    It looks great! Just saw it on Rebrickable and will investigate further. Thanks for making instructions for this.

    I'm doing Rebelnini's lusher trees addition for Rivendell and half-way through the council tree. The smaller trees look so much better and the council tree is great too. I was fortunate enough to find the three leaf stem 37695 in the Pick a Brick wall of a LEGO store and got a box full, which will mean full steam ahead on the lusher trees for both The Shire and the Sméagol and Déagol GWP (which require nearly 500 of them together, which would cost $60 through the LEGO website), so I will do the same for those when I build them. I was putting them off as the trees look so bad in the original set and the lusher trees addition make it decent. Not sure if I'll do the other extensions or not though.

    I completely agree and hope they go this route.

    Someone on Reddit, before the leaked torso, said they spoke to a LEGO store manager who claimed to have seen a list of upcoming sets which included a TOS bridge. I didn't think this happened, but who knows, maybe it does and the leak points towards it? Either way, it's interesting that they have another set in the works this early. I suppose it makes sense to try and maximize the license.

    I voted for three of them, but none of them were my top pick in their categories. They're all extremely good, but it feels like the very models missed out sadly. Really sad that Moonlight Flight didn't make it, as that's a glorious little model!

    And it would be sensible to give this theme a larger mould budget as each one will be very popular and sought after. But maybe there's a risk that they reach the limit of the parts design department who make fewer moulds for other themes, unless they go on a hiring spree.

    I don't know anything about Pokémon, but it looks cute.
  8. RichardGoring
    It looks very well done. I don't have room for it, or sufficient interest in the subject matter, but I'd love to try the build one day, which looks excellent.
  9. RichardGoring
    Yes, probably close enough. Although I think steampunk and cyberpunk may have got confused somewhere in the thread.

    You know what? I would not be surprised. Let's make a battlepack that people are crying out for, but put it as a limited release that is ALSO behind a huge paywall. As opposed to $20 and general release, which it should be.
  11. RichardGoring
    Agreed!
  12. RichardGoring
    I love that model so much. It looks amazing and the angles make it feel so real. The tower could probably do with being a bit taller and more detailed, but I think it nails the scale and feeling of size, without it having to go deeper than a baseplate, which is very helpful.
  13. RichardGoring
    Agreed, it looks great, but oh my, if they leave it as a single set, it will be such a shame not to get the classic outfits on the figures!
  14. RichardGoring
    Yes, that's a good call. Or the microscale or village option. Maybe a shame, but at the same time a lot of fun could be had with any of those options. Agreed, that would be great. I liked both stations, but Studgate felt too large while Brick Cross felt too small.

    There is an Icons 18+ Haunted House coming in September (1420 pieces, $110). I wonder if this will be modular compatible, at least in terms of scale. It's double the piece count of 31167, but not much more expensive, suggesting it could be a more detailed build of about the same size. Or maybe larger but with fewer/less expensive figures. Seems odd to have two haunted houses released within a year.
  16. RichardGoring
    Fascinating. What did you answer? I think a Steampunk set would be cool as there's lots of potential for fun little mechanisms. Sets from real world IPs would likely be a different scale from the standard modulars. Things like Home Alone and The Simpsons are larger than the modulars in terms of their scale, while the Dr Strange Sanctum Santorum and Daily Bugle feel much smaller, and I don't think either look good next to the standard modulars, but do look good in isolation.

    In the US I'm still getting printed order details for both bestseller (from the US) and standard (from Europe).
  18. RichardGoring
    Am I getting confused? They've done dark/earth blue in Dreamzzz and released on PAB, so dark blue is complete, isn't it? But in general, I agree, that the torso is probably the driver for more pieces to come to complete it, rather than the other way around. Edit: Oh, I didn't see the next page with the same comment. D'Oh!
  19. RichardGoring
    Oh, no criticism, just a confirmation that it seems to be a reliable source and that a quote extract is better than a long video. I usually hate just posting a link without some kind of thought/extract from it to provide information, but there was a lot in it, even just referencing the book.
  20. RichardGoring
    Ah yes, that is one better. The video references that book and this part as a core source.
  21. RichardGoring
    DiuckBricks has a pretty in-depth video on the five year 'rule' for mould storage.
  22. RichardGoring
    My recent orders have been to complete builds or MOCs, so it's a fairly standard part list. Not done an order just for interesting parts for a while, although a could sneak in here and there, doesn't feel special enough to show off specifically.
  23. RichardGoring
    I'd love either, ideally both. The mouse is so cute, but you could make a nice scene with a flock of flamingos.
  24. RichardGoring
    Excellent! They look great.
  25. RichardGoring
    They look good. I wonder if the clown fish will be in a future set, and if so, will it cost less than $5 on Pick a Brick...
