Because the first games made for the PS4 still came out on the PS3...

I hope so too but it's very unlikely as it's looking like this game won't even come to PS4

Probably not gonna have any impact on LEGO but during Sony's Playstation 5 reveal stream they just announced a new Spider-Man PS4 game/dlc for holiday 2020

Because the sets don't come out untill July and that catalog only shows stuff from june and earlier

I don't blame them, LEGO is in a pretty tight spot when it comes to distribution. Each continent gets their sets from a specific factory but with the one in Mexico being closed down the ones in Europe and Asia have to provide sets for countries in North/South-America on top of their usual countries. It's all a matter of shifting things around to make sure the largest amount of people possible can get their chance at purchasing the sets. Patience is key, now more than ever

Depends on what sets you're looking for, my purchases have been divided over multiple stores (tip: use Brickwatch, their website keeps track of all sales and discounts here in the Netherlands). But the VIP points thing I can agree on, only someone who doesn't like saving a lot of money would buy stuff directly from LEGO here in the Netherlands. I only buy directly from them when I don't have another choice

The main wave was announced in april and came out in june, the carriage and graveyard were both announced in mid-may. I wouldn't count on any more sets coming out this year as we should've already had some info on them if there was more.

It's the final product, why would they show off an unfinished set in a retail catalogue? Pretty sure that counts as false advertisement

Guess I'll have to wait some more, B&P is down again

Bricks and Pieces has reopened it's doors in even more countries today. I checked the database for all the new Harry Potter sets and these are all the pieces currently available: - Greybacks torso - Vernons torso - Harry's torso - Ginny's torso - Arthurs torso - Dobby's legs - Brown owl - Lavenders torso Act quick if you want some of this stuff, it won't be there for long

The Potterhead in me is ashamed of how quickly my attention shifted to the Orthanc and Dol Guldur sets

It's not based on anything we've ever seen in the franchise, neither Park nor World. It's just a reskin of the App Controlled Batmobile with some changes to make it fit in with this theme (even though it really doesn't)

No problem, now if you'll excuse me I'm gonna call Brickshop to ask for my percentage of their new revenue

They've always arrived in perfect condition, I've never had a problem with them before

I do, it's a very good store to order from and I've done so multiple times. Their deliveries have always been really fast but it's a Dutch shop so it will undoubtedly take longer for you to get your order.

Both of them are hollow

Afaik we haven't heard anything about the Hulk bust since the first rumors so idk if it's still a thing. I'd expect the Hall of Armor set to come out on August 1st, it would make sense to release it alongside the other Avengers sets in Europe. The Star Wars sets coming out August 1st also haven't been revealed yet (though they were in the catalog just like the HoA add-on) so I'd say that releasedate is pretty likely.

What are your overall thoughts on the Gali/Pteranodon set? The Galli and Ptera are pretty much the only things I like about this set, any usefull pieces in the build?

For everyone saying there's no info on the polybag's release: it releases in stores on July 1st and will retail for 5 euro (idk about $), we've known this since the polybag leaked. I can't really tell what color the wand is supposed to be from the pictures but Cho's skincolor is the same between the Accessory Pack and the CMF. The used skintone isn't accurate to the movies though

Thanks to both of you. I did try to incorporate some embryo storage equipment but it didn't really work out so I removed it. I don't have any of the 2015 sets so I also don't have that amber piece but I did include the 1x1 brick version from the new sets which looks much better imo.

Don't count on it, D2C are usually revealed very close to the releasedate. The Hogwarts castle had a September 1st release with early VIP access starting August 15th, that set was revealed on July 25th. I'd recommend expecting a pressrelease around late-July, mid-July if we're lucky.

Afaik it's not from anyone here but that head is from the Luke Skywalker constraction figure. The hair has been painted orange though

Honestly though, why are we even discussing a CMF in the first place? There are NO rumors saying one is happening any time soon so we're pretty much all wishlisting now

We are thinking like LEGO, that's the whole point. The MCU is much more popular and mainstream than the comics, doing an MCU CMF first and possibly a comic CMF later is the obvious choice if we're just looking at money. The MCU is hot now so it would be stupid not to take advantage of that. Sure Spider-Man is popular and kids who like superheroes would want him in there but they could easily include the Homemade or Upgraded suits, that would make both kids and fans happy.

The ''instructions'' of the little turrets and more pictures of the GST and the rest of my Hogwarts are on my Instagram (@lego_guyon02). The GST itself is basically the Great Hall version but wider and fully enclosed (in terms of flooring, ~1/4 of the wall is open), because the whole tower is wider the roof is also taller. The space between curved panels in the official set is 4 studs, in my version it's 6 but those 2 studs on all sides make a massive difference.
