seems like the closing mechanism moves the trainers so they fit inside
>>11839911the trainers + pokemon should just be a CMF series. Also i am a big pokemon fan, who the fuck is the green guy?
>>11839917picnicker trainer classshould have been the youngster or lass if they really wanted a starter generic trainermy guess is they were hellbent on doing a female and the lass was "too sexual"
>>11839916>>11839911you are the worst poster on this board noncet.
>>11839920why not Leaf then?
>>11839925because they gotta dripfeed the most desirable characters into different sets for maximum profit
the grey spheres in the palms of its hands really throw me off
>we have to suffer yet another french earlythread because nobody does their job here
Imagine a pokemon cmf series where each fig comes with a molded pokemon. The scalping would reach insane levels
>>11839932>release a $30 set with ~300 pieces>add a 700 piece base and a shitty minifig for an additional $100Hell yeah Lego, hell yeah
>>11839911>Red>nuRed, evenCall me when they do my boy Ash Ketchum from Pallet Town
>>11839953>2004 version>NuDo uncs really?
>>11839916im surprised they gave the balls a unique mold when the could have just printed the design on the existing ball piece
>>11839932this is me consooming but Rayquaza looking so shit makes it weirdly endearingit’s like a little downs kid trying to by your friend
oh nonono
Clean it up.
>>11839916Looms sick. Ill take 5
>the shill has gone insane
Soon
>>11839961The pokemon theme is so fucking cursed. Fumble of the century
>>11839961They Literally made a set of Precious Leaf. Yuck.
>>11839968why do you assault kids?
>>11839961What's so wrong with this one? Doesnt look any better or worse than any other, or am I missing something. Could certainly have used a small Pokémon companion. This line as a whole is such a mess though.
>>11839978They got in between me and my Lego set at the toy aisle.
>>11839980>Doesnt look any better or worse than any other,Wrong
>>11839911shouldn't red and green have short legs since they are children
I wonder what set will Ash feature in>>11839968The amount of crying when the first set gets revealed and the first set names for the theme leak will be phenomenalImagine if they reveal the shenron set at sdcc
>>11839989To be fair the sprites are the same height
>>11839968You can't keep this up
>>11839991>I wonder what set will Ash feature inSounds groovy
>>11839993Not if irc is called.
>>11839989Is Leaf Green Red a child child? Always assumed he was like 13. The original Red is definitely a little kid.
>>11839968What does this post mean, are we really getting a db theme?
>>11840000Monkie Kid got his neck snapped by Goku so yeah.
>>11840000It means the frenchman is going to jail on CSAM charges.
>>11840002What, really? So its not a meme? Aee we gerring only one set or? I liked MK :(
>some pokemon figures! yay!>GIANT HUNK OF SHIT 2,000 PIECES
>>11840004I don't think French people get charged for that anymore after France became a majority muslim country.
Here's the better deal than pokeball>based on THE 90s franchise>ayy lmao>flukeman>mulder, scully>cancer man>bald guy with glasses>mulder office>ufo>$200Better deal than 3 minifigs and 2 pokemon for $300, take the x files pill
>>11840010French people have always been pedophiles perfectly fine by themselves. It is a time honored French tradition. Trust me, as a German, I know this.

>>11840012Idgaf about x files but I would rather get this set because it actually has good parts like the furniture, foliage and aliens.

>>11839999>>11839989They aren't overtly much shorter than the adults.
>>11840010The director of Jeepers Creepers escaped there after being convicted of diddling in the US, it’s public knowledge that our shill is the same sort as him in not just nationality but motive too.
>>11839988But what's actually worse? Maybe I'm just not observant but I'm not seeing anything so egregious that I'd say it's significantly or even noticeably worse.
>>11840023>>11840018fuck off frogcet you nonce.
Star Wars chads... its over
>>11840026The hat is way too blocky and tall/high, doesn't sit right on the head at all. PokeBall is also in the awful ass style of the blocky shartbrick pokemon sets instead of a reproduction of the PokeBall mold
>>11840030go away
Apparently we have dates for other reveals:>july 11 - midnight collection mayor manor>july 14 - spongebob>july 26 - all 4 doomsday sets + trailer online
>>11839996My nigga.
Spookychads this seems promising
Im.just going to buy 2x4 bricks and make rectangle houses... im so sick of AFOL shit.
She looks like just2good post transition
>>11840012Jose Chung alien!
