I've never seen those weapons before from Brickarms, are you sure they're from them and not another company?

It would likely be Omega as they would want to get all the new characters included.

Honestly, contact LEGO. Your order likely wont ship for a month at best and with them having just done the price change and such a drastic one at that they may be willing to help out.

I just did an order yesterday and compared what I paid then to what i'd pay today and it's extremely similar, maybe 2% higher. So while some stuff went up some stuff went down.

Yeah I was building that set a few days ago and had a blast from the past when I saw this. It's something they could recreate with current parts (4 of the 1x2x1 2/3 brick and a 1x4 plate) so the designer must have wanted to bring this back

I see the reason they went to 12 was so they could accommodate secondary series, like the Unikitty and Mario ones. We're likely not going to see a Mario series 3 for a bit and it'll be Vidiyo instead taking that spot.

No, thankfully they only cancelled one piece. 6306254, a hair piece from Series 20. Their logic was it wasn't meant for sale so what they have will be destroyed instead of sold which is not cool at all...

Got this email today for some of the CMF hair pieces that I had ordered. They had emailed me to tell me they were cancelled and I emailed to follow up.

The logic I have learnt to apply is the wave that ties in to a product launch will have basically everything non spoilery in it. So this Jan wave I expect no surprise characters or scenes from Mando. The summer wave however, that's when I expect to see some of those additional characters and scenes. Especially with LEGO sets leaking months ahead of time (we're almost 3 months away from the Feb launch) it can easily be the way stuff is "announced" and if the Feb mando set was say something from the final episode, well then huge spoiler. Just like how the Razorcrest was rushed in with The Child so they could get that out as soon as they could but late enough that it wouldn't spoil the show. However 3 months out from the summer wave means that all the episodes have aired and people are wanting Mando sets and have already bought the ones on the market. Then those sets won't be huge spoilers because the episodes have already aired. Also they may want to see how much something or someone appears for even future waves. Like Cobb Vanths speeder, if he's in a few episodes and he'll likely be in Season 3 then I could see a microfighter of his speeder ore being in a set but if he's a one episode appearance then they may not want to go through and make the prints for a microfighter figure and just choose something else.

Thankfully many of them were expensive parts so I wasn't interested in them in large quantities. Got a single tube though so that's nice.

Chima is a dead theme. So no

They did that. It was called Juniors. I prefer them being incorporated into each theme as it makes them more "normal" for those younger kids.

Yeah unfortunate but not unexpected, especially with covid production issues. However it would be nice if they said "1 month after release" or something which i'd find perfectly acceptable.

Not working.

I've seen some boxes have a single characters distribution out of whack. My DC series case had either 6 or 7 jokers.

Something to keep in mine for the longevity of the theme is because of how far in advance LEGO works yes they have the TV show ordered for a few seasons but they also have all of next years product already developed and are likely working on 2022 product now. So sales figures now may impact wider availability of the line but not likely new waves as those would be finalized.

However one thing to consider is all the sets are Overwatch 2 sets which got delayed as the game moved to 2021. However as Lego plans in advanced the sets were already made and moulds likely ordered, why not ship them in 2021 alongside the game. Distribution may be more limited but I know, even as someone who barely played the game, i'll be grabbing these.

Those video game companies are public companies, LEGO is a private company.

2018 went way over their parts budget that they borrowed some from Jurassic World. Some stuff you missed is the printed window in the big hogwarts castle the chain window in the great hall Candle Flame pumpkin All the stuff for figs And all the stuff that was likely made with HP in mind like lantern tiled roof dress piece Not to mention the giant amount of recolours of parts to accommodate the HP line which also draws from their budge as well as bringing older parts back into production

Lego stores build a minifigure.

Those are good choices but i'd nix R2 and C3-P0 as they aren't in the cantina and usually you don't get all the figs in the scenes, oh you want them, get the other tatooine sets like the landseppeder and obi wan hut kinda deal.

Just out of curiosity when calling in do you call the normal customer service line? If so then where do you go to add stuff to an order. I was going to submit one tomorrow morning and then call to see about adding some stuff that's not showing up yet.

One thing to note is previously we would typically see a large scale set as a TRU exclusive, maybe another one as a Walmart or Target exclusive . This is because the retailers would put in a larger order for a specific set only sold through them. This enabled riskier sets as the retailer would commit to a certain order. While this normally applied to smaller sets say $30-70 price range it has happened with larger sets too like the Jedi Starfighter with Hyperdrive Ring or the Rebel Combat Frigate. Sets that may have been too risky to do without the retail exclusivity. Now ever sine TRU went belly up we haven't seen those large retailer exclusive sets in a while other than Vader's Castle, which likely would have gone to TRU and not Amazon had TRU not gone belly up. Yes we have the Razrocrest going to Amazon but who knows what we'll see in the future and that seems like a quick turnaround due to the shows popularity so likely unscheduled.

You can make 1 at a time. So with the SW one you can make Maul, Vader, or Kylo Ren. And if you get 3x of the set you can make the Ultimate Vader.

I just found 75546 and 75547 at a local toy store. Didn't grab either and they didn't seem to interest me but was a surprise to see them in the wild.
