In this particular case, it's rather simple. The jacket was intended as an extra torso, so they could easily release a keychain of Antoni with his "main" white outfit None of the other torsos look branded or copyright-protected to me (tbf, neither did that jacket)

They take that risk with every single set they‘re buying It‘s a single medium-sized set, if a small shop orders 2000 copies it‘s their own fault Isn‘t it an (semi-) exclusive set? Hm, what could POSSIBLY be the reason for that? Escapes me

Big sets like that easily take 1.5 years or longer to design, so when the Ideas project was rejected, the official set was already being worked on. Happened with one of the recent Creator cars as well, bad timing I agree with @williejm, that case is not really relevant here. I fail to see the irony here If would be ironic if the set was based on a courtroom show How do you know there was no market analysis backing it up? They've worked with Netflix before (Stranger Things), and Queer Eye has 5 seasons or so Even if that was true, so... so what? A designer got one of his dream projects realised, where exactly is the harm in that?

Sounds like the synopsis of a heist movie

I hope the small City and Marvel leaks today are just the advance party and the 2HY floodgates will be opened soon HP tends to be among the first themes to get descriptions, so fingers crossed!

Awesome news! A rare case when something that sounds too good to be true is actually true

This is our first calf, so yes, it is new

2022 must be the year of the baby animals then Too bad there’s no new chick, missed opportunity

I don’t think that’s been confirmed anywhere. People just assume it’s an MBS set because the last three were released two years apart As us HP fans had to learn the hard way last year, release patterns aren’t always as predictable as we think they are

My money is on a remake of the 2005 DS II set $530 seems a bit much for a MBS-style set and I doubt they’d remake the DS playset again this soon

Good point. I’d say it‘s either a new colour or a resurrected medium brown Hopefully the leaker will have their 2004 Spider-Man 2 sets ready to make a proper comparison

I think we haven‘t seen the scared expression before, or have we? Yeah, apart from that, there‘s nothing new these leaks could show us. After all, we have full pictures of everything included in the March wave

Good to hear Some people took the „this is Amazon‘s GOT“ thing very literally

It was intended to be a hybrid event from the get-go, so what was cancelled was the (more important) offline part I wouldn‘t expect anything out of it

Lambasting their social media platforms with annoying hashtags, perhaps? That seems to have worked for the 501st Clone Trooper set …please don‘t actually do that
