    Yeah, that’s fully possible. But then I think it would have a higher price tag because generally larger and more costly bricks are needed for minifigure scale buildings.
  2. Bainter-ban
    The high piece count indicates that it is microscale… similar price and piece count as the hogwarts set

    Finally!! I love it. Hope the signs and posters are printed.
  4. Bainter-ban
    This is crazy. 7 dec and not even a glimpse of the new modular. Have we ever waited this long?
  5. Bainter-ban
    Come on… reveal it already!
  6. Bainter-ban
    Am I the only one a bit disappointed in the price tag for Visitor’s Centre? I was hoping for a $ 2-300 set.
  7. Bainter-ban
    Is «leaky_minifigure» reliable? A D2C Rivendell is just too good to be true…
  8. Bainter-ban
    There is also a castle rumoured at $ 159. Seems a bit strange that a small castle will replace the $ 380 Disney Castle? Unless there is another Castle D2C coming next year?

    According to Brick Clicker, it will be a pizzeria and jazz club. If true, the hint in Boutique hotel was actually a real hint! Which is very cool. Edit: It was a bit unclear in the video. I thought he showed a leaked picture of the modular. Turns out it was not, just an example taken from an Ideas-set.

    €500… wow, I can’t wait. This will be spectacular (I can feel it)! The golden age for Lego AFOLs are here!
  11. Bainter-ban
    Also, all modulars got a price increase, which is a pretty strong indicator that the sets will not be retired.
  12. Bainter-ban
    Just a question: are the seals supposed to tell the unique number of the set? I have the Bowling Alley and Venetian Houses, which are numbered 2302 and 2402 respectively. However, I’ve seen a lot of sets on sale with the same numbers?

    Releasing the two brickheadz and a D2C makes a lot of sense. I believe the mistake LEGO made in 2012 was releasing a theme with many sets, many which were relatively small. Such a wide release of a theme presupposes that kids are well into the theme as well, but not many kids are into LOTR, compared to say Star Wars, Harry Potter. An 18+ D2C aimed at adults will sell very well, in my opinion, provided that the set is well executed.

    According to Promobricks, and in the form of two BrickHeadz sets: 40630: Frodo and Gollum 40631: Gandalf the Gray and the Balrog And _possibly_ a large D2C set, but that was not 100% confirmed. I really hope the D2C rumour is true!

    Looks amazing, day 1 purchase definitely

    Really like the idea of a tram… will probably be a retro tram, like San Fran or Lisbon… first ever (non-modern) in Lego?
  17. Bainter-ban
    Yeah, I absolutely agree that there have been issues with the program. But the last round went rather smooth, at least for me. I was able to order both the train station and the construction site without any issues. There are many spectacular sets that reach the 10 000 threshold in Ideas, but very few reach official production. The program enables a lot more sets to reach production, which I think is great.
  18. Bainter-ban
    The program officially ended a few months ago when round 3 closed. Do you think the program will be initiated again in some form? I thought it was pretty successfull, all in all. The idea that non-selected ideas sets gets to be crowd-funded is great.

    Same. To add to the speculation: The Assembly Square also got a price increase (7 %). So that leaves the PS the only modular not getting a price increase. It has almost 500 more pieces than the BS which is now the same price as PS. Edit: It looks like it is getting a price increase in Europe, ref Promobricks, so I guess that ends the speculation 😄
  20. Bainter-ban
    So the PS did not get a price increase, which I found very strange as both the BS and BH got one. Also, most of the high-end sets above € 200 got a price increase. Could this mean that the set is retiring this year? I remember that the BB was suprisingly retired when no one was expecting it to be…
  21. Bainter-ban
    I really really like this set, and much better than the original design. I also like the dark and mature look of it (rather than being colourful with playfeatures). I really like that Lego makes more and more sets aimed at adults. I find it hard to believe that the set costs € 300 without including motorization and a light source… but I do think this set is amazing and will buy it anyway.
  22. Bainter-ban
    Thank you! It appeared in my cart after I logged in and out of my Lego account. Made two orders as well, and had to log in and out both times.
  23. Bainter-ban
    The set doesn’t appear in my cart even though I’m well over the threshold. Anyone else have this problem? I tried today at 00:00 too.
  24. Bainter-ban
    That would be so disappointing! But the GWP will be available three days before the event (if the leaks are correct), so I think we can rule that out being the reveal… It also makes sense to reveal the castle at the same time as the GWP is available, as they go very well together.
  25. Bainter-ban
    Lego just announced on Instagram that they are going to reveal «something awesome» related to the 90th anniversary, so I guess that pretty much confirms the reveal of the castle (unless they only reveal the space set, which I think is unlikely)
