21306: The Beatles Yellow Submarine (LEGO Ideas)

[Artanis I]

Thought for a moment that the box art had a tribute to Abbey Road (a set I'd much rather have), but Paul is in step with the others so it's just my mind looking for patterns that don't exist again

[ZootyCutie]

Ooh, that looks great! I didn't expect Jeremy to end up as a minifigure, and I love the use of giving them props from the ending. ^_^

So we completely missed this being uploaded weeks ago. From a YT video

Any chance you could post a link to the video? I tried searching YouTube for "GeekTree", but found only videogame stuff...

[Artanis I]

It's just those 2 photos

[Borex]

I love it. 

[x105Black]

I generally do just that, as a look at my post history should show. When did we change from quoted images being permitted as long as they weren't on the same page?

My quote did in fact have a specific reason for using the images, as they were marked "GeekTree", and I noted that I'd done a search on YouTube for "GeekTree" but hadn't located the video. Without those images, though, the reason for my search wouldnt have been clear to someone joining the thread only on the last page and seeing my post but not the one to which I was responding.

I regret that in my appraisal of whether quoting the images was warranted I obviously reached a different conclusion from yours, but I assure you I did give the matter due consideration.

No worries mate. I just responded to the report, so I didn't know your previous posting behavior. My bad

In general quoting pictures is frowned upon, unless you want to point something out.  I am not aware of any "not on the same page" permissions. 

Good to hear that you are a fine citizen

Has a release date been mentioned? I saw on reddit someone claimed it was out November 1st.

[Robianco]

I think I might give the Lego store a call and check a date. If people have box images etc then they must be ready for distribution or have been shipped ready for release.

I saw that and $59.99. Seems steep for this. 

[1980-Something-Space-Guy]

Ouch, $60. Did someone say Bricklink?

[H3ssian]

looks like 89.99 NZD down this way

 

[Robianco]

I think most of the recent Ideas sets have been between £40 and £50 anyway so there's no surprise with that pricing for me.

[thedudeabides]

Official announcement coming tomorrow. 

[CM4Sci]

Good to know! Maybe this is their response to the leaks...

[BrickJagger]

Looks great! A little pricey, though.

[Man with a hat]

WOW. Nice! 
This actually looks better than the original submission.

[(1)Stein]
