Two new Creator 3 in 1 sets have leaked in the usual place. Creator Space Rollercoaster and Main Street.

The Villains set does look interesting. The Duos, not so much. Like the two creator sets that leaked too.

I already got mine. Found them in a Target a couple of weeks ago. I just need to get doubles of a handful of them so not about to gamble on a 6 pack box.

Mostly some Star Wars & the Disney CMF's

Maybe the site is getting slammed somehow by other countries that can buy already. I know they are different websites but who knows. Maybe it's just people trying to get ready for midnight.

Can't even get into the US website right now. I'm in the waiting room. Finally got in. No new parts yet.

Must get multiples of the Seal Battle pack. Will have to see what else comes with the Orca. If it's just a big expedition ship I'll be stalking PAB waiting for them to sell the orca. The only ships I collect are pirate ones.

Definitely agree. I was working on an order last night & when I went to add some more to it & up the quantities of items I had in there nothing was happening. I gave up at that point. This morning there were a few random items I had test added (nothing was showing as added last night) in the mix so I had to delete them. I still haven't finalized the order yet but the new layout with the menu dropdowns on the left is a pain.

Sorry to say I'm not too thrilled with Dobby. I was really looking forward to him but he seems a bit too blocky & square, kind of like an oversized & extended but not in a good way brickheadz. I like his head but the body just seems oversimplified. I guess I was expecting something a bit more rounded & fleshed out like Grogu & Hedwig. And the cake is just a bunch of cheap parts I have plenty of so easily replicated.

I'm interested because of the Owl Post Shop & all the new minifigs. Probably can use some of the WWW parts to make changes/improvements to the original build in Diagon Alley.

Best Sellers aren't a problem. It's the standard parts that take forever. Had to call customer service again for parts missing from my February 16 order. It was missing 2 of the 12 1x3 with 2 studs on top Iordered. But they did throw in an extra Lattic 1/2 for the 1x4x3 window frame so now I have an odd number of those.

I'm blaming all these Disney 100 Little Mermaid sets being based on the live action version on Bob 2.0 (Cheapek). That person tried desperately to destroy almost 100 years of Disney history, legacy and business practices committed to excellent values & service all to make a name and buck for himself. He's the one who was in charge at the time these sets would have been being planned & approved. From what I've seen so far much of the 100 years celebration, not just Lego, seems to be focused on the past 10 years or so of mediocre Disney IP, recent Pixar & Marvel with Lucasfilm thrown in rather than the rest of the previous 100 years of classic Disney. This is not to say that they shouldn't be remaking anything or diversifying their portfolio more. But as others have said much of what they've been doing of late throughout the company is pure cash grab with little or no thought of nostalgia and history.

Per their article: "Minifigures should therefore not be there." That still doesn't sound definitive either. So I hope we at least get a Dobby minifig with it. But at least they didn't go on to speculate exactly what figures would be included in any of the sets. I'd also still like to know if the June releases will actually be released in June in North America or if we will once again have to wait until August.

I didn't get anything in the way of definite new details out of her video other than the wand thing. She basically reiterated the names of the sets & current suggested rrp. Everything else she said was pure speculation from what I could tell based on the wording she used. And the long winded gripe about being wrong about the Knight bus was totally unnecessary. I'm finding her videos to be a total waste of my time as she's never sure about the details she's spouting regarding anything she is reporting. I get that they have embargos but I'm sick of all the teasers that are really still just speculation. Why, just so they can say they "guessed" correctly once the embargo gets lifted? Also she said absolutely nothing in regards to whether or not the Dobby set would include a minifig so I don't know why someone earlier said the set definitely won't.

Good thing I'm not holding my breath. At least I already got the parts I wanted from the Police Dog Training Set.

Receipt shows: 204001379 LEGO 71028

Nope. They rang up as Series 24. I used the self checkout. Receipt shows: 204001379 LEGO 71028 They are actually Lego 71038. This is the first time since the Marvel series that I've actually found any in a Target other than a handful of the series 24 ones once right after the holidays. I did find Muppet ones months after release & long after I had gotten all I wanted elsewhere. I think it's easier for them to stop the sale of the big sets because they are probably input into the computer correctly. But the CMF's they must just code all the same because they usually scan as the previous series if you buy them before the street date.

I scored the Disney CMF'S in a Target earlier today. Managed to get at least one each of the ones I wanted.

Yes, Kathleen Kennedy likes to erase things that will sell well while destroying canon. I seriously don't get why she is still in charge. Can't imagine George would really approve a lot of what she's been schilling lately.

I hope they don't do this with the Harry Potter theme. The SW dioramas are way overpriced. A good portion of the included parts go into making an unnecessary baseplate to hold the quote. I like some of the Star Wars ones but I won't buy them because of all the wasted bricks that go into the boring black bases. It's also a big factor in my decision to skip last years oversized Hogwart's Express where they also wasted so many bricks on the base portion.

Getting a little impatient waiting for new January parts to be added. Of course my wallet is happy but also fearful that they will finally show up once the next big wave of newness gets released.

Finally found the Temple of the Golden Idol set on Target.com and they've listed it @ $169.99 and it's out of stock already. Just why are people spending over rrp for these sets? They were just released. I will impatiently await a restock at rrp or an unlikely sale price elsewhere. I may suffer a little FOMO but not enough to pay over rrp for a new set anywhere.

Not a fan of mechs either but these are cute.

The description I read was it would be sized similar to the little Haunted Mansion Set & small Disneyworld 50th Castle set. A bigger one like the Ice Castle could have been impressive. I find the small ones to be way overpriced for the size of the build.

They did the same thing with one of the Disney Princess sets last year. Not double the price elsewhere but I think it was a 25% markup. I e-mailed them about it but never got a response. About a month later they lowered the price to rrp. I bought my Tomb set from Barnes & Noble because they were the only ones around here that actually had it in stock. I was considering ordering the Plane one from Target but won't because they are charging over rrp. Just waiting for Lego or someone else to get the Temple in without a month wait for delivery. Not placing an order with Amazon for delivery a month out just to have it ordered.
