more football stuff.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xYeW4oiY_bw>they thought they could hide this from meLittle did they know I’ve had this skeleton bottle on my wishlist for a while
I got my Orient Express motorized.
>>11725442Yea man, that's a very fine Lego train. Wasn't that the one Lego said would be to hard to motorize?
Snagged these for 13 good boy bucks at the second hand store.
>>11724757Cute Witch would have been better served with this piece in pearl gold
>>11725497I hope you went there during the day.
>>11725364>spyrius face My favourite minifig. This mech is sick
>>11725521I always carry 17 crucifixes.
>>11724772Looks like I'll finally buy a Marvel advent calendar.
>>11724829>>11724834I'm a Gen 1 chad so I don't give a single shit about any mainline game after that. I only jerk it to Poke Hebes/Poke Hags from the new games. No, I will not be buying the shitty Lego sets. I will not be buying the $20 ROM.
>>11725259Absolute sub human behavior. He doesn't even set it down, just tossed the cat.
>>11725442Soul. Fuck I need a new train/build one. I only have a bullet train and the Christmas one.
>>11725259>>11725579>Absolute sub human behavior. He doesn't even set it down, just tossed the cat.{record scratch] {freeze frame}so. there I was. you're probably wondering how I got here...Lego needs to put a cat in a soccer set now as a fun Easter Egg
I hope Bounty Hunter Pursuit remake will be released before WW3.
>>11724757Should have done a whole Bionicle line, not just one figure -.- the lego company is so retarded sometimes.
>>11725632>-.-Go back go Gaiaonline
>>11725224Can someone confirm if this is still in the final product?
>>11725224>>11725244Any reason they couldn't just use pic related?
>>11725734I'm not 100% sure, but isn't putting studs in those also an illegal building technique?
>>11725749I think that's only if you're attaching a SNOT brick to it on the same plate, since the studs don't perfectly align with the holes. Not sure if that would be a problem in the context of the Model T though.
>>11725586Or a grasshopper to recall that time James Rodriguez scored a penalty at the world cup with one on his arm.
Instead of dual molded legs or arm prints lego used the budget for it's 1000 dollars set to make brand new womenx of color faces for the stormtroopers, the thing nobody gives a shit about? Why am i supposed to support this piece of shit company again?
>>11725832>stormtrooper headsI hate these just give me a black head so there's no weird fleshy neck gap
>>11725832They do this in pretty much every modern SW set, with every generic trooper except clone troopers.
>>11725832>Why am i supposed to support this piece of shit company again?I gave up giving them money by switching to bricklink. Then they bought bricklink and I have to give them money for 30 year old bionicle parts now.
>>11725749From my experience with LDD, knob studs are okay while regular studs aren't.
>>11724757So this . . . is the power of . . . Bionicle G3. Huh.
>>11725841>just give me a black head>*monkey’s paw curls*
brothers I am raiding my local pab wall tomorrow, never done it before, super nervous
>>11725856It is definitely a harrowing experience. I hope you pull through.
>>11725856good luck I hope they have cool bricks for you. types, colors, things. it's kinda random what will be there.you'll be tempted to stack all the bricks for maximum-box-filling geometry. when you're done, sprinkle in the tiny bits and shake it to fill up the gaps.once I got a whole handful of little blue gems just squeezed in between the cup I filled (back when they were plastic cups instead of cardboard boxes)
When you're buying from Bricklink, is it common to get extra pieces you didn't pay for? It's happened to me in multiple orders.
>>11725856I can’t wait for the employee to tell you you can’t stack the parts, you get flustered, cue spaghetti.
>>11725871Sounds like a ghetto lego store. The employee at mine thought pic related was funny and asked where to get one.
>>11725870Some sellers are like that, adding in little bonus bits though in my experience they usually note them as such. To many sellers it's more of a hobby than a business; this one lady would wrap literally every part lot in tissue paper and include a cutesy message.
Does anyone know why older Ninjago stuff exploded in Price in the last 2 years? The current used prices for some sets are what I would have been paying for them new in late 23/early 24. I got most of what I wanted then, but there were 3 or 4 sets I didn't and I can't imagine paying the prices now.
>>11725905Zoomer nostalgia. Kids who grew up with it are hitting the workforce and have increased buying power
>>11725366I can’t really bulk up the calves without changing the construction more than I’d like, but here it is with slightly beefier feet
I'm trying to un-time my DeLorean, I'm getting there but I don't quite like the little transition here, any ideas?
