I feel like some of those ninjago city modulars were better city of canals than whatever this is
Clean it up.
>>11922324Wouldn't even pay $250 for this
>>11922324watch it be a facade open in the back
Anyone else refraining from rushing out and buying the Super Mario sets on day 1? I'm worried about cracks and I doubt that Yoshi's going to be gatekept behind that single, ugly, overpriced Mario's house set so the same goes for the other characters. I ain't spending $100 just to get Peach.
>>11922382out of everything you could complain about I don't a $40 set with a goomba, yoshi and mario should be itbe thankful they are not locked inside a $250 pokeball
>>11922382As an adult I have zero interest in the iconography of the mario franchise
>>11922384Easy, because it's a cheap looking and overly simple house design that doesn't resemble any depictions of Mario's actual house and that same Goomba is already easily available in the pipe set which is the cheaper option if you're fine with not getting Yoshi anytime soon or the more expensive kart set which at least includes Bowser, Toad, and Cow as well as their respective karts. When comparing this set to those two, it's the worst in terms of bang for your buck. I would have rather gotten a Yoshi's food truck to further go with the Mario Kart theme.
I'm looking for scans of those leaflets that came in old sets showcasing other sets that left kids salivating for more, some even had those fancy promo dioramas. Is there some kind of online repository for those?
>>11922404people who have lost their inner child while growing up are walking corpses.
>>11922404That's a little sad but I get it.
>>11922497Bitch im on the lego general talking about legos, my inner child is very much alive. Im even very nostalgic for super mario world, mario 64, kart 64 and party 1 to 3 but at the end of the day there is nothing engaging, cool or interesting about the mario universe. I still like (some) Zelda, I still like (some) Pokemon but Mario is just a big clusterfuck of nothing. Go watch the Mario Movie and spend thousands on amiibos you nintoddler
animechads won
Avatar the last airbender sets when?
>>11922384Why not give Mario those potter shorter legs that still hinge? Did they seriously made Mario and Luigi the same height?
>>11922614But then Mario would be the same height as Toad?I still bugs the shit out of me that they didn't fully color his feet brown. They didn't pull that shit with Sonic so why cut corners here? I'm also getting used to Yoshi but part of me still thinks he could have been better. Either remove the removable shell play feature so that he'd be less stocky or give him moveable legs that are split apart from each other.
>>11922515If "manchildren" had it their way, we'd be seeing sets on>Yoshi's (both the restaurant and food truck)>Robo-DK>Either MK64 Rainbow Road (Remake) train or Calamari Desert train>Thousand Year Door>Glitzville>Comet Observatory>Peach's airplane>Koopa Clown Car>Bowser's Airship>The Odyssey ship>Practically any and every kart from MKDD and MKDS in polybagsI'm totally missing stuff but all this came to me at the top of my head. No one's saying that Mario has FromSoft levels of lore and dark themes but it's had a ton of cool shit over the years that would make for great sets.
>>11922622>But then Mario would be the same height as Toad?No, these legs are still taller than the classic small ones toad uses
>>11922515Sonicfag still mad about losing the console war?
>>11922345This post brings back memories of Jang having a meltdown about the toilet flushing turds into the stream
>>11922324Not to be racist but who is even the target audience for this? It feels like the kind of set that was only made for LAN members to talk about the "sick building techniques" and "awesome parts usage" and never be seen or discussed again after the review drops. Like what kind of person meets all these criteria:>A huge fan of Venice specifically (since most actual Italians and Italiophiles despise that shithole)>Invested enough in Lego to consider what is essentially a non-modular modular build at minifigure scale of a fictional idealized setting rather than an architect scale model of an actual place they saw or visited there>Has $550 they are willing to burn on this highly specific interestMaybe someone who is already really into modulars with a whole city with plenty more money to spare and a desire to make a vacation spot adjacent to their city? This wouldn't really fit into an existing modular city since the building design is so different.
This is probably one of the worst designed official sets ever. All the angled plates and loose connections remind me of that lego gore Minivan.
>>11922865Maybe female adult buyers? I'm not sure how large that audience is though. Venice is a somewhat romantic and picturesque location in their minds.
>>11922865It also looks more like a BDP set. The gondola looks really half-assed.
So what do we think?
>>11922943no
Ideas rejected my Halloween challenge entry and I have no idea what their problem is. Thanks.
>>11922977We don't care. Thanks.
>>11922977post it here
>>11922384It's a garbage set. The slide makes no sense. And it looks like a duplo
>>11923040cute
>>11923040I hate AI shitters
>>11922384>be thankful they are not locked inside a $250 pokeballI just bought the £5 red keyring, I can't decide if I should actually use it as a keyring or just take the screw out.
>>11922515>there is nothing engaging, cool or interesting about the mario universeThat's a really good point, I could tell you my favourites from Pokemon, AC and Zelda, but Mario is just so bland that I honestly struggle to care about it outside of playing it.
should rayquaza have gotten a molded head instead of brick built? it's not beyond belief that it could've happened considering they do much larger full molded pieces for much less popular IPs. I just can't decide if I like it better this way or not
>>11923166ai sloppers deserve the rope
>>11923084Try and have original thoughts.
>>11923171>THAT'S AI!!!!is this the new thing that makes midwits feel smart for pointing out? of course it's AI you dumb nigger. believe it or not I don't have my own ABS plastic injection molding facility where I can create and apply my own custom mold to a real set
>>11923166The problem is the arms, not the head
>tfw master-builder fatigue
>>11923176You're responding to a comment that no one made. He wasn't pointing out that your picture is AI, he was saying that you deserve to die for posting it.
I love these little niggas like you wouldn’t believe
>>11923209They probably asked AI to write their reply
>>11923216Great, simple build and nice parts packs. Blind box aside, I look forward to whatever the next series is.
>>11923277>Blind box asideI had just scanned them to get the 2 I wanted anyway.
>>11923198I feel so bad for this guy. Every day you gotta come in to some soul-crushing job only to have a disney-adult who makes more than you putting blocks together, mock your balding head and make your workspace a mess.
>>11923209And naturally throwing a melty over an AI image is a very sane and normal thing to do.
I miss when lego was still lego
>>11923334same
>>11923216A little bit expensive.
Today I got to build this model of the Chesapeake & Ohio 490 in front of the real one in Baltimore!

