>>11728405So Spongebob is back under Icons, are you guys happy? I wish the brought it back as a playscale theme not adult sets...oh well
>>11728405i remember seeing the spongebob and atla sets in stores years and years agothey always looked super primitive even compared to the other sets available at the time
>>11728412Why the fuck would anyone be happy about it coming back under the worst theme? I am glad to at least be getting something again but I know it's going to piss me off as it's probably going to be AFOLslop with no play features and shit minifigures.
>>11728412>ARE YOU READY MANCHILDREN?AYE AYE, LEGO!>I CAN'T HEAR YOUR WALLETS!AYE AYE, LEGO!>OH, WHO IS NOT THAT FOCUSED ON UNDER 18?LEGO ICONS!>FEATURELESS, BLACK SHITTY BOX IT WILL BE!LEGO ICONS!>IF OVERPRICED NONSENSE IS SOMETHING YOU CRAVELEGO ICONS!>THEN DROP THOUSAND BUCKS AND FILL YOUR MAN CAVE!LEGO ICONS!LEGO ICONS!LE-GOOO I-COOONS!*low quality Smart Brick synth-flute beeping*
We heard you like minifigures and molded pokemon so we put a couple inside a pokeball build of thousands of pieces so we can charge you this much
Anons I bought a set on bricklink that was supposed to be a partially open box with sealed bags. Well one of the bags was opened and it was even missing a piece. Idk if it just fell out or if this seller raided it for that piece and then tried to pass if off as sealed. Obviously I'm not happy but when I contact him what do I even ask for? Refunding the cost of piece new is like five cents. I feel like he should compensate me more for how much he lied.
>>11728432The only Icons set I own is the Dune ornithopter and I still didn't built it.
>>11728435There will be other cheaper poke.on sets with minifigures, r-right?
Predictions on what minifigs will be included? I really hope it's not under Icons and it's its own theme and we get Kame House next, Frieza ship, Capsule Corp, etc. So much cool stuff. Vegeta as Great Ape diorama would go hard.
>>11728441Krillin with child legs because Legos loves putting child legs in everything
>>11728441I can't believe it's happening, it feels like yesterday when anons were shitposting this theme will come. Like I think this is the only place that always said "dbz is coming". Crazy.
>>11728412Won't be even close to pic related value
Lego is too expensive now, I'm tired of defending them, no more.
>>11728456I will just buy the cmf
>>11728459that dinosaur is great. will be my chase
>>11728459Where does the battery for the dinosaur go....

>>11728435>>11728441This is just like Star Trek. Insanely expensive dust collector and includes every fig. All or nothing paypigs, make up your mind soon because the GWP won't last!
>>11728432Kek, well done. I remember when lego just started this faggot shit with simpsons. I liked the show and wanted to get the set, thinking: ok, I can branch out a bit from the star wars theme, it won’t be that expensive since it’s so rare. But now we keep getting lego sets for every possible show/movie/book/nook/cum/soup. It just ain’t designed for you to be able to keep up. Also, since lego began overextending it just feels more cheap as a brand. Playmobile is gaining appeal in my eyes in some regards.
Perhaps....we treated them too harshly.
My favorite "lol-Lego" thing regarding the smart brick is probably that they're shoving green energy and electric car shit into everything but then have the sets and brick include specific gasoline-related functions and sounds.
>>11728511Shut the fuck up, bitch.
>>11728438I have the Blacktron Renegade, and aside from not using the old space boxart style (which they did for the other Blacktron remake set), it is a good reimagining of the original, scaled up to the size of the later Lego space capital ships. It also has actual play features like you'd expect from classic space sets (the detachable modules are taken straight from the original, and the ability to drop down a ground vehicle is a more refined version of a playfeature used in the Spyrius Saucer Centurion).
>>11728441>Predictions on what minifigs will be included?Kid Goku, Bulma, Master Roshionly.maaaaybe Krillin, tooonly the #4 Dragonballremember, it's going to be "not what people expect or want" at all. (Super Saiyan Goku vs Vegeta in the desert craters)also, $300 minimum.
>>11728476You have to be a troll right? No-one is this easily triggered.
>which dbz characters do you want as a minifigure?! Oh look this spam again. >>11728564Don’t you have some other threads to shit up like dbz, 3p, motu, dc, coomer… sounds like warhammer now too? Seriously, I’m pretty sure it’s one maybe two dudes across the entire board.
This was the OP of the Pbbg that got nuked the meltdown before last. Closest I think we can get to his face.
>>11728401Yes they are that popular. Yes lego does only have them in stock for a few hours and yes only the legs and only the shields and only the helmets and only the torsos. It sucks. My advice: there are discord servers you can join where a bot will notify you when parts are in stock. That’s what I did. Once I got my snek knights I left the server and I don’t remember the name but look one up on youtube. There will be ecelebs shilling it but this is a pump and dump scheme. Just leave as soon as you get your Krakens.
>>11728412SpongeBob is literally still on tv being enjoyed by small children same with pokemon why is lego doing this expensive high end adult collector shit for SPONGEBOB WHAT THE FUCK
>>11728476Huh?
>>11728541https://www.youtube.com/shorts/CMTnRzU70OA
It's over...
>>11728612Link it
>>11728416I like icons it has cool, intricate, accurate builds :^)
>>11728596>discord serversPedo. I bet you want to play Roblox too?
>>11728559>it’s not going to be what people expect or wantAt the very least, it’ll be DBZ, because that’s what westoid millennials Remember. (Would prefer Dragon Ball sets myself though)>>11728569>this spam againHow is “what would you want out of X upcoming set?” spam? I’m not playing dumb, don’t sperg out and call me a French nonce. It seems perfectly on-topic, and several people across this and the prior thread are speculating, laying out their hopes, or guessing as to how Lego will fuck this up. Seems like the sort of discussion you’d want on a Lego discussion board
>>11728432Based>>11728416Surely the bottom will fall out on this AFOOLslop eventually?
>>11728623>At the very least, it’ll be DBZ,look again. the professional, not-at-all-secretly-leaked-directly-BY-Lego-company, spoiler teaser, shows the cartoon-ish Dragonball logo.and you know somebody in the corporate meeting is like "we have to start with the first thing, and next year we can do the desert craters Super Saiyan vs Vegeta set"
>>11728631gotta hit the AFOLs with the kid Goku minifig with unarticulated child legs for maximum humiliation
>>11728533Maybe the problem is you like too many franchises? Like I love a shitload of IPs lego makes as sets now and expensive too and I can't keep up so I just give up.
When us lego Digimon coming out?
>>11728627>Surely the bottom will fall out on this AFOOLslop eventually?we've already done the math, only a few people per each of The Lego Stores need to buy a $400+ set in order to make a million dollars. and it's likely that each town has at least 5 or more crazy rich sloppity-slop-slurpers. there's literally nothing we can do about it, and as frustrating as it sounds, you can't blame Lego for max-ing profitsthere were pre-order release limits for the $650 Pokemon sets which sold out almost instantly and added up to like 50 million.