>>11840051>eyelashes>regular height legs rather than midget ones>hip printYeah nah she couldn't be less Just2good coded if she tried
>>11839911why is this 400 dollar shit pile not two tiny play sets that a child could buy with his allowance. Pokemon is for babies what the fuck is this shit
>>11840071It's $300
mega cucks lost
>>11839923No that would be you crying like a fucking whiny incel bitch because somebody else actually contributes shit to discuss. Fuck dude the threads would actively last longer if retards like you just stopped bitching. Nearly 40 posts in the lasy thread were just retards whining about "leak spam." You know what I hate spam too so do us a favor and fuck off with the endless spam you post every fucking thread.
>>11839911why did animal crossing get playsets but pokemon didn't
>>11840014>GermanSo that's why you are an insufferable faggot that ruins everything.
>>11840082These are playsets
>>11839911This set is going to be extremely popular. I expect it to be a sort after collectors item when it goes out of print.
>>11840091Didn't ask.
>>11840091
>>11840091it’s crazy the set is $300 and these are the only pieces anyone actually cares about
>>11840092>Didn't askIt was never meant for you.
>>11839911This will truly be the most hyped kit of all time.
>>11839932the shitty gray mixel joints continues to throw me off whenever they attempt to throw them into a set that is not gray...
>>11840091Whose the girl in green next to Jeffrey Epstein?
>>11840091are these going to be the only minifig scale pokemon for the foreseeable future
I’m just happy for Sarah.Finally got her own set!
>>11840084That was my first post in the thread. Forgot your medication?
>>11839911Set fails out of the gate for not having the three original starters as minifigs. If these cocksuckers were smart they would have done all the OG in minifig scale and sold them as random polybags(boxes now I guess). I guess they have enough money already and in their infinite wisdom believe they have fully milked the IP.
>>11840091Pikachu, eevee and red are for sure getting reused in other sets, more oak isn't farfetched either. As for the picnicker, the least like likely to not be repeated/stay exclusive, nobody cares about
>>11840093would have been so cool if they did a series of sets that are just this. imagine different routes/gym scenes with an iconic trainer and different pokemon.
>>11840091>sort after
>>11840133Yeah yeah, shit happens. 'Sought after'.
trainer minifigs are gaygive me a bunch of molded mons so I can recreate my Pokopia town
>>11840091for scalpers mostly, not even average people have $300 to spend on a plastic toy with no electronics and white pieces that will inevitably yellow in the future
>>11840093Why is the backpack a print? Wtf?
>>11840051Kek I didn’t even see this post when I made this >>11840113Hivemind. Glad I’m not the only one who saw it.
>>11840140>Why is the backpack a print? Wtf?so they can print the straps on the front, and not have it be weird if there's no extra piece on his back that would need those straps
>>11840093this pic is a $20 setLego added pieces to force $300 pricemuh part-countmuh valuemuh it's worth the price for those p-piecesno.you should have been able to buy this part only, for $20MOC your own dang giant Pokeball for crying out loud
Lmao these Pokémon sets are horrible. Can they bring back the good Mario sets. I don't care about this other slop, and certainly won't care about whatever nuLegoMario bullshit they do with minif*gs.
>>11839932>>11839911Why does every set have to be a statue display piece now, there is zero playabilitywhy not just make an Oak's Lab set
>>11840159They'd easily turn this into a $160 set just from all the small bits.
>>11839956Retard.
>>11839916>>11839911>that will be 300 dollars, sweety :)No, i don't think it will.
Or you can buy these cool "legos" over here!https://www.amiami.com/eng/detail/?gcode=FIGURE-205036
>>11840176You are bold to think it's only gonna be $300.
>>11840051That's supposed to be female trainer?
>>11840089>>11840091Why was the pokemon lego line such a catastrophic failure, you guys?
No:>Red's house set>Oak's lab set>pokemart set>poke center set>viridian forest set>Pewter museum set>Cerulean bridge fight set>Mewtwo's cave set>SS Anne set>ghost tower set>burned manor set>elite four fight set>eight gyms sets>trainers with pokemon molds cmfsIt was that easy all along and they could have done this for all the future generations and have the line run for literally a decade. Instead, we got Squirtle riding a dune buggy...
>>11840182Lego has too many licenses and too little competition these days
>>11839961yellow big fig>wholesome>comforting>nostalgicfleshie big fig>you will be raped
We should've bullied lego "adults" harder, especially the Star Wars ones. Now it's too late.