>>11923372Glad for him>>11923446Any day now based on how SE whores out their IPs. I'm kind of amazed they haven't already announced KHslop lego.

>>11923692>noses
>>11923701>>11923703seek help
>>11923722Dont need help when justice (in big fig form) is needed for the innocent.
>>11923564I agree, very nice. But thats the movie one. And looks more like a gorilla.
>>11922865>who is even the target audience for this?we've been over this math before.if the set is several hundreds of dollars, Lego really only needs to sell a few of them to make it worthwhile. for every The Lego Store (1000-ish), they need to sell like 4 of them, maybe less, to cover the entire process of producing the set in large-enough amountsI wonder if Lego has a giant warehouse FULL of over-runs of these massive sets. I know some of them are "discontinued" which means... heh! they DID sell out of the 10,000 they ran through the factory! good for them!just to highlight the kindergarten math, 10,000 sets at $500 each would make Lego 5 million dollars. between plastic material costs, the guys designing the sets, printing the box, shipping them to the stores... etc... that's a LOT less than 5 million dollars. not even close.
>$550 for this
>>11923173no u
are they making candy or glass? sorry I dont know much about shitalian culture

WHy to make beatuiful sets for retarded ADULT rich cuckservative morons who spend bullcrap of money on such stuff.Just make around 200-300 euro sets to make it "pricey" but not "meh it's too much".Fuck this.This set is an epitome of a boner killerSure it's cool but why the fuck would i spend half of 1000 euros on a fucking KLOCKI toy...
>>11922637I would love those setsToo bad it seems like we will only get Mario Kart and New Super Mario Bros related generic sets
Lego peaked here
i'm tired..lego doesn't want me as a customer anymore and i yield after 20 years. i just can't take this 18+ black box slop anymore, their who?/what? themes while people begged decades for other themes never to see the light or just end up as one big doom box display slop or their incompetence when it comes to regular sets for a theme (yeah, this theme has run for years, but the figure or set that should have been in the first wave will release 100 years after your death. i..i'm just drained. my fatigue has reached it's fatigue limit. bye lego.
>>11923996just moc your own stuff breh, the options are limitless
I kinda of hate Brickcraft. His MOCs/City are quantity-slop. Yeah if you have a literally unlimited budget and time you can make really big displays out of lego, no shit. They aren't interesting as art / architecture / from a design pov.

