No, why? The Incredibles sets are not summer sets. Anyways, why would I answer that? Lmao... -
The Incredibles 2 2018: Rumors and Discussion

Nope; not true. Walmart always does this, months in advance. Unfortunately, with folks like J2G, it's becoming more and more challenging to keep them hidden. :/ -

And elsewhere. A 75181 UCS Y-Wing is coming; 100%. EDIT: If you'd like, try conducting a Ctrl+F search for the term "UCS Y-Wing" on this page. Is that @Sir von Lego in the comments? -
It's called "T. rex Transport"; that's the name. It's a Jurassic World set that should be around $70 US. Likely, yeah. And yes, Zia is in that set. :) That should be on the back of 75931 as well. Hahaha, I know that, man, because I'm the one who shared those images. :) Happy to help. Hey, man; sorry that I missed this one of yours; thanks @dimaks13! 75929 Carnotaurus Gyrosphere Escape: 577 pieces, $79.99 US 75930 Indoraptor Rampage at Lockwood Estate: 1019 pieces, $129.99 US

LEGO Star Wars 2018 Set Discussion - READ FIRST POST!
Azani replied to MKJoshA's topic in LEGO Star Wars
I mean, yeah, likely within the next year. Regardless of their current or projected financial situation, Toys 'R' Us is a 70 year old multi billion-dollar company that controls incredible assets. There will be at least one Toys 'R' Us exclusive set for Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom, so I'd be surprised if TLG was legitimately concerned about the short term. -

Ahaha, I'm pretty certain that that's because there will not be any Ant Man & Wasp sets. What? There are Brickheadz releasing every month for the rest of the year, except for June and September.

I can understand why you'd think that, but nope. We're getting additional BH kits in May, August, and October. The D2C is set for October or November. As it is, it's certainly a possibility. We may be getting additional "Wizarding World" Brickheadz kits later in the year, so Ron is certainly likely. Beck, we might see a Ron & Scabbers dualpack, á la Harry & Hedwig. Very excited for the D2C; have we heard anything more on the likelihood of 71022 (CMF) being a Wizarding World line?

Yup; that said, we're still waiting on the NA boxes for most. :) I do have all the pertinent piece count(s) on hand, so just ask if y'all want a certain one. I'm not telling you what to do, but you might want to remove that. Yes, one of the dualpacks is 41614 Owen & Blue.

It might be smaller than the 2007 castle, but it's certainly a kit with over 1500 pieces. I'm with you on this one, man; in a perfect world, that would be a plausible set. :) It's a big set - 753 pieces, IIRC. No, but I'm sure that it'll be a pretty phenomenal setup.

Star Wars Constraction 2018 Discussion & Rumors
Azani replied to VBBN's topic in LEGO Action Figures
I'm done with your crap, dude. I've been nothing but patient and polite with you, in this thread and over PM, while you've been pushing all kinds of fringe crap on me. You've been so ridiculously rude and accusatory that it's hard to believe that you've lasted here for this long. Yeah, I mean, ideally that break would have come after the end of G2; that being said, I'm hopeful. :) It's possible, at least until the summer rolls up. SvL seemed to be pretty adamant that the two kits were canceled outright. Actually, we were on track to get more CCBS than we did in 2017. (Assuming that we saw the same number of sets in 2HY as we had last year) Five new sets before May. I understand the whole "lowest common denominator" piece, and you're right about the hypocrisy there. That wasn't worded very well on my part. That said, I feel like you're making it sound like I'm a fan who never interacts with this side of the community. I've been active in the constraction community for way longer than I've been in the general AFOL wing of things, and the contrast is huge. It's not just this thread, and it's not new. I love Bionicle and constraction and a ton of the folks who make up the community as well, believe me. What happened is that I made a prediction that turned out to be incorrect, and voiced some opinions that turned out to be really unpopular. Some people in this thread reacted as though I'd just murdered their families. This isn't normal stuff, lol. Awesome. :) -

Sure, and just to be straight-up clear, Sir von Lego is correct. I drew a conclusion that turned out to be mistaken - just take his word for it. -

Azani replied to MKJoshA's topic in LEGO Star Wars
Nope. The two figures are 100% canceled. This is correct; I was mistaken, and I'll be glad to admit that. Sure, but it's important to keep in mind that the original "source" was an anonymous guy on a Russian social network who edited his post to say that he was mistaken within a few hours. Well, I can understand that; however, it's pretty clear that many people did like them; especially these two. -
Star Wars Constraction 2018 Discussion & Rumors
Azani replied to VBBN's topic in LEGO Action Figures
I'm going on the record here: I absolutely made a mistake. I messed up on this one, as soon as I tossed my hat in the ring and asserted that the summer "wave" was, in fact, not cancelled. Y'know, it was a tough call on my part, because the situation seemed pretty opaque just a few days back. Obviously, I now know that I was mistaken, for a number of reasons. Let me make something clear: no one deserves all the garbage that's been making the rounds in this thread. I'll take responsibility for my part - I lost my cool and said some inappropriate things. I got really annoyed over how some folks were reacting, and I'm sorry. But man, I'll be honest - I really just don't understand how this whole situation could possibly be seen as some sort of foregone conclusion - really, the sort of thing that only a moron would argue against. If anyone's still in the dark, I'll be crazy clear: it's the construction community. Holy crap, it sucks. It's not one person on their own, but the vibe that gets tossed around when a group of folks aren't really sure what they're after. I don't usually say this, but it's like a giant circlejerk. I used to believe that the folks who went on about how toxic and temperamental the community was were just misinformed. Now, in the casual AFOL community, I cam't fathom why I'd ever want to go back. Now, a funny thing happened today. It shouldn't surprise anyone to see that every guy who's been calling me out has one thing in common. No posts outside of this useless constraction figure forum. No interest in LEGO - just in this fringe community, where nothing ever happens and nothing ever will. -
Star Wars Constraction 2018 Discussion & Rumors
Azani replied to VBBN's topic in LEGO Action Figures
Yo. No need to say whatever you want to say. You obviously don't know the story, so I'd go back a bit and stick your head outside of this forum. Check out the rest of EB, and see what anyone who gives a %#! about actual LEGO thinks of me. -

