  1. That is, unless they start handling regionally exclusive CMS from here on out in the same manner as they have with 2019's and 2020's Chinese New Year sets, with international availability coming some time after their domestic releases.
  2. You're most welcome! Welcome to Eurobricks by the way!!!
  3. Here are BrickLink's and TLG's official statements on the acquisition... BrickLink - BrickLink will join the LEGO Group BrickLink - A Message from the LEGO Group
  4. My two favorite figures from the theme have to be Aviator Jake Raines and the Anubis Guard; but besides that, somehow many of the other figures just didn't do much for me.
  5. Not sure if this recent submission would be pertinent to this Historical index or rather the Pirates index being a ship and all, but... LEGO Ideas - The Argo, Legendary Greek Ship
  6. Sweet, and supported Though I can't help but feel a Tintin set should be focused on something a little more iconic, like the moon rocket or the shark submarine. Well then, looks like MiniBrick Productions has followed-up on his initial Tintin project... LEGO Ideas - LEGO Hergé's The Adventures of Tintin: Explorers on the Moon
  7. While I had presumed for some time that Pharaoh's Quest was a theme boxed-in by its own name (thereby showing it had no long-term ambitions), others have hypothesized that it still could've continued on in the same tradition as the original Adventurers theme had it been more successful. Rather than just sticking around in Egypt under the same Pharaoh's Quest moniker, Jake Raines & Company could've traversed elsewhere in follow-up themes under names such as Mayan Quest, Orient Quest, Atlantis Quest, Hyperboria Quest, and so on... Well, I'd still like to see a proper Adventurer rather than just having a mere "Jungle Explorer" cover all those bases. Besides that though, other "Adventurer" archetypes I'd love to see include an Aviatrix (i.g. Amelia Earhart), an Evil Baron, a Sky Pirate (i.e. an antagonistic aviator), a Himalayan Explorer, an Egyptologist, a Rocketeer/Jetpack Aviator, an Adventureress, a Noir Crimefighter (i.g. The Shadow/Green Hornet), and maybe a Submarine Pirate Captain (i.g. Jules Verne's Captain Nemo).
  8. Huh, what about regionally exclusive CMF line-ups for China?
  9. Say, is that supposed to be Dickens' Ghost of Christmas Yet To Come in the upper right-hand corner?
  10. Well, for that matter, what is selling better in Germany and elsewhere around Europe?
  11. Heh, that Beach Buggy is pretty nice for a polybag four-wheeler...
  12. Two new polybags for Creator have been unveiled... PromoBricks - LEGO Polybags 2020
  13. By the way @Pengfei, are you also familiar with Fredoichi's work? Like Jon Hall, he too has built a pretty impressive arsenal of fantastical warplanes, but in Microscale rather than Minifigure scale!
  14. Heh, I seriously dig the two automobile builds that come with the Service Station, as their color choices seem typically uncharacteristic of City. You know what, I think you may have found our culprit right there... ...good eyes @tafkatb!!!
  15. I was rather surprised Series 19's Gamer CMF wasn't such... ...but hey, good call on that hair+headphones piece! My first thought was for it to be reused for a Female DJ CMF instead, but the Gamer suggestion would be much more apt for that piece.
  16. Holiday celebrations from around the world? Mmmmm, I really like the sound of that... ...so looking forwards to this!
  17. Ah, yes, I remember you mentioning that awhile ago back on @danth's Inspirational MOC topic! Is he a Eurobricks member though?
  18. Has anyone here yet seen this? PromoBricks - LEGO Duplo 2020: Sets for the Little Kids
  19. Huh, OK, put into that context I guess I can see it working out that way.
  20. Man, I wish Jon Hall were here on Eurobricks (or perhaps, knew if he was), as he's one of my all-time favorite builders next to Vincent Gashod!!!
  21. Looking pretty good! I think my favorite touch has to be the Bright Blue "ribbing" added to the engines of both the starship and the fighters...
  22. Well, they're a part of a licensed franchise though... The Brick Fan - Manchester United Announces Product Partnership with LEGO
  23. The Brick Fan - More LEGO City 2020 Official Set Images
  24. While they're not really my sort of thing, I find it rather surprising that City hasn't had a Sports subtheme of any kind yet. I mean, we've seen many different exploration themes that have otherwise been reserved for Action/Adventure themes come into City's fold as of recent, yet nothing Sports-related?
