NONE of the 10K Pirate LEGO Ideas Submissions have been approved!
Darnok replied to Brickander Brickumnus's topic in LEGO Pirates
I take this as a positive sign for upcoming Pirates sets, similar to what @Roebuck said. -
Dammit, you could have made (or still do!) an excellent BotBS story out of this. Great work!

Not it will not - not everything revolves around that damn topic. -
LEGO Hidden Side 2020
Darnok replied to Digger of Bricks's topic in LEGO Action and Adventure Themes
People from Germany should check out Saturn and/or Media Markt, HS is sold for pretty cheap there. Even though I guess anybody on this forum is aware of cheaper alternatives. -
HS ending is a shame, but that's not the point of this thread. I guess we won't get somethign similar soon - there seems to be some rotation of themes going on over different series. Having said that, I would absolutely love more "horror" themed sets and minifigs. The seasonal sets for Halloween are a start, but they are one set max per year, and pretty small (still better than nothing!). Something bigger and/or more regular would be great. One can but hope... A set in black and white (and grey obviously) for Addams Family would be cool. How many shades of grey are in the current parts catalogue? With some creative use of those it could be a visually stunning piece - and that steamboat set for Mickey Mouse shows that the concept is not impossible to do.
-
Another German chiming in... Of the two options I definitely favour "Eisenpfote"/"Iron Paw" - it sounds both fierce and cute. It also just sounds better to me in German than the much more brutal "Stahlklaue".
-
Why? As an animal it makes sense in many different setting, something City related for example. It would fit well in a Christmas set of course, but not exclusively at all.
-
This is awesome! One question though: is there a secret exit somewhere? That would be all that is left for perfection...
-
Great work, this is a lovely display! The only thing I would change: add some more blue baseplates (and waves) in the front right. As it is it looks a bit unfinished to me.

LEGO Hidden Side 2020

Could be a Europe thing, but I saw most of Wave I stuff at heavy discounts in my local Smyth Toys yesterday. I think it has mostly to do with Wave I being indeed supplied in masses last year, and stores still having plenty of the sets around. -
I would absolutely love something like this. It would combine well with the old Monster Fighters builds as well as Hidden Side (as well as use the ghost parts made for HS), and could keep the fans of those lines happy. With only one set per year I also don't see TLG ever running out of good ideas for a Halloween Village. So all thumbs up for it from me! Do I believe it will actually happen? Not really - but I hope so. A man can dream, right?

As much as I love the WV line, a Halloween Village line would have me squeaking of joy like a little schoolgirl. A man can dream, right?

LEGO Hidden Side 2020

Dammit, Hidden Side ending already sure is a bummer. Ignoring all that silly interactivity/phone stuff those were some excellent sets. I'm kinda annoyed that the big castle is staying for so short a time. -
Awesome! Eerily close to the miniature, well done!
-
Arr, that would be kind of meh. On the other hand... ... despite not having a daughter I could live with a similar solution. To be fair: the Friends set usually are good builds, and roughly in minifig scale. So if the colours were halfway decent I would not see it as that bad.
