Well, they used new moulds for all the pieces (aside from the One Ring - as that one is still in use). Why would they do it if the old ones were around?
-
I expect the official info sometime in may. The survey leak had it at 83 cm tall, 44 cm wide and 36 cm deep. But that could have changed in the meantime.
-
Exactly how I feel - they're good efforts, but not something I'd want to get. It was this Having a single set in 2025 in the vein of Rivendell/Barad Dur (or even a Brickhead) would be enough to fulfill it.
-
Any of those MOCs are in a sensible scale and not using a ridiculous number of pieces? The ones I saw generally were either in a very weird scale or would be a set way above a 1000$ price point...

You're kinda ignoring just how limited gwps and such can be. The DnD Mimic went out pretty fast, I'm fully expecting this will be gone at least as quickly, if not faster. Meaning you have to be able to get the set basically right after it appears in the store, or you risk missing out and having to pay through the nose on the secondary market. The DnD set dropped at 1 am (in my area anyway), which isn't exactly a great time for a lot of people... No, we don't know what it will be.

Honestly I'd prefer if it wasn't LotR related, and Barad-Dur got a Brickhead gwp. Would mean I can wait a bit and see if it follows the route Rivendell went, getting some nice discounts :D
-
Brick Clicker mentioned on Discord that an 18+ gwp is scheduled for June 1 st. Being related to Barad-Dur seems likely (just wait for it to be the Witch King on a (brick-built) fell beast).

2025 Castle Theme [wishlist/speculation]
Cyprinus replied to GreenhouseBricker's topic in LEGO Historic Themes
It probably does (even if I forgot about it), but you specified Lion Knights/Black Falcons getting yearly sets, and it certainly isn't a set related to either ;P -

That is a highly personal opinion entering "no true Scotsman" territory. Sorry, meant 2023. -
2025 Castle Theme [wishlist/speculation]
Cyprinus replied to GreenhouseBricker's topic in LEGO Historic Themes
This seems like splitting hair - we may not be having an official subtheme, but the various sets in the City and Friends lines clearly form a cohesive whole. They may not be under a subtheme, sure, but I'd argue we should be looking at more than just that. Because if we go "these are city sets, they don't count as Space, it would mean we didn't get a Castle set in quite a while, since they're under the Icons, Ideas or Creator 3-in-1 umbrellas. What set did either get in 2022? -
I saw it pop up in a few videos, always with no source or reason given. Well, almost always - one guy claimed they moved it to not conflict with Rivendell. As little sense as that does make...
-
There are also some new Brickheadz coming - Gimli and Legolas IIRC.

A displacer beast - the set features a brick-built one (the dark thing with tentacles). Think of a dark-furred, six-legged panther with tentacles and you kinda know what it should look like ;) -
Latest impact of other themes on historic themes
Cyprinus replied to Wardancer's topic in LEGO Historic Themes
They're a preliminary render. Brick Clicker and Clay (running Brick Tap) both said that is the reason they look how they look. But they're legit.
