Same, though the possibility of an anniversary Minifig has not been ruled out.

A new mould would obviously be ideal, but I think that Autumn's hair would look better than the standard ponytail (which is even shorter!). Agreed to disagree as you said, I suppose. This is literally the only thing that LEGO DC has over LEGO Marvel! 😬

TBH, anything other than 501st in Grogu's escape is copium; while other options do exist, we all know what the cheapest and most likely option for LEGO is.

Fair point, but that (or making a new mould) was necessary for the set to have bardings; halberds can be brickbuilt, so that is a less necessary piece to bring back. 🫤 All of these besides the dragon plumes and oval shield appeared in the LKC (and the latter is still in production), so recolouring some parts and making a few new prints should be easy to do for the Town Square. Also, the Black Knights used triangle shields too, so the oval one is not 100% necessary. If the torso is similar enough to the original, then he would still be faithful even with a printed skirt (robe) piece (which I hope that he has, as I prefer it). I mostly agree; to truly be Dragon Masters, they need unique helmet and plume pieces (though not necessarily the exact pieces that the originals used). Ew. No. Helmets and plumes should be separate, for customisation purposes! They could get around the four part requirement by moulding wings onto the helmet itself, so only the dragon plume needs a new mould. A thought: We have been assuming that the set will include either Dragon Masters (as the original did) or Lion Knights (because LKC), but what if we get a new faction that appears in the Town Square as well. Maybe Black Knights or crossed-axe Lions? That would still allow LEGO to offset the part cost, but also to give us something in the GWP that we have not already army-built on PAB/BrickLink! 🤔

That was over ten years ago, so sadly no shot; the most that I expect is a brickbuilt halberd like the one from the blacksmith. I concur Re: the shield, though; I would be extremely disappointed if we get specifically a shieldsmith but no classic shields!

2003 for both.

It really comes down to whether the Dragon Masters appear in the village or not. I can see the shield being included in the shieldsmith’s shop, so that just leaves their torso and legs (they could just use black nasal helms instead of the more iconic dragon helmets). Maybe we finally get a generic armour/mail torso and legs that can be used for any faction (see scale mail Black Knights)?

Same, but unless LEGO plans to reuse them, I doubt that we will be getting any new moulds!

From Discord: 40601 Majisto’s Magical Workshop Update: Should be based on 6048, but will be bigger and include three Minifigs; Majisto, two knights (faction unknown).

True, but I feel like there would need to be a bit of conflict in the set for it to feel like an “escape”.

Pic?

These look really good - Now you need to make Space Police, Blacktron II, M;Tron, and Spyrius versions! 👍 BTW, how do the CS white and CS grey ones look with trans-light blue and trans-bright green canopies respectively?

Also a $90 set (not sure what it is yet) and a hoverbike polybag. While 60434 is probably going to be an Earth-based set, there is a chance that it could turn out to be a moonbase of some kind; considering the mech, “interstellar” spaceship, and aliens, I can see the base being more sci-fi than past sets have been. Maybe something like the upcoming Medieval Town Square; that is, based on classic sets, but not a direct recreation?

I meant Autumn’s. Autumn has a ponytail with a messy top part that looks more like Jean’s animated hair than any other part that I can think of; obviously, it would need to be recoloured, though!

Who else would be included? Shocks and Shinies are in the battle pack, and Naboo guards would prevent the set from having any antagonists. BTW, @itsjustajoe is hinting at Beskar Moff over on Discord; nothing on whether he will be in a set or just an anniversary Minifig, nor who his source is, though.

To be fair, we already have a number of actual gods in Minifig form, so maybe the Chinese market is something of an exception to LEGO’s “no religion” policy. Also, a Lunar New Year celebration at a Buddhist temple would be a respectful portrayal of the religion/culture in-question, so I doubt that anyone would genuinely be offended by it.

Maybe as a diorama (like the Endgame and NWH battle sets)? We already have AoU Cap and Nat (from this set), so it is odd that they were not included in the Tower. 🤔

You actually got me for a solid 5-10 seconds!

MK.4 has a round reactor (it is the suit seen at the beginning of Iron Man 2); MK.6 has the triangle reactor, and is the suit seen in the final fight (as well as in the first half of Avengers).

Just swap the head for a red/dark red/trans-red one, so that it looks like a mouth.

Maybe? The lute mould (in fact, all parts aside from the legs and plume!) appeared in the CMF bard before also being used in the Lion Knights' Castle, so I can see a Medieval goatherd CMF with a torso and goat that get reused in the village.

We got the T-Rex costume in Series 24.

Force ghost Wu confirmed! The Wyldness-is-Chima theory lives on! /copium

This set is very mid, which for its size and price, it cannot afford to be.

Those lines are just grooves and a light on his armour; plenty of Mandos have them (such as the Fetts and the base Death Watch warrior from TCW). It is a very good choice for an army-builder - You are welcome!