>>11728638When soilennials start dying off from the clot shot or diabetes at 43 years old, then what?
>>11728638I blame SW fags. They opened the slop gates by buying everything Lego puts out no matter the quality. They can literally own a set and still line up day one for the newer shittier version.
>>11728623For two years we’ve had to see that stupid Fortnite blackout image “leak” with “soon!” And then a shitpost about “which dbz characters do you want to see as minifigs?!” Then a pre made copypasta two paragraphs long about it. I’m not digging through the archives but feel free it’s all there… OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN.
>>11728631I seriously doubt it. Starting with dragon ball would, ironically, be like launching the Pokemon line with the gen 3 starters or something. As for the logo, I don’t know that it signifies anything. It’s the dragon ball franchise, Z is just a part of that franchise (and the manga itself doesn’t even distinguish between Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z — it’s all just Dragon Ball).Could be that someone picked that iteration of the logo in particular because it features shenron and its announcing a shenron set. Who knows.
>>11728634Yeah, exactly. But if they had a 10 dollar set with at least a fig from every IP that‘d be something akin to a solution to their greed.
>>11728650People seem to enjoy talking about the “spam” in this thread
>>11728631>goku vs vegeta battle set>it’s just four empty baseplates and two minifigures
>Samefagging this hard.
Just wanted to drop my two cents on all this Lego Icons and other things like that. I really don't get it. To me part of the fun of Lego is the minifigs. They are like universally compatible action figures. Crazy crossovers and just inventive character design is part of the fun. The buildings and vehicles are all to the same scale so suddenly Iron Man could fight Darth Vader, Chase McCain could arrest Mr. Krabs, and all kinds of seemingly incompatible franchises and suddenly meet and all be at the same scale. But all these Icons and 18+ sets are just model kits. If you want to build a model, get a regular model kit, it looks more accurate anyway. I loved the minifig scale 3-in-1 sets because these were builds meant for minifig play. I can also see the appeal of original building with Lego to make something wild or unique. But Icons and 18+ don't feed that idea. Maybe I'm just oldfagging here but it really feels like Lego has gone pretty far off track with what they were good at.
>>11728663>costs $320>every fat balding neckbeard on r*ddit has to pre-order it
>>11728665I agree, Lego used to have a consistent look and feel that was more than just everything's made of Lego bricks. Like they had a shared design language and balance between having interesting forms and accommodating the figs/play features. They are also mixing scales now in weird ways like in the recent Ashoka shuttle set. Sadly a lot of adult fans think the fun is over when they reach the end of the instruction manual which is so ass backwards and sad. They have no imagination and Lego doesn't make it easy for them to get better because the sets are so fucking overdesigned and impossible to disassemble let alone modify.
>>11728659>if they had a 10 dollar set with at least a fig from every IPnext time you're in a store that sells them, look at the Funko POP! Figure section. imagine each one was a Lego minifig version of that character. no tiny brick-build with it, just the minifig. $10 each. how many would you buy?Funko does it. clearly Lego could do it, if they wanted to.
Damn, what franchises won’t lego have? Competitors have to double down on cheaper prices, quality (no fucking stickers) and adult brands
>>11728672Funko pops are $20 in my country
>>11728540Mega Bloks Dragons>>>>all modern Lego themesImagine if Lego made a fantasy line on the level of Mega Bloks Dragons with all that lore and look
>>11728444It isn’t, just the french predator is so desperate for it he’s making up leaks now.
>>11728679But real leakers confirmed it's happening
>>11728631>>11728655The logo used in the leak is from a mid-90s dub. The original dragon ball logo looked like pic related. The leaker probably just picked something arbitrarily not lifted the logo off the DB wiki
>>11728665So? It's not like minifigs stop existing just because some sets don't use them. Are you retarded?>I loved the minifig scale 3-in-1 sets because these were builds meant for minifig play. Weird they didn't come with minifigs, then.Pissing and moaning about scale in Lego is a wild take. You're clearly just chafed that not every set fits into your autistic guidelines of what makes Lego "fun".
>>11728682This, it's a 100% dbz. Lego would be fools not to do it. Normies only know dbz not og db.
>>11728476You know, his behaviour in that regard reminds me of another european pest who won’t get sprayed, though this time from a much faster board, funny how the lolcows blend together
Just ignoring Lego and Brickling naming schemes, I like to think of Tan and yellow as being as the same familya as in this chart, but I'm not fully convinced on the classifications, Should orange and purple/pink be their own collumns?
>>11728680>>11728688You should take a walk off that cliff.
>>11728444>Like I think this is the only place that always said "dbz is coming". Crazy.that was snarky trolling based on the Fortnite Lego versionnobody thought Lego would actually do it, so much that when the "real" pro-leaks came out, people refused to believe it, lol I still don't believe it.
I hope it'll be cool and all, but it's wild to me to see even Spongebob of all the things go the way of the single expensive set at a time License.Yeah none of the Bikini Bottom sets before were very good, but 3818 Bikini Bottom Undersea Party did what it needed to with a couple of ok builds for the houses, a great Minifigure selection and a decent price.Do a fans of various random properties really want to shell out $200+ for the pleasure of having a LEGO representation of their favourite theme? I guess the answer is yes, and I'm in the minority who does not.
>>11728691Dark Tan’s internal name is Sand Yellow, so you’re on the right path, and it’s even in the regular yellow family by default. Pink/Purple and Orange do have their own layers as well.
>>11728696>>11728691Fucking image didn’t attach
>>11728412I want a Krusty Krab set
>>11728700Theres a very old one already, just get that or atlantis.
>>11728682>The leaker probably just picked something arbitrarilyoh no, those are fully-professionaldone by The Lego Companyhow is that not completely transparent at this point? it's a ridiculous pattern, over and over. Lego controls the narrative on all stages.if it was a "real" LEAK it would be like, the full minifig being sold on eBay for $20,000 that somebody snuck out of the factory, a year in advance.>>11728688>Lego would be fools not to do it.um......
>>11728683Faggot
>>11728695I don't think you are in the minority that does not, but the majority that does not. But that is the point of marketing high value sets for niche properties. The fan bases are relatively limited so they aim to go for smaller numbers of high value sets rather than larger numbers of low value sets. I read somewhere that the audience for Spongebob is about 25% 18-34 year old without kids, with likely similar numbers of other adults with kids. They could aim sets at children but that would mean more small sets need to be sold and they could also cannibalise sales of their other sets aimed at kids. So they aim for high value sales to a minority of adults.
>>11728707Also filename gives it away as an “original leak” aka the frenchman making shit up to satisfy his sick fetish, tired of him.
>>11728696>>11728698Thanks, I think Tan fits along all the other sands like blue and green, while Dark Tan feels like the yellow equivalent of the Dark/Earth/Metru colors.Maybe in that case the "sand" version of orange would be medium orange? (though may not have that much visual similarity, otherwisew was just being discontinued by the year 2000)I think there was some chart that put Brown/Reddish Brown (let's assume they are the same) as Dark Earth Orange or something
>>11728713There is a real dark yellow color (picrel) but it got used for jack shit outside of duplo (shame) since it’s a rather nice color and would fit yellow terracotta perfectly, also some of the browns are internally classified as shades of orange
>>11728711Got any proof?