>>11725947Change the plate to an Exo Force one
When are we getting more Crossworlds sets?
>>11725960never (dead game)
>>11725832Yeah I don't support this crap at all. "Female stormtroopers" is the biggest fucking meme ever and tlg can suck an new one for shoehorning not just womanoids but fucking NIGGERS at every single opportunity.
>>11725981Huh?
>>11725985just kidding, I'm still playing tooOn my secondary platform I played one race in the monkey ball event and got rank 60-thousand-and-something, there's more active users than I expected
They know
>>11725993>Lego admits they turned the keys over to the inmates So shocked.
>>11725981I just lost the game
>>11725982This is why Lego doesn’t market here you schizoids
>>11725993What does this mean? G3? Brickonicle?
Lol, America just killed the smart bricks, n one will ever be able to afford lego again, its time to end the hobby
>>11726019>America just killed the smart brickselab?
>>11725993>>11726016Honestly, I can see some 18+ system sets, like they are doing for Classic Castle, Space, etc. Maybe something like Sokoda's Ideas pitch. I haven't kept up with the rumors, but maybe the Tahu Helmet and Bionicle Logo sets are legit
>>11726022WW3 starting? Watch the news, doesn't matter the channel. Whats the point to buy Lego when the world is ending?
>baby driversfor what purpose?
>>11725416If you thought the Disney tax was bad then the NFL tax would make your head spin.
>>11726029Aren't smart bricks produced in partnership with some weapons manufacturer? Lego will be fine
>>11725512is she actually meant to be a witch, I saw someone call her a fairy godmother and that makes way more sense.
>>11726032Children dipshit.
>>11726032>>baby drivers>for what purpose?ruined by the BABY facesit would have been nice to have gotten construction and fireman hats, for tiny MOCs but then they would have been useless due to baby faces, so...also $10 per mini-minifig is not ideal either. these things are full of lost potential
You can just tell Lego is one of those companies where on the surface “we’re all a family here!” type of bullshit and “team building” happens all the time. But you just know it’s cut throat and backstabbing constantly and everyone hates each other.
>>11726035I thought more a magical girl, she has that kind of oversized anime bow. But at times it seems like the hair color and puffy cheeks are more like an old lady.>>11726081I'm sure there must be some cliques at odds with each other. Like one one that can't stand the faggot desig VP and his Queer Eye crap
I know it wasn't possible since the sets were based on the Speed Racer movie, but I really wanted lego Speed Racer to last longer than it did
>>11726097The builds and minifigures for speed racer were surprisingly terrible. I was very disappointed.
>>11724854>there was no need to put the Ninjago guy in this CMFYeah, putting a Ninjago figure in a CMF slot is lame.
>>11725985why does that car have a lesbian flag on it?
>>11726154Every team gets a color of it's own.
They released Audi F1 livery set for both City and Speed ChampionsWhy are we not getting the Cadillac livery?I thought they wanted us to collect them all
>>11726081>But you just know it’s cut throat and backstabbing constantly and everyone hates each otherit's painfully obvious that Lego has different design teams, working across different themes, and there is no consistency to any kind of standards between them.why does the $300 Ninjago set have 24 minifigs, and the $400 Enterprise-D have only 8 minifigs? you KNOW they could have put more than 8 minifigs in Jack Sparrow's Spaceship. it's $380! because the Jack Sparrow/Enterprise team thinks it's okay to use 8 figures, while the Ninjago team pushes to include as many as they can.probably Friends has a separate team, Speed Champions. Creators with thing-but-Lego sets probably its own team of designers...maaaaybe the CMF team is the only one that goes from room to room asking what everyone is working on, so they can steal a new piece for a re-color in a CMF figure?
>>11726079i know they're children, why are they drivers? Another case of shrinkflation?
>>11726081That is, without exaggeration, every corporate workplace
>>11726172Might have something to do with greed, but it also might simply be due to licensing stipulations. We already know that if you buy a licensed set and are missing a piece or a minifigure part there are WAY more hoops to jump through to get it replaced than if you buy a set of one of Lego's own themes. Almost every licensed theme is stingy as fuck on the minifigures. Then again, Ninjago is kind of Lego's darling when it comes to their own original themes, so they may just be more generous. They still do put out $10 sets with three minifigures almost every wave with Ninjago.
My pokemon center is in the warehouse with my new Legend of Zelda kit. I hope it ships and arrives real soon :^)
>>11725947Perhaps find a way for the gray slope to be supported from below as to hide the hand and bar connection. What you have here is quite better than my attempt from 2013 (note that it was before speed champion with its better wheels, windshield and various flavors of brackets).
