    How about this transforming Game Boy by Baron Von Brunk?

    The shape of that first spaceship is really unique. I like how it has sort of a fat face. Sometimes you want tough instead of sleek. The heli-airship is also really cool. I'm not sure I've seen that before...wait yes I have: Super Mario 3! Also, Bayformers, eww! J/K.

    Wow @Digger of Bricks, you might convert me into a Steampunk fan. Those submersibles are amazing. They've got a cool 5000 Leagues Under the Sea vibe too.

    Just make a Themed Creator Expert line. Done. One deluxe Castle, Space, and other (Pirate/Western) set a year. If only Lego just asked ME what to do all the time, things would be so easy.

    Probably one of the few cases where a ridiculous spoiler makes sense!

    Jim, thank you so much for asking these questions! Very interesting and honestly I find the answer somewhat encouraging. Of course I'm hoping you've planted the seed for them to try out a Classic themed Creator set. It's funny how people think the appeal of Classic Space is just nostalgia but that Star Wars is different. It's like dude, the Star Wars Snow Speeder is pure nostalgia! It's 38 years old and hasn't been in a movie since!

    There was even another contest entry that was similar. It may not be a totally original idea but I don't consider it a rip off or anything.

    This is just a rumor right now but:

    I had to go back to 2016 to find one a Creator set with a molded animal. https://shop.lego.com/en-US/Fountain-40221 Personally I kinda like brick build animals. And I'd definitely take a large brick build animal or beast over a big Duplo-looking molded one.

    Can we? Can we please?
  14. danth
    Agreed. I definitely don't see it.

    Many Creator sets have no minifigs but many do. The Space Shuttle and Island Adventures are two recent examples. And all the houses/modulars. Plain or generic figs are perfect for any kind of themed sets we are suggesting here. For instance a generic Knight or Spaceman. I totally agree that being generic is one of the nice things about Creator. Which is why we're suggesting it expand into generic, archetypal settings like "space" or "castle" where generic minifigs would make sense.

    Sure, more or less. "Not when in theaters" is my main point. And it's an important point when there is no end in sight for Star Wars movies. Ain't that the truth...

    But but but...if you don't like what Lego is making now...just don't buy it. See? Isn't that totally helpful and not condescending? (And totally isn't code for "if you don't like it shut up"). And yes that is sarcasm. I hate it when people say that. The whole point of internet forums is to commiserate with fellow fans.

    Yes, Star Wars sets were release at all times during the last 20 years. But non-licensed Space sets were only released while Star Wars movies were not in theaters. Except for the sole year of 2001 which was in between Phantom Menace and Attack of the Clones.

    Demonstrably not true.

    Has the definition of evergreen changed to whatever is currently on the shelves? Is Nexo Nights evergreen? I thought it was canceled? Anyway, what I meant by evergreen was regular old themes like City, Castle, Pirates, and Space. Themes with no stories, no named characters, no cartoons and video games. Themes where nothing is thrust upon you except a very basic/generic setting archetype. The old Ninja sets met this criteria. Ninjago does not. Now, don't jump to conclusions here -- I'm not saying Ninja was awesome and Ninjago sucks. I actually think Ninjago sets are pretty cool. But they are different and they satisfy different styles of play.

    Not only do I not want to buy them, I want to complain about them online with other people who feel the same. If that bothers you, you can option your right to not read my posts. Uh, do you know what thread you're in? The whole point is there aren't non-licensed evergreen themes (other than City) available.
  22. danth
    That looks REALLY cool.

    I buy Classic Space sets on bricklink. That doesn't mean I don't want Lego to make non-licensed sci-fi sets. Sealed vintage sets are expensive as hell, and used vintage sets are always missing pieces and are hard to get in decent shape. Also there is something to be said for walking into a store and seeing cool Lego sets that you actually want to buy instead of more done-to-death Star Wars designs.

    I'm really surprised this one did not even get runner up status.
  25. danth
    For real! I wonder if we've hit peak Star Wars fatigue yet or if they can manage to ram even more down our throats. It's not like the new movies are even that good...
