    The mosasaurus will have plot relevance in Rebirth, so we‘re almost guaranteed to finally get one! Only took us… 10 years

    Still hoping for a minifig list to drop soon! I‘m the most excited to hear more about Malfoy Manor and Hagrid‘s bike Also, after having built some of the new Dreamzzz sets, I‘m still baffled they haven‘t used the dual-moulded smoke piece from Hidden Side for the baddies yet. The HP team is usually excellent at reusing parts in clever ways!

    There has to be a reason BPs have become so inconsistent Maybe they did start to self-cannibalise, as some have suggested? If so, you think they‘d diversify them a bit though to prevent that. …which they‘ve actually done in a way this year! We had a larger Clone vs Battle Droid BP, a regular size Imperial Armoured Commando vs Mando one, and now the exclusive Stormie vs Rebel Trooper set. Great selection if you ask me! Now if only they continued that next year… Maybe we‘ll get one or two next Summer!

    Joker: Folie à Bleugh To be fair, I haven‘t seen it, but the buzz has NOT been good. I didn‘t care for the original, and from what I‘ve heard, I‘d be the prime target audience though! Still, no thanks. Funnily enough, the ending validates

    Not really a theme though, as it was „only“ an Ideas set

    Yeah, the Malibu mansion rumour sounded like horseradish from the getgo. Almost 6000 pieces, and then that minifig list I will never understand what‘s supposed to be so fun about spreading fake rumours.

    The helmet sets are 18+ though

    Personally, I actually hope they won‘t release too many ROTS sets next year. It‘s kinda been done to death AOTC needs more love from TLG!

    As did I. Touched it today when I was rearranging things, and all hell broke loose The main issue is still the stand. I double-checked everything and it makes no sense for the slope and reverse-slope pieces to be there since the hole in the model is so deep, the weight of the entire thing rests on those two pieces, and of course they fly off The wing issue is also still there.

    I‘m surprised, nay, disappointed. No jonkling in this thread about the new Jonkler movie? A D Cinemascore is unheard of for CBMs, even Fant4stic got a C+! Looks like WB enjoy keeping themselves warm! …by burning all their money. And goodwill. And bridges. Ouch.

    It‘s not a 2024 set, but I have to rant about it before I explode The 2023 UCS X-Wing is the worst piece of **** set they have ever designed. I‘ve been trying to fix this horribly designed monster for 3 hours and I‘m going mad. The stand keeps falling apart, the side panels are so flimsily attached they keep falling off, the mechanism doesn‘t work because the wings are too heavy, and the slopes on the stand keep falling off because the hole where it‘s attached is just too deep. What on Earth happened here?! The 2013 model never had such issues! I hate this pile of rubbish now more than the 2020 Mickey and Minnie figures.

    Metal Sonic works really well as a minifig, much better than the weird battle droid hybrid …thing from Dimensions Also nice to see that Tails gets a new facial expression as well!
  13. BrickBob Studpants
    I‘m aware, but his Mini isn‘t known for participating in any races, high octane chace scenes or anything along those lines
  14. BrickBob Studpants
    There's one other instance, namely a printed tile from the NES set that was included in someone's Monkie Kid set And in a similar instance, someone had ordered a replacement torso on pick a brick and instead got Bucky's torso from the first Marvel CMF series! I think. Or was it just a picture of the torso on the inventory sheet you receive with each PAB order? Something like that.

    @TandNbricks is hinting at more movie-based sets in 2HY 2025. I hope we venture beyond F&F this time One of the limitations is the name of the theme itself. Otherwise iconic cars from well known IPs get disqualified just for that, like Mr Bean‘s Mini
  16. BrickBob Studpants
    That one has already been deconfirmed And as @jonwil points out, as long as Mega has the Pkmn license, we won‘t see any LEGO sets. And it doesn‘t look like they‘ll drop it anytime soon So two items on that list are made-up, three are true, and one is still rumoured but unconfirmed. Pretty decent prank

    The stories about TLG and Nick/Viacom not getting along keep popping up, but I don‘t see any actual proof. Of course that would be next to impossible to acquire since insiders would have to spill the beans on the matter I still hope for SpongeBob to return one day. The Ideas projects people keep creating are so good and the minifigs could be so much better nowadays!
  18. BrickBob Studpants
    Thank you for confirming it! Now I‘m curious which theme(s) he was referring to, unless that post didn‘t hint at themes other than the ones he already confirmed (i.e., Simpsons and Horizon). Avatar can be ruled out too since he said in another post he only expects it to return.
  19. BrickBob Studpants
    @Brick Clicker confirmed that 71049 is the F1 series. The biggest mystery is whether they‘ll still call it a „minifigure“ series
  20. BrickBob Studpants
    Well, I said chances were super slim. The only reason I suggested it was because it would fit with the hint, not that it made any sense. He has since stated in a separate question that he wants the theme to return, which indicates he hinted at something else
  21. BrickBob Studpants
    Wouldn‘t we get sets for Avatar 3 in January 2026 though? And Horizon isn‘t really a theme per se Also, Simpsons, LOTR, and Horizon were already teased in other posts, so I think he meant other IPs
  22. BrickBob Studpants
    He‘s very reliable. A Shire set it is then! Not the most exciting choice in terms of minifigs (unless it‘s based on both FOTR and AUJ), but the build itself could be pretty incredible! Fingers crossed it‘s cheaper than the previous two sets though.
  23. BrickBob Studpants
    I can‘t believe I‘m opening this can of worms again, but could @TandNbricks hint at Indy returning? Which other „old“ themes that didn‘t have sets in the „last 1-2 years“ could qualify? I know the chances are super slim, but the possibility is there
  24. BrickBob Studpants
    SpongeBob would have my vote! (Duh) But to me, it‘s a bit strange he specified „in the last 1-2 years“. If it was SpongeBob or Scooby-Doo, he would‘ve said 10+ years, no? Unless he wants to be as vague as possible on purpose
  25. BrickBob Studpants
    @TandNbricks is hinting at more Transformers sets, even outside the 18+ line we currently have! So far, he only confirms one non-18+ set
