Modular Building Sets - Rumours and Discussion
Digger of Bricks replied to The Jersey Brick Guy's topic in LEGO Town
Two of the most interesting points I found discussed from that point on were focused upon the topics of incorporating Dark Turquoise (a.k.a. Teal) into the Downtown Diner and the issue of the design team's thoughts on lower priced Creator Expert sets. Apparently, Dark Turquoise was being reintroduced for the Elves sets, not the Diner necessarily; and, regarding lower priced Creator Expert sets (below the US $99.99 price range), it's not out of the question, but it does help keep the Three-In-One and Expert lines distinct. Still, regarding that last point, I do wonder if half-width modular buildings may ever be on the table for future consideration. -

LEGO Ideas Discussion
Digger of Bricks replied to The Real Indiana Jones's topic in General LEGO Discussion
That I feel may be the most likely possibility, but I don't necessarily think that it would be an outright Jaguar E-Type. If anything, the scale alone of that submission was enough to qualify it as being too similar to a potential Creator Expert set, much like how modular building projects submitted to Ideas conflict with the preexisting annual line. He would've said that was the case if it were indeed, as the Chiron was announced during that very event. -
My first immediate thought was a rocketship, but that's just me. This is an adorable beauty @Pate-keetongu, I just love both color pairing of Sand Green with Earth Orange and the boat stud cobblestoning.

Inspirational Modular and Castle MOCs
Digger of Bricks replied to LegoModularFan's topic in LEGO Town
A beauty indeed, an abode of Sand Green and Earth Orange accenting atop Light and Dark Bluish Grey foundations, with some excellent NPU! Upon first glance, that just doesn't look like Lego, which isn't a bad thing at all! That's rather... macabre?- 817 replies

You must be thinking of @Ashnflash's work.

These two both look stunning in the ABS! Upon revisitation, I still love their color schemes, especially the Earth Blue/Dark Azure/Light Bluish Grey one on the left!

Creator Expert Cars - Rumors, Discussion, and Speculation
Digger of Bricks replied to SheldonF's topic in Special LEGO Themes
If I were to give a good guess as to what our Creator Expert automobile set may be for this year, I'd figure it would be either a classic Porsche of some type or a classic Mack truck. We've already seen a few larger sets based upon VW Group automobiles (VW Bus, VW Beetle, Technic Porsche, Technic Chiron), and given Creator Expert's propensity for classic cars as opposed to current models, a classic Mack truck would be another good opportunity to utilize the license for that brand first used for the Technic Mack Anthem. I guess "alienate" was perhaps to strong of a word, but seeing how many of these automobile sets for both Creator and Technic have leaned towards European brands so far, I was only figuring that those brands were found by TLG to have a better chance of broader marketability on a global scale over others. I was only figuring that the prior part of your statement may possibly be the case, but in no way did I think that the others would be seen as offensive. -

How so? When did Lego officially drop the licensing agreement for BBC's Doctor Who? I think @LEGODalekbuster523 is correct in this case, as any intellectual property that has had an attached Ideas project approved for production will then be banned from being utilized again by others for their own projects.

DC Superheroes 2018 - Set Discussion
Digger of Bricks replied to Captain Nemo's topic in LEGO Licensed
Seriously, have we ever before seen preliminary catalog images of any playsets before their presumed cancellation? That's what I'd like to know, as there was at least one other 2018 set that we only heard rumors of from the City theme, only to never see it unveiled either.- 1,409 replies

LEGO - 40291 Hans Christian Andersen
Digger of Bricks replied to Robert8's topic in Special LEGO Themes
Some of the other build suggestions (parts not included) are also pretty amusing, especially the second one from the left based upon The Emperor's New Clothes. -
I'll also say, that upon first glance, this creation appears to be too small to even fit a minifigure when its canopy is closed. But, lo and behold...

Dang, scissor doors on a starfighter?! That's pretty rad!

First 2018 LEGO Ideas Review Guessing Game
Digger of Bricks replied to Blondie-Wan's topic in General LEGO Discussion
Really? If anything, this review I feel has a better chance for new approvals than the last one, because if it weren't for that Pop-Up Book project... Regarding the yearly quota for approvals, here's some interesting insight from a very recent interview: New Elementary - LEGO® IDEAS POP-UP BOOK: EXCLUSIVE SAMUEL JOHNSON INTERVIEW -
We could even potentially see Sci-Fi weapon packs and/or Pirate packs from this line, but I don't know if we'd see such polybags in the absence of proper themes for those.
