Gotta pace the leaks, lol... I'm sure it's out there. (Verrry interested in what color Lego choose for the V12 Vision, could they pull off a hypercar in Olive green?)

Wizarding World 2024 - Rumors & Discussion
Huigberts Builds replied to Clone OPatra's topic in LEGO Licensed
Looking at the flower witch in the movie, I kinda wished they had given us a recolour of the Fairy Godmother hood piece, that would've worked perfectly. Although I get why they didn't do that. -

Has there been any news of when the official reveal for the sets will happen? Maybe early next week? -

Snape looks great and he desperately needed some alterations after being more or less the same minifigure for so many years. Love that we're getting Pansy circa POA. Is the boy in the wheelchair supposed to be any particular character? -

Possibly. As in the Nightmare creatures set there is female ratchet joints in the cauldron. So might be the original hip piece inside there. -

Same here, this already beats the post-2021 Hogwarts system for me. The interiors for that system were extremely minimalistic which was off-putting. Looking forward to seeing more pictures of the Great Hall and Potions Classroom. -
LEGO Star Wars 2024 Set Discussion - READ FIRST POST!!!
Kaijumeister replied to MKJoshA's topic in LEGO Star Wars
Huh, Fives doesn’t have arm-printing in the video (can’t believe I’m even saying something like this). Perhaps the detail of the animation doesn’t necessarily reveal everything about these new minifigures… Also I completely agree the cheese slopes on the side of the X-Wing is a MUCH needed update. Certainly curious to see how the X-Wing vs. TIE Fighter set will look now. -
Marvel Superheroes 2024 - Rumors & Discussion

Does anybody know why Spider-Man 3 (the Raimi film) didn't get any Lego sets when the first two movies did? I saw that Mega Bloks made sets for Spider-Man 3 so did Lego's license expire? -
Good eye, certainly looks like it... That could be more of them on the leading points of the two raised hood shapes as well (where you have the 6091 curved-top brick in your sketch). Also, woo new yellow curve-slopes and fenders! Hope they snuck some 2x1 cut tiles on there as well. The G Wagen, eh... Guess I just don't like the Speed Champ SUV's. Fender builds look clever, could be fun, but that hood seems crazy tall/bulky.

Oh wow, we finally have the perfect Snape. I love him. Young Pansy Parkinson is also a nice edition. The Flower witch looks great. Although personally I think I might give her Madam Malkin's hat instead and use the beehive hairpiece in dark grey on Malkin. Idk, maybe not. The new wand pieces are also very interesting. It looks like one is designed specifically to look like the wands the heroes use and the other for the villains. As one looks a lot like Neville's Wand and the other, if recoulered, could work perfectly for both the boney hook wand Voldemort has as the Snake head wand Lucius has. - Yesterday

What is your favorite Technic Set and why?
Plumber replied to Lego Tom's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
You never forget your first time :-) Gotta be 850 (950) I opened on my seventh birthday, life changing. Have your clunky Meccano back dad and I no longer cared that my lil' bruv had chewed all the lugs on my Fischer Technik this was the future and the future was bright. (Yellow) 853 the following year just confirmed the delight and provided enough parts to fuel my imagination for years of MOCing until was old enough for paper round to finance more 'Technical Lego' (8846 tow truck deserves honourable mention for a small set PACKED with functions) The 8888 ideas book was almost as exciting as a new set, I remember delighting my Grandmother during her final months in hospital with the walking, nodding dog (she was the source of the birthday largess!) The truck suspension with springs from a pin, three 3651 axle and pin connectors and a no 6 axle made good use of the elastic bands from my hated orthodontic braces and still demonstrate how ingenuity gives so much more satisfaction than single use parts. And the programmable crane and pen trace shows just why Lego is best enjoyed without a smart phone! Am I showing my age?? -

That's why i'm waiting to see what it's all like before I decide. :-D Jumped into the previous system too quickly. Not making the same mistake again. -

Huigberts Builds replied to Clone OPatra's topic in LEGO Licensed
I was wondering, are we absolutely sure this is supposed to be professor Vector? Because other than the matching colours, she looks quite different than how she did om screen. Most notably ofcourse the reused hatpiece, which is a far departure from the more elegant one in the movies. But also the clothes don't have those horizontal lines (latest?) that were present in the movie and on her Lego HP Years 1-4 figure. Not to mention that her headpiece appears to be medium tan rather than light nougat if my eyes aren't mistaken. So I was thinking, could she be this unidentified Hogwarts employee instead (who appeared in both the first and the last movie). https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/harrypotter/images/e/e0/MCgeegeeHP1.png/revision/latest?cb=20100707114429 The hat looks a lot closer to what Lego used here. Not to mention it was lego themselves who used that one actress for Vector in their games. I believe she was just an unnamed extra before that. So lego can easily use other background characters and add names to them, if not retcon the ones they did before. -

Two new wand molds. I'm surprised, but it's nice to have wand options now. -

Pictures of the minifigs included in the Ollivander’s and potion classroom sets can be found in the usual place! Love the new Snape minifig (with arm printing!!) and that new flask piece! So cool to finally see a rounded one like that after it was teased all the way back in 2001 -
Just back from Target and Lego space merchandise put a dent in my wallet! They had a "Space" themed end cap with adjoining shelves on the sides. Along with the plushes, they also had the keychain lights in all the colors (red, pink, orange, blue). I took one of each leaving the back row. I was very tempted to buy the whole box! They only had one orange one (which I took), leaving two blues, a red an a pink. Lots of other Lego merch that really has nothing to do with "Space" other than they put the logo on it. Makes me think the "Space" theme this year is more of a marketing theme than a "real" Lego theme. They had minifig display cases in gray and blue: Lego storage containers in the shape of a 2x3 brick: And then water bottles, 2x2 brick carrying cases, and the empty hooks were labeled "backpacks": All of these items had the gray triangle with the space logo and the word "SPACE" printed on a card attached to the item. I did not see the space logo anywhere on the item itself. Didn't get a picture of it, but the series 26 CMF boxes where on two rows of hooks on one side of the display. I have not figured out how to scan the QR code to determine which minifig is in the box. I'm really only interested in the nurse with the pink space baby. Any suggestions?

Surely as a self proclaimed Batman super fan, you would like to see sets based more on the comics rather than old media? -

2025 Castle Theme [wishlist/speculation]
Lyichir replied to GreenhouseBricker's topic in LEGO Historic Themes
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. -

AD_Bricks replied to MKJoshA's topic in LEGO Star Wars
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!

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 -
Brushless motors in the lego world - general topic
Ryokeen replied to Krxlion's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
@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