>>11726029>Watch the news, doesn't matter the channelniggerbabble
>>11726191My guess is probably there are occasionally times where the IP doesn't own the rights for each actor without paying additional royalties. That use of an actor might eat into the budget. The Black Pearl absolutely should have had Pintel and Ragetti though even if it made it $400, because that'd complete the main crew.
>>11726191>Might have something to do with greedStar Wars is proof that, at least Star Wars, would rather have 3 minifigs in each of two $80 sets, rather than put 6 minifigs in one $80 set. why put 6 figures in a single set?! they can easily sell two sets with that amount of figures! (most droids don't count... but they always try to make them count lol)I always thought each and every Star Wars set should have 1 extra Stormtrooper and 1 extra Rebel. b-but eventually the kid will have like... 30+ Stormtroopers! yeah, that's the point.
>>11724760You will. Bionicle is not as popular as castle, but even if it was, it doesn't lend itself well to army building. The Wolpack CMF last year wasn't just being bought up by scalpers, it was also being bought up by castle fans wanting to have lots of those parts. Also unlike caslte the Bionicle IP is stagnant and not growing new fans regularly. I don't think the Tahu figure is even a good investment based on that alone. Bionicle fans will buy one Tahu each, scalpers might buy a few for future resale but who would they be reselling to? Unless Lego brings back Bionical (very unlikely) I don't see there being a huge influx of new Bionical fans after this CMF wave retires.
>>11726164Licensing problems? I though Lego was dealing with F1 directly rather than the drivers and teams but it is weird that we don't seem to be getting Cadillac sets.
>>11726164audi was first because they want to erase previous team, kick sauber, as soon as possible, don't worry, they will release cadillac and the rest later
>>11726203>mousecuck cares more about le epic army building than the actual setlolevery time
really wish they created a new sub-line for technic that isnt vehicle/machine based
>>11726246that might be it as Caddilac is entering as a new team with new sponsors, and >>11726247 they're not in a hurry to replace an older car like Audi was
>>11726261>cuckis it possible to purchase anything without being a thingcuck?(hur hur Legocuck buys Lego)(lol every time)
>>11726323He lets Mickey fuck his wife (with a Lego strap on) while he sits in a dimly lit corner smoking a cigarette. What’s hard to understand.
>>11726323Mousecuck refers to those who bend over and take the premium prices of Disney branded products from a company that hates them, particularly as it relates to Star Wars, where they are directly funding the ongoing molestation of Star Wars' corpse and LEGO's overall hyper reliance on license.
>>11726389alternatively>like thing>buy thing
Every six months or so I check back on this thread and it's just the same retards fighting. It's not even funny anymore, it's just kinda sad. Selling off half my lego collection was the best thing I ever did. 30K in bank.

>>11726476Crack and sports gambling
>>11726507Oh. Sorry about that. I go to the horse track sometimes in the summer and spend like 30$. But that’s about the extent of my gambling
>>11726501What’re the sets you want?
>>11726501Reveal the sets
>>11724755Haven't been to /toy/ for a while. Why are there like 10 lego general threads on the board right now?
>>11724771>>11724776>the thick rubber cape covers up the iconic gold pieceshow you fumble something that easy ?
>>11726558The french
>>11726481so it's not possible to buy any Star Wars merch anymore? at all?
>>11726080I agree, like why not make baby-sized figures that resemble actual adults? Wouldn't that appeal to the target demographic of these sets much more?
>>11726521>>11726557>new setDungeons and Dragons >Nostalgia bait6198 Stingray StormerI love the Stingrays. They’re are my favorite faction. I got the tiny set as a kid and I’ve been so into that armor and helmet ever since. But I also love fantasy era castle and the dnd set hits very nicely. Don’t really care for the license but no big deal I can swap fleshies out and use the build. I also scheme about turning the ruined wall and tower into a fully rebuilt one. So. Here I sit
>>11726558Competing with a frenchman. Thats all.
>>11726616I'm not an IPfag in general so consider me biased but the stingrays really are one of the coolest aesthetics of any faction in the 90s. I'm mostly a spacefag with only a few aquazone sets but still got all rays sets because they just look so cool. Inhave to imagine the dnd set is going to be decently available for some time.
>>11726636>>11726616I have a partially complete one of these that I got for 40ish bucks a while back, no minifigs but still good for parts, admirable design and I like magnets, anyways look at this old moc I have saved
>>11726638o fugg :-DDspace benis :-DDDD
>>11726592>>11726632What?
