Wardancer Posted Tuesday at 07:29 PM Author Posted Tuesday at 07:29 PM There is a new, very big, dark green leaf piece in the upcoming Christmas ornament Very promising. I cannot figure out how it looks on the other side though. Quote

Roebuck Posted Wednesday at 05:24 AM Posted Wednesday at 05:24 AM I think Space fans will have more use of the fig than Castle fans I think Lego are getting a little carried away with adding Castle and Space parts in other sets now, just give us proper sets from those themes that is what we really want Quote

Not usable for castle fans. Oh well we have gotten enough new castle factions now : Black Adders, Griffin Lords, Kraken Raiders and Riders of Rohan (horse faction) Waiting for them to be released on pab. We still need a proper return of the Black Knights with their iconic long dragon shields. Quote
RichardGoring Posted Wednesday at 07:08 PM Posted Wednesday at 07:08 PM I thought it was a castle set? Elf faction? Present faction? Christmas faction? Santa and Mrs Claus the king and queen. Jousting on reindeer (just need some barding). Red and white flags. I'd put them more towards the outlaws side of things though, with Wolfpack and Forestmen, hiding in trees. More seriously, I agree that it's a bit of a pain to have to get things piecemeal as opposed to just nice sets dedicated to the relevant theme. It's fun to have all these minifigures, but without the sets to go with it, the parts supply dries up, and enthusiasm doesn't really build with new fans, so it's a vicious cycle. It's clearly making them money though, so not sure we'll see a change any time soon. Quote
Robert8 Posted yesterday at 04:10 PM Posted yesterday at 04:10 PM CMF Series 28 recent leaks show some of the new animal masks I think the lion one will be perfect for some castle MOCs Quote

So this series will be a total skip for me. Quote

You know what that means Something like this would never happen with a castle or history themed CMF. If Lego would do a castle CMF it would be the best selling CMF by far. People would buy the minifigs in great masses. But the thing is, if people could buy detailed CMF quality castle minifigs for €3,99, would they still buy the overpriced sets? I hope Lego proves me wrong, but I think that's the reason why we did not get one yet and it looks bad for the future imo. Quote

This really isn't a big deal and I don't see why you care as the pieces will end up on PAB On 9/10/2025 at 3:08 PM, RichardGoring said: I thought it was a castle set? Elf faction? Present faction?

This isn't that big of a deal as the pieces will end up on PAB. Now the griffon and kraken knights are more of a bigger deal especially if they don't end up on PAB. Quote

Even the classic space parts are pretty close to regular green, and those are probably the only parts that tempt me. The worry is that these, and the griffon and kraken knights only come to Standard Pick a Brick which is currently unavailable in the US. Quote

Fingers crossed Quote
