Harry Potter 2021 - Rumors & Discussion
BrickBob Studpants replied to Captain Nemo's topic in LEGO Licensed
Well, **** So this means the “reveal season” (?) is basically already over for me because I don’t really care about the non-licensed themes. I’ll go hibernate, wake me up when the March stuff gets revealed Edit: This also explains the lack of minifig leaks. Maybe we get lucky and some of them leak in December? -

Oh. I thought you were talking about the 2022 stuff And I agree with the consensus so far, the new boxart is a welcome change. While I appreciate the previous one, it’s about time for an update -

The new Chewbacca looks nice, but the snow printing is a bit too subtle for my liking And the probe droid looks fantastic This puts all the previous ones to shame -

Not sure what you’re getting at here, as the only sets we’re going to see today are the Hoth AT-ST and the Snowtrooper Battlepack At least judging by the instructions they’ve added to the database -

Hehe, the good ol’ days when Marvel and DC shared the same threads How did we survive that for as long as we did? -

Wink.leaks on IG claims that Chewy gets “snow gear”, which presumably means some snow printing on his fur At least there’s that I wish they’d also reveal the accessory packs today, but not very likely considering the Marvel one hasn’t been among yesterday’s reveals either -
Marvel Superheroes 2021 - Rumors & Discussion
BrickBob Studpants replied to Captain Nemo's topic in LEGO Licensed
So we have two unknown Superheroes sets right now, and the initial rumour was that there’d be two additional ones based on NWH… Cautiously optimistic here -
DC Superheroes 2021 - Rumors & Discussion
BrickBob Studpants replied to Captain Nemo's topic in LEGO Licensed
A single $100 DC set in a sea of Marvel releases does not seem likely I’m afraid And if it is, you’d better expect a buildable batarang or something like that No point in setting yourselves up for disappointment -

I wish they revealed sets from multiple themes each day. Some of the waves are so laughably small it’s like an appetiser… to an appetiser Case in point: where’s the Razor Crest microfighter? I know it’s not much, but if the waves already are as puny as they are, they could at least reveal all of the sets that are part of them -

At least it’s better than the 2012 CBS figure -
Harry Potter 2021 - Rumors & Discussion
BrickBob Studpants replied to Captain Nemo's topic in LEGO Licensed
Some of the Marvel sets have just been revealed, so it can’t take too long before we get to see the HP stuff …if the January release date is actually correct, that is. -
Marvel Superheroes 2021 - Rumors & Discussion
BrickBob Studpants replied to Captain Nemo's topic in LEGO Licensed
Huh, must’ve missed that one While the mechs aren’t particularly exciting, the minifigs are decent. Nice to see that T’Challa gets a face print as well plus the same hairpiece from the CMF series. Iron Man is also new at least And branding the Wolverine mech under “Wolverine” rather than “X-Men” is pretty hilarious. Reminds me of the Mii costumes in Smash that don’t mention the series they’re from -
Marvel Superheroes 2021 - Rumors & Discussion
BrickBob Studpants replied to Captain Nemo's topic in LEGO Licensed
I don’t think it is. We haven’t even seen Wong’s and America Chavez’s costumes yet (right?), so it would be too soon for a reveal I think, which would happen soon if it were still a January release It’s a bit sad honestly when the only potentially interesting minifigs are from 4+ sets (Rhino and the genderbent Doc Ock). The upcoming movie-based sets will surely be more intriguing, but too bad we’ll have to wait quite a bit for those. The January wave would be infinitely better if those rumoured NWH sets were a part of it, but I guess we have to consider ourselves lucky if they exist at all -

BrickBob Studpants replied to Captain Nemo's topic in LEGO Licensed
Usually, I’d be excited by new set reveals, but the upcoming slate is just so mind-numbingly BORING across the board, not only for this theme. I’m more looking forward to 2HY set rumours -
Harry Potter 2021 - Rumors & Discussion
BrickBob Studpants replied to Captain Nemo's topic in LEGO Licensed
Good question. So far, only three minifigs have leaked in total across all themes (Hoth Scout Trooper, Monkie Kid henchman guy, and now Sonic). Wouldn't be surprised in the slightest if the sets get officially revealed before we see even a single HP minifig leak -

Agatha gets her own show, so let’s hope we get a minifig of hers that way -

BrickBob Studpants replied to MKJoshA's topic in LEGO Star Wars
I think the Landspeeder is iconic enough to deserve a UCS set. Wouldn’t have been my first (or second, or third) choice, but at least it’s got enough screentime to justify it, as has been pointed out in the thread Yes, it’s basically the SW equivalent to a Creator Expert car -
Harry Potter 2021 - Rumors & Discussion
BrickBob Studpants replied to Captain Nemo's topic in LEGO Licensed
We did, namely the CMF variant Since CMF prints are no longer exclusive to them, I expect that faceprint to show up for future minifigs of hers as well I think it’s easily the best faceprint we have for her thus far. People seem to like the 2010 one, but both expressions are too exaggerated for my liking and the scared one is only appropriate for one scene really This one captures Carter’s portrayal far better IMO -

The characters seen in the trailer The Twi'lek for instance is played by Jennifer Beals, so I assume it's not just a bit part. It's a side build, and thus not really relevant for the minifig discussion Might as well be a mech, because it's sure gonna look like one -

BrickBob Studpants replied to MKJoshA's topic in LEGO Star Wars
Hm, now that I think about it, I wonder why the rumour just says “bounty hunters”. If they were recognisable characters, even the one I’ve mentioned in my previous post, the leaker surely would have named them, no? And if not, how can they be sure they actually are bounty hunters as opposed to mercenaries, assassins, gang members, Jabba’s former captains, or other random goons? Or maybe that’s what it actually says on the box, another Knights of Ren situation In that case, they’re probably just some randos, like that human gunman that is briefly seen in the teaser. Better than nothing I guess -

That mould has been destroyed ages ago though While the helmet was decent enough for the time it was released, I expect A LOT better twenty years later -
Super Mario 2021 - Rumors & Discussion
BrickBob Studpants replied to Captain Nemo's topic in LEGO Licensed
We don’t even have the complete 1HY set lists yet and we’re already getting 2HY lists? Huh. I wonder if they’re actually based on the upcoming film, which would be pretty impressive considering it’s 13 months away
