Couldn't find a topic specifically for this set so might as well create one. Take it as a grain of salt but there is a leak that will release soon to celebrate its 40th anniversary from a set that is based on

Link below: https://brickset.com/article/51499/brand-new-theme-revealed-brick-sketches! This idea was made by an AFOL now a LEGO designer Chris McVeigh. Personally, these will look great on display.

I'm very surprised no one, not even an AFOL or a LEGO youtuber is talking about this. A touchy subject you may say, but this is very important. COVID-19 not only affects people around the world but it will affect businesses as well. Most of the international stores that surrounds mainland china are closed and I'm pretty sure LEGO is one of them. LINK: https://www.nytimes.com/2020/02/07/business/coronavirus-business-impact.html LEGO has said that they are planning to bring more consumers from china, mostly children, but during the epidemic, I'm not sure how this plan would go well. So I'm curious, please do share and debate as to how would LEGO do something to handle the situation. Will it affect their sales drastically or will it just be a small margin and they make a backup plan to deal with the loss?

Leaks have shown the new Gift with Purchase. For those who were born in the 90's, It is a Hot Rod influenced from a Model Team set 5541 Blue Fury which its in my childhood when I build and display it in my father's office. 5541

You may need to check in instagram, its already there.

I already made a topic about the GWP. Link here: https://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?/forums/topic/177992-new-lego-gwp-hot-rod/&tab=comments#comment-3246730 Also, I want to add this as well. 10277 Crocodile Locomotive - 1271 pieces - 99.99 dollars/euros This came from the source in instagram. No pics yet though so take that info for a grain of salt

That's exactly what I was thinking. If it succeeds, then good for LEGO to continue in 2021. If it flops then at least it had some good sets that surprised us. In regards to COVID-19 in China, some of the stores are re-opening and most if not all of their LEGO stores there are still open so there is a possible chance that it will succeed.

There all very expensive but I digress since I'm aiming for only one set.(Food Truck). Also I'm not sure if someone pointed this out before but when I saw pigsy, he has medium short legs that was introduced in harry potter line.

IT HAS BEEN REVEALED: https://brickset.com/article/51362/this-year-s-fairground-set-revealed! There are hidden references to other classic themes I love as well. I also love how LEGO named him Samuel Von Barron, a combination of his two names, Baron Von Barron and Sam Sinister.

I check more pics from the leak and found out some references from adventurers. I have a feeling that this is not just a haunted house. Its a haunted house owned by the notorious villain, Baron von Barron who keeps changing names as years go by.

"I LOVE IT" is what I'm about to say but its too early to tell since its a leak. Lets wait for the official pictures before I judge.

Leaks have shown the poster of the Skywalker Saga game. There could be a hint of something from the picture from the summer sets though. Of course AT-AT is present so that's no surprise but other hints like Rey and her lightsaber. Could it possibly be that she is carrying it from the set Night Buzzard?

I have mixed feelings with the AT-AT. On one hand, I love how they incorporate the turret and the speeder bike to fit inside the walker as it reminds me back on the 2003 one. The pilots not only fit one but two seats at the front and veers at the back. That's a level of detail right there in the movie. The other. the build of the body is too blocky, the build of the legs are a lackluster and its $160? I don't see this for $160. I would prefer this to be $110. Overall, not bad but needs improvement with the look of the walker.

How did I overlooked on that one from Lego City? To be honest. I wasn't invested in the city space theme as I would prefer traditional space and Creator(to me) is the theme to do it.

I would definitely love a minidoll space theme. LEGO already made Sweet Mayhem and she may be the first step towards it. I would like to see different yet unique races as well.

I don't know about that but I think its better to have them make houses, cabins or modular buildings instead. We have a lot of police to cover in LEGO City. Then again. They did it with the Fire brigade from the winter village fire station so why not a winter village police station

Makes sense in terms of business practices from LEGO but I would love at least to have the best of both worlds. A type of luxurious interior with realistic proportions and features to go along. Thankfully we have a specific theme for that which is the Creator Expert but time will tell if our wishes fulfill.

What I'm curious with the Rover is the wheels. They remind me of those wheels from older space themes.

The images don't lie. Check it out: Friends is a luxurious First class. https://www.promobricks.de/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/lego-friends-summer-2020-41429-0002.jpg Compare to the City one, its a standard Economy class. https://www.promobricks.de/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/lego-city-summer-2020-flughafen-60262-0002.jpg

You know, I recently check the summer wave of Friends with High Quality pictures about the next wave, and I realized something. The City passenger plane does not have a compartment under the roof to store their luggage. Sure they have it but it only stands there and no way to store it safely. Now I'm even more disappointed with the airport set . I'm sorry but after seeing the other sets, I just don't have the guts to buy it. Notify me if there are people pack and D2C city sets. Hopefully these won't dissapoint.

That's the good thing with the friends plane that I like about. That to me is the highlight of this set. It beats the city passenger plane in comparison.

Yeah, don't expect LEGO to have minifigures in this theme like what happened to Super Mario. Wishful thinking? Yes, but only time will tell.

White house is fine at all but what I'm interested is the change of the box art. Architecture logo is now at the bottom left instead of top left and is smaller than the predecessor so it can focus on the white house itself. Also the age range has bumped up to 18+ so there is a possibility that future architecture sets will be like this.

Exactly. He looks like one. Updated to have the cutesy look and I love it. https://www.instagram.com/p/B_dhzAlpjIt/

Well its based of season 1 so it makes sense.
