Marvel Superheroes 2021 - Rumors & Discussion
Metanoios replied to Captain Nemo's topic in LEGO Licensed
A "lower your expectations" with the Black Panther minifigure upfront would have been more helpful, just saying -
Yes the hair is trans light blue with a dark blue head band. We will get the same hair piece also in her regular black with medium azure headband

Lady Loki would also be a likely candidate since they are trying to include more female characters in the cmf these days. -
I think you misunderstood @Lego-Freak : the first wave of HP anniversary sets (Polyjuice set, Chamber of secrets, Hogsmeade, Third floor corridor) are still scheduled for a June release (according to newest table published in this Promobricks article today https://www.promobricks.de/goldene-lego-harry-potter-minifiguren/120582/ ). They just updated the Fawkes buildabe creature set, 76392 Wizard Chess and the rest of the third wave in their table to August "8/2021" now (which was previously June in their table from an article published in February). The Advent Calendar is releasing in September. So we are getting 3 waves this year: 1st wave: Hogwarts Moments (January 21) 2nd wave: Anniversary sets 76386-76389 (June 21) 3rd wave: Rest of anniversary sets and buildable creations 76392-76395 (August 21) Advent calendar and D2C are seperate releases

IMO Draco has the highest chance to be in a polybag like Obi-Wan

Lego was always a luxury product and can be considered, like all toys, a "cash grab". Humans and primates survived for thousands of years without anything but sticks amd stones. So you are free to play with those if you think this wave is a cash grab.

Those pictures have the actual box backgrounds behind them. Your list is not entirely accurate, it seems. Snape has the chess box background and Quirrel the Quidditch training grounds.
-
We knew this from the prelim picture of the 3D-printed prototype piece already. That's why it is a little bit bulkier (to fit over a minifig head and incorporate a transformation feature)
-
The horses will be standing on their hind legs (like in the movie) and will therefore only have a 2x3 plate foot print, which would mean both a 4x4 or 3x3 chess square patterns are options. No 6x6 needed. The chess figures will be brickbuilt with minifig helmets and accesories.

What if it's just printed cardboard cards with the characters in Lego minifig design?
-
Wizard chocolate frog cards?
-
When you know nothing of the D2C, it is fairly easy to protect your source (because the source doesn't exist...). It is not rude to ask them to clarify that they don't know what the D2C is. That helps us more than hat eating and speculative comments But that would leave the 119.99 set unaccounted for?
-
It's dark tan with white face and belly printing so you could pass it as a barn owl Oh you're right, the summer city set 60302 has two white eggs beside the crocodile in the prelims so the print fits better for a hatching croc
-
Although I think the "dragon" egg could be from Jurassic world sets and is a hatching raptor print instead
-
New owl (propably appears in Chamber of secrets set) and a hatching dragon egg leaked (edit: more likely crocodile egg)
-
If you have reliable information share it, otherwise you can admit that you know as much as the rest of us - which is nada
-
The chess set was never the D2C for 250. No downscaling happened. The chess D2C was "fake news".
-
How do you think this would acutally work that Lego would shift a scheduled production cycle for the D2C 5 months before release? Their information was wrong. The leakers listen to hearsay in social media back channels which can easily be misrepresented or incomplete/wrong

Lego City 2021 Rumours, information and discussion
Metanoios replied to Powered by Bricks's topic in LEGO Town
This set from 2015 just depicts a typical family afternoon in the Florida Glades, but I guess that's why it works with the positive and family-friendly values. They even included Florida man with his hillbilly beard, daughter and pet-aligator (/sarcasm) -
The real irony is you posting the image where she is wearing that exact clasp/broche and telling us you have never seen her wear it. You, sir, are a comedian in the making! Ever heard of colour correction in movies? Costumes can look dark and broody in the final film while in reality they are colourful and bright. This scene is desaturated and muted to fit the emotional realisation of Sirius Black's motives and to enhance the invisibilty cloak scene

They could just rename it into "Dynamite factory with police protection" and release it that way. The pictures would kind of work as well. -
Quidditch cup? Animatronic flying Harry?