>>11839988This terrible cash grab and sorry excuse for innovation is why people hate lego
>>11840159i can't display that set on my designated lego shelf
>>11840196Bully how? These "Lego Adults" are mostly made of rich bastards who can afford to by $300 sets on a regular basis. They could probably pay someone to beat any harassers up they they tried shit
>displayslop>no Ash/Gary or Red/Blue>no three starter pokemon>300 dollarsMoney saved again.
>>11840196True, but like all cancers they fester if left unattended.
>>11840051looks like Angus Young during St. Patrick's
>>11840177The Dragonar carrier is the only good thing coming from that pointless line.
>106 replies>33 images>virtually zero OCNever change retards.
I really like the new City tractor set, it's got big expansion potential with how they set up the front and back connections.
>>118401816th one from the regular trainers >>11840024
I'll probably get it. Seems decent.
>>11840278$300
>>11840051Pretty sure this is a hairpiece reuse of that derpy kid from stranger things which is why it looks so odd
>>11840047>monster maidhot
>>11840282Like I said, seems decent.
>>11839916>>11839911Ah yes, Reds legendary rival the generic picknicker npc.
>>11840303No it doesn't.Get some fucking taste, retard.
where is it?
>>11840091Why does Oak look like Epstein?
>>11840335Age of consent is like 10 in pokeland.
>>11840335>egg-shaped pokeball
>>11840091Hats with hair look so fucking ass brehs
>>11840283the worst Lego hair re-use is the Qi'ra from that Solo movie. she has a unique sci-fi twist where the right side is brushed forward and the left side is curled behind her ear. it's meant to be just-odd-enough-yet-usable for kids (heh) to emulate. oh! she's doing the Qi'ra hair! (similar to Leia buns from the first Star Wars) Lego made a new hair piece for itnow due to bangs-part of that hair piece, it's used for generic bangs hair, in like a hundred sets already. Lego should have just made another regular bangs hair, but they KEEP USING the space version with one side brushed forward and the other behind the ear. it's embarrassing at this point
>>11840348>Hats with hair look so fucking ass brehshats-with-hairwas a mistakethey look so good, that Lego needs to re-do ALL HATS to include hair now. they just look silly without it. especially in sets with both regular hats and now hats-with-hair. the ones without hat-hair look totally like bald people wearing hats now
>>11840363>they look so goodThey look so fucking ass breh
>>11840370>They look so fucking ass brehnope. they look amazingit makes ALL previous just-hats look ass instead(unless you're a bald person wearing a hat)it's similar to the "classic smiley" face vs the infinitely-better many-expressions they use now. if Lego started going back to one face for everybody (classic smiley!), it would look stupid at this point
>>11839911fuck lego for putting these in overpriced displayslop
>>11839961i'm tired, at this point lego is just mocking us. >you want a playset? how about 300-450 displayslop!>you want lego trainers? here is your huge buildable figure slop! >Ok fine, fine here you go, we put trainer figures and molded pokemon in another displayslop set! that will be another $300, thank you!
>>11840018>>75478 – Y-wing (OT, playscale) – $80 (Leia, X2 Pilots, Astromech and Concept Art Luke Starkiller)I hope the Leia won't be the same generic one that we have been getting lately. I already have one too many of that one.
>>11840051You are on to something..
>>11840187Yeah, i don't know what they are smoking at lego. This theme could be the ultimate money printer and rival lego star wars as a theme to stay for decades, but instead we get all this fucking slop
>>11840373They look like shit and don't fit with Lego's minifigure aesthetic. More detail =/= more betterer you fucking retarded troglodyte slop eater
>>11839929This. You legit have no idea how many Lego collectors are just minifig whores.
>>11840159kinda boring. Apart from a few iconic details, it's just a beige room with books and tables>inb4 HURRR BUT THAT'S WHAT OAK'S LAB IS SUPPOSED TO BESure, but it's not going to appeal to normies the same way as a giant, articulated Pokeball diorama. you genuinely do not fathom how disinterested in their own interests the average normie is.
