  1. Well just look at Harry Potter Advent Calendar. All the minfigures look good, with 5 out of 6 being exclusive. They don't look like weird Christmas mash-ups. The builds are all interesting and work as additions to sets. Same goes for Star Wars - you've got Christmas variant for Mando and Grogu, whose Christmas looks are incorporated into their costumes, and the rest minfigures are just regular characters. My main disappointment is that it's SE based. After The Infinity Saga sets, who needs more of those?
  2. Duel on Mandalore is great. The build is good, but it's too simplistic for my taste. But ut works just fine as a duel set. Mandalorian Starfighter is amazing, the build is incredible - and so are the minifigures. They are just perfect Troop Transport looks... acceptable. The build is kinda ugly and blocky, and the minfigures are boring with 3 Stormtroopers. Slave I looks awesome, I love the build. Boba will be the main dish here, and Mando's spear is a nice inclusion. Should've had more minifigs tho. Gideon's Cruiser is... good. I like the build overally, but there are some things I don't like - giant cannons, or the whole front section. Minifigures are absolutely incredible tho - Fennec, Gideon and Dark Trooper all look perfect. Cara Dune being a repeat suck as I hate her face print. Is that Christmas Mando and Grogu I see in the AC? Finally Grogu's pod appeared too
  3. Same goes for the Advent Calendar, it all looks off. It just seems as if someone mashed superhero minifigures with some random clothes parts (sweaters, jeans, scarfs etc.). I like some builds, like Infinity Stone tree or Iron Man snowman, but we all know those are just random things that have no real use. As for Iron Man's Sakaarian Mech... if I think objectively, then I really like it. The build is unique enough, and so are the minifigures - Tony Stark with this t-shirt is lovely, Valkyrie looks fantastic and so does The Watcher. I am also SO GLAD that it's not WWII Steve's Mech. Subjectively... it's just nor for me.
  4. I need to see full Korg, but that face alone looks awful
  5. Oh wow, this torso is absolutely incredible Wonder if Slave I is The Mandalorian set after all? I wouldn't say no to Fennec... Or maybe it's a mystery Book of Boba Fett set
  6. Well that's a great box art, I especially love Sanctuary II coming out of the Quantum tunnel That little scene with Thanos just sitting and Iron Man snapping the golden Gauntlet tho
  7. We don't even know the release date, so it's impossible to say. Lego Con seems like a good guess tho. I... don't see it. Like at all. And even if I did, that's ridiculous It's just a wall...
  8. If you want to get them day 1? Just as @lego_guyon02 said, between 15% and 20%. If you want to wait, it really depends on your luck. You'd have to wait some time to get bigger discounts than that tho.
  9. Just built Polyjuice Potion set, and it's absolutely fantastic. The build itself is really we built. The sinks are obviously my favourite part, I love them. The rest is great too. Can't wait to connect it with the First Flight set! Minfigures are the standout here (again, obviously). Just amazing, each one of them. As for the cards, I got Minerva McGonagall and Helga Hufflepuff. Can't wait to get First Flight and Advent Calendar so I can get more (I hope I won't get repeats tho...).
  10. They did one in 2015, and they missed. They did one in 2018, and they missed again. Then they did a baby in 2019, and it worked. If they miss again in 2022...
  11. Rumoured new dinosaurs that are coming in Dominion are Deinonychus, Dimetrodon, Pyroraptor and Giganotosaurus. I think we can definitely expect those 4. I also hope Spinosaurus is included in the movie (unless they an S4 of CC to be set on Isla Sorna, then he could return there). Then the rest will be either repeats (I pray for an accurate Blue), or dinosaurs we didn't get yet like Stegosaurus or Parasauralophus.
  12. 76238 is a 70€ Batman 1966 buildable cowl. It was officially revealed yesterday, and it's already available for pre-order with an October 1st release date.
  13. Yeah I know, I just used your reply to let others know what I'm referring to. Sorry for confusion
  14. Camp Cretaceous is such a great series, and it shouldn't be overlooked by people. Those sets should've just been full on Camp Cretaceous, instead of this awkward hybrid. I hope we get more CC sets in the future.
  15. Oh, I don't think so... No we haven't, it's literally this theme's 20th anniversary. It only happens... well, once. Obviously they wouldn't miss it. Dark? Those movies are watched by kids. Sure, they are darker than 1-6, but in the same way that RoTS is darker than other Star Wars movies. They've made Deathly Hallows sets before, and I have no idea why this topic comes like a boomerang once in a while
  16. Oh wow, Iron Monger set is one if the best Marvel sets in recent years... it's literally perfect, but a few nitpicks. Minfigure selection is excellent. Iron Man is one the best variants yet (hairpiece is a great inclusion), Obadiah is kinda perfect and Pepper is great. The build itself uses so many inetsrying techniques, and it has a lot of little details. I especially love how they improved the head from 2019's Molten Man. Incredible build, although oversized. The price is perfect, it's worth it. Overall, I give it 9/10. Amazing set.
  17. Endgame Final Battle and Iron Monger just arrived I'll build Endgame set in 2 days, but I've just started building Iron Monger. I love Iron Man minfig so far
  18. Polyjuice Potion Mistake just arrived today. Can't wait to build it, I'll do it tomorrow as I have another set to build today. So excited
  19. Full thoughts: Stygimoloch Escape: great 4+ set; minfigures are all exclusive in this set (as 2021 sets, Claire is obviously a repeat), and dinosuarus are good; builds are really good as 4+ builds; could be 30€, but seeing as it's 4+, I'm not gonna complain that much - 7/10 T. Rex Fossil: definitely very unique; minfigures are... okay, but they repeat in other sets; builds are okay; baby Triceratops is cool, a bigger dinosaur would be better; price is acceptable - 6.5/10 Carnotaurus Chase: from now on it gets worse; minfigures are exclusive (2 out of 3), but Kenji looks bad; build are bleing and bland; Toro looks great tho; it's overpriced too - 4.5/10 Baryonyx Boat Escape: the worst set; minfigures are bad, Yaz is the only one worth attention; Barynoyx is cool, but only one dinosaur in an 80€ set is awful; boat looks cool, but it will take like 20 minutes to build with this one huge piece; overpriced as hell - 3.5/10
  20. Who decided what to use as Brooklyn's face
  21. Hagrid would probably be too big for an Advent Calendar.
  22. Ranked thoughts on each Camp Cretaceous minfigures (I have to say I hate that they all have regular legs): 1. Sammy is the best one, she just works. Nothing to complain about. 2. Darius has a great torso, and the face kinda works for me, could be better tho. 3. Yaz looks good, I love the torso and legs except for no side leg pritning. Face and hair are fine. 4. Ben looks... acceptable. Torso is good, same problem with legs as Yaz. Face is weird... 5. Kenji is a no from me. Hair is off, face is horrible, no side printing on legs makes them look terrible. 6. Brooklyn has good everything. That face just ruined it for me, I didn't know a face could change my opinion this much... it's just an absolutely terrible and awful choice. Ok, the truck does appear, but it's inaccurate in some places. Where did the T. Rex fossil appear in that form tho?
  23. Lego. Shop@home. They are on other websites and Insagram too tho.
  24. I hate how they didn't go full Camp Cretaceous, but made this weird hybrid that doesn't really work... did they really have to include Owens? None of the builds appear in CC, the dinosaurs do, some minfigures do, some don't... it just sucks.