They actually sent me a new one.
>>11923334>>11923354Based Vidiyo enjoyers!
>>11924434good.make Lego accountable for the cheap (quality) plastic that is not-cheap (price)Lego took a hit with the Gingy-Patrick replacement scandal, I hope somebody got yelled-at and they switch back to the better plastic (b-but it saves us like... $2000 per year!)
>>11924474Will they replace the little mech ball joint pieces? I never touch them, and they are all cracked. It's kinda bs
>>11923849Oh fuck! I need that piece. Get Wyldstyle doing this into Unikitty's mouth!
>>11924461>Based Vidiyo enjoyers!the only thing "wrong" with Vidiyo was the pricesliterally double-priced compared to other Lego sets on the shelves. insane.(and maybe it could be argued that it was released during peak "WOKE" era so you had guy-girls dancing on the box art in max-cringe-pandering)but the figures were amazing and the sets were cool, too. I would have really liked to have seen them do several waves of this but it was so DOA they actually yoinked the 2nd series of boxes from wide-release it was sad
>>11922613Your wish is granted.>it's based on the Netflix show and its designs
>>11924399>>11924230If only they came in dark tan or sand red. The indented eyes is the key to helping it look old lego as seen here, it’s a bit of a complicated thing but you can design around it
what's the most common pinkish/purplish lego color?

>>11924743>preppy guy>pink trousers>clear champagne glassVery Paradiso codedI agree the "giant food item on the roof" trope is lame
>>11924763Paradisa is the hubris of man's attempt to construct a restored Paradise on Earth. They built the walled garden within the chaos of Lego City, yet they were not God-fearing and they filled it with debauchery and sin. As foretold, picrel will incur God's wrath and the garden shall be smitten.

Like...i want to buy a harry potter castle part with Basilisk but it's fucking 250euros on Lego.com but i bought it for just 160 euros on Amazon during sale.buying stuff from lego fucking sucksgift with purchase suck ass

>>11925053and that's not shampagne...that's wine.You drink a glass of wine after pizza. You can see bunches of grapes on that pizzeria build
>>11925052>gift with purchase suck assit's the ultimate slap-in-the-face when you finally saved up enough to get The Enterprise-D but now you no longer get the free shuttlecraft with Ro Laren. rage! RAGE!!!! what's even the point of getting it now that you don't get the bonus Trek set?!! AAARRGGHH!!! there's no other way to get that Ro Laren Shuttle!! (non-complicated, non-expensive-now way, that is)

>>11923839Actually used that in a space set. Set it on a white dish to look like one of the battery packs exploded.
>>11925021Jang's time has come and gone. His ego got too big and it is as much about his as it is about the sets he covers. Even then his set reviews are as predictable as if Ai made it. I haven't watched one of his videos in a while, but he always closes with how the set would be so much better if it was $10 or $15 cheaper. You could probably make a drinking game out of every point he repeats in each review.
>>11925129>but he always closes with how the set would be so much better if it was $10 or $15 cheaper.Lego must LOVE these comments.every Lego review, ever:-it's great! super great! this part is great! this thing is great! (etc...)-but the price is awful. too much! wait for sale if you can.all Lego wants is the "Great" part they care not if people can actually afford it
jang loves the PSX
>>11925052Everytime I see a GWP I get excited to buy it and the I realize it's not a tiny set like: >>11925068>>11925070Are there still cool/cozy small sets like this in city or any other theme? Maybe I'm just unaware.
>Juan Piss is so good guiz!
*farts on nuLego*
>>11925187let me cry about Lego OP once more.that's the clear-est face-slap set where Lego blatantly held back on including Luffy-wearing-hat just because they "expected" people to have $140 for the ship. (you need to spend dat $140! you can't possibly be that poor!??) despite the fact that it's young Luffy and you still kinda needed to get $55 Buggy set to get grown up Luffy (who should have had wearing-hat piece in Buggy set, too, by the way)Shanks has all three options. hair, hat-w-hair, or just-hat. why not do the same with Luffy?!!!!!!! AAAARRRRGGGHHHH he's the main freaking character!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
>>11925208What the fuck are you even ranting about?
>>11925217Lego locked "Luffy-Wearing-Hat" into only the most expensive setshe's the main character of the show. they make many references, all the time, throughout the series, about how important his straw hat is to him. the group is literally named "The Straw Hat Pirates"but Lego Luffy wearing his hat? $140 minimum.it's one tiny little piece. there's no need for Lego to be stingy and not include it, yet... they want dat $140 of yours to get it. hey if you want to buy the $360 set, it's in that one, too.