Star Wars Constraction 2018 Discussion & Rumors
Azani replied to VBBN's topic in LEGO Action Figures
Aw, you're completely missing the point, man. It's not a matter of whether or not you're being nice; it's a matter of whether or not you feel like you have to default to being rude because everything that you're saying can be disproven. If you don't like that, you could always try to learn about the topic. No. -
Star Wars Constraction 2018 Discussion & Rumors
Azani replied to VBBN's topic in LEGO Action Figures
So, typically if a person is correct, they will feel pretty confident in what they're saying. Typically, if a person is incorrect, then they're pretty dead-set on insulting the other guy. Maybe you should try to be a little nicer, and see if you can make a friend or two. Also: This is a lie. Don't lie. Good luck, lmao. -
Star Wars Constraction 2018 Discussion & Rumors
Azani replied to VBBN's topic in LEGO Action Figures
At this point, I knew that I should stop reading, but I kept doing so against my better judgement. Yeah, you must enjoy doing this online. This is going to be a mega-post, if that's alright. That person is wrong. I wasn't sure at first, but I ran by their source, a group that edited their initial (public) statement to clarify that they were mistaken several hours ago. That's an incredibly vague statement that could mean 10 different things. It could be omitting 75533 and 75534 from the "five new figures", as they had already been released. Coincidentally, that's two figures, which would allow for 75538 and 75539. Actually, I said that it was looking like that at the moment. Dude, it seems like you're really desperate to find stuff that will support your point here. Sure, that's fair. I certainly don't belive that they sell great, or have ever been one of TLG's strong points. I've never said that. However... To be honest, I didn't think that this was true, so I checked up on Brickset, where all the SW figures are listed on this page. Here's the breakdown, with the first wave in 2015 omitted for space/irrelevancy reasons: January 2016 75113: Rey 75114: First Order Stormtrooper 75115: Poe Dameron 75116: Finn 75117: Kylo Ren 75118: Captain Phasma October 2016 75119: Sergeant Jyn Erso 75120: K-2SO 75121: Imperial Death Trooper February 2017 75523: Scarif Stormtrooper 75524: Chirrut Îmwe 75525: Baze Malbus June 2017 75531: Stormtrooper Commander 75532: Scout Trooper & Speeder Bike September 2017 75526: Elite TIE Fighter Pilot 75528: Rey 75529: Elite Praetorian Guard 75530: Chewbacca January 2018 75533: Boba Fett 75534: Darth Vader April 2018 75535: Han Solo 75536: Range Trooper 75537: Darth Maul August 2018 75538: Super Battle Droid 75539: 501st Legion Clone Trooper & AT-RT Walker ___________ In this case, 75538 and 75539 are relevant to the trend, even if they don't get released. If they were planned, then it's straight-up indicative, from TLG's point of view, of a response to whatever sales looked like at that point in the process. There are two complete years to go off of here: 2016 and 2017. We got nine in 2016. We got nine in 2017. Just off of what we know for a fact, TLG had planned seven for 2018 - at least. Are they releasing fewer each wave, as you said? Yes, they are; however, they're also releasing them in more waves. Each set has a higher piece count, and is more expensive. No, they are not releasing fewer and fewer each year. Not even close. I mean, I am new to this forum, yeah. I'm sorry, I guess, that I haven't done my research; I'm sorry that I haven't been searching up your username and looking at your MOCs, man. What I know is pretty clear - you just seem as though you're really, really pessimistic, dude. I know that constraction isn't doing awesome, yeah. If I did say that, and you responded that I was delusional, I'd agree. But frankly, we don't have much to go off, ever. I'm a skeptic with a lot of things; in this case, I just happen to also like the thing in question. -

Azani replied to MKJoshA's topic in LEGO Star Wars
I would agree with you on that one. I also know what all the confidential SW sets are for this summer. I know what all the Brickheadz are, and I know what the HP sets are. I'm not saying that you don't have the ability or the discretion to find things, but I am saying that the fact that you personally have not seen a particular thing does not necessarily imply that it does not exist. I could start posting links to EU shopping sites that have listed the sets, but I don't believe that I'm able to do that on EB. If you'd like to contact me elsewhere, I would be happy to show you in private. -

Nope, I haven't. I'm not excusing you, even though that's a figure of speech. I never was, dude. I'm glad that you're happy to be proven wrong, because there is proof. I mentioned it in my initial post, that you quoted above. You're free to go check out the source that FalconFan was referencing right here. -
Nah, the Great Hall looks very good. The castle, which is coming, will look awesome.
