LEGO Star Wars 2022 Set Discussion - READ FIRST POST!!!
BrickBob Studpants replied to MKJoshA's topic in LEGO Star Wars
They don’t mention their source anywhere, but it being a catalogue seems fairly likely to me. At least it would explain why they’re not sure about certain details (e.g. whether there’s a new leg-skirt combo piece included in one of the HP sets or not) -
DC Superheroes 2021 - Rumors & Discussion
BrickBob Studpants replied to Captain Nemo's topic in LEGO Licensed
They are, that’s what it says on s@h I really like the look of these sets and the new faceprints we’re getting Gordon’s is particularly spot-on and definitely ressembles Jeffrey Wright! Serkis’ Alfred is not how I expected him to appear, so now I’m excited to see what he looks like in the film -

Exactly. The last surprise appearance of Wolverine - the Mighty Micro version - also wasn’t tied to anything specific and served no ulterior motive -

BrickBob Studpants replied to MKJoshA's topic in LEGO Star Wars
The set descriptions Stonewars have provided over the last few days for the other themes have revealed plenty new details, so I hope they can do the same for some of the SW sets I imagine there aren’t any prelim images of the TBOBF set in the catalogues, so that one will most likely be shrouded in mystery a while longer, but hopefully we will finally learn what the Yoda and Death Star sets are actually based on -

I wish that buildable Iron Man was in the same style as the Harry & Hermione maxifigs, but it’s too inexpensive for that -
DC Superheroes 2021 - Rumors & Discussion
BrickBob Studpants replied to Captain Nemo's topic in LEGO Licensed
Couldn’t agree more It’s not only the best DC set in ages, but also one of my favourites of the entire year across all themes I hope they release more sets from the TDK trilogy in that style -

BrickBob Studpants replied to Captain Nemo's topic in LEGO Licensed
Stonewars provide some more details about the 2022 sets in their article: https://www.stonewars.de/news/lego-harry-potter-neuheiten-q1-2022/ Noteworthy new bits of information include: The release date is the 1st of March Leaks might take a bit longer then The DADA set includes a depiction of the dark mark The Hospital Wing set includes a bottle of Skelegro and potentially a new owl print The suitcase set maybe includes a new leg piece that combines short legs with a skirt -

Those are pretty vague rumours anyway, there’s no guarantee any of them actually pan out It’s not like TFA or TROS where we had concept art to confirm character appearances… I’m not fully convinced myself yet, but I think we can expect a decent handful of familiar characters to show up. Hopefully, we also get some cool new characters with minifig potential -

Indeed. There’s another option for the Yoda set. It’s incredibly unlikely, but if “Yoda’s training” is actually the proper name of the set, it could be based on the Yoda arc of TCW S6. After all, we already got Yoda’s Jedi interceptor from that very same arc Not counting on it, but at least it’s an option The options for the DS set are a bit more limited, so not looking forward to that one too much. Could still be another remake of the ROTJ duel -

Stonewars have started to write a series of articles on the 2022 set lists, so it shouldn’t take too long before they get to the SW one Let’s hope they have some new bits of information to add, especially in regards to the Yoda and Death Star sets -

I sure hope so, we still need minifigs for two of those -

BrickBob Studpants replied to MKJoshA's topic in LEGO Star Wars
Since it’s now October, it shouldn’t be too long before the first minifigs start leaking Could be quite exciting, especially in regards to the TBOBF set. We still have no idea who will show up in that show apart from Boba and Fennec of course, and with a $100 set we should expect quite a few minifigs The only familiar characters that are currently rumoured to appear are and the only new character we’ve heard of is codenamed Characters from upcoming SW content being revealed through minifig leaks is a tradition I’d definitely like to see continue -

I will receive my copy this week, can’t wait to build it -
Harry Potter 2021 - Rumors & Discussion
BrickBob Studpants replied to Captain Nemo's topic in LEGO Licensed
Nope, we knew that already. What caught us off-guard were the dress and the new hat-hair combo piece Before, we were expecting a reprint of the 2018 version I expect them to reuse the Aunt May / Trolley Witch faceprint At least it’s not as widespread -

Minifigures could start leaking at the end of the month, unless TLG’s new anti-leak manager is really good at their job -

Kuiil, the Client, Pershing, Cobb Vanth, and Ahsoka would like to have a word with you You could argue that the Marvel equivalent are the random Spidey sets. Not in terms of nostalgia or iconicity of course, bur rather them playing it save -

BrickBob Studpants replied to Captain Nemo's topic in LEGO Licensed
*TLG puts exclusive minifigs in GWP sets* „How dare they?!“ *TLG doesn‘t put exlusive minifigs in GWP sets* „It‘s worthless!“ Sure, it’s not necessarily the same people making these sorts of statements, but as a whole, us fans sure are hard to please -

It‘s very nice that they actually thought of a way to display the wizard card tiles Looks like I‘ve ordered my purple 8*16 plates for nothing -

I prefer that plot thread being resolved in an upcoming season, rather than Mando getting „crowned“ as Mandalore right then and there. If there was a direct confrontation between him and Bo-katan, it would have been way too early I think They would all have died. Painfully You could argue it was a bit of a deus ex machina, but at least it was properly foreshadowed and it did make sense. Back to the set: Of course nothing in the set will be new technically, at least minifig-wise, but I‘m still looking forward to it. So, the 60$ set is now the only one unaccounted for, right? Or is that one supposed to be the alleged fighter tank? And why are the reveals this fragmented -
Dangit I hope we can still get them on BL without having to pay a fortune! Especially since I collect CMF boxes as well

LEGO half year results best ever
BrickBob Studpants replied to ArneNielsen's topic in General LEGO Discussion
What I find particularly noteworthy is that Creator Expert is in the top 5. Contrary to populary belief, the „Adults welcome“ campaign must‘ve paid off then -

BrickBob Studpants replied to MKJoshA's topic in LEGO Star Wars
You‘re the first person I‘ve seen who didn‘t like the hallway scene Any particular reason? Agreed, shouldn‘t be too hard to get enough of them to recreate the scenes in S2 (doubt they‘ll show up again anytime soon). Besides, their price on BL should drop rather drastically after the new set gets released -

And in light of this news, I take back anything negative I've said about this wave. Between the Darktrooper "battlepack" and Boba's Palace, this wave is already miles ahead of this year's first wave And we still don't know everything! -

Thank the maker! Interesting to hear that it's technically not a BP, but I don't mind Wonder what the build is like