>>11925208>>11925221you already told this 500 times, nobody gives a fuck about lego one piece based on the GAY netflix series instead of the OG anime. there are bigger things to worry about when it comes to the shitification of lego sets and themes than your strawhat worn by that brown faggot trying to look smug on the lego boxes, who doesn't even look like luffy at all!

>>11925337t. brown faggot who loves juan piss
>>11925221You can get the stupid piece in cheaper sets you massive tard. Maybe look up more than one set before going on a stupid tirade.
>>11925052When the forestman GWP came out I didn't really want anything from the site so I just bought the blacksmith to scalp later since it was retiring soon. I ended up selling it for a small profit and more importantly I got the forestmen for free.
>>11925398This one was on clearance too.
>>11925412all the one piece slop is on clearance. shops need space for a theme that actually flies of the shelves: DBZ
>>11925398- that set is $70. includes Luffy with stretch-arms- Luffy (not "wearing" hat) in "regular" outfit with normal arms in $55 Buggy set- main character Luffy-wearing-hat down from $140 to $125Lego knows what they are doing.and it's scummy
>>11925464Why is it scummy? Why are you exclusively interested in the minifigs? Shouldn't the set be worth something to you, as a biIIiIIiIiG oNe pIeCe FaN?
>>11923367Hopefully they'll get discounted by the end of this year or beginning of next year.>>11924388Haven't you heard, after the crap timmy and tommy set the line is dead, replaced by minifig mario sets and smartbrick pokemon.

Captain America is in the $55 set, but if you want his Shield you have to buy the $140 set.why did Lego choose to do this with One Piece? the giant castle where the doctor lady lives, doctor lady included in a different set. random wanted posters? when those posters are also important parts of the show??? it's like they completely expect all fans to have bought all sets. if you did, the theme is 100% awesome. but again, Lego LOVES those kinds of statements. buy it all! it's crazy amazing if you have the money to buy all the sets! Mihawk! Miss All Sunday!!!! coooooool!

>>11925719>>Doesn't love the series enough to want the character's flagshit.right now I'm poor. like super poor. sucks for me, and I'm keenly aware of it. all the time. I'm not going to describe the situation and how I cannot earn money. don't judge me on my poor-ness, one day it might be you.can I just get a cheap set with the main character?? nope. I've come to peace with that. Lego doesn't care about my poor ass. they'd rather milk money from the rich people. I can't blame them.but damn I wish they'd make a polybag with Luffy (regular outfit and wearing-his-hat). or like one Star Trek red shirt guy. they could do it. easily.

It's interesting though, these will be differently scaled than everything that's been released so far, so I'd guess that these will be their own thing. The play scale, the minifigure scale, and these buildable figures. Curious how they'll look, if they're decent I might be interested. And they'll be able to sell these everywhere, unlike the smart play sets.

