10341 Artemis I Rocket & Launchpad Discussion
Vilhelm22 replied to Vilhelm22's topic in Special LEGO Themes
Unable to find pics online but only in a private Facebook group - saw a set image leak today and it looks terrific. A month until release so official pics should appear soon. -
Brick Clicker stated on Instagram today that the next Icons vehicle will be a Lamborghini Countach. 10337 Lamborghini Countach 1506 pieces US$179.99/€????/£???? The release date should be July 1st Discuss below. Personally quite excited for this one, though I know some people may be disappointed as there’s a decent Countach design on rebrickable as an alternative to the Porsche 911. It’ll most likely be a different colour though, so I’m interested to see which they choose.

Sounds about right. The guy in my club got his 6-8 weeks afterwards with no real info given. BMR’s admin seems chaotic or non existent. We’re trying to get them stocked for selling over here but hear nothing at all from their team.
-
I would still order them if you want them. I’m thinking of buying some Kadee couplers soon (which requires US-UK shipping), and someone in my club did so recently and it took a few weeks but for transatlantic that’s not too bad.

Lovely little MOC this - I always love the tiny things people come up with on here. There must be some pretty high tech engineering inside it to reduce the amount of energy needed.

Technically it isn’t Art although it’s everything an art set is. Gotham City Skyline, revealed today. https://brickset.com/sets/76271-1/Gotham-City-Skyline

The other thing I find is that the high speed trains of China and Japan nearly all seem to have a variation in colour scheme of blue/white/grey - which after a while gets rather dull in my opinion. In contrast, Europe's high speed rail services are often much more colourful - take the Eurostar, Thalys, TGV Sud-Est, and the Italian Frecciarossa ETR 500. The colour schemes and overall shape of these I generally much prefer. Even the DB ICE sets are made more interesting with the contrasting red stripe, although they've done some similar city sets before. Like @Kalahari134 says, the 0 Series is instantly recognisable and a good choice should they go down the Asia-Pacific route.
-
Apologies - I’ve changed it now. It seems that although it’s retired in most of the world, European shops still have it in stock with no issues. There’s a ** which says this which I’ll later delete when it sells out in Europe.

The Loop Coaster is also predicted to require this year which would otherwise leave us with nothing which hasn't happened since the range properly began (between Grand Carousel and Fairground Mixer there was a gap but I don't think the Grand Carousel really counts as it was before the regular series kicked off).
-
@mod123 @Murdoch17 That's bizarre - in the UK there are no signs of it retiring anytime soon hence my inclusion of it on the list. I may therefore keep it that way for the moment - when did it retire in your country?
-
According to Brick Fanatics, 76405 Hogwarts Express Collector's Edition is going to retire this year. Not surprised in the slightest though - hopefully this might tell TLG that bigger is NOT always better, and we want an actual train we can run! It won't have even lasted 18 months assuming it has a December 31st retirement date. In the Harry Potter theme you would expect a big market too - the Hogwarts Castle 71043 will have been around 6 years this September and shows no signs of retiring any time soon.

[MOC] Medway 4703 "Maria"- Siemens Eurosprinter

Another stunner from you @Sérgio! I’m always so impressed with your MOCs with how you so rarely use stickers - many for the arrows would have done so but you’ve achieved it without! Perfection is one of your many skills. -
MOCs: Models of trains running in Hungary

A grand station and a grand masterpiece! Very recognisable shape and style as well - I travelled from Bratislava to Budapest and then Budapest to Krakow and saw many of these on the way. Can’t wait to see pictures of the full station in operation in the near future!
