    2025 Castle Theme [wishlist/speculation]

    It's not really "marketing research", it's just a promotional video. Last year Lego did a similar video: But it's also not trolling—just social media marketing (not just to kids, but also to parents who might be amused by youngsters' takes on their childhood sets and maybe inspired to buy them new ones). And this year Lego DID bring back Lego space to some extent (which is probably why they got kids together to make another video themed entirely around that). If Lego does bring back castle I wouldn't be surprised to do a video like this on retro castle themes, even if the new Castle sets aren't purely remakes or reimaginings of old factions.

    Jurassic Properties 2024 - Rumors & Discussion

    Haha, fair enough guys, i had thought there was a teel Gallimimus in the franchise somewhere that i couldnt remember but its all good lol, and a teel Galli would look interesting, but i think it'd look even better with a sort of birch colour palette lol
  4. Love all of the new figure reveals! Super excited to see more from the Peridea set, too. Outside of this forum, the X-Wing seems to be getting very little attention as everybody seems too distracted by the figures to notice it. I screenshotted the best views of it immediately after the first time I watched the video for further studying, and it does look very good! I love the greebling on the back, and the cheese slopes around the nose should help it finally have that more accurate shaping.

    Ohhh the dual-molded parts you suggest sound really neat!
  6. I’m not above modifying parts that are already aftermarket to make something work. I’ve already been able to fit the diff cup into the wheel hub. I can post pictures when I get home from work. this is the part I got to fit with minimal modification. https://a.co/d/7XBGO4E
  7. @killerfrost I'm afraid that it won't work that way. The part i designed is the male part of a "cv" joint that is supposed to fit into 1:10 and 1:8 scale RC axles with the matching female part. And the female rc axle parts are 10mm in diameter with 6mm diameter space in it where the ballhead of my part fits in. That won't fit in the Zene parts as they have max 8mm of space

    Love all the new minifigs here! I’m a bit split on Ezra’s blue eyes tho. They usually reserve coloured eyes for alien characters, so it’s inconsistent to have Ezra be the only human character to have them in a looooooong time, but then again, his bright eyes are a key feature of his design

    2025 Castle Theme [wishlist/speculation]

    There is a video that included a marketing research - it shows that kids like old Space sets. AFOL Space folks speculated that Lego might has soemthing planned for Space in future. Or it’s simply a pure trolling. Honestly, I prefer “Year of Castle” and IWON’T take that video serioussly.
  10. Yeah I've hated them on every figure that's had them so far. Hera, Ahsoka, Barriss- all of them just look so weird and bad. I actually can't decide whether I prefer them or the old CW eyes.

    Hopefully all the blowback from the botch job last year means this year’s Death Star is an attractive set

    I mean, ‘picked over’ can be very different depending on who’s doing the picking over. You might have someone in your area who really wants an army of pink space babies (or maybe lady androids - the nice thing about the space nanny is that she’s got a very interesting design but nothing on her specifically designates a childcare purpose), but don’t give a flip about Ice Planet and robot penguins.

    Batman (DC Superheroes) 2024 - Rumors & Discussion

    Hey, did we ever figure out what that "Batman 8-in-1" set is supposed to be? I completely forgot about that until I saw it on a list at the bottom of an article about this new Batmobile.

    LEGO Speed Champions 2024 rumors/speculation

    If I'm not mistaken, the hood should be openable this time. Or, at least easy to modify to make it openable. Update: I think I see a new part - 1x1 slope, not the inclined "cheese" but its curved version. It seems to be presented on the front bumper (under black "air intake" stickers) and where the bonnet rear end passes to curved sides (these entries seems to have stickers too - black stripes).

    I'm sorry to hear that, but thank you for mentioning it. It makes me feel less taken advantage of as a Harry Potter fan.

    2024 Space sets

    Speaking of "not really Lego" merch, the other day I saw a photo of some plushes from Target. Orange seems to have ALSO joined the ranks of plush Classic Space minifigures, but what I found even more charming was the plush of one of the new aliens from the City space sets! I already thought those were cute as heck so seeing it turned into a cuddly plush is amazing! EDIT: On a different note, the other day when we were discussing the new space parts from Build-a-Mini, I mentioned that the main thing I thought would improve the jumpsuit-style torso would be if one or both arms were reddish orange (matching the right side of the torso print and giving it slightly more of a Futuron feel). Unfortunately, reddish orange minifigure arms didn't exist... but today I learned they soon will, since one of the newly revealed Animal Crossing figs has arms, hips, and mid-length legs in that color! Still no standard-length legs or hands (so you can't quite go full Futuron with it), but still a nice development!
  20. It can’t be a conspiracy theory if it ain’t a long shot :) we can only dream, I can only cling to Andor being aware of what a Jedi is so he’s either met one or knows someone who as met one. I’m clutching at straws with this

    If you are interested in WHAT an actual LEGO D&D game might look like, I happen to be running my own HOMEBREW campaign as we speak. For the sake of the videos, I cut out most of the "behind the scenes" D&D talk. I think this series can help LEGO fans kinda see what D&D is all about. Thanks for watching.

    LEGO Star Wars 2024 Set Discussion - READ FIRST POST!!!

    I can finally rest... let the sun rise on a grateful universe. Lego Cal Kestis is real. This is interesting. I think I'm ok with the tradeoff of the poncho for BD, though I would have liked some arm printing. I want to preface this by saying that this video has absolutely no bearing on whether or not Cal is in season two. There's no way the creators would know. Actually, it's not happening either way. I was going to say there was a chance- Cal works with Saw between 15 and 10 BBY- but Andor is taking place at the same time as Rebels. Cal's already left Saw's group by now and is on Tanalorr. While he'll assumably return to the known galaxy to cap off the trilogy, I can't imagine they would spoil what he's up to in Andor. That said, I remain absolutely on the copium train that the second the trilogy ends, Cal begins appearing in the Ahsoka/Mando corner of the universe, helping their escapades in the New Beyond. Yeah, I'd have liked arm printing or a poncho. If he's got a way to mount BD on his back, I'm ok with the no poncho, but I think the arm printing really should have been there, especially considering the others. Nien and Malak get new molds, Fives gets a cloth element and arm printing, Saw gets the armor and cloth, etc. He comes in the Desert Skiff set. Nien looks good, this is pretty much how everyone expected he would look, I think, so not surprising, but still good. I actually like Ezra's force eyes, though I may be projecting my own want for Perida to have a heavy connection to the force (hence why Sabine was able to use it there), and Ezra spending so much time on it to have made him so powerful. Young Leia is fine but still an absurd choice for a figure, and I fully expect her set to crash and burn. Putting literally any other character into the creature set would have been a great way to get people who don't generally buy those to pick it up, so while I'm grateful as a consumer that lego didn't try and shove a super popular character into a set most people view as less desirable (I suppose it's possible it turns out to be great, but these creature sets normally don't do too well), I'm a little surprised they put what is undoubtably the least popular anniversary fig into that set. Also, that Yavin Temple at the end is beautiful. Shame we aren't getting a Yavin MBS anytime soon.

    Eh, I don't see anything out of the normal for Ninjago in that wave. Is there a set I'm not seeing that has an actual medieval castle?