>>11728715>>11728713I wonder which would have looked better for an Av-Metru, the dark tan or this literal dark yellow. Little hypotheticals are fun to think over but I feel the dark tan fits more for Po vs anything as a complimentary color.
>>11728707Ok well whatever. Even if we want to schiz-out, my point is the same. Whoever slapped the image together (whether it’s a leaker or two Lego marketers in a leaker’s trench coat) probably just lifted the first logo they found on the dragon ball wiki.The use of this logo (which was, again, from a mid-90s English dub) doesn’t necessarily signify this is going to be an OG dragon ball set. It’s absolutely going to be DBZ, because that’s where the biggest millennial childfree yuppie nostalgiab8 market is.
>>11728730>DBZ instead of DragonBall>because that’s where the biggest millennial childfree yuppie nostalgiab8 market is.that's why they did Star Trek TNG instead of Original Kirk/Spock. it clearly makes sense that the orange-uniform Saiyan Goku is 1000% more recognizable than kid-Gokuthis is a good lesson for the future, for one of us (which one? I don't know! lol) given that the leak patterns appear to be consistent. the pro-leak-employee may be using assets given to them by the art department, or they may be tasked with goggling them. my opinion is that they need to manage expectations, and use the correct logo to match the product, but it is entirely possible that they don't know any better, and just think "what? it's DragonBall, right? is there a difference?"
>>11728724Av-Matoran having the multi color gimmick is a good thing imo because it allows for more unique color combos you'd normally not associate with a specific Metru/Koro (ie Takua's blue and red). Shame they just did basic colorations for the ones we got in 2008.
We had this set growing up, same with Mrs Puffs Boating School.
>>11728715Oh that looks nice. I was mostly focusing on colors that are in circulation todayThinking it that way it seems way more orderly. Though some of the purples and oranges seem to be wherever was space, BTW, one criteria I had, is that during the 2000s through the 2010s, basic brick buckets went from having the primordial Red, Blue, Yellow and Green (plus Black and White), to adding Md. Blue, Lime, Dk. Purple and Orange. At times pink too (either trough dark or pink, but maybe a latter one had both)So it went down to>Standard Color>Color in the same hue but distinct enough (along some historical precedent)>Dark/Earth>Sand>Some other hueAnd I may add>Yet another hue ??? (no particular criteria)>Very Light/Bright Light hue (maybe BL Orange should go here, I feel it's more prominent than the other BL colors which is why I first put it above)>Neon (this category is far too new)For the green leftovers, maybe it would work with making a new collumn for lime. Maybe with Bright Green taking the place below green as it long hsa been used for accessories and baseplates before seeing some usage in bricks in the last years
>>11728776This kind of shit gives me duckbricks vibes.https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=LAxvJMNGXlw&pp=ugUEEgJlbg%3D%3D
>>11728707>blurry pixelated images >shitty off-brand clip art>”yep, this was done by a pro alright.”I don’t understand. These aren’t particularly glossy images. It’s almost always text on a black background usually with a generic, badly cropped (sometimes unofficial) image around which the text is haphazardly wrapped.What about this screams “professional” to you?
>>11728748You are insane, leaks are not planned lmao, companies hate them
>>11728786>leaks are not planned>companies hate them You’re either retarded or outing yourself as a “leaker” Lego insider. “Leaks” follow a set predicable pattern and it is exhausting. If they hated the “leaks” they wouldn’t do it with the same 4 percent Gaussian blur every time.Actual leaks get shut down hard because companies love to control their own advertising and branding. Look at that guy that got the Pinkertons on his ass by wizards of the coast. If there were any real leaks they could easily track it down. I bet Lego has the best nanny software installed on every company machine and they know what get saved when by who.
>>11728783Foolish Gweilo. Only through the study of the way the Wuxing of Black White Blue Red Yellow ramificates into the greater palette, phasing through the deceptions of newer colors, can you then cultivate Lego mastery.
>>11728795Is the pattern literally just “leak released X months before set, more details formalized as set’s release date nears”? Couldn’t your expertly recognized pattern also apply to genuine leaks?And if Lego is so chill about leaks, why do they issue cease and desists or DMCAs or whatever else, or why do they penalize and cut off Lego influences who dabble in leaks? Even people like what’s his name (the guy who whines endlessly about clones), guys who aren’t actually formally affiliated with lego and can’t even lose partner status, are terrified of including leaked images in their videos.
Why is anyone surprised or even that mad that shills dump leaks and shit? It is par for the course when they also do shit like send free sets to LAN "influencers" to glaze the new sets, and pay off journalists to hype up shit like the shartbrick sets. They pump so much money and resources into this that some rando dropping images 6 months out feels like nothing.
>>11728806There’s clearly nothing I can say that’ll convince you. It’s been repeated here many times and I’m too lazy to look it up or half hazardously retype it again. Prove it. Someone post a leak that isn’t already reposted on Reddit or some wall of “rumored” sets. Last time we got even close was the deku tree and even that still followed the same pattern.
>>11728806>why do they issue cease and desists or DMCAs or whatever else, or why do they penalize and cut off Lego influences who dabble in leaks?that's exactly why you can tell it's a real employee who constantly doesn't get lawyer'd-upI did it once before, so I'll try to do it quick it again, but the pattern is so consistent you could put a calendar to it, if you cared to measure it.1: code-name {might be ___!}2: theme reveal! (maybe -rumor- lol)3: list of set numbers, future release estimate4: list of set numbers with piece counts, maybe minifig list, release date known5: blurry images! (crazy blur!!)6: corporate desk with one or two new pieces (this part is recent) very crisp pics7: slightly-less blur images? maybe some kind of event photos?8: official images released to news press, this is the diversity-caveman studio apartment clear pics9: release date (Month) 1I might have missed a step, but it's been constant for about a dozen years at this point>>11728811>Why is anyone surprised or even that mad that shills dump leaks and shit?this is going to sound "corporate" but whatever. with the decline of standard television and magazines and stuff, modern society is desperate to figure out what counts as "advertising" and... we get what we get
>>11728822Dude, I’m not invested one way or the other on the LQ (leaker question). Right now, my position is that it’s unlikely these leaks come from a formal, authorized shill as part of an ongoing marketing campaign. On the other hand, you seem deeply (even emotionally) invested in your position. This anti-leak campaign appears to be a not insignificant aspect of your personality. It seems, at least from where I’m standing, you’re far more dug into your position than I am. I’d also note that you’ve positioned Lego as both skillfully Machiavellian and completely bumbling at the same time, and you flit between these positions to explain away evidence that ought to run counter to your view — all roads lead to Rome, for you. These could be formal, sanctioned leaks, I genuinely don’t know, but there’s enough contra-indicative evidence to suggest otherwise. But I’m open to your position, I’m just not convinced by “muh patterns.”>>11728826>vague leaks become clearer and more detailed as release date nearsIs this not exactly what we’d expect in either case? I don’t see this as evidence for either position.