>>11726636The designs of their vehicles and color schemes and parts usage was practically just the UFO space theme, so it isn't really wild that someone interested in the space stuff of that era would also like the rays stuff. I just liked the Aquanauts and Aqua sharks more. Their colorschemes and parts seemed more original and unique, because the rays were a bit TOO space-derivative to me.
>>11726636I always felt so cool as a kid for having big specialized pieces like the printed UFO quarter domes and using them in my own builds. IDK why they stopped making those. It's a QoL thing for kids too so they don't have to waste time when building. Same thing with baseplates, especially the ones that are made to look like hills or canyons. It gets kids to fun part faster and keeps them from burning out when building.
>>11726636Also a big fan of the stingrays. Loved insectoids also.
Messing around with my tan bricks
>>11726654They still make the smaller saucer pieces, but not the big ones like that. I imagine it probably costs more to produce large parts. There are a number of large parts they've pretty much phased out over the years or just rarely use much anymore, like those saucer pieces, the terrained baseplates you mentioned, BURPs, LURPs, and other larger wall elements, among other things are pretty rare in sets. Hell, I am still surprised they even use the really big ship elements in pirate ships and stuff.Its clear that modern Lego has largely shifted to the "building experience" as opposed to building a toy to play with, which is why they've phased so many large elements out to bloat piece counts so the build takes longer. You mostly really only find large element pieces in those 4+ sets and stuff meant for really young kids.
>>11726389>Disney branded productsHe calls me a mousecuck even if I buy SW sets from before the disney takeover thougheverbeit.
>>11726660Cool
>>11726193Maybe I need to go back to a grey tile instead of the slope there, I'm running out of room to fit things.i'd kill for a 1x1 cheese slope with stud on top
I was gonna talk about how Animal Crossing has such lame buildings but then I remembered it was made for literal toddlers to play with and now I feel a bit silly lol
>>11724836I had this same set as a kid, and like >>11724885 said Dragons peaked a few years before fantasy era lego took off. I actually like Dragons much better as a fantasy theme more than most of the lego stuff until fantasy came around as Mega Bloks wasn't afraid to actually have a grittier theme where you just knew those knock-off minifigs were killing the shit out of each other all the time, unlike lego trying to make everything so tame.That said, you could absolutely tell the quality difference with Mega Bloks. That Sorcerers Lair set I had was so inconsistent in the molds the bricks barely stuck together and would fall apart if you looked at them wrong, and the minifigs hands cracked and broke often. The dragons were really well done though and the bigger set pieces like those light-up stones were neat, and they were a lot cheaper.
Anyone else has become picky on what sets they buy? Like you can say whatever you want about leaks but they help me save lots of money, I wait to see pics of sets and decide which ones I buy and which I don't because, Frankly, I'm getting less space with how many sets I gotta display and they are getting very expensive. Also themes arent that epic now like they used too.
The set I ordered hasn't arrived yet and it's been a whole monthI'll never trust italians ever again
>>11726788Yeah, I also only buy things I actually want. >leaks save me moneyI love this image of some giga consooomer who, if he hadn’t had an extra couple months to mull over a set, would just buy up whatever slop Lego releases.
>>11726797What set is it anon. Let us anticipate with you
>>11725275What are you planning on building anon?
>>11726824Well to be fair it's just an old polybag lolThe good news is that I also ordered an actual set that's not running late!It's a sealed Legacy Destiny's Bounty and I'm super excited for it to get hereI always wanted the bounty when I was little but somehow I never got it... until now!(bigger and better too)I also have been ordering some pieces for a MOC I wanna build but I'm buying them in waves so it's gonna take a while before I actually start it...TLDR: the mailman and I will be meeting alot these next few weeks :)
>>11726850Tho I'm a little worried.The tracking said the package arrived in the country but it was "damaged" which is ominous...But it's plastic pieces inside bags inside a box inside a bag wrapped in bubblewrapper inside a bigger box so I want to believe it's nothing lol
>>11726654>>11726661The terrain baseplates were made with vacuum-moulding, which no other Lego parts use, so they were likely phased out due to it not being worth the cost to maintain separate production equipment just for them. Large specialized pieces have limited uses so they tend to be the first things to be cut, while something like basic 1×2 or 2×6 bricks can be used for just about any set. And while I don't think it affected Lego's decisions, large specialized parts have always been somewhat controversial among Lego fans, who often complain about "juniorization" of sets, i.e. reliance on big specialized pieces instead of building things out of standard bricks.
