Marvel Superheroes 2021 - Rumors & Discussion
BrickBob Studpants replied to Captain Nemo's topic in LEGO Licensed
Too bad Zemo’s not part of the series, but at least there’s a third WV character I believe white Vision has been ruled out before, so there’s a very good chance this is Agatha -

Looks like Bohner’s credibility just went up a notch (his Marvel CMF series distribution info just panned out), so maybe he’s right about the Mario D2C set as well Not ready to get my hopes up just yet though, still needs some corroboration -

Pretty much what we expected At least she gets a new torso, that’s more than can be said for other characters (like poor Happy) -

BrickBob Studpants replied to Captain Nemo's topic in LEGO Licensed
I don’t think we have an official release date yet, but it would make sense for the D2C set to get released in August along with the other sets, just like last year The NES only got leaked a mere 2 weeks before its release, so something like that could happen again this year. ...unless the minifig rumour pans out, in which case they might leak before the set itself of course -

You mean this one? It's available in a few sets: https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=91176&idColor=2#T=C&C=2 -
Super Mario 2021 - Rumors & Discussion
BrickBob Studpants replied to Captain Nemo's topic in LEGO Licensed
Makes sense Let's suppose we do end up getting minifigs. How would you want TLG to approach them? New hat/hair pieces with regular minifig heads à la Flintstones, or completely moulded heads à la Simpsons? Personally, I'd prefer the latter because removing the noses and changing the eyes just wouldn't work for me Agreed, some of the suits like the penguin one should definitely be designed to be interchangeable between the two figures. Speaking of suits: now that Luigi has been confirmed, I think it's safe to assume that the two upcoming ones will be for him. I'm guessing Fire Luigi and Kitsune Luigi -

Sorry if I came across as aggressive, that was not supposed to be an attack I've just seen too many posts trying to discredit our trusted informants lately The way I understood FalconFan's post was that he questions Bohner's believability, which I do as well, until we get some further proof (in general I mean). It's just that the amount of would-be leakers has increased in the last 2 years or so, and thus I'm a lot more skeptical towards new leakers than usual -

Falconfan: has been a leaker for literal YEARS Bohner: has been an alleged leaker for two weeks or so Hm, which one is more believable? -

BrickBob Studpants replied to Captain Nemo's topic in LEGO Licensed
Theoretically, yes. Regular minifig sets would never have made sense because 99% of the enemies would have required at least one specialised mould each. In contrast, a D2C set with 4-5 minifigs (and 1 new mould each) would be more than feasible I'd say I'd still take it with a huge grain of salt, because this train of thought will only lead to disappointment -

Do you mean Bohner_bricks' hints? Not too sure how accurate his info is yet, he first needs to prove himself before I start trusting him, as with any new leaker -

While that Groot is fake, I quite like the colour change Let's hope the real one also isn't reddish brown anymore. Dark tan like the Brickheadz figure would be nice -

Not sure what stickers you’re referring to, because the Dueling Club set only included the two banner stickers -

The board game is part of the packaging, so most likely printed on the flap that usually serves as the backdrop I'm also wondering about that. 5 would definitely be a low count Not even the polybag? -

BrickBob Studpants replied to Captain Nemo's topic in LEGO Licensed
...you'll be typing your future posts at half the speed Btw, what are you guys excited to see the most next, now that the main wave has been revealed? We have: the 16 chocolate frog card characters the D2C set the two rumoured Brickheadz packs the accessory pack the polybag the Advent Calendar I think I'll go with the accessory pack, followed by the chocolate frog cards Even though it's very likely Quidditch-based, the accessory pack may still surprise us And while I'm not overly fond of their randomized nature, the card tiles are simply an amazing idea, can't wait to see what characters they chose for this -

BrickBob Studpants replied to Captain Nemo's topic in LEGO Licensed
We do have a set name, so in my book, there's not much wiggle room for anything but a collection of items I agree with @Retro Brick Reviews here, the NES was among the best sets last year, so the idea of a collection of buildable iconic items does have merit. Add Dumbledoro and/or Dragold, and I'm golden. Bad pun most certainly intended -

I'm sure they'll do DH sets at some point, and even if won't be next year (enjoy that hand of yours if that's the case, @THELEGOBATMAN ), at least there's still the prospect of a third CMF series to fill in some of the gaps Last year's Griphook minifig should prove that DH won't be ignored. -

What you're describing is a hard reboot though -
Harry Potter 2021 - Rumors & Discussion
BrickBob Studpants replied to Captain Nemo's topic in LEGO Licensed
Couldn’t agree more Despite how important the Battle of Hogwarts is, I mostly want sets based on other scenes. The problem I have with the idea of a DH2 Hogwarts expansion is the clash between the context of the scene and the interior of the set, which would probably be in the same style as all the other sets, and these two ideas just don’t mix all that well. Just look at the 2011 set: includes death eaters and an exploding bridge, but also classroom interiors. Pretty weird juxtaposition Then again, simply ignoring the climatic event of the entire series also isn’t an option. Maybe a good opportunity for the courtyard or something? -

LEGO Star Wars 2021 Set Discussion - READ FIRST POST!!!
BrickBob Studpants replied to MKJoshA's topic in LEGO Star Wars
It’s a rumour that’s been circulating, and hopefully a false one Good to know, thanks Must’ve missed that Sure, but I’m talking about minifig moulds in particular. Ninjago has a lot of specialised parts, but never at the cost of minifig moulds, and neither did Star Wars in the last few years. Almost every recent UCS set introduced a new windshield piece, yet there were plenty of new minifig moulds in those years too. And we already know the Gunship will repurpose the jedi starfighter windshield piece The only new mould this year that appears to have been designed specifically for SW is the 3x3x2 round brick in the X-Wing set. The 1x1 brick with axle hole is obviously an all-purpose part that has already shown up in many other sets -

At least neither him nor Agatha have been killed off yet, so their return is pretty much guaranteed It may take a while, but they’ll be back (and hopefully on the big screen, to increase their chances for a minifig representation). That’s definitely more than can be said for the one-and-done villains we still need in minifig form (Kaecilius, Malekith, Whiplash, Red Skull, Zola, Pierce, and Ego)