>>11728516>includes every fig.and by every fig she means Red and Oak figs and bulbasaur/charmander/squirtle molds
>>11728441I fear it will be based on super and it will include Goku, Vegeta, Bulma on their worst designs plus Beerus, Whis and maybe Piccolo

Scavenging has not been good lately but today I have made a comeback. While I am excited when I find these I can’t help to feel a bit sad knowing the rest of the pieces got away from me.
Hello people, it's my first time posting here. What was your first lego set? Mine was 6177, and I remember it was my 6th birthday and my parents got me this set. Fond memories of building country flags out of the 2x4 bricks.
>>11728914Those paw print and doge piece are pretty sweet.
>>11728864>seem deeply (even emotionally) invested in your position.my apologies. I've been told before that my emails read as if I'm angry while typing them. not sure how to stop that though, (I think it's because I tend to over-explain things. like this explanation, for example! lol)but ultimately, I don't care. I actually like "playing the game" somewhat. I do like the recent upgrade to corporate desk-photo, it seems more like a real thing that would be leaked.and I'm not closed to thinking they might not be genuine "leaks" either. but the patterns are so obvious at this point, I feel the odds are very low.
>>11728672Funko is retarded…. Well.. I’ve seen they make some really obscure characters amd versions of characters (like a joker batsuit) which is pretty cool but collecting many is retarded. I‘d buy some 10 euro figs. But a side build would naturally make it better. Imagine a Mando‘s speederbike for every licensed theme but less shitty.
I am become onions, destroyer of T
>>11729030Bunch of French commie books on the shelf… yep that tracks.
>>11729030I got the 3-in-1 Horse Knight castle, Eevee, and the Sushi stand GWP along with the Pokecenter Insider set, and just sold the pokecenter set for almost $150. So I got that whole order for like $50.
>>11729057No cred for Wealth of Nations?>>11729074I didn’t realize the sushi GWP was out. The site kept crashing and I wanted to make sure the pokemon center was locked in, so I just sort of hastily bought the OoT set. I’d have gladly added an extra ~$20 for the GWP had I known

Got a bunch of bricks today, not the MOST but enough for how long I was there, and a lot of it was bionicle, also 1 and a half pontoons. Plenty of rare bricks and weird stuff obtained (including a lot of hockey parts) so yeah, also fucking /biog/ is on the verge of dying again, whole order was 50 bucks though
>>11729092I really like the Wolverine in the sweater, probably my favorite Marvel minifigure in a christmas outfit, but not making Santa Xavier with the hover chair as a sleigh and Cyclops as Rudolph was a massive fumble
>>11729174Those were the days
>>11729307I was referring to Ice Age.
>>11729320I dont really care
>>11729320Theres no Lego ice age theme
>>11729322Planet. I meant Ice Planet.
>>11729325Yeah I know
I'm putting together a list
>>11729384Bathhouse moc?
>>11729384you're putting together a similar list for female minifigures... r-right, anon?
>>11729223>pieces stuck in the wheelThis happened to me and it's why I autistically sort everything.
>>11729475
I have a large collection (40+ sets)
>>11729491I have to pull everything apart as well, also weird how this massive wheel was only in 3 sets
>>11729533>(you)
>>11728683Tell us you are an Icons shill without saying you are an Icons shill.
>>11728683I think you missed the point I was trying to make. I liked the imaginitve nature of building around minifigs. Make a minifig of yourself and suddenly it's you in flying the plane or driving the car. Like playing with Hot Wheels as a kid but a bit more personal. Now your specialized action figure is sitting in the driver's seat. Take the head of that minifig and put it in on a space body, suddenly you are the space man. That was part of what I liked about the last City Space wave. I came up with my own cast of characters to have space adventures in those colored suits. Even the printing on the back made it look like a built-in jetpack, so now they can fly without the big air tank piece. But Icons and 18+, you might as well just be Duckbricks and hang it on a wall or shove it behind other models on overcrowded shelves.
>>11729567NTA but I get what you mean. I have a similar mindset in that if I see a set, I imagine what else I could build around it. Be it a building, landscape or similar. Each set gives me more and more ideas. So the roleplaying aspect you are describing goes hand in hand with mocing.The Duckbricks syndrome of hoarding sets by putting them on a shelf and forgetting about them goes far deeper I think. The sets are build in a way that discourages building anything else out of the pieces you get, because they use all kinds of weird colors inside.Icons is LEGO for normies, not for people that already are into LEGO. Adults did buy sets before they were put into ugly black boxes, except it were sets for kids. Thats what AFOOLS don't want to admit.
Soon
>>11728441>Hey it's me, Lego Goku!
>>11729609Holy based. For someone who is not a kid, this is great news
>>11729612The fact that there was always the term AFOL shows there was already deep insecurities with the fandom. At the very least with whoever's made that term. We dont see adult fans of video games, adult fans of model trains, adult fans of anime etc.
>>11729609>Lego isn't for kids anymorefake newssowwy. as long as there are $20 and under sets, kids will get themis it cruel to dangle more-desirable sets in front of them that are un-obtainable? yep. those kids will miss out. but, they will grow into adults who will remember that pain, and feel the need to purchase all the $800 sets they were denied in childhood. Lego is invincible
>>11729667>marijuana is for kids because it's under $20.
>>11729666>adult fans of video gamesAFOVGlol Lego has those!I always, and still, think AFOL (ay-fall) is a painfully dumb acronym. it has the sound of an insulting mark of shame. it makes me cringe every time I hear it.

just so everyone knows, the little trophy piece in the big fifa trophy set is chrome gold
>>11729687And they waste chrome tech on that instead of anything
>>11729679It’s such an embarrassing posture to take, it just sounds shameful and apologetic. “I like Lego but, like, in a mature way, it’s not kiddy at all, it’s actually very intricate when you properly dig into it.”
>>11729632This better not be some $600 monstrosity
im a bing bing wahoo retard and is it true that mario electronic playsets are going to be discontinued after this year?
>>11729666>the term AFOL>>11729700>I like Lego but, like, in a mature way, it’s not kiddy at allwhat's going to be THE THING that Lego crosses the line with?if Lego is making sets for "adults" then do it.make sets FOR adults!the time has passed for The Walking Dead, or Game of Thrones. but something has to be the thing that Lego does as 100% for adultsFisher-Price Little People did it already, and those are for freaking babies.if I had to guess, I would say some kind of CMF with horror movie monsters. Alien, Predator, Robocop... things kids kinda know about, but are still from rated R movies (just a guess, some people might say the Queer Eye set already counts lol)

>>11728704Those fucking suck, I want an updated, accurate version
>>11728914You should make some sort of mech and put that dog print as the face
>>11728436Calm down. If the bag and box wasn't sealed try looking somewhere under the flaps of the shipping box.Then contact the seller and be like "Hi, I received the package but X piece is missing."He will either refund you the 5 cents or he will ship the piece.