>>11840390>>11840390>you fucking retarded troglodyte slop eaterwhoa calm downit's Lego's own fault, not mine for "liking it"this is actually BETTER for YOU since YOU can get (you already own) classic yellow smiley faces and hair-less hats that already exist. you have those already. lots of them. when YOU buy a new set, you can put those characters in it. swap out whatever fleshie for a yellow smiley. great for you!!I'm the one who complains that the Rayquaza character looks like ass because her hair doesn't match the anime. Lego has soured my expectations at this point. if YOU think a bald-head-hat on a classic smiley looks better, YOU already own that option! Lego doesn't NEED to put those in sets for you at this point.
>>11840400>not mine for "liking it"It is your fault. If people didn't buy and defend slop then they would stop making it.
>>11840348>>11840370>>11840390It's not even that much more detail. They fit the lego look, you're just angry because its different. Grow up.
>>11840406>If people didn't buy and defend slop then they would stop making it.you are technically correct. the best kind of correct.what I meant to say "not-only MY fault"if "nobody" like the brick-built Mario sets, they would have been silenced as quickly as the [smart brick] was, and we would have had minifig Marios for years now. but it's not up to me, or you. we are both at the mercy of "the rest of the population"YOU have the advantage since Yellow Smiley faces exist already. buy them all up like gold. when you have them all they will be worth more to you.
>>11840012I really like this. But $200 is too much for an office vignette with a microscale UFO. I ain't gonna pay modular prices for half a 16x16 building. Feels like getting ripped off. More than usual.
Legobros, i think i may be happening again...
Two 10x10 mushrooms and prebuilt Mega Blastoise!God damnit dude, why, now i'll never experience the magic of building it for myself.
>>11840413Why do you type like a faggot? Type normally
a green car
>>11840024Yeah the kids in the game always seemed like older kids after gold and silver.
>>11840434>no chrome pieces
>>11840091Lmao!!!!
what even is green and purple thing on the right? something about the jellyfish field? I can't make it out
Kill yourself.
>>11840438I don't get it who is that?
If you told me a year ago Pokemon is getting four Minifigures and one is Zinnia, a post game character exclusive to ORAS, I literally would not believe you.
Hey, we get a keychain Red. This means good things for the future...
>>11839961>lego made a trainer to scale with brick built pokemonBased
>>11840471He's going to have a Tony Soprano haircut when you take the hat off.
>lego monsters inc Finally>its brickbuilt characters>lego zootopia Finally>its brickbuilt charactersWhy are lego like this? You'd think they'd focus on the thing that makes them different from competition... you know... minifigs..
There's 1025 pokemon currently and more will be added every new gen which is like every 3-5 years. And their first thought was to make buildable oversized figures?
>>11840159You could easily make this yourself and probably way cheaper too.You do build your own MOC with Lego right? you do actually play with the toy right?
>>11840479I don’t think they’re planning to make sets for every single Pokémon.
>>11840094That just says more about so called lego "collectors", specifically that they don't actually like Lego, they just want minifigs, they could've been funko collectors but wanted to seem more acceptable.
mogs you
Why does Oak look like...
>>11840502Lego just got a big controversy going on just because their designers suck...
>>11840472>you know, Alakazam predicted all of this
>>11840502Red and Oak would have looked better with frowning faces.
>>11839911Wow this looks tremendously bad. Also, I’m a pokemon autist and even I couldn’t identify the third fig
>>11839923Shut up and fuck off>>11839916This looks awful. The actual “build,” Oak’s Lab, is like 100 pieces lol
>>11840031That face reminds me of the 2006 Bruce Wayne minifig head
>>11840477>figfaggotrylol, mousecuck
It’s wild for them to make a set that has this much wasted space for $300 all for it to do what a $15 Polly pocket has been pulling off for decadesThe Pokémon Lego curse continues
>>11840521Her name is Justin.
>>11840477the more Lego moves away from the minifig, the easier it will be for a competitor to topple the giant. good luck to them (the competition, not Lego)
>>11840477because disney adults are soulless just like all those wholesome disney movies you too celebrate, its what you deserve for worshipping the mouse
>>11840521>I’m a pokemon autist and even I couldn’t identify the third fighey, somebody at Lego is proud they came up with NPU re-color of the Stranger Things het-hair piece to make a specific random opponentclearly, that is worth the $300. it will be that random opponent figure that winds up being the most valuable thing in the set, as all the rest of the unique things about the set will be available in lesser-things later
>>11840559imagine the resale value of a Hex Maniac minifig
>>11840559Oh god, is it supposed to be a picnicker? The curly hair doesn’t fit at all
>>11839923Fuck offAlso what is the -cet suffix supposed to mean?