Bros...I think it might actually be happening...
>>11726788I was always picky after my dark age have ended, buying 1-2 sets every year.After like 7y of this I dont have "space" to display everything. I also dont want to, because I prefer to display my mocs/wips that im currently working on.I stick to medieval/pirates, despaite being mianly aquazone and adventurers fag.Lego became to tm and I hate that they need to rely on some awful brands to sell they products. I would probably buy more if they did more geniune and good orginal lines or they would nostalgiabait me with better throwbacks.
No negativity in the dojo!
>>11726877I hope you get in a wreck with Jang.
Woah...
>>11726900Man, I wish I got Takutanuva as a kid. Got all the other limited edition sets after though, probably because my parents got divorced in 2004/2005-ish.
>>11726882I never saw a guitar piece before this is awesome
>>11724755Hey guys I need some advice.I’m making a medieval village and it’s coming along pretty nice. However it’s getting to the point where I need to arm the levies.Should I get a bunch of halberds, billhooks, or simple spears? We have crossbows with pavise shields, some heavy cavalry, swordsmen, etc. but for the “rank and file” peasant who was just called up…what do I give them?>pic rel is about half the village
>>11726940Pitchforks and shovels, never hurts to add more archers.
>>11726900That Star Destroyer is having some problems.
>>11726788I haven't bought much lego in years, the only thing I bought in 2025 was the 3 in 1 spider. Everything else either doesn't interest me or outrages my boomer sense of set pricing.
>>11726900>color>graphic design>detailed backdropsPlease keep this shit out of my triple digit price dust collectors, I'm not some kind of fucking child.
>>11726987man these black boxes are pure misery, you can't even tell what's on it
>>11726788Yes, all i got was the Back to the future set (great value and prints) and I'm just waiting for the Bounty Hunter Pursuit remake and that's it.
>>11726193Less confidant in this, really. but I think it looks better? We're in a slope-length renaissance, new 1x3 and 1x4's, maybe we'll get a 1x5 that solves my problems.
>>11725483Yeah, It seems to run fine even though the motor is on full speed. It manages to go up a small incline. I did have to add rubber bands to the powered wheels to get traction on the track.>>11725582I've got the green express passenger train, Orient Express and the logging and wild west trains from the bricklink designer program.
Are we healing? Things seem a lot quieter… maybe frenchie was from Tehran?

>>11726491Space, duh.>>11726593It's certainly possible, millions of cuckolds do it every day worldwide.
>>11727168Which space theme?
>>11726900Holy SOUL
>>11727189Space Police (all 3), Ice Planet, Spyrius, UFO, Insectoids, Unitron, Exploriens (very underrated), Blacktron (Future Generation especially but both are based), Rock Raiders, Insectoids, Life on Mars, and M-Tron of course, just off the top of my head.
>duhFriend I’m going to let you in on a secret. that was 60IQ slang in its own time. Which is to say the 90s. The people that still say that have Down’s syndrome or some other birth defects
>>11727215I was a big fan of space police 3 and Rock Raiders
Post the 3 coolest minifigures in your opinion
>>11727215You may as well have just said all of it. Just about the only space themes I can see that you didn't list were Roboforce and later stuff like Galaxy Squad.
>>11727256
>>11727264Sad
>>11727265
>>11727267Ok
>>11727264Happy
>>11727223Good taste, despite being comparatively recent Space Police 3 is genuinely in the running for my overall favorite.>>11727263It's pretty close to all of it, but I wasn't as big a fan of Galaxy Squad and Mars Mission. Roboforce I actually have a soft spot for but I recognize it's kind of the red headed middle child of the Spyrius robots and Exo Force family. OG Space was also before my time and I have no emotional attachment to its builds.
>Animal Crossing sets are for babies and little girlsOkay, and?
>>11727304Yeah, some of the best stuff lego is putting out at the minute is sets for babies and little girls.
I hope the chinese make some bootleg eevee sets so I can make alternative pokemon like this.
>>11727309For me it was the Elves sets.

>>11727315It’s him but I think it’s real ignorance.the closer we get to bump limit the more his brain shuts off.

Jang boughted the fart brick
>>11726788I only buy Star Slop or the occasional "it's hitting me in the nostalgia" set but to an extent. Like I'm skipping all the pokemon sets and Zelda sets. But those Lego Donkey Kong? Yeah.
