If you want to believe that nonsense, that’s your choice, but it’s total BS. But people are right, this isn’t the place

Two wrongs don’t make a right. The rioting and destroying and the beating is just as wrong as the racism they’re responding to. That said, I totally agree that LEGO is a very therapeutic release and I really wish we could get them

It looks like Obi-Wan in the Grievous’s Starfighter set has the Mustafar damage on his robes from the Duel on Mustafar set. That is such a letdown and significantly lowers the value of that set to me. Plus Grievous isn’t even new like leakers said. I want the ship but I will definitely wait for a major discount if I can find one, Lego was very lazy with the figures in this set. Reusing the Mustafar torso is a damn shame

I did not expect a set based on Galaxy’s Edge at all! Glad we’re getting CW S7 Ahsoka and a 332nd Trooper. Bummed that Anakin’s Interceptor doesn’t include an extra figure. Night Buzzard is pretty much what I expected. Airborne 212th Trooper in the Grievous’ ship was predictable, we all knew it wouldn’t be Cody. Death Star Final Duel is odd as it’s so similar to the previous one. Not sure I’ll get it since the figures aren’t even any different except for Palpatine’s hood. Good wave, some surprises, plenty of nice figures

Ha! Yeah right. Nah really though y’all have fun, there’s nothing like grabbing several crisp LEGO boxes off the shelf and heading to the checkout line (ordering online is fine too but there’s something special about buying them in store that I’ve always preferred).

There’s just as much racism everywhere else, it’s a messed up world. I’m jealous too, I wish we could be getting those sets now with everybody else. All in good time I suppose but it doesn’t make it any less irritating

Their service is impeccable. I sent them an email about the Finch Dallow situation just calmly voicing my disappointment that they would release a new version with an exclusive figure right before the set gets discontinued after most loyal customers had already bought the set. They said they completely understand and sent me the figure for free

Hopefully by the time the sets release in the US that error will have been resolved.

Very weird that his set had an extra Harry torso instead of one for Hermione. I hope that isn’t a common error in this set’s production

Thank you, good to have multiple sources confirming things

Good question, I guess it will all depend on when and how Lego chooses to reveal any currently undisclosed sets. I would guess June would be too early

My guess is he wants to appear like he’s still in control of the situation even though his reputation just got shattered

He said that was his last hint anyway, he needed to verify something. It’s like he’s suddenly breaking character. I was willing to give him the benefit of the doubt if he gave a decent explanation. He didn’t. He shrugged it off as smugly as he possibly could have and then quit. Doesn’t bode well in the slightest.

Wow that’s a crappy explanation. Believe what you want? There are pictures proving him wrong, there’s nothing to believe. I really hate that we have to question everything he’s said now

Not sure what some people are talking about as far as additional figures on the box. On the top of the box it shows Harry in the “actual size” square, and then it shows Harry, Ron, and Hermione with some of the builds.

Apparently there are 6 minifigs. We know of 4, I hope the other 2 are Padma and then either Cho or Moody

You’re right, the picture I saw must have had one of them reversed that’s my bad. And yeah I know about the color scheme, it’s just kinda hard to tell the specific colors in the set image

The twin is Parvati because the sash (or whatever it’s called) goes from the right shoulder to the left hip, whereas Padma’s goes from left shoulder to right hip. Also, she uses the same technique as Hermione for the dress, using the 1x2 printed prick on a 1x2 plate piece

If you closely you can see what appears to be the part of robes that goes from shoulder to hip on the Patil twins (don’t know what that’s called). And the hair looks very black to me although these blurry photos tend to make colors look off

First of all, an opinion can definitely be wrong. Serial killers are of the opinion that they are entitled to serial kill. Obviously that’s an extreme example but there are plenty more. Second, why not just agree to disagree and move on? Trust kingnono, don’t trust kingnono, it’s ok to disagree

Exactly, his silence is disconcerting

Exactly. I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt for now, this is the only thing he’s gotten wrong so far (even though it’s one of the more specific things he said). But I will also now be taking everything he has said and says from now on with a big grain of salt. It’s also strange that he hasn’t responded to it yet. His reputation is very much on the line here, and if he cares about that, he’ll say something

I honestly can’t see it well enough to tell if it’s her

I really hope kingnono makes a post responding to this. I’m very interested in what he would say. Did he mix it up with something else? Was this info something he got from another source that was incorrect? Did he get this info from the same source as the rest of his info? I’m very curious to find out if we can still trust his info

Yes please, kilt and all!