>no minifigure since 2008>no polybag >no bat-adjacent setWhat's lego problem?
Are they bringing back a castle theme yet?
>>11926004probably not while hp is still doing the big fuckoff castle
>>11926004Not as it's own theme but sometimes they do Creator/Ideas. I bought a kickass pirate ship on my birthday.
>>11926008I've been considering getting some smaller HP sets for medieval type props but I don't like the ugly ass puke green color they make everything.
>>11926010you mean the tan? or the roof colour
>>11922943>X-Mansion>In NYC>No Avengers MansionThis is indeed a gay Earth.
>>11926013Its clear that set exists to tell a Galactus minifigure for $100 rather than make much of an actual coherent set.
>>11926012I guess it's more of a silvery grey but yea the roof/wall color combo doesn't look good to me.
>>11926013>Avengers MansionI'm not a Marvel fan but I thought they lived in a tower?
>>11926017They do and it’s clearly labeled on the box. >>11926013He’s just trying to bait. He’s used to baitin’.
>>11926016fair enoughi think the green roof they had for a while looked alright thoughdespite being licenseshit, i can't bring myself to treat hp like i do star wars or whatever flavour of the year theme lego is chasing maybe it's because most of them are structures and have some small sliver of whismy still in them that all the other slop themes have lostalthough it is far less than it used to be even 5 years ago
>>11926017in the comics they live in a mansion, but in the MCU its a tower
>>11925833>when these were first leaked every comment was about scalpersEveryone now just associates pokemon with scalpers cause of the retards scalping the tcg. As far as I know no-one is scalping the lego sets so these should probably be fine.Also I imagine they will probably be the same scale as the smartshit ones as the jiggleypuff set is only $14.99 and there's several 2 pokemon sets for $20.
>>11925968Is smartbrick available worldwide yet? They might be waiting to see how well the global release and wave 2 sets do before canning it.
>>11925208>anchor baby
>>11925279>burgerfried chicken
>>11926017The avengers also had a mansion. Stan Lee and Kirby were pretty lazy. Also the avengers mansion actually was in new york city, as opposed to the x-men one which is in upstate NY.
>>11926003Might offend pajeets, because it looks like a turd mocking them.
>>11925823Art is pain!
>>11926217
>>11926217>>11926222it sucks that Nexo Knights kinda tankedI would have liked to have seen it go a few more rounds, I liked the villains they were neat lookingI think Lego could try Laser Castles again, less-bright colors. you can't take this guy seriously. closer to space than castle (basically rip-off what Masters of the Universe did with lasers/swords mix)
>>11926230Any series that isnt an IP or Ninjago has only 3 years. Thats the normal lifecycle.Nexo Knights were kinda bogged. Chima fans hated that their series was replaced. Ninjago fans had their Ninjago. It was kinda sure to fail.The build in Chima and Nexo Knights were really great and it feels like alot they learned was later made for Ninjago.