>>11726987I miss when the boxes were actually like physical photographs and not a bunch of different images and brick studio images pliced together in Photoshop with the most basic fucking shitty digital background.
>>11727355Wanna build Lego together?
>>11727630Wew, also those orb helmet things remind me of this piece here
>>11727630dang all dem cool piecesjust curious... how much?I've done that myself and those little bits add up quick. the total winds up over $100+ easy but then if you count up all the sets you would have needed to buy to get those pieces legit, it seems like an amazing deal.
>>11727687I don’t recognize that. Yeah I didn’t know the colorful orb helmets existed until I was on PaB. I’ll do something space related with them
>>11727696Total of $250. $90 Bestseller and $160 Standard. That was the standard order.
>>11727697Really old element, most “famous” time it was used was in Knight’s Kingdom II as a crystal ball in Vladek’s castle, has a few recolors and died in 2006. Belville part
>>11727679The pokemon sets all look quite bad to me, which is a bit of a mercy. If the finished product looked better, I might’ve ended up shelling out for the starters. I skipped over the deku tree (uncomfortable middle ground between playset and Statue, fails on both counts by my reckoning), but I’m absolutely picking up the Ganon set. Looks quite good to me, exorbitant price aside. Any reason you don’t like it?I’ll second the DK sets as well. Got his cart mostly for the DK build, and I picked up the Dixie and Squawks set for like $10 on Amazon. Got the Wario as well. I dig these little buildable characters. With the unique prints and pieces, I think they work quite well instead of minifigures honestly.

picked up dragon jay from the ninjago magazine today, next issue has dragon form lloyd so im guessing they're gonna release all of them eventually which is cool
>>11726940You can make an endless variety of polearms from common bricks.
>>11727800The pitchfork thing is kind of a myth, it only ever happened in peasant revolts or maybe emergency defence against village raids. Any actual levies would have at least a basic spear or something. Also pitchforks at the time were typically made entirely of wood.
>>11726873You sound like me. I buy maybe one or two sets a year, usually a Creator 3in1 set. Mostly I just buy parts online to MOC with, building Pirates, Castle and Western stuff. Currently I'm working on a mission styled Church for my Western display, but these two are my pirate MOCs I did, a remake of the old Volcano set, plus a mini Enchanted Island. There's a prison on the other side of the face statue there, with a trap door above to drop you in it. For the volcano instead of a spring shooting lava studs, you pull down a leaf on the back and the flames rise out of the top

>>11727906He is rightcan't wait to see legofags pretending how smartbrick is COOL AND EXCITING or some shit like that
>>11727916You misunderstood because I’m bad at communicating>Jang pretends he doesn’t watch Lego YouTubers>Jang complains that other Lego YouTubers hate new product just for views>refer to greentext line one>Jang also hates new product for views>Jang has come to the exact same conclusion as the other reviewers that he complains about
>>11727913I didn't stop, I didn't even have anywhere to go. I was just enjoying the drive, and seeing the hobo get hit made me enjoy it even more.
>>11727902the bit about"kids remove the canopy to put the figure in the ship, why can't they cover the gaping hole for the smart brick?"hehgood point
Why did lego do this?
>>11727951this is the type of thing that would benefit from some kind of explanation.why did Lego do what?what is this thing?am I expected to know what you're talking about?oh wait, let me do a bunch of homework researching what you're asking about... NOT!
>>11727968Get his ass!!But it seems Lego sent out a handful of promotional pikachu tail statues. Not sure to what end, if they’re just to get “influencers” hyped up or if they’re for store displays or something.
>>11727968His post is just marketing for that YouTube channel. No you are not supposed to know what he’s talking about. You are supposed to YouTube search to find answers giving him more traction
>>11727973>But it seems Lego sent out a handful of promotional pikachu tail statues. Not sure to what end, if they’re just to get “influencers” hyped up or if they’re for store displays or something.wow, is that Lego "paying" influencers?it's not exactly money, but it's an exclusive thing the influencers can sell for a gazillion sloppity-slop-slurping pokebuckssure hope they didn't waste the opportunity by opening it up and reviewing it on a video
>>11727982Aka falls under GR11, wish they would remove all ‘tubers.
