Missed some of those torsos. Will have a search at the weekend to see if they're still in production and available.

Who needs consistency of whether you get eye prints or not? Not LEGO crabs/lobsters, fish/sharks and rays, or parrots/all other birds. I feel like a broken record, but I'd love to get updated crabs, fish, and parrots in a modern style with eye prints.

Reading 41 pages is certainly dedication! Welcome to the forum, and thanks for sharing your background story and thoughts on it.

They new figures are terrific. Looking forward to them.

Another vote in the looks great, but too expensive for what's shown camp. Maybe there are side builds to build it up a lot to get to the price point.

That's a fair analogy, thanks. In which case, let's hope there is a reveal soon.

I get that buying sets on impulse isn't great, but to be fair, the sets are available for at least a year, often far more. Couldn't that mulling be done for several months after release? No criticism, just wondering. I very rarely but things on release day, unless the is a specific incentive to do so that outweighs what might come later.

Nice idea, but it would be, I think, so much better if they did different types of monkey for each player. Would they be so bold as to include apes too? So you could use the monkey, chimp, and new gorilla. And then at least more new mould for a different species.

I wish there were more photos of the train shed, from more angles. I really like it, but it took me a while to realize just how big it is. The photos' angles make it look much smaller and cozy, not a really long shed. It's lovely, but I think it's too big for me to get. Brick Cross Station on the other hand... It will be mine!

It will be awesome for Storm!

Oh wow, those are amazing. Love the llama head and clown too! The polar bear is great. I didn't get the set, and it was pricey on PAB.

I have no idea. The OP on Reddit said they were in the Barcelona store. Posted on the AFOL sub, which doesn't usually have much click bait for free Internet points, so I assume it's real.

Someone on Reddit is reporting that one of the new printed butterflies, a grey squirrel, and a dark tan bulldog are all part of the BAM line up now. Linked in the BAM thread. https://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?/forums/topic/55712-lego-store-build-a-minifigure/&do=findComment&comment=3677081

Some great looking figures apparently in BAM stations, reported on Reddit. Anyone seen these? https://www.reddit.com/r/AFOL/s/d6PeOUvV7t

The rear tyres are the first thing you notice looking at it, and they're far too thin. Such a shame. The nose isn't ideal, but I might have been able to ignore it, but with the skinny rear tyres, it's just not right. In fact, are the front tyres a bit too narrow as well? I suppose it's a problem of trying to use LEGO, for something this intricate where the lines and geometry are everything, and then doing it at this scale. Who knows, official images and other angles may help, but this is a pretty decent photo. Again, a shame.

What a shame that the BTAS Batmobile is $60. It seems like such a big jump. On the other hand, I hope there's a load of stuff in there that justifies the price and delights us all. With the prices, it's probably the only one that interests me, sadly. At least it doesn't have the Joker in it.

No, I don't think so. I assumed there, sorry. I'd forgotten that Eldorado Fortress was generally available, and thinking about LKC. If so, there's a possibility.

I would love an extension to the Ideas set. I built a wonderful version of Chemical Plant Zone by Carbohydrates on Rebrickable and I'm thinking of how I might do a Marble Hill Zone (after seeing the 1x4 masonry bricks in lavender on the PAB wall). Personally, I'd love to see them do a Casino Night Zone level, as that feels like it would be particularly tricky to do, although it also feels very unlikely.

They don't normally have D2Cs at the toy fairs, do they?

Isn't that an automatic ban from Euro bricks?

Please don't!

A BTAS UCS Batmobile in the same scale as the other UCS sets would be awesome. Although if it were in the same scale, presumably longer than the Concorde model, which may be tricky! It's probably the only remaining bat vehicle I'd consider getting at UCS scale.

They didn't at the time I ordered, on the PAB website, any I didn't take the tint to look on other sites. But I figure they are pretty cheap, and it's always good to have a variety of heads. The eye patch with silver mustache is Mr Oz from Dreamzzz, but he normally has a moulded beard and mustache, so you don't see it, which seems a shame!

If they do offer an exclusive GWP, it sometimes doesn't happen until a while after release. Either way, I'd only buy it on release if there was something specific to it, and if not, happy to wait until something comes along that makes it better value. I finally got Rivdendell over the VIP weekend in November, and even then, only built it over the last few weeks, finishing last night. Have to say, it was pretty excellent. The final tree was fiddly, but otherwise, thought the process was great, and I love how it looks. I enjoyed being able to use a few of the spare pieces to add some detail to Gandalf's staff too. And using the space in the tower to store the spare minifigure elements.

These are all the ones that I arrived. I can't remember which ones had no image, but there are some fun ones in there:
