Marvel Superheroes 2022 - Rumors & Discussion
BrickBob Studpants replied to Captain Nemo's topic in LEGO Licensed
Thanks Still can‘t get over that, I mean Thor is obviously a name, not a title Sure, Thor has an alias in the comics and „Thor“ serves as his superhero moniker, but it’s still his actual birthname too I can imagine them poking fun at that in the movie, seems right up Waititi‘s alley -

Prominent? It appears in a single scene and has less than a minute of screentime Doesn‘t exactly scream „ultimate set material“, does it Not a bad idea overall, but how on Earth would you display something like that -

I’m pretty surprised they already reveal that set, so it’s released late April I assume? Who else do we expect to show up in that set? Korg & Valkyrie? -

I’d take a $470 Quidditch Pitch set as a personal insult “What could be the thing that represents the magic of HP so well it deserves to have the largest HP set ever be based on it?” “I know, the pointless filler ball game!” Yeah, Quidditch ain’t my thing. I don’t mind sets like the ones we got in 2010 or 2018, but please keep it far away from any D2C sets To me, a $470 Quidditch set would be equivalent to a $1000 Star Wars set based on Dejarik -
Indiana Jones 2023 - Rumors & Discussion
BrickBob Studpants replied to Pulp Detective's topic in LEGO Licensed
PotC was brand new in 2011 and had $80 and $120 sets in its first wave, and so did other new themes. Avatar II can’t be ruled out purely based on that Promobricks mused that when the info first dropped. BriQ Foundation aren’t leakers themselves as far as I know -

BrickBob Studpants replied to Momotof's topic in LEGO Historic Themes
Two of the sets are $40 and $60 respectively, doesn’t sound like potential 18+ sets to me Besides, we‘ve never had a full wave of 18+ sets for any theme so far While I personally think Coconut is Indy based on what the leakers have said, Avatar II can’t be ruled out. Seems like a pretty normal price range to me -

Coconut is most likely Indy I don't see why the prices should factor in -

I'm really conflicted about the MoM's minifig selection, the more I think about it. There are three options in my mind: It's purely based on OotP: the "Dementors" are Death Eaters, "Lucius" really is Lucius, Umbridge is in her Wizengamot attire and the mystery figure is Tonks It's purely based on DH: the dementors really are just that, "Lucius" is Yaxley, Umbridge is her DH version (perhaps with printed locket) and the mystery figure could be Scabior or Thicknesse It's a mix of both I have no idea which is preferable. What I want the most are Tonks, Death Eaters, and Yaxley, but those rule each other out -

So more evidence it's based on OotP Hope we get more details soon! The minifigs probably won't leak for another month, so this will do -

BrickBob Studpants replied to Clone OPatra's topic in LEGO Licensed
Well, what is it then, if the probability is 70%? Buildable objects? We’ve just had those. Microscale build? Nothing iconic enough left. A Hogwarts add-on is pointless considering what’s left is nowhere near as recognisable as what the 2018 set included Brick-built character/creature? The most important human character (Harry) and most iconic creature (Hedwig) already got that treatment last year. Vehicle? Nothing except HE justifies that pricetag, even a Ford Anglia would be a third of that price at max Minifig-scale? Makes the most sense, and the most obvious choice in this category is a DA expansion There aren’t any other categories. It has to be an object, a character, a creature, a vehicle, a microscale build, or a minifig-scaled one. Or do you suggest it’s a physical manifestation of a fuzzy metaphysical concept straight from the hyperuranion? -

I hadn‘t even thought about which movie Dumbledore‘s office could be based on! OotP would make a lot of sense for multiple reasons: OotP is the only film pre-DH without its own Hogwarts expansion yet Cho‘s presence (even though it could be the same situation as with Luna in the CoS last year, as others have pointed out) A rerelease of Gambledore in his blue robes is overdue. This version is still exclusive to CMF S1 As others have said, the three professors included would make a lot of sense, and OotP has many Filch scenes. How about a disgusting alternate facial expression after eating his gift? -

I think the previous list had 76407 and 76408 both labelled as „playsets“ So what was this Dobby business about? Don‘t tell me the D2C is actually a statue of him or something -

Mads Mikkelsen + Grindelwald = Grikkelsen Not the best pun out there, but better than Madselwald, Grindelsen or whatever -

They’ll probably release a Brickheadz two-pack with Youngledore and Grikkelsen and call it a day -

I think that goes without saying. You can‘t have a character literally titled „the god butcher” in your movie and NOT have him slay some gods, and seeing how we’re all out of Norse gods… Didn’t know that he spilled the beans himself -

Disagreed. Finally some redemption for that chicken cosplaying as a horntail from 2019! -

In their video, promobricks have said there is a sort of side module that COULD represent the hall of prophecies, but they're not certain about it and wouldn't vouch for it Edit: It says so in the descriptions as well, whoops -

Wouldn't be the first time they mix elements from multiple films in the same set -

Maybe the brick-built Dobby is actually a Brickheadz set? -

Usually, a lack of new characters would bother me too, but OotP is my favourite of the films so all is forgiven -

How can you claim they are "messy" and "vile" when we don't even have pictures yet?