Got this small Animal Crossing set used for free and its comfy as heck, fits real well with classic Castle Forestmen. It has me considering going back and giving those AC sets another look. I plan to incorporate this into my Forestmen MOC
Never seen somebody properly use this or some of the other prehistoric pieces in a build yet
>>11728005Picking up 20 or 30 of these stump pieces may be a good idea, I think they help add to that and in general are a useful piece, and could be used as a smaller version of the wild western stump
>>11728005AC sets are great but yeah don’t care at all about the animals. I want more little round environments. And you should make little Mocs for your forestmen to enjoy
>>11727844Is the double clip an official piece? I cant keep up with all the new parts. (Inb4 its 15 years old)
fun set
>>11728062Slowly trying to build up my technic pnumatics parts collection, may get a bit more this thursday
>>11727988Lego currently and openly sends big, expensive review sets to YouTubers and so on, so it’s not like this is new or clandestine or anything
Hey /lg/ can I get a definitive list of brittle pieces? I moved and took down my sets and noticed a few pieces cracked. Nearly 2 years later and now I'm finally unpacking the Lego and want to go through all the pieces before I assemble stuff again. So far I knowOld Pearl GoldBrown Dark RedDark Blue (?)Dark Green (?)>>11728005They're very nice Lego sets but very bad AC sets. Just like Mario. Terrible Mario sets but great pieces and builds. I got all the AC stuff and I especially like building houses and structures so they're great.
>>11728090if it's something exclusive, not available somewhere else?>>11727951this Pikachu tail is its own thing. I suppose if it didn't come in any special package or anything, it could count as a sort-of MOC made by Lego company (?) but it probably had some kind of letter attached to it at least (?) I'm not going to do homework and watch the video to find outLego sending "free" sets out for review is the most cost-effective advertising ever created in the history of advertising. imagine a TV commercial made for less than $100 a pop, even on the most expensive sets. realistically Lego should be paying thousands upon thousands of dollars for that kind of exposure, but all they need to do is mail off some sets, and it takes care of itself.
ITS OUT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1https://youtu.be/muvl3YTIqaY?si=hVoEPL6S0Y_pPrkd
>>11728097>Hey /lg/ can I get a definitive list of brittle pieces?anything made after 2010 seems to be lower-quality plastic(? is that about right? 2008 maybe?)the "cheese slope" is notorious for snapping in half, no matter what coloralso many things with a "clip" can get brittle. it's a miracle that the original minifig was designed with removable hands, I have a lot of ancient minifigs with snapped hands that have easily been replaced. I have a few Elves minidolls with snapped hands but you can't replace those
>>11728121Jesus, so it's worse than I thought. How any of you guys gotten free replacements? What if I'm rebuilding building a huge set, my pieces break, and I go in to replace them, get the new pieces, and then some more older pieces break as I continue? Does Lego replace the prices again on the same set?
You WILL pay for the stupid PokeBall case doubling the price of the thing you actually want
>>11728156minifigsbut $260aren't Pokemon fans LUCKY!!!I'm soooo jealous!!!ONLYTWO HUNDRED SIXTY dollars!!!aaaaahhhh!!!!I needed $400 to get my Star Trek minifigs, how is Pokemon only $260?!!!!
>>11728158Zelda tree was $300 with only 4 minis which means this will probably be like trainer red, professor oak or trainer blue and pikachu/eevee moldsFor star trek you get an actual crew
>>11728121How the fuck do you break hands? I have broken numerous arms, but hands? Literally never.Funnily 99% of my lego is from 2008 and below.>>11728097Just now tried to remove a dark blue arm from a minifig and it just broke into bits at the connection point, literally never seen anything like that before so there may be something about dark blue yeah.The "brittle brown" is only from a certain era, I think around 2014 to whenever they "fixed" it, older browns are perfectly fine.
>>11728156Go back to flooding the dragon ball threads Froggy.
>>11728168Can someone catch me up on the frog lore? He’s a paid shill posting leaks to gin up interest in sets six months from releasing? But he’ll also complain about the sets in the leaks (e.g. they’re bloated and expensive)?
>>11728163>how many minifigs for your $260??good pointdo you think Lego got"all pokemon" (including anime)?or "just-games Pokemon"?so Ash, or.. "Red, the generic video game guy?"max-nostalgia would include Jessie/James+Meowth, along with Ash/Brock/Misty+Pikachu/Geodude/Psyduckbut I don't know, that sounds like an awful lot for only $260 (sarcasm... as 5 minifigs + 4 molds should be like what, $600 for Lego?)if Lego "knows" anything about Pokemon, they need Caterpie/Metapod/Butterfree in the first set if Ash is in it
1/3 of the friends camper van is devoted to this gag. >kids fucking love it!
>>11728192AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
>>11728195just wait until they add the shart brick
>>11728164Jesus.
