It looks like a real CASTLE tower. More effort goes HP than for example Icons / Ideas / Creator Castles. Also amazing 3-head dog mold.

It also costs €250, so it's more about budget, and not effort.

[imposter]

I think LEGO puts EXTRA effort for SW and HP.

[Agent Kallus]

In terms of budget? Sure I could definitely believe that.

77077 new fortnite set has a cool fig with crown but it will be IP-locked I imagine and therefore not on PAB. Too bad.

Is it possible to build an arch like that and end up getting 3 holes like that? If not I am not sure what they could be other than shields even if they might look a little bit small. Maybe the drawing do not take distance into consideration so closer things get bigger and things in the background get smaller

I think the drawing is by AI, and is literally like it’s been traced? One thing I wasn’t sure of was the heart shaped one in the middle though, which made me wonder if there was a sticker on the arch with shields and a heart shape printed on it?

Well it isn´t. He traced the leaked image he got, so the actual size of stuff should stay the same. What it would be? A sticker seems like the most likely option honestly.

Not just a bit small, but way to small.

Stickers in a Creator set?

What do you think tracing is it's a drawing.  There's no way it's a sticker

It certainly wouldn´t be the first. Honestly, at first I also thought, it would be unlikely, since Creator usually prefers  to build stuff, rather than use a sticker, so especially a heart sticker would be strange. But if the shields are a stickers anyways, because the show a horse or unicorn on them, then they can just use a big sticker instead I guess (not saying it couldn´t be three small ones thought). 

And yeah, there are stickers in Creator Sets, the Postcards have them, though the best example probably is 31131 Downtown Noodle Shop. I also thought if they maybe would make a print for it and while I think it is possible, they probably would more likely use a sticker.

No shit sherlock. Your point was that it wouldn´t be accurate sizewise because it would be just a drawing. But unlike just copying something you see directly tracing it would only vary very slightly size-wise.

Don´t get me wrong, I would be more than happy to be wrong here and get one or two more new shields, but to me the most likely option would be sticker, followed by print and just afterwards that the tracing was off by that much.

No reason to get all excited there.  I'm just saying it's looks like the shield and there isn't any other piece like that.  It will most likely be a shield as this is a castle.

I don´t doubt it is a shield, just wouldn´t be sure it is a moulded one ;). But anyways it is strange that we didn´t get any info on them in the description, as you would think, no matter if it is moulded, printed, stickered or brick built, it is an important part of the overall build.

Well, we will see with time what it really is, I hope you are right. If they are indeed moulded shields, what do you think will be on them? A unicorn on one and a Pegasus on the other? Facing towards each other - that would be what I would want to see.

[Lion King]

With unicorn foal in Creator set coming up and DreamZzz and Monkie Kid themes will be discontinued , would we see a girl-centered, minifigure-only in-house theme like we had the minidoll-only Elves theme?

I think it will be a unicorn on the shield or possibly something like what the unicorn cmf fig had on it's shield.

That Herbology HP set has some great pieces the new pot piece and the Mandrakes will make for some interesting pieces to be used in MOC's.   Also, that bubble piece in sand green looks very useful also.  I can't tell what gold piece is used on the top that looks to have a hook on it but definitely a set worth getting.

I wonder what colour they'd use for them? Earth orange, standard orange or the new Tomato Soup orange?

Friends comic and gaming shop has some cool parts. A reuse for the elf ears + braided hair from the D&D set and a new unicorn print for the Hylian shield part!

There are also lots of interesting non-castle related pars like a real classic slave helmet and antenna for the plushie styled city aliens and can fit into the small pin connection point.

[zoth33]

There is a new pear piece coming in some of the animal crossing sets.  It will be nice to have some different fruit variety instead of just the apple and cherry pieces.

Hopefully that shield ends up on PaB that would be great.

Presumably you mean space! I was looking closely at the pictures trying to work out what a slave helmet is until I spotted the space helmet in the interior.

Ha, I didn´t even realise he wrote slave, I did just read space anyways.

Yeah... That was was actually a double typo!  I meant 'Teal Space helmet' not 'Real Slave helmet'.

I guess a slave helmet would be like a gladiator one as most of them were enslaved?
