Portal Out

This is gonna sound weird, but did anyone briefly see a couple super low quality images of the sanctum last night? I was working a bit late and checked the usual place just past midnight (west coast of the United States time) and there were a couple accounts posting the same image with a few super crappy shots of the sanctum, but this morning they're gone and nobody is talking about them.

Check out right above the stones, there's a pearl gold recolor of the messenger bag piece sort of wedged there

Looks great, I’m glad it’s not just a recolor of the Infinity Gauntlet. There are definitely some neat techniques that set the two apart. So I guess this means a reveal for the Infinity Saga Collection is imminent then too?

A new Iron Man helmet mold is actually pretty interesting. Honestly between the two molds we have, they've basically covered all their bases unless they're making it for one of the weird one-off suits like the Igor.

Mario movie got pushed back, curious to see what this means for any tie-in sets.

Geeze that’s almost twice as many pieces as the NES, I wonder what it could be. Every time a new wave of rumors starts circulating I tell myself not to get too hyped, but that would rock and I might have already gotten my hopes up already

I honestly don’t really care about Overwatch anymore, but I genuinely hope we end up seeing these sets just because of the mythical status they’ve gained in the almost 3 years since they first started being rumored. I know TLG checks in on theses forums from time to time so if you’re reading this Lego, release the sets. It’d be funny.

A UPC for set 71412 just popped up for $39.99 and a fall release date. Seems weird that they’d hold back on revealing a single set like that unless it was something special and wasn’t associated with the rest of the wave. The numbering is a bit weird too, since it comes numerically after the D2C (which is 71412). Did anything ever become of that minifigure pack rumor or did it just turn out to be hoax?

Robots/mechs like the villains have in Avatar are Lego's bread and butter, I doubt they could resist lol

Oh neat, does this confirm any other rumors by proxy? Who was the first one to leak this Avatar theme, I can't remember

Looks great! I got my hopes up for a Jaws set a while back when TLG ran that brickheadz poll and Jaws was one of the options, but now that it doesn't seem like we're getting anything from them officially, I'm really rooting for this to make it to 10k!

I think this is close to a perfect set aside from the shoe printing on the Marty minifigure. I wonder if the original intention was for him to have dual molded legs, but for whatever reason they decided to go with normal ones midway through the process and forgot to add the additional white printing to the front? That’s the only explanation I can think of, because it looks pretty incomplete. But honestly this is just nitpicking in what’s essentially a bonus. Still an amazing set.

I’ve never bought any of the course building sets aside from a few of the character packs, but I seriously can’t pass up that Goomba boot. I’m sold.

Lol happy to hear it

I might be eating my words come fall, but I really have a hard time imagining them releasing three modular marvel buildings so close together. The only guess that I have that someone else hasn’t said already is a big Iron Man bust. He’s kind of been Lego’s cash cow lately (all those Hulkbusters, mechs, and hall of armors), plus a life size version of his helmet and upper torso with the arc-reactor would fit snugly into that ~$500 range.
