    I would love to see City subtheme that features castles and renaissance faires. Or maybe City subtheme sets in the past jsut like it did wiht a futuristic Space sub theme in 2024. Or at least they would introduce a neo-Fantasy Era theme. I always love a classic dragon mold (ignoring those buildable Ninjago dragons).

    I just ordered Shoppping Street online to get Vinteage Parade Car GWP on Jan 1! I wonder if there will be marching band’s uniform will show up on PAB? The tan kitten from Tudor Corner never showed up on PAB.

    Death to F1 series!!
  4. Lion King
    Yup…. I have built modular building series which they are non-licensed. I added in-house characters to my city and I add ninjas from Ninjago to my city. I add dinosaurs from licensed theme Jurassic World (i ignore the entire sets, only bought dinosaurs off eBay) to my city, creating stories out of pure imagination. Now i have my 9-month-old nephew so I will make sure he is engaged with in-house themes in future when he is old enough. It/s always important to have imagination, ratherer than replying on existing pop culture (movie, video games, play produciton). Agreed with you on everything you said.

    Exactly. I only follow this modular building series since Police Station (it was my very first modular building to build) and i love it. And I find it very hypocritical of others who don’t welcome new designers, at same time they love Tudor Corner.

    Don’t’ get me wrong but I appreciate that Jamie Berard is away from Modular Buildings series. It means that it lets newer designers come up with unique & clever buidling techiques as they have ideas. I always appreciate Jamie Berard’s work but I also appreciate low-profile designers like Hoang Dang for Shopping Street. I reallly don’t understand why AFOLs saying Jazz Club is like a Creator set or Naturali History Museum is “too much green like Parisian Restaurant”. Or even Shopping Street is a “mini—mix of Boutqiue Hotel and Assembly Square”. All I see is that different designers come with their unique ideas and I love it. I think it’s called empowerment that Jamie Berard should let different designers do after his departure from Modular Buidlings series. On the other hand, AFOLs like to buy unofficial modular buildings off rebrickables, maybe it drives the official series to decline?

    Yup i know. Space police89 has a great example of modifying fantasty sets into normal pirates. Although, don’t get me wrong but I love fantasy elements like Fantasy Era. :)
  8. Lion King
    No idea. I mean i feel like they are very familiar with existing pop culture like Harry Potter, Star Wars, Bluey, Super Mario, and see the licensed sets on shelves and they would say “Ohhhhh this look like the ones I saw before! I want it!” And don’t bother to get original in-house themes.

    As of Demcmeber 2025, there are rumors that Monkie Kid and DreamZzz will meet their ends in 2026. If it’s true, then there are no direct replacement. But it seems there are too much license themes right now, with Pokemon, One Piece, Star Trek, Bluey and a few more. I am losing my interest in majority of those licenses, except Harry Potter, Jurassic World. It’s just absurd that kids are obsessed with licensed sets like movies, video games, play produciton (Wicked). I know it sounds like it’s nostalgia but I’m jsut puzzled why kids are not into original in-house themes. Like kids from Disney’s animated Heracles are obsessed with hero so they buy stuff off shelves.
  10. Lion King
    Yeah so what? Don’t’ you prefer in-house ones over licensed ones like Pirate of the Caribbean?
  11. Lion King
    Instead of classic pirates themes, I would love to see a completely new in-house pirate themes with a fantasy spin. There are no fantasy elements in the past pirate themes, it seems. So i think it would be cool o see sea witch, kraken, sirens, sea emperor (Poseidon), mermaids, island harpies, giant sea griffins, magic-wielding pirates, treasures full of trans eggs (see DreamZzz), gems, etc. New weapons would be great like shell-thronged tridents for sea guardians, trans-red cutlass with gold hilt for pirates, etc. Maybe pirates will encounter Atlantis (not yet sunken). Is that based on classic anime or live action?
  12. Lion King
    3.) Ah gotcha, I’m pretty sure DreamZzz is about heroes crafting something out of dream materials and combat nightmarish forces in different worlds like Grim Realm and Cyber World. Just like Ninjago heroes encoutner different villains in various, wacky worlds like Seaground and Crystalizzed. I remember i was dreaming i was in a cyber-related landscape and I also dreamed there was a cinema emerging from a swimming pool where a panda was playing with its ball casually. Dreams are what DreamZzz means. It’s pretty cool to see Tiger Shark Tank, Crocodile Submarine, and Dino Jet. I don’t think they are more militaristic. 4.) I really don’t think those new trans colors are that ugly. I can understand that you prefer “a-private” trans colors for Space sets. I cannot speak for myself but I think other AFOLs might find those new trans colors very useful for their MOCs. It’s okay if you don’t like them but I’m happy for others who like those ones.
  13. Lion King
    3.) what is your question exactly? It sounds very odd to ask. 4.) Why you think trans colors are not good?

    Jay’s Brick Blog didn’t get his review up yet but I saw one review from Brick Archiect.
  15. Lion King
    American fellows, did you find Series 28 in your local stores before its release on Lego S@H?
  16. Lion King
    Just to correct you, Disney only had 3 years between their series (first series in 2016 and second in 2019). Yet it took a few extra years for Series 3 (aka Disney 100).
  17. Lion King
    I never like GWPs beucse of stickers and thick plates. I am okay with vehicles. There is no way for me to fit Corner Kiosk somewhere in my city. Those 3 add-ons are a great idea to get through PAB, especially when they include 16x32 baseplates. I have been wonderinging if they would release actual 16x32 modular building sets (not two 16x32 baseplates) just like employee-only GWP (even tho it has two 16x32 baseplates). I would love to see a small park on a 16x32 baseplate like this winter-themed one. Not a fan of wig stand. And it’s really weird to see a portable restroom with see-through walls! Of course it’s Lego so you can re-model them.
  18. Lion King
    Merry Christmas to Lego animal fans! :)
  19. Lion King
    GWP almost means nothing to me unless it looks very good.
  20. Lion King
    The piece counts almost mean nothing to me as it’s hard to predict what kind of sets they would be. But I do think one of those sets will be another dinosaur fossil. Still no info on playsets….
  21. Lion King
    Is the third series of 2026 confirmed to be D&D Series 2, right? Or is it still rumored?
  22. Lion King
    Yeah I can see a plain white hose can show up in any themes (both licensed and in-house) since it’s very genetic. No need to “heat up” this discussion, Black Falcon.
  23. Lion King
    That would be amazing if they do an exact copy of original minifigures for 50th anniiveary of min figures in 2028. I can’t predict how likely they do with classic minifigures we had numerous remakes of minifigures form beloved themes like Johnny Thunder, Dash Justice, Basil the Batlord, Mutant Blacktron, Ice Planet Explorer, M:Tron Powerlighter. Mutant Blacktorn is not exactly what Space fans were hoping tho. On other hand, I like idea of classic minifigures (as “legacy”) being introduced in every series.
  24. Lion King
    Okay, every Lego themes have their anniversaries every year. If Tahu and Lloy have their own anniversaries in CMF, did Basil the Batlord, Johnny Thunder and Dash get remakes in CMF because of their annivaries? Classic Police Officer showed up in Series 18 because he is a very first mini figure to show up in Town in 1978.
  25. Lion King
    Don’t’ City and Friends have their annievaries? So I would say “almost” everything. But I can see CMF has its reasons for anniversary stuff.
