Yeah, PS/CoS Hermione never has a ponytail, so this might be a different character? Maybe just a random shopper? If so, kinda funny to have Ron as the only member of the trio in a set this large!

Two words: Infinity War

They are That’s an excellent GWP!! It’ll be “sold out” very quickly I imagine.

My bad, I thought you were talking about the 2020 set Still, I think it’s neat we have sets depicting both versions!

I like that the D2C set is based on the studio set while the playsets are more based on the theme park Sets them apart nicely ^^

The culprit is back at the scene of the crime!!! THE TURTLY ONE HAS RETURNED!!

Have we learned nothing from Jurassic Park? A wolf with some Frankensteinian genetic modifications ain’t a direwolf. Finally introducing pigeons is such a neat idea! The inhabitants of LEGO City will now learn what living in a real city is like

The minifigs are Ron, Hermione, Cho, Fortescue, a Gryffindor Quidditch player (Angelina?), and a random witch with Sprout’s hat/hairpiece Decent selection!

According to @Brick Clicker, the Hogsmeade set is gonna be $380, so almost as much as DA

Pictures of all May releases are out now! Kylo‘s helmet and Shuttle both look cool, and the Brickheadz of Grievous and the Senate are among my new favourites

Well yeah, the real value of anything is what people are willing to pay for it Since most people seem to sell it for ~$50 on Bricklink, that seems to be where we‘re currently at, which is still double its „official“ worth.

Of course it is, like any Turtly discussion before it His superpower is inspiring silly discussions that never go anywhere.

Very unlikely, given the show‘s reception The Exile II with all the main characters would‘ve been great, but that‘s now out the Windu I‘m afraid.

My stance on reselling is this: an increase in price is justified, if the seller adds value. In terms of collecting, this means taking good care of the set (like keeping the box in good condition over multiple years etc). So asking a (reasonably) higher price for an old set is justified in my eyes Selling a GWP for five times its actual value 2 days after launch is certainly NOT. So yeah, agreed, that‘s just plain greed.

Both of them have 40xxx set numbers, meaning they‘re very limited LEGO exclusives. Not sure how that‘s supposed to be an indication of desperation, they‘re just fun holiday sets

You got rid of your beloved Shadow Boxes?? You monster!!

So stupid. Love it Good replacement for the AC in my book!

I didn’t think the 2015 model could be surpassed, but they did it! Love all the details, both on the exterior and interior And the seismic charge looks excellent!

I imagine very few people actually care about this set, as it’s just another boring Batmobile with a boring Man minifig I’ll get it for the sake of completion, but my excitement is asymptotic to 0.

It’s the Aslume. This ceased to be a pure DC thread a loooooooooong time ago

Considering that IG-12 was A) the first thing to leak from S3, B) falsely rumoured to be a set, and C) a friggin MECH, it’s baffling it wasn’t featured in any of the sets! Maybe they were struggling to make it work scale-wise

That was also in the late 90s, just before TLG almost went bankrupt, and they were a much smaller company back then. It’s thus not unthinkable that the Indy sets sold much better than Adventurers did, despite their shorter run No offense to good ol’ Johnny (especially since Adventurers was my favourite theme as a kid), but who needs an expy if you can have the original?

That was a nice inclusion and a fun retcon on TLG’s part since she undeniably was present at Hogwarts for the events of CoS, given she’s only a year younger than the trio Just like the first LEGO game retconned Sinistra’s and Vector’s movie appearances and how Kettleburn will soon be retconned into PS as well

You make it sound as if that’s a fact And don’t tell me they’re “objectively bad” It’s still in the top 5 themes in every financial report they put out. And if sales dropped, they’d reduce the number of sets, which they clearly don’t. Also, there’s gonna be the first $1000 set soon. They obviously wouldn’t do that for a dying theme

My guess is along with the next trailer. After all, we haven’t seen Galactus fully yet!