>>11728209I saw a display at target today… zero sales
>>11728235lolmy Target also had a full un-touched display thingwhat are the odds it's the same Target vs the odds that it's every Target? ha-hah
>>11728243I’m guessing every target. It was over by the pitiful game/electronics section. I remember when target had decent shit… now it’s just shit (or is it shart?).
>>11728025It's a Brickarms invention, but the ones pictured are from Aliexpress where they're 1c each instead of 25 and they're thicker and not as prone to breaking.
>>11727906"COMMENTERS could be here" Jang thought. "I've never been on this site before. There could be COMMENTERS anywhere." The cooling fan breeze felt good against his bare chest. "I HATE COMMENTERS" he thought. Everything is Awesome reverberated his entire Lego city, making it pulsate even as the $999 Star Wars set assembled through his powerful thick fingers and chased away his (merited) fear of keyboard warriors after dark. "With a Lego city, you can build whatever you want" he mumbled to himself, out loud.
>>11728235>$70>$90>$160Why is Lego so fucking incompetent?
>>11728272>release sets made for 8 year olds at Christmas present prices in Marchit's almost too funny
>>11728272>>11728283you could write full essays on what a disaster the Smart Brick turned out to be. ironically even they named it "Smart Brick"Lego, themselves, --have-- superior technology. The Mario figure makes perfect Mario sound effects. AND it's less expensive.
We are so fucking back
Spongebob bros... it happened
>>11728308Kamehameha right to the wallet!how much will it cost?OVER 9000!fun fact: some artist guy at Marvel working on the first Black Panther movie was a big Dragon Ball fan, and made Killmonger's uniform to match Vegeta's armor, so we already got that in a Lego set
>>11728235Same at my local Meijer. They had a whole endcap with every single smartbrick set and they were all untouched, like not a single one had been sold.
>>11728235They had to install security cabinets at my local Fred Meyer for these. Now all the Legos are locked up. Thanks Smart Brick!
>>11728309>>11728308Go away Pedo.
>>11728308I look forward to this release so it can be immediately forgotten like one piece
Guaranteed Dragon Ball will be another exercise in frustration. expensive. screw up a minor yet important detail, things included only to inflate the price...>>11728335>immediately forgotten like one piecethe Lego choices of the One Piece sets were all carefully designed to be as painful as possible, including, but not limited to:-the most-desirable character Mihawk locked into $10,000 ridiculous big set-the smaller sets included Luffy, and the hat, but not Luffy WEARING the hat. you needed to buy only the two most-expensive sets to get the main freaking character! (all that over one tiny hat/hair piece?)-the Wanted Posters were... random?? insane! and they didn't even make minifigs for all of them? insane, again!it's also painful that the lack of sales will be seen by Lego as a lack of interest in One Piece. and not any indication of the choices they made for sets. had Lego designed sets people wanted, they would have sold better. for example, if they made a $15 set with Mihawk and his tiny boat, every last fan would have bought that set. $15 set with Luffy and Koby in another small boat would be the very essence of the season (be a good marine, be a good pirate) would be on the office desk of every fan. nope! $330 is the buy-in price for that scenethanks for letting me vent. I did want Netflix One Piece sets, but not like Lego did, I have not bought a single one of them yet, and I freaking loved that show.
>>11728360Not a one piece fan (I read maybe the first four collected volumes 20 years ago), but Lego should’ve made sets for the iconic, decades long anime instead of the 3D pig disgusting live action show. Again, by no means a one piece fan, but I’d have bought a set or two if they were drawing on the actual anime
>>11728308It’ll somehow be dragonball evolution or something. We will never get True Anime sets >>11728323Stop being such an autistic retard
>>11728369I tried watching the anime years ago but turned it off due to the grating Luffy voice on the English dub. it was awful. only made it through a couple episodes. the anime fans will say b-but you have to wait, it really gets amazing after episode 750!!the Netflix version is solid gold. great from episode 1. it's short, too, so it's not a huge time investment, and the first season could even be considered a complete story, if you want it to be.I get why the anime fans are upset. it's the equivalent of making Star Trek sets off of the JJAbrahms modern mess instead of OG Shatner and Nimoy.
>>11728371He simply needs to be put down. Sick of this continual loop.
I've been working on a PAB order for the past week and literally every day castle minifigure parts pop in and out of stock or just disappear entirely and it's pissing me off. I'm afraid to even place the order if the stuff I want does eventually come back in stock because it might end up being delayed for 6 months again. Are kraken knights really that popular with castlefags right now?