>>11926305Wow that is a nice Instagram screenshot and a bunch of numbers thank you French faggot.
>>11926305text leeeeaaaaaks are the worstespecially just set numbers.booooooooo(it's silly to put it in a little graphic, too!)the Smart Brick gets worse and worse. I thought the Pokemon thing could be better than Star Wars use of it, but every time I walk past the display in the Target and hear Charizard's deep-voiced "BBBBBLLLAAARRRRGGGHHHH!" I literally laugh out loud it's so embarrassing I can't wait to see how Ninjago fails it
>>11926230>I liked the villains they were neat lookingthe grey rock ones were dull, but then they did techno vampires, which had potential but then the theme got cut
>>11926004castle, pirates and space themes are dead forever.
>>11926441don't forget western and adventurers
>>11926487western and adventurers were a flash in the pan compared to space, castle, and pirates
>>11926441>>11926487And Bionicle! And Aquazone as anything more than mildly fanciful submarines, most likely.
I’m just happy about fright night soft reboot.
What's a theme you consider to have a top tier concept but bottom tier sets? For me it's Fright Knights, coolest castle theme conceptually ruined by an awful line of sets.
>>11926547timecruisers, duh
>>11926594i second timecruisers, actually. that line could have been so cool, but the builds are spastic
>>11926547The human half of Life on Mars was always deeply underwhelming to me. Robo-Force was also probably a little underbaked. It does have some cool stuff regardless, but the Spyrius giga robot executes better on the proto-Exo-Force retro robot thing even so.>>11926594>>11926603Spastic was the point, you guys got no sense of whimsey.
>>11926594>>11926603I genuinely hate Timecruisers. They tried way too hard to be lolrandom.
>>11926441>piratesum...y'know, all Lego has to do is release a few Minifigs per year of anything. like when they did the gumball machine with a couple of new Space Guy colors.build your own Space sets.or Pirates.they're kinda slacking on the Castle figures, but there's still a couple per yearLego is invincible.don't like it? build it!
Soon
raid post.
>>11926626People always suspected that the line was literally a dumping ground for parts overstock, or something. The line was essentially just Lego "Not Back to the Future" there is just so much more they could have done with that than just weird amalgamations of parts from other themes. I thought the Time Twisters side actually had more focused, coherent sets.
>>11926004>>11926441Lego pretty much just passed Castle and Pirates over to the BLD program. They know people will buy anything, so they can just finagle it so that the largest set in any given BLD series is a big castle 90% of the time, and the few times it isn't, its probably a big pirate ship or something.
>>11926657that's a creator theme set not a pirate theme.pirates theme 1989–2015 status = cancelledcastle theme 1979–2013 status = cancelledspace theme 1978–2013 status = cancelled
>>11926752>dumping ground for parts overstockBlatantlyIt was nonsense
>>11926547Loved that set. The crusher squashed many intruders, and the green bases and rock walls were re-used so many times over the years.
>>11926305I guess smart brick isn't going anywhere for awhile.
>>11926594lego needs to do another time travel theme
>>11926752It definitely was, but I never found that to be a bad thing. The wacky mechanisms always made it a treat regardless.
>>11926752It was overstock. The part choices were very weird. And i believe that this was a seed for the Lego Movie sets.But i cant see that they would 30 years ago pull off similar builds they did with the movie.
Why do we hate Knights Kingdom 2?
>>11926732Yeah yeah. We all saw the announcement and have already stopped caring. Go shout into the reddit void.
>>11926854It insists upon itself too much.
>>11926768>that's a creator theme setexactly. "create" your own pirate setall you need is the pirate character to make it look like it was a "real" pirate setthat's why people are Minifig hoarders. it's usually the only part of a set that you can't "create" (and even that is not always true)
>>11926854the bright solid colors make them look silly instead of coolI think the little animal icons needed to be like, 20% cooler, too
>>11926854ridiculous power ranger characters
>>11926854Solidifed the overly bright color coded characters trend and the sets are just not well designed, play features are weak zd they look terrible for display leaving them unsatisfying for both kinds of demographics. It and Castle 2007 were my childhood castle themes and while I don't love 07 I get why it has fans and do enjoy the later factions like dwarves and trolls, KK2 though just has zero appeal to me even with the nostalgia of having owned numerous sets from the theme. KK1 at least has great minifigs, more then I can even say then for KK2.
>>11925655So they'll introduce in a new road system soon, bring back the old plates, or City is next on the chopping block.I think it's option III.
>>11926547Batlord will always be my alltime favorite Lego original character.
>>11926861The only problem is that themed sets got parts and colors that makes it a real pirate/castle/space. The pirate set is nice for,ships. But that hideout looks not very pirate. Or when you want some red coats and their fort?
>>11926854tried too hard to be bionicle when castle doesn't lend itself to that style nexo knights was a somewhat better attempt at it, but still had a similar issue
>>11927009>when you want some red coats and their fort?you're right, those Pirates need some um... enemies (?)>>11927009>sets got parts and colors that makes it a real pirate/castle/space.also correct. but it's a lot easier to MOC your own cannon or space blaster, than the pirate or space guy. Lego needs to step-up the game on those Creator sets and include those types of pieces, too
>>11927082Yes, when you want some enemies, hope you bought the fort before it retired. And thats the problem. Creator has always a wide array of themes and you might hope in the future they add fitting sets.
>>11927082Sure you can moc, but than you need to brick hunting.
>>11926162My buddy at the Lego store says he's never seen a single shart brick set sell in the months its been available. They had them ship some back and took down a giant light up version of the brick they had set up in the store.Smart brick is dead.
We’re back bitches!
Has Lego acknowledged smart bricks az a fail to any degree or are they still in max shill mode to try to salvage them? I know there are set lines scheduled to include them but I would imagine even they're forced to see the writing on the walls by now.
>>11927215have they acknowledged any of their failures in the past 5 years? they keep trying smart phone integration and it bombs every single time
what's a head that's suitable for malfoid i can't find one bitchy enough
>>11927281The regular draco face
>>11927284fair enough jej
>>11927215>In place of the now-discontinued Smart Bricks programme, LEGO is proud to introduce the all-new Tri-Brick System™ – a revolutionary building experience in which every single brick has exactly three sides.
hey we're back! Also I hate Lego
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! ! !
>>11927332Looks like kino at reasonable prices
I know bricklink wants you to "resolve" any issues before posting negative feedback, but what the fuck is there to resolve?Seller is a lying sack of shit and everyone should know, but for some bizarre reason he has 99% praise while his last negative feedback was from SIX YEARS AGO.I usually don't ever post negative feedback, but I have never experienced bullshit of this degree before.>mousekek got what he deservedYeah yeah yeah laugh it up.
>>11927608LOL
what do we think of midi-figs / bigger-figs / mid-size figs?
>>11927630cringe
>>11922324man, there's an alpha team lot I'm looking at getting that's a good price, but it's got some sets I already have alongside sets I want. Issue is the sets I do own are mostly disassembled in storage, and I may not even have the pieces for them. Should I bite and buy it or ignore the lot?
>>11926854I feel like older castle sets worked better with armies and maybe one or two central figures like Basil, but this went way too hard in the "distinct character" direction, and kind of lost a lot of what made castle so appealing. And I'm saying this as someone who grew up with it
>>11926547either the aquazone reboot around 2007 or exo forcereally cool concepts but the sets were flimsy as fuck
>>11927646save your money for something better, alpha team sux
Pic related is my prediction for the next Lego Icons displayshit vehicle, even if the rest of /lg/ has better ideas.