what set i should try next?
>>11728540When I was a kid I had this owl tree playset and it was one of my favourite toys as a kid. I never had much 90s castle stuff from lego at all so it might have been my biggest set until knights kingdom
just wanted to share my pickups.
>>11730071How much did it cost?300 dollars?
>>11730071Based. This is my fave minifig-centered mini-vehicle
I really like the new dragon ninja for 2026. It feels like an evolution of having pet dragons, summoning elemental dragons, to using dragon martial arts to literally turning into the dragons. I wish the minifigures had a piece similar to the Vidiyo dragons or Dragonborn instead of a new mask piece. I really suspect that Ninjago creators are scalies, because this is literally furry TF.
Just got these fellas at the second hand Lego store.
>>11730094I'm pleasantly stunnedit's the opposite of the Mario setswhy make a single minifig when you can make a giant thing built out of bricks? they've been making giant brick Ninjago dragons forever already.
>>11730101>it's the opposite of the Mario setsI agree, it's cringe instead of based like Mario. Dunno why zoomers hate building so much, must be the same brainrot that makes them want to fuck animals.
>>11730071Sad this style of set went out of fashion. I know polybags exist but even those don't feel quite the same.
>>11730139The idea of a cool little $3-$5 boxed set is pretty much an alien idea to Lego these days.
>>11729679>is a painfully dumb acronymLego acronyms are cringe as fuck, we also have things like SNOT and BURP. But yeah, AFOL is the worst of them all. Funny how these "adults fan of Lego" come up with the most childish terms imaginable.
>>11729708Id pay 600$ for a Lego Goku. I'd pay any price for a Lego Goku. They need my leg and first born? Ill take two Gokus.
>>11730189get a monkie kid, bozo
>>11730193Lego Super Saiyan 4 Goku will be sick. Happy they did a beta test before doing the offical thing.
>>11730189>Id pay 600$ for a Lego GokuI'd Pay $300 for a Lego Zelda!I'd pay $400 for a Lego Picard!I'd pay $650 for Lego Pokemon, anything!I'd pay....yeah Lego already knows
>>11730200I wouldnt pay that much for any of that slop. Goku though, Goku can have anything. Lego knows Goku is going to become the new face of Lego and even did a beta test before to get the tech down.

>>11730342The most cursed thing I have seen online this week.
>>11730196it will not be an adult Gokuit will be feral child Goku and the grandpa who tamed him(before he got murdered)
>>11730301>Why the fuck are his eyes fucked up?it's been pointed out before, the short-answer is that Lego has "design standards" when a character has noted eyes with an odd color, they are required to do the hollow-eye-color thing.Data has unique gold eyes, so the minifig needs to show that. I'm not saying I agree with that, but that's the answer I heard somewhere
>>11730344
>>11730493
>>11730493>>11730496the coil is hidden inside the plastic of the 2x2 tilewhy did the minifigs need to be glued together? couldn't they just do the same thing with the plastic torso?and... where is the warning signs on the tiles? is there a trashcan icon somewhere on the tile? should there be?
>>11730438>It will not be Goku>It will be Goku and GohanSay no more, im sold.
>>11730509I think the torso+legs are stuck together because they're not a standard leg assembly, the hip piece is designed with a different style of attachment because the coil unit takes up more space within the torso's interior.No idea about the warning signs on the tiles
>>11730493Flavor?
>>11730493>>11730496When will modders start getting those bricks to start making new sounds?
>>11730558It's probably possible with a flipperzero once people understand the data formats
>>11730558OMG yes!!there's a little hockey puck thing you can re-program to be any Amiibo you want it to be. you have to use a small program to switch them.imagine someone else (Lego themselves would never do it?) did the same thing but with a "compatible with leading brands" tile???!!!!if I could program the brick to play custom tunes or sounds or something else.... THAT would sell me the Smart Brick
Which Lego set is this from?
>>11730235I don't get the appeal of these sets, but they remind me of belville.

>>11730663>>11730567You guys are expecting way too much from something that struggles to play beeps and boops.
>>11730344fuckin hell, why do youtubers have to talk so fucking much, just get to the interesting shit already.
>>11730509Yeah it's weird that the tags don't have the warning symbols on them, is it cause they're too small?
Apparently it’s fairly common place for bricks and minifigs to seize consignments and sell them.
>>11730691
>>11730691>>11730693Lego really is bringing out the worst in humanity the same way pokemon cards are
>>11730728Lego Dragon Ball will save Lego.
>>11730691>>11730693Ok wait, they “stole a family’s life savings”? what’s being alleged there? How do you lose your life savings to a lego reseller store? Or were their life savings bound up in children’s building blocks?
>>11730735
>>11730751My thoughts exactly. Did they trade in their family savings for second hand lego credit?
Not only is lego Dragon ball not happening but even if it somehow did it would be DBS shit instead of basedm original dragon ball.
>>11730691Did they put up a sign defaming themselves, or did the person who sued put that up?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GpTk6tOOgfo5:35>smart brick gets stuck in an infinite loop because the color sensor detects the led lights on the top of the brick reflecting against the black plastic one stud away from the light sensorholy shit did they even playtest this?
>>11730751>>11730755Here’s the story apparently: “The large collection my 83 year old Father and I put together over 10 years or so to help pay for his grandkid's college (780 sets and over 1200 minifigs) was consigned to a shop, that the parent corporation seized, and they refuse to give us back our collection, and in fact are actively selling it in store.”They apparently had tens of thousands of dollars tied up in this, and handed it all over to some fucking reseller store. I’m all for “alternative investments” or whatever, but imagine having all your savings tied up in fucking plastic blocks and, on top of that, entrusting all ~$70,000 of those blocks to some scumbag Lego pawn shop lol. Not that these guys should’ve been scammed, but my god, have some fucking sense.>>11730777It seems some YouTuber put the sign up.
It's over.
>>11730691>seize consignments and sell them.I'm also confused and too lazy to look up what this means.it sounds like the store is bitter and wants customers to be mad at the people who sued them.that's a lot of work that went into the graphic design of that sign. they put little Lego blocks on it.
>>11730797Thats not even the worst part. As seen in the video shooting another object with a 2nd Smart Brick does not require aming at it. It's literal false advertising. Lego Super Mario doesn't look that bad anymore compared to this.
>>11730797The throne room battle set is so bad that GermanJang "broke character" for the first time ever (afaik) and flat out called something "shit" in a non-streaming video.
>>11730805This was the most shocking to meDidn't the marketing material say that smart bricks are capable of determining the precise position and orientation of other objects in the smart network?Yet what we got is just basic proximity detection, and the orientation of the brick itselfI can't tell whether this was intentionally deceptive marketing, or the marketing people just fundamentally don't understand what was explained to them by engineers
No matter how much you try smart bricks will be a success.Get a life.
