I still think that any Castle type theme that happens while Nexo Knights is ongoing will not be based on medieval Europe. We may have to wait for Elves to end its run to get anything that comes close to Fantasy Era. A theme based on ancient fables may be the best possible outcome. There is a lot that could be done: Jason and the Argonauts, the Labors of Herakles, the Epic of Gilgamesh, and Beowulf are just some of the possibilities. Each of those could give us at least five sets, possibly up to twelve for the Labors of Herakles. Herakles would even get reused in Jason and the Argonauts, as he was known to be on at least part of the voyage.

The parallel between standard and licensed CMFs is inexact. Standard CMF costs, unlike regular sets, also include cost coverage for the Minifigures Online game. That is why standard and licensed CMFs cost the same. I expect this set to be priced in one of the upper price points already established, possibly somewhere near the 76052 Batman Classic TV Series - Batcave. The broader spectrum of appeal, including non-FOLs, should be similar.

Nightblood and Darkstar are resting their instruments on this day. They went to the beach before high tide, drew the late Prince's symbol in the sand and watched the tide wash it away. Back in Bardo proper, Darkstar sang something about starfish and coffee while Nightblood haggled with a merchant over a large bolt of purple cloth.

Voice actors? Which actor is the minifig Norville "Shaggy" Rogers supposed to represent? Is it the late Casey Kasem, Matthew Lillard, or one of the other various actors who have done voice talent for the character? I think TLG considers him Matthew Lillard, given that he did the voice for Lego Scooby-Doo!: Haunted Hollywood. Casey Kasem invented the voice in 1970, though. He last voiced the character in 2009, and didn't live to see "Shaggy" in Lego. I may have to get two, and give one different hair. I can give the Casey Kasem version the Bilbo Baggins hair.

We have four cats. The youngest, Bandit, had a habit of drowning moles he caught in their water dish. We replaced the dish with a different type, and he hasn't done so since.

I think the set version of Mickey could have him in his tuxedo, possibly with a top hat. Minnie's description seems like her outfit from the Thanksgiving Day parade, which made me think of it. The Walt and Mickey statue could be a single exclusive mold, if it gets included. Train? Come on, the Monorail! If it were to happen, which is exceedingly unlikely. A future Disney D2C set could be Downtown Disney, like that town set from a few years ago. All speculation at this point.

Cinderella's Castle at Walt Disney World is iconic for so many reasons. Sleeping Beauty's Castle at Disneyland isn't for other reasons. Disneyland is the older attraction, but in the beginning it was a failure. A Disney Parks' Cinderella character would be fine, but remember that the character is represented by multiple actresses across different parks. The character inclusion wouldn't be seen as representative of the movie character. For that matter, I think the whole Disney CMF line is intended to be park characters. The fact that the non-human(oid) characters don't have standard fig heads under masks is probably due to the Disney Parks' policy about preserving the illusion. Donald and Daisy not having orange legs and webbed feet add to this supposition. Cinderella can be as easily done as Tinkerbell. The recent CMF Queen's dress mold has been repeatedly suggested for her. I'm also betting on this set being available at all Disney parks worldwide.
