  1. He is using this arm piece.
  2. No problem!
  3. There may be some details on the reverse of the head (just speculating). It is a bug, not a squid. I think that she is a nurse (it looks like she may have the medical insignia on her chest).
  4. No, as linking to leaked images is forbidden. Just go to the legoleak subreddit, or check the relevant hashtags on IG.
  5. Woah! I completely missed that, somehow. I am curious about what the upper part of the Ice Planet guy’s torso looks like; I hope that it will have a logo, fur collar, and other details that make the figure usable even without the armour. Also, the mutated Blacktron II guy’s right leg might be digitigrade.
  6. Yes (though just one, and it is potato-quality).
  7. I hope so, but I think that we would have heard rumours of such a set by now, since June would be the obvious release month.
  8. What do you consider to be “not very expensive”? I only see them for minimum $17-$18 (new). Trans-pink is unlikely, but trans-orange is a possibility.
  9. Reddit, Instagram, TwiX, etc.
  10. Ice cream scoops; not a new mould.
  11. Does it? I feel like this (or Series 25) was the obvious place. I certainly hope that we do not get another book-exclusive colour!! 😬
  12. Same; that is a major oversight in a Space series!
  13. This is the regular motorcycle helmet, not the CS helmet. Good catch - Printing or dual-moulding on the visor would go a long way to improving the helmet design! What is particularly maddening is that they did not even give him a visor in another colour! I can only hope that this is a mistake due to this being some kind of preliminary showcase, and that we are getting a trans-neon green visor in the final figure! There is actually precedent, as Jordana’s hair in the Ninjago sets shown to DuckBricks was orange instead of the finalised dark red.
  14. Some of these are really good, while others are rather mid. I hope that the antenna on the Human suit’s hair is removable, so that the hair can be used on its own; my final thoughts will be determined by a less blurry pic. The robot(?) looks interesting (I am very curious about the new leg piece), but the inspiration feels muddled (is it a person or a Robbie the Robot robot?). Retro space girl looks great, the use of the plastic skirt is brilliant, and we get a dog! The only negative that I can see is the lack of a gold recolour of the Series 17 ray gun. M;Tron 2 is nice, but also somewhat frustrating; I was hoping that either the helmet or armour (or both!) from the City Space orange team would be used for him, so the more straightforward remake is falling a little flat. Maybe better pics will improve my opinion, though (and I do still want many of this one!). The worst problem, however, is the lack of a visor! Even if they cannot use trans-neon green, they should have given him a trans-bright green or trans-red (or even trans-clear FFS!) visor! 😡 UFO costume guy is a major disappointment; I was hoping for an alien child with a flying saucer leg attachment (like the train and plane costumes that Human children have gotten), not just a flat neckwear piece over a starfield bodysuit. Vacation Grey is cute, and he might have some new hands or arms (the hands look like the new prosthetic piece from Friends), but I was hoping for a moulded head. The bug Elite looks amazing - New moulded head, (what looks like) the ladybug costume wings as wings/carapace, and printed digitigrade legs! The torso design reminds me of the Galaxy Squad Buggoids, and that plant makes me worried for the new City Space astronauts!! The NASA astronaut is a bit plain, but good overall, and I like the new spacewalk jetpack mould(s?). Ice Planet 2.002 is the definition of Director Krennic’s “We were on the verge of greatness” quote - The new visor/helmet mould looks amazing, the armour use is clever, and we may even be getting trans-neon orange back! Why, then, is the visor not also trans-neon orange??? Also, I really hope that they have dual-moulded legs, since if they are just solid, unprinted black with blue hips, I will be very sad. Also, spacesuit penguin is cute. 👍 Mutated Blacktron guy is a real missed opportunity; he is not mutated enough to really look alien (no moulded head!), but also not easily usable as a normal Blacktron II Minifig (no helmet). The transparent right leg is incredibly unnecessary, and it makes the legs useless for normal Blacktron; at least the torso looks reusable. 🫤 Orion is really good, and shows off the capabilities of MABS (both arms, both legs, the head, and the head-attachment are all translucent); we also get a new club piece that I hope shows up in a solid colour in future CMF series. That being said, he is also a waste of space (pun intended); Orion can fit easily into any CMF series, so his presence here is taking away a slot for another new alien or classic remake. The space nurse (robot?) is not bad; I do actually like her, but I am a bit disappointed that we are not getting the CS recolour that I was expecting from the description. The pink Spacebaby is adorable, however!
  15. Not really; popular characters and instalments are still popular, so we could get a CMF that fills in the gaps and gives us characters/variants that we are unlikely you get in sets (Stealth Suit Cap, Mobius, red-and-white Falcon, Wanda’s/Vision’s/Ralph’s Halloween costumes, any of Thor’s side characters, Infinite Ultron, Strange Supreme, etc). It is also a whole year for people to play and enjoy LEGO Fortnite, so the property will be more established within both communities and sell better than Overwatch did (since those just kind of dropped out of nowhere, and were often stocked in the gaming section rather than the LEGO section!).
  16. This one is less “last words” and more “words that begin an unusual relationship with your step-relatives”! Based on set leaks (real ones, not just Ryan trolling), I doubt that it will be PG-13.
  17. Those are Sandy and Biff; they were sent to Mars on the Spirit and Opportunity rovers in 2003 (and copies were also given out as promotions on Earth).
  18. Those legs. . . 🤮 Plain yellow would have been far better, and would have freed up a print slot for Cyclops.
  19. Is he naked, or is he just wearing a skintight suit? His head is light grey and his hands are dark grey, so it seems that his skin colour is grey; he does have green markings on his head that match those on his torso, but that could just be some kind of space-moss. 🤔 What do you mean by “Space”?
  20. Ah, I knew I had seen it somewhere!
  21. That too, definitely! I think that most if not all army-builders know about PaB, or at least about BrickLink (whose sellers know about PaB). No shot we get barding in a $10 (or even $20) set, sadly! I would put Kartofski in “Maybe” and Alien Conquest Clinger in “Unlikely”; Ice Planet, M;Tron, and Blacktron II are almost certain. I doubt that we would get Rock Raiders, as we could only get one of the characters (I would rather see a full remake of the cast in the future), and I am 50/50 on Zotaxians (either UFO or Insectoids). I would add the Sea-Tron astro-diver and alien to “Likely”, since the theme has a decent following among the Space fanbase. I think that SP3 is too recent for LEGO to remake for the CMF - What could they do to update and improve the Minifigs aside from giving Brick Daddy printed legs and a cane (and maybe a fur collar if they change his headpiece)? 🫤
  22. Sorry, this thread is for unpopular opinions.
  23. Basically everyone has been rumoured to appear, so we are bound to get some DP3-‘97 crossover! I certainly hope so! Aside from a Sentinel buildable figure or mech, what else do you think that we could get?
  24. Obviously, since LEGO needs a way to make a profit off of selling individual parts; that said, I do not think that there is any other official source for parts’ individual prices that I could use to calculate the price of a hypothetical Castle battle pack.