>>11730822Gargle my shart dick
>>11730674I'm pretty sure the videos have to hit a certain length for algorithm pushs.>>11730803Consignment is like, how a person like me or you can drop something off and sell it through a business, and you get the money, but the store you sell it through collects a portion of it as like a finder's fee. I'm guessing those people dropped off their sets and the B&M kept them and dipped or sold them and dipped with the money.Anyway, I've been in Bricks and Minifigs twice, and probably 80% of their prices are over even eBay. Funny enough, the most recent time I was there was just yesterday. I saw a dad and two kids come in to sell some sets, and they gave the kids $15 for $130-ish worth of sets.
>>11730826This basically.
Check out my Forestmen base I'm building right now. Sadly I dont have enough blue pieces for the roof abd had to use red. I'm gonna try getting more blue later. I have most the pieces I needed for it.
>>11730797>>11730805>>11730806>>11730815One of the most telling things to me is that another channel called Brick Fanatics actually spent like half of the review letting his kids play with the Smart Brick sets. Sure, you can have a bunch of adults talking about how bad the Smart sets are, but if kids were enjoying them, then they were hitting the intended audience.They were actually enjoying the smart play features at first, but by the end of the play session, they were just flying the ships around making their own noises over the smart brick noises anyway. By the second day, they went back to playing with their other lego sets, and by the third day, with some urging from the dad, they played with the sets, but without the smart brick, and at the end of it all when they were asked what they liked about the kids said they only sort of liked the fact that you could have dog fights with the ships.Ironically, the best things they liked about the sets where that they were downsized vehicles, and it was easier for them to swoosh the ships. So hilariously, the only thing they liked about the smartbrick was that its inclusion was that it made the sets easier to build and play with since they were gimped to accommodate the smart brick features.
>>11730837Looks comfykino, ngl.
>>11730826>>11730833thanks for the explanationwhat a mess. yikesthey were dicks to put up that sign. sorry the store closed y'all, blame the guys that rightfully sued our punk asses for stealing 100k+ worth of sets. we'd rather close the store than give them their money or sets back. enjoy our high quality graphic designed sign with little bricks on it.
>>11730735Based
>>11730839Something else that's telling:Almost EVERY reviewer so far that was at least somewhat positive or optimistic received the sets for free.Hell, nearly all of the 5 star reviews on Lego's own German site are marked with "product received for free" besides a single "LEAF LEGO ALLEIN, YOU HÄTERS!!1!" review and another nondescript "fast shipping, good service" one.
>>11730803>it sounds like the store is bitter and wants customers to be mad at the people who sued them.I'd assume that the banner was not put there by the store.
>>11730735>>11730852You deserve to be shot.
>>11730867He’s a damn pedo.
>>11730080i got a deal.only 299.98
>>11730862Did you wake up from a coma?This was already known for like 15 years.
>>11730862Fuck Lego is sending these chuds FREE 600 dollar sets? Wtf? Like no shit they are going to leave a positive review. Dont wanna lose that.
>>11730802Does it actually have problems, or is this all just, as is custom, pure speculation from a 300 subscriber YouTuber?
>>11730342You would need to train it purely on instructions, rather then pictures. It would be a specialized Lego AI instead of just another image generator.
>>11730573I remember him! He's from that Talmuds & Tunnels ideas set that came out 2 years ago.
lego pikachu
>>11730896Lego has always sent the LAN members the sets for free. Most of them are obviously super apologetic toward any bad or negative facets to any sets. Most of them will only vaguely and lightly call a set overpriced, because Lego will kick them out of the LAN if they talk too negatively about sets.
>Went to lego store today>Digging through build-a-minifigure for some parts>Came across the pearl gold Santa pieces from last Christmas>Oh shit, they still have these? I need the pearl gold arms and legs>Digging around for an hour>Find 2 or 3 heads>Two or three beards>One torso>Two left arms and handsDamn I was really hoping to find a full figure. The parts selection was so weird. I also wanted to build one of the darker blue classic space men, but the don't seem to have the oxygen tanks or helmets, so I made him a slime alien thing.
>>11731006just ask the employees if they have more pieces in the back dude, and they never released the oxygen tanks and helmets for the dark blue minifig in BAM only in a dreamzzz set
>>11730896>Fuck Lego is sending these chuds FREE 600 dollar sets? Wtf?if you think the reviewers are getting the better end of the deal, you're wrong. I'm not going to map out the whole path because I'm too lazy and nobody wants to read the essay, but this is basically Lego "paying" for advertising. for Lego, it's virtually free. something that used to cost A LOT in video production and TV commercial air-time, is all being done for the price of a few sets. it's insane.it's mind blowing how the "system" works, most "complaints" by the reviewers boil down to "it's a great set but costs too much." and all Lego likes hearing is "it's a great set"and the reviewers clue Lego in with free advise! you say kids love the smaller-size X-Wing! great! now we know! next year, get ready for $130 combo set with 3 smaller-sized ships!all that for one free set? yep. okay I wound up typing more than I thought. lol thanks for reading my blog post
>>11731006why would you get plain brown legs? I have to imagine you have plenty of those in any kind of normal collection. even if they didn't have any other unique legs to pick from, you could have gotten any other pieces.I once filled a build-a-minifig thing with 15 Chihuahuas when they had them lol
>>11731011Seeth more.
>>11731010when this fails I just request the part, if you tell them you didn't get it at a BAN they'll honor it. thankfully all the 18+ slop sales funds good customer service; I got a hat with molded elf ears sent by itself from Denmark.
>>11730999Duh right? Free stuff and you get paid to talk about it? Only an idiot would give that up.
>>11731105Sure, but the point is, you're not going to be getting a terribly unbiased opinion watching someone who not only didn't pay for the item, but also has to walk on eggshells and not necessarily be all that truthful lest the risk losing their LAN status.
>>11731116Exactly, also alot of reviewers who are starting might be more inclined to kiss Lego's ass to get on the sweet list. I cant even blame theme people for doing this is all. There should definitely be some kind of law that requires reviewers to disclose if they are on this kind of list. All we can really do about it because why wouldnt corporations and reviewers do this shit? Its mutually beneficial and we the normal person are the only ones really negatively effected.
>>11731024No argument that the set is cool, it's just that the price tag is exorbitant. Luckily the Ganon set is a lot more reasonable so it seems like they got the message.
>>11731174>no argument that the set is cool, it's just that the price tag is exorbitant. Isn’t this exactly what these official reviewers are saying?
>>11731211my issue with it is that the lame 2 in 1 does nothing to increase the value, just the price. having it commit in either direction game-wise would have been better for price and execution, with a more concise figure line up. like if they had that hermit that gives you the glider for the BoTW one or Saria if it were OoT.
>>11730896Don't forget that when they only make 10k of a highly desirable GWP, 1k of those are going out to LAN influencers who didn't have to pay. So you get faster sell out times and higher aftermarket prices as a direct result of LAN.
>>11731222Yeah, I didn’t buy it because I don’t really care all that much about BotW, and like a quarter of the pieces were dedicated to that build. Also I wasn’t all that impressed with the OoT deku. Ganon was a day1 buy for me, even though it’s arguably even less fairly priced
>>11731242I like the final battle set, but it feels like yet another Lego set where a large part of the pieces goes into the base.
