Clone OPatra

Seeing some of the LAN reviews, I've certainly warmed to the Great Hall set - I think there's no denying that it's actually quite big and therefore detailed looking from a distance, and would be fun to play around with, plus setting the Great Hall on its mountain is a cool effect. However, on principle, as a toy for kids I still think it's way too big and expensive. Let kids have a Great Hall set at an affordable-enough price for a wide variety of families, something the 2018 one certainly achieved.

LEGO Star Wars never performed as well in Germany, where it is outperformed by City. This was made public in the published annual reports. Star Wars as a brand has killed a lot of its own hype though, and it feels like LEGO Star Wars has more adult skewing sets than it once did, but there are still plenty of sets with kids being the target market. We've also seen with the wild success of the Harry Potter theme that there doesn't even need to be new media for children to engage with a property. Kids can watch all of Star Wars, including Clone Wars, on Disney+ after all.

It was introduced in the most recent Friends reboot, but has since also been used in grey for a statue in the museum modular (from memory). It's got a hole on top so you can accessorize fun-loving Karkaroff with all manor of things.

Jay's Brick Blog has them listed as June, as does JB Spielwaren, an actual retailer. Where have people seen these would be August releases?

I think they'll be exactly the same, both the new reddish orange. Compared against the orange on Johnny's (ugly) buggy, the red panda is redder.

Oh wow. With more pics of the ship, I just love it. Great to see they've crammed in interior where they could, and the building techniques will surely be fun to see. The Minifigures are just stunning too. So detailed, so many new prints, well chosen parts, and hilariously, not a major character in sight for a large set! I don't even feel compelled to complain that there only five because the set is just doing it for me! I never would've thought the two standout sets of a year for me would've been a Hagrid's Hut and a Durmstrang Ship.

The extra photos of the Potions class showing it closed up are quite cool - but dang that set seems way too expensive. It looks like $25, maybe $30 USD MAX. I also have to feel like, while the system is cool - at what cost? Are they going to do further sets with rock shells? Will they use this system for above ground rooms in the castle as well? Or, will these two sets really be the only ones with this type of compatibility, and future sets in "this" system be just standalone things like the Owlery. You can't see the interior when it's folded up and placed into the Great Hall set.

Pic is out! That's a lot of sails! I'm not into ships but I like it. Sure it's perhaps on the small side, but no action takes place on the ship or the carriage, so their size makes good sense to me.

I recall it also being a friction issue, that translucent arms wouldn't play well with a translucent torso, but that might have been with the old translucent formulation and not the newer one. They could absolutely come up with a decent solution for force ghosts. Personally I think the face print on trans heads don't tend to show up so well, so a light blue solid colour head, torso and hips with trans arms and legs could be better.

Totally agree and I popped into the City discussion to share a similar sentiment. I was ok with the balance for the Africa subtheme since those builds made enough sense for the terrain, but I was really hoping we'd see more jungly builds leaning into ruins and things like the last jungle subtheme. Johnny seems out of his element without much to actually explore!