It's official, Daft Punk is getting an ideas set
>>11927680Cool but I have a feeling it will be overpriced

Hey frens today is my one day off this week so I'm gonna build some haunted grounds for the mansion out of the Halloween wreath
>>11927608Didn’t get some random torso in an otherwise good order so gave them a mixed review, because it cost 5 dollars. Meanwhile some guy offered to give me the jetpack he accidentally missed in the mail and I accepted and it came to me, communication helps but going for more obscure sellers does too.
>>11927720>no 3 in 1 mansioncringe

>>11927732Thanks frenBuilding the Halloween wreath is surprisingly soothing. The lil Halloween greebling is very comfy
>>11927731Huh, that is a pretty clever idea to get an actual full building instead of a cut-in-half one.

Are there any bootlego sellers that make these bodies in different colors/without these prints? Pics are from official One Piece figs.I really really want more of this type of bodies
>>11927917>I really really want more of this type of bodiespatience?I have a feeling Lego likes those new tiny bodies, too, and will make a bunch more at some pointI bet someone at Lego is doing the Homer "D'oh!" and wishing they had those for all the lame Dreamzzzzz tiny bad guy things, which would have been a ton cooler (those Dreamzzzzzzzz tiny bodies were so awkwardly not-good)
>>11927949These could be better for sure, but I like the idea way more than just using the stupid baby Yeed body for a bunch of shit.
>>11927781It's just Lego's approach of Buy 2 to get 1 actually complete set
>>11928129that guy needs to be standing on the cookie yo
Just saw this for the first time in like 25 years and I got emotional with nostalgia. Mind you I never even had any of these sets I just remember looking at this piece of paper all the time and think of how cool this lego world was and how I wish I could have it and play with it
>>11928160I get it. Looking at those old promotionals in the Sunday paper or the catalog that showed up for the holiday season. Just seeing all those sets, even knowing I could never have them. It was fun to imagine having them and all the adventures they offered.
>>11928160combining model landscapes with lego is the best
Yall asked for it
>>11928345or, they could, oh, i dunno, make a toy?!
>>11928345LEGO has no fucking sense as a companyThey could print money re-releasing old sets, or make new sets in classic themes like Castle, Western, Space, Aquazone etc, but instead they make this stupid soccer shit that DOES NOT SELL.
but will it be the ruin or its prime?
