LEGO Star Wars 2022 Set Discussion - READ FIRST POST!!!
GlacierPhoenix replied to MKJoshA's topic in LEGO Star Wars
Yes but you may be able to get an Omeeega in season 2 outfits. She'll likely show up again just a different version of the fig. -
Why Lego doesn't standardize their product box?
GlacierPhoenix replied to ks6349's topic in General LEGO Discussion
Actually yes. I got to listen in to a talk by the head of LEGO packaging at a LEGO Convention and this is the answer they gave to the question. -

If it has punch holes it's packed by a machine. If it has taped seals it's packed by a person. That's why sometimes you'll see the same set having both box types. -
Wizarding World 2022 - Rumors & Discussion
GlacierPhoenix replied to Clone OPatra's topic in LEGO Licensed
Alas no Platform 9 3/4 reveal at LEGO Con. Was sure they were going to announce it at the platform in the studio. -

Yes, well they are quite active in it at least. -
Wizarding World 2022 - Rumors & Discussion
GlacierPhoenix replied to Clone OPatra's topic in LEGO Licensed
Not sure if anyone else has thought this but looking at the new Jurassic world sets there's one character, Rainn Delacourt, who looks like they would make a great Scabior. So while we may not be getting Deathly Hallows sets we at least can get a fig that works in it. -
Hogwarts Castle MOC, Harry Potter (Work in Progress)
GlacierPhoenix replied to Uniqueorn's topic in LEGO Licensed
Been watching the last few and loved the latest update the roof work looks great, spectacular work on the build. Do you have any other way to follow along with the build or just the youtube videos? -
Marvel Superheroes 2021 - Rumors & Discussion
GlacierPhoenix replied to Captain Nemo's topic in LEGO Licensed
All LEGO products are tested, the Stuntz was an issue with the North American production line, something that would not have been caught in playtesting since those would be European parts. -

Anything thing to consider is yes we're debating the price of a single mold. However for a single element you're likely not just looking at one mold you're looking at a few of them at each of their factories. The reason CMFs were able to do so many molds was because they were out of a single factory and were short productions runs so they didn't need to be the bestst longest lasting material. So you could blitz through them in a week and never mold them again. If LEGO only had a single mold going of say a characters piece or a unique windscreen if that mold goes down you're looking at millions in lost sales. -

I was thinking it would be Luke's Landspeeder, and Obi-Wan's Hut but the Duel on Mustafar is also a solid extra. -
Harry Potter 2021 - Rumors & Discussion

No idea but I doubt they'll be talking about it much in the Harry Potter thread. -

That element has been refreshed so it should likely be back sooner or later. -

I think it comes down to storage and quantity. With online PAB it comes from the USA (At least in NA) so those parts are stored there. Also since there's a lower selection of parts it wouldn't surprise me if they had them in much higher quantities than what B&P offers. -
Brickfair Virginia. And yeah I agree CAC weapons are fine... just fine. You can tell they've been out for a long time and some of them show that age.

They actually just started selling them at BFVA. Eclipsegrafx have some of them for sale. I'd be all over them but I just got a boatload of e-11's and DC-15s from Republic Bricks in their bulk weapon offering so now all my imperial troopers and clones are properly outfitted.

Harry Potter 2021 - Rumors & Discussion
GlacierPhoenix replied to Captain Nemo's topic in LEGO Licensed
That's actually the second use of it after showing in up in TLM2 CMF's -
With stores canceling orders now i'm sure Series 2 of bandmates is already in production. Sets are packaged 1-2 months ahead of release and that's not including the lead time to produce the parts Distribution may be more limited, S@H and LEGO Stores for example but i'm sure they'll still show up. I really hope they do, they're the only Vidiyo products I had any interest in purchasing.

My understanding is that they originally planned to announced the Season 7 Clone Wars sets at LEGO CON however when they were accidently announced by LEGO they decided to officially announce those but hold the Mando ones for LEGO CON -

I think it's also a space issue where a printed arms version and a non printed arms version of a fig would have two element ID's for the torsos, take up twice the room and double the costs. By having all the season 2 Mandos be the same, and have arm printing, they're actually reducing costs, from a certain point of view. But yeah hopefully they start moving forward on it with other characters that will have multi set / multi year lives. And the Boba is one that matches both. -

I'd have said the same but the only 2 Disney + Marvel sets are based on "What If?" so that gives me hope for Visions -

Also the financial situations different now too. Ahead of Mandos launch no one knew if Disney+ would be as popular as it ended up being. If people would love Mando as much as they do, and building on that who would love Mando. Now Disney+ has 100m+ subscribers, the Star Wars shows print money and the merch is so strong that there's no reason they won't go all in on the next live action Star Wars show. We're finally seeing it now with all the Mando season 2 sets (finally) -

Would you be able to post the pricing for these as i'm curious on how much some of them cost. -

Ouch that's an expensive hair piece but I guess it's much cheaper than the alternatives, I really need a do a phone in order one day and get all these good ones that aren't online. Do you just give them the element ID and quantity you want? How do you find out the price of them ahead of time. -
Love it. Much more cleaner parts compared to the previous version. It's amazing how many curves they have have done in the last few years.

Yes they are shipped from Denmark. You'll have to add something to get the free shipping threshold, B&P won't count towards it directly on its own but takes you up there. Yes they will be shipped on their own and not with yournormal orders It can take a while, don't expect them any time soon.
