Roebuck Posted March 29 Author Posted March 29 There is a wolf den in one of the City arctic sets, I assume this means it comes with at least one wolf , but the info did not specify. Apparently the leaker was more focused the builds rather than minifigs and animals, talk about having the wrong priority Quote

I guess we'll have to hold our pigeons tightly and wait until next year Quote

The good news is that at least on wolf will come to B&P in time Quote
williejm Posted March 29 Posted March 29 Y’know … whilst I kind of like the fun of leaks and teasing and speculating, this is the *worst* bit : when someone has seen the sets and doesn’t give you the info you want. I just need pictures already to begin planning the further expansion of my wolf army. My money is on a white wolf recolour, and either two wolves, or one with two cubs. I’d assume they’d reuse the existing shepherd pup mould, and honestly I’m fine with that, as I think it works ok. Would dearly love the wolf/s not to have angry eyebrows … but I’m not betting any money on that. 7 hours ago, SketchBrick said: Shame that it seems we may not get any other notable animals in the summer wave.

But you would kinda think they would mention this if it would be included. At least with the second set the Wolf den implies that there is a wolf inside. 17 hours ago, williejm said: Y’know … whilst I kind of like the fun of leaks and teasing and speculating, this is the *worst* bit : when someone has seen the sets and doesn’t give you the info you want.

For me the pup doesn´t work at all, I want them to make proper wolf cubs. Quote

But you would kinda think they would mention this if it would be included. They did not even mention the number of minifigs in that set so still possible there are some animals included unless it's without minifigs Interesting they once again have used the CMF budget to bring moulds to other themes. I am very much for this practice and in this case it was very impressive with the figure and shield for MTS and the wolf for City combined in one CMF. On the other hand it makes me frustrated that the MTS had so low budget that it needed help from two CMF to include any animals at all, what should have been one of the better animal sets of all time was cut to shreds in the budget department Quote

That is still the biggest disappointement about this set honestly. Quote

Wildlife would be the most obvious option - so maybe there’s a chance Quote

Not trying to be contrary, just interested in how a ‘wolf cub’ would differ substantially from the shepherd pup mould we have? I’ve three part-shepherd dogs at home, of varying sizes, and I legit don’t see much difference between a wolf cub and a shepherd type pup … Quote

Especially the 2018 Mammoth looks really bad compared to todays standards, and while the sabre-tooth looks similar to what modern moulds look like, I would still like to get a new version of it.

Molds going extinction just like Ice Age animals. I think it would be great for lego to revisit Ice Age animals and redo them for someday! Quote

If nothing else, it’s about time that the CMF cave people had some offspring … couple of ‘cave kids’ CMFs, each with a baby mammoth or sabre-tooth …. ? We can dream Quote
