  1. Chicken and egg. They ought to make the minifig sets good enough for fans to buy. So many missed opportunities with the choices Lego has made for the castles and D2Cs. Ditto.
  2. I wonder... did the minifig collectors convert to buildable collectors? Or there are just so few people wanting more minifigs???
  3. When the Black Falcons were reissued, Lego came up with a chain mail version: plain on the front with a logo on the back on a red background, simulating a cape. I always thought they could have kept it generic/ without the logo and could have been the chain mail version for a couple of factions, just with varying accessories. Seems Lego is changing strategies. But I really prefer they give us at least two variations of bespoke prints/ torsos for each faction. The Horse Knights have two versions of torsos and legs. Amazing! Everything else has so far only gotten one.
  4. I think the recent LOTR releases are best to display as a location set rather than a diorama set. They are great standalone displays with a backdrop. IMHO.
  5. Which year can we again expect to get two non-licensed series in that same calendar year?
  6. They are so averse to ethnic groups! They used to have a line of Japanese themed figs and now all we get is Ninjago, even in the CMF line! The only other group featured is ancient/ traditional Chinese with the CNY/ LNY sets. I would really love for them to continue featuring ethnic groups in the CMF line! Native Americans, Japanese, etc.
  7. I usually populate my official and MOC modulars with CMF and BAM characters. LOL
  8. X-Men '97 season 2 is premiering next month ~ I wonder if we might get some nod to this next year? A small set, a D2C, or just a minifig included in another set???
  9. I'm guessing if this is really a Crow Knight, then it will be a female figure?
  10. Such a well sought-after figure, and Lego would be foolish to feature just another fig in CMF! A Crow faction should make a guest appearance in any upcoming castle set!
  11. Well-desrved for your excellent creation! Really love the rounded walls! Was it just last year that Lego/ BDP hinted that they wanted to move away from 'castles' for the BDP picks but here they are picking this and the Elven Citadel! They know what makes money and a good design sells really well!!!
  12. Funny that the factions that do not feature logos on their torsos always get the Hylian shield.
  13. Nothing against Ninjago but those characters are already covered under that theme... why did Lego have to give us Lloyd for the CMF and not an actual traditional Japanese ronin??? They should continue the Japanese minifigs they started some time back! I'd like to see Oni close to the traditional. I wonder if it would be a) minifig costume; b) monster costume; or c) some mythical creature that fits into the Krakens lore??? Would love to see someone from Mad Max!
  14. What happened to the Kraken torso? I could not find it anymore on PaB online. Griffins, Snakes, Horses, are still there.
  15. Wow! These almost do not look like they are Lego! Nice layout as well!
  16. The Elf Wizard and Dwarf Cleric from the D&D castle would go well with that Elven Citadel, if only there were elven hairpieces. But I think those torso's are IP locked.
  17. The only item I voted for is that flower cart! Would go well with the newspaper stand.
  18. I like the combination of the different colored bricks - looks quite unique!
  19. Are you guys displaying Minas Tirith with the attack ongoing below? Saw a photo on google and it looked nice, although I think Minas Tirith on its own is better. Someone needs to come up with a MOC of the battle as a separate display.
  20. Better than any mech I have ever seen from Lego or on Rebrickable!!! Great job!
  21. Now that you're at it... also a male and female in Hawaiian shirts!
  22. How do you go about ordering a large number of items from PaB? I uploaded the CSV file from Rebrickable and it gave an error message that it was way too many. How do you split the items in a CSV list into several files???
  23. The very least that Lego could do is just give us another torso. Not necessarily a bespoke one for this but a 'new' one similar to what I wrote as 'Option 1' above. Then people can just buy Elven hairpieces from BL.
  24. Lego seems to be 'opening' a LOT of new themes recently... Pokemon, Hello Kitty, Dragonball Z, etc... It almost feels like they are starting a lot of fires but not fanning the flames so to speak. They are just extracting what they can from the novelty of all these themes.