>>11840572
>>11840462just2good's boyfriend
>>11840600Lmao really? That's hilarious.
>>11840577Why not Blue? Are they insane?
>>11840604>>11839929
>>11840470I think just this and the mewtwo set for me and I'll still not 100% sure about the latter.
So this whole set is just Justin and his boyfriend?
>>11840502should have gone with tan hair
>>11840026you know things are bad at /lg/ when redshitters arent as fucking stupidhttps://www.reddit.com/r/Legoleak/comments/1upf4dj/pok%C3%A9mon_40868_upscaled_red_minifigure_via_lite/
>>11840452It’s jellyfish fields>comes with DoodlebobNeat
>>11840477>WhyBecause normalfag adults. (You) as in You the LEGO fan aren't the target audience for this. I have realized this early on. So I hope you can cope somehow. Sorry anon.
I literally have no grey bricks to finish the keep, unless I break down my clone base moc, but I don’t want to do that, I’ll probably make a run to B&M bulk bin, or slap a roof on it and call it a day, so I can start working on the village
>>11839961>>11840031I really despise that Fire Red is the defacto design Nintendo insists on for this character. But WHY is his hair molded with the cap. You cant even reverse it if you wanted to. Everything about this is bad
Okay anon, here me out.LEGO WarCraft>two factions>multiple races>many iconic characters, locations and buildings>potential for both play sets and display slop like weapon replicas, helmets and Brickheadz>subthemes for different eras>crossover with hearthstone Make it happen
>>11840656Lego is pretty hard on for ips that lost relevance 15 years ago.
>>11840026You don't get it anon. There HAS to be something wrong with every new set. Otherwise /lg/ could not complain.
>taps sign
>>11840659Just wait till BlizzCon in september. Apperntly there is a animated and live action series in the works. I also forgot to mention that WoW is still really popular in china. So if LEGO isn't stupid, they could suck them off.
>>11840668I think you’re forgetting one little problem anon.
>>11840674Haven't all the problematic OGs left? Only papa Metzen is there anymore. Wamen and Xey/Xers are in the majority now.
>>11840681Man I don’t know the last game I bought from them was probably a Diablo 2 lord of destruction battle pack for $20 at Walmart at 11:45PM circa 2007 because my mule got busted for duping items.
>>118401541. Who's going to take off Red's Back Pack2. How the fuck does a printed backpack not look more awkward?3. Then just don't print the fucking straps
>>11840656No, even just like make Castle with a fantasy twist.Lion knight humansOrc wolf packElvish forestmenUndead fright knightsBlack Falcon dwarves
>>11840685That's too hard :(
>>11840656>LEGO WarCrafttoo violentI'd like to see it though, and watch all the Classic Castle fans throw another fit how Lego will never do Castle again and we all get D&D MTG and WoW instead
>>11840685>1. Who's going to take off Red's Back Packif it comes off, it will>2. How the fuck does a printed backpack not look more awkward?yes, they knew it looks awkward, but decided it was the lesser of two evils>3. Then just don't print the fucking strapsthey needed those straps. the character did not look the same without them (I assume they gave it a try?)sometimes both options suck, and they pick one.

>>11840691Don't be that fucking retard. The obvious lesser of two evils was giving the figure a backpack. Don't go defending a dumb decision for useless brownie points. There are dozens if not hundreds of minifigures with backpacks that look fine without backpack straps.
>>11840710I like that waifigthe real solution would have been to simply include a backpack, leaving the figure the way it is (with an extra backpack printed on the back under the backpack piece)there are plenty of figures with back printing under things that you wouldn't see (I'm too lazy to look for an example with an actual backpack)
>>11840396Retard
>>11840196I don’t think this is Star Wars’ fault. I blame the mario license.
>>11840196>Says the lego adult.
>>11840094>300
no scene more iconic than when red sent out his eevee against the picnicker's pikachu while professor oak watched from his lab on the second floor
>>11840502Professery Oakstein
You can take the smart brick out but it’ll look even more retarded.
>>11840502>>11840766Alphoomers are so obsessed with Epstein, are you even old enough to be on this site? Why are you even interested in "unc" shit like Kanto Pokemon?
>>11840654Bitch stop complaining, there's a red jacket you can use from PaB that would create the same aesthetic.