>>11731249Its roughly 8% of the pieces in the base, pretty flat and mostly large pieces. everything after bag 1 is building details and creatures. Not like Pogermans where there's around 2400 pieces (more than Venusaur and 3x Charizard's pieces) in bases. I think its pretty lean for a terrain build, in like with dioramas.
>>11730913I'm not going to watch the video but they may be referring to how all of the Pokemon playsets are apparently going to use the smartbrick
>>11730802>"has problems">Literally selling outYeah sure buddy.
>>11731349Appeal to popularity fallacy
>>11731364I'm saying financially it isn't a problem because it's selling out, and at the end of the day that's all they care about.
The smart bricks were entirely torpedoed by the decision to include the sound/program data on the NFC chips instead of the brick itself. That's why they can't do accurate sounds or voicelines, the NFC chips can only hold about 1 kB so they have to store them in their custom midi-like format which the brick plays like a pianola.It would be better if the brick would connect to your phone via bluetooth and you could use an app to customise the programs/sounds, but the smart bricks still come preloaded with the relevant set's sounds in case you can't use the app. That way they could still use the Star Wars sounds in the Star Wars sets only without making the smart bricks themselves permanently locked to one set only. It would even encourage creativity where you can make your own programs for your own creations, instead of just "This brick acts like Darth Vader's TIE Fighter when it's on the TIE Fighter tile". It could be a bit like Mindstorms but with light/sound instead of robotics.And yes, they would presumably have preset sounds and stock sound effects only on the app so you can't make your legos say nigger and the video goes viral on Xitter, at least until someone jailbreaks it.
>>11731242I was going to buy Zelda out of nostalgia for the late 90s but then it made remember what legos were like in 1997 and it seemed weirdly unappealing.
>>11731367what about the children though? Lego is for children, the only thing they can create is shit in a bedpan
>>11731318Supposedly only about half of the summer playsets range is gonna use the smart brick, cause otherwise they'd only be able to sell them in 6 countries.
>>11731367Lego wanted it to be screen free though, and I guess they figured kids wouldn't really care about the crappy sounds.
I love watching our resident spammer bounce between generals early in the AM. >it’s afternoon hereWe know it is.>I have no baguette but I must bread
>>11731174>the Ganon set is a lot more reasonableIs it? €119.99 for 1000 pieces is still way too expensive in my book. Nintendo IPs getting turned into LEGO sets is a blessing and a curse, because Nintendo fans have the habit of being mindless drones that buy and support everything. I mean have you ever wondered why there aren't big and expensive sets for Sonic or Minecraft?
>>11731387Not every kid was retarded like you. Many would learn computer skills or create things. Even if the result is as simple as "play crackling fire sound effect and emit red light when I push this button", kids will be impressed that they can make something like that on their own.
>>11731443If only there were some readily available way to teach kids how to code using Lego… oh wait I can snag this for less than a shart brick.
How do I get back into lego?I have small obsession over old or new shit for a period and then forget about it. Looking at mech sets for weeks planning to get one, but there are so many options so I give up.Too many options + expensive sets just throws me back to the dark ages
>>11731464Pick up Surprising Spider and Donut Truck. They are absolute peak and dirt cheap.
>>11731435>Thinking french people look like that stillHoho you gotta get out more, bucko.
You will put the Smart Brick into your LEGO. You will eat the bugs.
>>11731503>the hoard I try not to get near or think about brown people any more than humanly possible. >pic relatedOof. I pray for a comet.
>>11731464Don't. It's a waste of time and money. Do something better with your life, get into woodworking, painting or learn a language.
Got this recently from a large eBay buy. I was wondering if anyone knew where it was from. I just used it as part of a brainbot minifig I wanted to make.
>>11731542The torso and legs are from Dr. Oswald's fig here. Just wish I could have gotten the monkey body as well. Thought it could be a way the brainbot leaves his secure area. Smaller body he won't miss if it gets blown up.

Just wanted to show the rest of the idea I had for a gold robot. The faux circuit patterns on that gold armor seemed perfect for a robot. Also thought this helmet would help bring the whole thing together as well. I had considered a gold wheelchair as well, meant to help convey he is for thinking, not action. Does anyone know how to build around a wheelchair piece to make it more like a hovering throne?
>>11731559Why make that much effort. There are plenty of minifig waifus out there.
>>11731580Because i want to violate lego Taylor Swift
>>11731585Based.
>>11731510I miss octan
>>11731599I'm excited for the Lego Dragon Ball vehicles that will eventually come out. Toriyama drew Goku and friends in Formula 1 cars so maybe we will get those some day?
>>11731526I love lego french people. <3
>>11731615I didn’t notice Yakub on the far left. >>11731526
>>11731612Ok
>>11731612Pedo.
>>11731559>Should I buy the Taylor Swift custom minifigures?I don't think there's any reason you couldn't make your own custom Taylor Swift minifig, it's not like you'd need some kind of iconic outfit or face or hairstyle or anything.there's plenty of official Lego celebrities already available to choose from, too
>>11731629She can get it too
>>11731628Freaking, huh?
>>11731648>huh>>11728476
>>11731464>>11731464Build one of these.

>>11731443You clearly have never met a gen alpha kid
>>11731760Im glad you’re not allowed within 500 ft of a school.
>>11731775You clearly don't know what you're talking about which suggest (you) are the one banned from interacting with children
>make a wanted list on bricklink>ends up costing $300 because of all the separate stores and international shipping fees
>>11732020$300 is nothing if you are not a neet or with kids
>>11732035>Spending $300 on toy blocks is nothing.
>>11732046This is the real way LAN makes lego money. It's not reviews/exposure. It's normalizing huge hauls and convincing people that once a set is built you should leave it on a shelf somewhere and never touch it again so you constantly need new Lego to keep building.
>>11732049Ok
>>11728441going by the One Piece trend, it's going to be a Dragonball Evolution set because fuck you.
>>11732020You need to set a max price for each part and tick the box before searching stores.
>>11732020Depending on wha or how much you’re ordering, that’s actually to be expected.
>>11730958all instructions are free and available online, someone should make this.
Kek. It is a big Luigi kart.
75647 Gum Gum Fruit is $70 coming August.
>>11732214Comes with kid and adult Luffy minifigsThis is a very interwsting rwtail swt
>>11732214lego fidget spinner piece?
>>11732216>>11732217Looks new
>>11732218Fruit can be removed
Revealed for Mario Day, $180. Coming april 1st. Seems course building system is dead.
>>11732224He is cute but I ain't paying $180 on that.
Pedo
>>11732214>>11732216>>11732218Yo ho ho! He took a bit of Gum Gum!
I’m not gay enough for this week’s gwp. What’s the next one?
Ok, call me crazy, but look at the sword...
>>11732244And then at this one from overwatchThe chances are around -1 and 0 but a man can cope
>>11732224>Seems course building system is dead.Doesn't this just pair with the giant mario mario kart model which also isn't designed for the course building system?