>>11840094it'd be funny if a year from now they anounce a junior pokemon set with the same figures and a little poke lab made out of like 80 bricks
>>11840643This is looking sexier and sexier every update Thank you for MOC posting Fren
>>11840396>This thing that everyone is asking for is CLEARLY less marketable than [expensive retarded shit nobody asked for]Maybe stop posting if you are just going to be retarded
>>11840689Not true, there were two instances in which we were close to a Warcraft theme>back around 2008 I think, Blizzard came to Lego to pitch them a Warcraft theme but they weren't happy with the look of the minifig prototypes because of lack of special molds so Mega won>after Overwatch theme launched both blizzard and lego discussed about doing a Warcraft theme but it fell apart after inside dramaAnyway now we probably won't get it because for the next 3 years atleast we will have a full DnD theme starting march 2027 sothe entire castle medieval corner will have sets
Absolute state
>>11840483> you do actually play with the toy right?What do you take me for, a 9 year old or an autistic 35 year old?
>>11840779Some lucky designer needs to be homeless and forced to sleep in the sewers of Denmark for this.
>>11840654I'm actually surprised they didn't just recolor this piece
>BL seller was out of stock of the 8 pieces that were the whole reason I started the $50 order forI'm gonna lose it.
>>11840466She HAS to be someone's waifu. She doesn't even catch Rayquaza in the game, it's just a stretch of an excuse to get her a minifigure.
>>11839920Why is the green so far off?
>>11840654I don't mind the Fire Red design but I agree cause he just doesn't have 90s kid vibes, so it doesn't fully feel like Gen 1 when they use him, it just kind of feels like Gen 3.
Anons, do you still feel joy when walking down a lego aisle?
Even normies agree
>>11840023Until they actually have an official image from the Lego website I'm not believing that they will do ANY of the DragonBall franchise.
>>11841080And yet there are morons in this very thread that INSIST that a small affordable set would never ever sell and that the only way to get kids to buy it is by making it hundreds of dollars and making it a display piece instead of a play set
>>11841082The set pics should leak in either september or october at the latest. We should also have a set list by september. Will you eat a box of a set if its real?
>>11839932Lego FUG sold ou btw
>rayquaza already on backorderZinnia chads win
>all these people complaining about the new pokemon set>not just picking up their own bricks and making their own figsYou have almost 50 years of minifig parts to choose from, free to mix and match arms, legs, heads, accessories or even make your own decals with Microsoft paint. You get a red hat, the puffy jacket from >>11840790 and you could easily make a better -and vastly cheaper- red than they're offering. There is no need to subject yourself to these predatory TLG practices of locking figs in with high dollar dust collectors. Hell, just get the keychain and remove the metal hook if you really want a trainer for your shelf!>Pic related, built the cast of Slayers from random parts, only had to order Lina's torso
>>11841099Fuck, fixed the orientation
>>11841083You would need to move ten times more of the small set to make the same amount of money. But there are more fix costs if you have more sets. Also, this is a "classic" Pokemon set. So it appeals more to adult fans. Let's say 60% would buy the expensive set. Which is still more money than if 100% would buy the small version. Now you would say But kids would also buy it, generating more revenue. Kids can get the sets for kids which are different sets. If they bought the small Oak lab set, their budget wouldn't be used to buy the kids sets. So, overall, Lego makes more money if they make it an expensive set.
>>11841101That's the best Torso you could come up for Goury?
Guys, we will get the pokemon molds in cheap sets in 2027, the keychain is a signFeminder that lego doesn't truly keep minifigs as exclusives, like Rex with Venator case
>>11841118Oh I agree this Gourry is the weakest fig of the bunch, but this was good enough with what I had on hand. I would need black pauldrons and upper chest armor that could fit with the hair, I'd prefer classic blue but with this color I can emulate the black leg armor. I'm honestly just pleased I was able to turn some really shitty CFM parts into something useful.
wtf is rayquaza
>>11841093My boy
>>11839961it insists on itself
>>11840089why the FUCK does Squirtle need a car with water guns?
>>11841140>Guns are fun>Obviously a training course Can't bro just have some fun without it being a whole thing?
It doesn't look bad in this pose
>>11841140To get to his cheeseburgers faster. Duh.
>>11841145I'm sure shenron will look better at $200, r-right?
>>11841145Unironically a good licensed set, the seethe is highly performative
>>11841074modeled after a different version. this >>11840024 is the one(sixth from the Regular Trainers)
>>11840559Bug catcher would have been so easy to make, recolor the one piece straw hat and give him a bug net. Youngster (Joey) would have been easy too.
>>11841166>Unironically a good licensed setYou got jokes.
>>11841145
>>11841116You seem to be forgetting a key detail my friend. Without any sort of classic playsets for the kids then those children will not have any sort of connection with lego and when the adult lego fans die out there will be no new adult fans left to purchase any set whatsoever.
>>11841220King.
>>11839911Would make a cool Death Star with throne room and Luke/Vader duel inside.
>>118411883 males no females is no longer allowed
>>11841221There are tons of shart play sets for the kids. I heard 4 year-olds love those sounds.
>>11839961>pokeball isn't to scale with the minifig pokeballJust using the 3x3 quarters for the hat would have done the trick.
>get them now before they fly off the shelf!
>>11841145the lower jaw is too big but everything else looks good
>>11841243>Series 2 of F1 coming in May 2027Why is it happening?
my genuine theory for the lack of pokemon playsets is nintendo doesn’t want the bad press from a toddler choking to death on a molded pikachu
>>11841246You act like they could crank out 12 random generic pirates or 12 ransoms generic castle guys or hell I don’t know a space series 2 or D&D series 2 and they’d sell out before the F1 series 1!
>>11841249Is there any actual reason provided by tlg as to why they don't just do a dedicated castle or pirate theme line of sets? Hell is there any reason provided why they don't do a dedicated pirate or castle themed CMF line?
I don't like Legos anymore
>>11841057Lego should always recycle like this, the less exclusive elements the better, but they buried themselves far too in the price-gouging for those values to actually stand out
>>11841276Don’t think they’ve explicitly stated it, but it’s probably so they don’t step on the toes of their licensed IPs.Castle theme? Buy the Harry Potter/LotR sets.Pirates theme? Buy the One Piece sets.Space theme? Buy the Star Wars sets.
>>11841277Same
>>11841101Nice dude, what's the chest piece for Lina?
that will be $230 + tax + tip for your unplayable dust collector
>>11841339Um, only the best is good enoughbros?What the fuck is this?
>>11841339why are they rolling around their shelf display piece?
>>11841340This is Lego quality in the Adults Welcome era.
>>11841339I hate technic so fucking much.
>>11841243>>11841246Lego could probably sell these exclusively at F1 events in the swag booths, and sell 'em out.it's a shame they use-up a scheduled spot that would have been taken up by another different CMF series. the Spider-Mans and Animal Costumes were terrible, but at least they were better than this F1 thing...
>>11841337https://www.brickowl.com/catalog/lego-red-torso-for-lion-dance-3814-76382
>>11841070Sorry, the 8 poop pieces will be back in stock soon.
Just ordered a 3D printer brosI'm going to print an articulated classic dragon.
>>11839911they really should have used the mid-sized legs from harry potter on the kid trainers
>>11841427Which type of filament are you planning on using(I'm humoring this anon who probably didn't actually order a 3d printer)
$130
>>11841145it looks fucking dogshit
>>11841446kind of cool but I hate the nu non chromed astronauts
/ourtransgirl/ has spoken.
>>11841220FUG
>>11841157Probably. I imagine itll use a similar body. The head and hands is the main issue for the Pokemon and Shenron has easier hands and an easier head to do in brick build Lego form only real issue will be the hair I imagine. I hope we get his balls printed.
>>11841086If they do actually come out with a DragonBall related theme I may likely buy either the Goku or Vegeta minifigs on Ebay, but I'm not shelling out for an entire set.
>>11841455she should be happy they made a figure that's the spitting image of her >>11840051
Should have given us a Lass, would have been infinitely more popular than a Picnicker, but apparently skirts on girls are illegal now or some shit.
>>11841503nah they just wanted to claim NPU on the re-color of the Dustin hair piece (even if it doesn't match the Picknicker, really) and give [somebody] a reason to get the set (OH! dat green hat/hair piece!!)they should have used Goonies bad guy Mama hairpiece re-colored with red hair and made a Team Rocket girl instead
>>11841511wouldnt work for the rocket to have a pikachu. both the lass and picnicker are pikachu users
>>11841521>wouldnt work for the rocket to have a pikachu. both the lass and picnicker are pikachu usersI applaud your knowledge of Pokemon lore
>>11841116Retard.