>>11732252I meant that because Lego didn't say anything about it on Mario Day, usually they'd drop a teaser for the next wave of course building and since we know all starter sets are set to retire in June with all the other sets in July it seems to be dead.
Ever since one of the newer Studio updates, all the icons have turned blurry, and the instructions have removed all the separating part outlines, melding parts together. Anybody know any fixes?
>>11732244>>11732245that's gotta be 100% on-purposeLego did a few legit Overwatch setsso that sword is either a mold they worked on for more Overwatch sets, that never got made, but they had the mold so they might as well use it for something...or one of the designers is still an Overwatch fan (which might be how they pitched the IP in the first place) and knew they wanted to do swords, and snuck-in the Overwatch-looking design (it's from my dreamzz! hurhur says the designer)
whats the best way to get lego skeletons? i want a ton, don't care which variation
>>11732216I mean I guess it's a cool way to get stretchy luffy if you didn't get the one in the arlong park set.>>11732218What looks new? kid luffy and the gum gum fruit were in the party bar set.
>>11732273aliexpress?
>>11732214>>11732216I'm not a fan of Lego "cheating" by creating a new piece for something like this. obviously they need to make specific hair pieces, or hats, or even weapons for the minifigs, but something this big feels like... meh. I get that they use the new piece a lot, so it's worth-while, but it still seems like a cheat.also more LMAO that:-adult Luffy,-WEARING the hat-with non-stretchy arm torsoSTILL locked into the $140 ship set (or $330 bigger set) you can also get adult Luffy, wearing the hat on his head, with non-stretchy arms, by combo-ing the $55 and $80 sets, so minimum $135 for the freaking main character. Lego sucks and they know it
>>11732313>you can also get adult Luffy, wearing the hat on his head, with non-stretchy arms, by combo-ing the $55 and $80 sets, so minimum $135 for the freaking main character. Lego sucks and they know itwhoops my bad, I mis-remembered that, and it doesn't work. nevermind. main character only in the $140 set
>>11732297The fidget spinner parts
>>11732298He said lego
WE WON
>>11732344It’ll be shart brick. No sale.
>>11732344>finally do minifigs>after over 6 years into the themeWtf is wrong with Lego? It's like if they started doing star wars sets in 1999 WITHOUT minifigures and only started releasing star wars minifig sets in 2006.
>>11732344Apparently we are gerting a teaser later Today from Lego that will show the Mario minifig. I just don't understand why didn't they release them in the summer? It does make me believe the one rumour of Peach Castle 18+ set with minifigs that would be coming in august... it might be true...I also wonder if Lego Pokemon fucked their release schedule
>>11732344>after a 2000 yearsThe novelty is gone, should've done it from the beginning
>>11732344>>11732350Leakers just said the Mario minifigs WILL NOT BE part of smart brick range.So we are safe.
>>11732344>>11732367>>11732360Go away Frogboy, nobody likes you.
Keep on keeping on!
>>11732396What is this supposed to mean?
>>11732344I always assumed that Nintendo were the ones specifying that there couldn't be Mario Minifigs. They're always so autistic about Mario as a brand and make the weirdest fucking choices so I just thought Lego were just forced to not make minifig sets.
How far are you willing to drive to look for Lego in a garage sale? The only garage sale I’ve seen that advertises Lego is 40 minutes away, and doesn’t have any pics or description except “bulk Lego parts”. I don’t want to drive that far just to be disappointed by what they’re selling, or realize someone bought everything already.
>>11732344>WE WONonly if you can afford the $700 (?) price tagI wouldn't even be surprised if this was the whole level for $1000 considering the blue-balls frenzy the vacuum of the absence of Mario Minifig has created over the past several years, Lego is sure to max-profits especially since Pokemon blew up as it didtruly the best we can hope for is $200. no way is it going to be any less than that
oh finally
>>11732458Are these supposed to be similar to the Sonic sets?
>>11732458Where’s Pika
>>11732466Up your ass chris.
I just had a thought, when other themes get smartbricks and smart minifigures, can I mix them?Can I put my smart Lloyd in the Millennium Falcon or my smart Tom Nook on the Death Star? Or will Disney throw a shitfit and licensed themes can only react to themselves.>>11732458>Minfig Mario after 7 yearsI guarantee it's being locked behind a giant brickbuilt mushroom or Princess Peach's castle.
>>11732458>>11732465>similar to the Sonic sets?yeah probably, except hundreds of dollars more.like the Pokemon, and Star Trek, and One Piece, and Stranger Things...expect them to start out with "it's your only option" REBBOFANK* set(*Ridiculously Expensive Black Box Obviously For Adults Not Kids)
>>11732458Likely we will get Tostarena sets, with the new movie coming out. Will we get the Wooded Kingdom? On a sidenote, I would love DK Bananza sets.
>>11732496Or, and I could be going out on a limb here, they’re going to be hella affordable and cool like Minecraft, animal crossing, or I don’t know, Mario set already out?Mindbroken by Kenny Penders. No one’s is using your stupid acronym.
warrants a new thread>>11732503>>11732503>>11732503
>>11732500>No one’s is using your stupid acronym.good. I said before I only use it to relieve stress at my frustration with -expensive- Lego standards. I use an extra-dumb acronym because I think it's dumb.I'm teasing the expensive set to lower my expectations, but honestly I think it will wind up like Animal Crossing. kinda-pricey, they'd be better if each set included one-freaking-more minifig, but right on the edge of tolerable-enough to purchase. at least a couple of 'em.
>>11732507It’s good to temper one’s expectations especially in this hobby. I think you’re probably right… just on the edge of tolerable… Thing is I already have a ton of Mario legos. And that will temper by buying more than anything honestly.
>>11732504Why’re you like this?
>>11732504no it doesn’t
>>11732516pedophlelia mind virus
>>11732458>2027/lg/ will be dead by then :c>>11732396
>>11732035>>11732046Actually it's a problem if you're trying it buy $20 worth of pieces. I'm currently trying to get a 5 issue run of a comic series and the whole set is $150+$200 but each issue is about $13, so I'm figuring out different seller shipping rates (they are over charging).
>>11732313Isn't this a new color for this year too?
>>11732504fuck off, spammerthis thread is still perfectly usable for at least a week
>>11729440Fucking amazing
>>11732263Design your mocs in your head like everyone else who isn't fucking retarded
>>11732849He’s got aphantasia and probably brown hands.
>>11731349and at the same time they became quite a sellout
>>11732458Why does it look so cheap? Like barely any detailing on the front and the crappy shoes?
>>11732495The smart bricks seem like they would be agnostic, not that it really matters since they don't really make licensed sounds.

>>11729715Most adult themes fail because of being highly restricted in depicting things like contemporary weapons. Otherwise, I don't think LEGO would have any issue selling 80s action themes given everyone else was selling kid toys of 80s action movies.
>>11733156If they add too much detail to Mario his fig would look uncanny, but they could had done way better with those shoes.