>>11841345I have no idea who buys these and seeing that is depressing. But these awful collections of beams and pins with barely working steering that falls off are just shit sets wearing the technic brand to me. It does way better and cooler shit, just not the gay race/sports cars.
>>11839911Holy shit that little Eevee and Pikachu are going to be so expensive on resale
>>11839911Does anyone know if I can use AI or something to see how to use leftover bricks?I did the windmill for this set (pic rel) and I have a ton of leftover pieces.
>>11841569use studio if you absolutely refuse to interact with the bricks physically in real life (why not). you can import a set to access the exact elements in the set, and then cross reference it against the leftover brick pile. I moc a lot of sets out this way before committing to destroying and rebuilding.
I'm looking for a cabinet or display case for a Fort Legoredo set I have. How wide is the set?
>>11841566there's no way they wont end up reusing unique molds of two of the most popular pokemon. its a merely temporary scarcity to push people into shelling out $300
>>11841573It’s really just all the leftover pieces.What is studio? I’m new to this
I’ve not had a good month scavenging wise and these are not even genuine but just want you guys to know I’m still out there. Even in this heat
>>11841569cant you just build with the legos?you know build without instructions
>>11841608Fag
>>11841605>the hero /lg/ deserves
>>11841605 You were still dumpster diving at 40 C?
>>11841626He ain’t no pussy.
>>11839917Why would they sell you something for $15 dollars when you'll buy it for $250 (as long as they trick you buy including an extra pile of plastic you don't want).
>>11841665Lol I'm sorry make that $300. This was predictable by the way, it should not have been mysterious to anyone why they didn't include minifigs with the earlier sets. "You are the trainer" was just a cover, they know you'll buy a $300 set just for the figs and they sure as shit aren't going to waste that by putting figures in a set with actual value otherwise.
>>11841569>How to use extra bricks?Jesus fucking Christ!!!>>11841576If you have the set, just measure it your self you fuckin moron! Or better yet, Instead of being a display fag, expand on the set and build a world around it.God damn you moclets are the worst!!
>>11841116you tellin me kids wouldn't see >zomg pokemon!!!!and not buy it?
>>11841083>the only way to get kids to buy it is by making it hundreds of dollars>>11841725>>11841665>Why would they sell you something for $15 dollars when you'll buy it for $300we've been over this math before:there's roughly 1000 The Lego Store locationsif they sell only ONE $1000 Death Star at each store, that's a million dollars. there's clearly 1 idiot per store willing to be that person, who has $1000 to pay for a Lego set.'member the pre-oder limits on the $650 Pokemon set? and we calculated Lego made like 500 million based off of those numbers? (I'm too lazy to look up those specific numbers)expensive sets are not going anywhere as long as there are a few rich people to support that, and there ARE
>>11841761Those are gross profits not net. There are dozens of factors and costs that absolutely fuck those calculated profit margins. Just consider these factors that actively make it harder to profit off a larger set.>cost of the thousands of parts included>cost of packaging sets so massive>cost of shipping sets so massive>cost of designing and printing instructions so massive they have forewards>the cost of special molding machines that will only ever be use for a handful of sets at most and never used again>Licensing>The loss of sales if produced numbers don't meet demand>loss of profit if demand is not as high as projectedWhen you account for all those factors I truly wonder just how much more profitable these larger sets really are. Gross revenue isn't telling the whole story.
>>11841608I meant to get ideas. I’m a busy guy and I like having a plan
I simply do not care about pokemon.
>>11841769while I do agree with you that using ballpark-rounded numbers is an unfair way to argue, most of those factors you listed work in favor of once vs many. for 1 set at $1000 vs 10 sets at $100, for exampleI also have no way to calculate how much it "costs" Lego to develop a set. (including the factory real-estate costs and the HR person, the TV ads?... ALL the factors!)but you have to imagine Lego knows those numbers. and companies typically work on double-profit margins. so it's safe to assume if Walmart sells the set for $100, they bought it from Lego for $50. and Lego sold it to Walmart for $50, because it cost them $25. those are minimum expectations, it's possible Lego gets a much higher margin, so that $100 set (at Walmart) only cost Lego $10 to make, with ALL the factors.again, that's just a guess.
new thread?
>>11841725Retard
>>11841780I'm a huge pokemon fan and I have zero intention of buying any Lego pokemon set
why was animal crossing the only normal nintendo licensed theme
