  1. It seems that this IP CMF is generally being received positively by many collectors. I wonder how soon Lego would consider releasing another CMF? In 2 years? I ordered two full sets and now I am really thinking of ordering a third one.
  2. Is there a supply issue with BAM parts? Since the previous batch (green queen, etc.), there has not been much supply, it seems. I have messaged several prolific eBay sellers and they all say that it has been hard to get a complete set since the last batch.
  3. I would definitely agree with those choices! But with the Clamshell being the controversy that it is, it may perhaps take them more time to come up with another mermaid-themed set. We have all been clamoring for that!!! But again, since they decided to release the current version of the castle, Beast's castle may take a while. However, they could perhaps feature a vignette??? What a cool idea!!! I would definitely buy that!!! But we all know why Lego/ Disney would not produce this - to protect those micro doll sets. I almost feel like that someone at Lego/ Disney wants to keep this theme for "little girls only."
  4. Thinking about the Snow White cottage more... I wonder if Lego might consider releasing one D2C every year or two about other classic fairy tales? Weren't we supposed to get a Maleficent dragon set but that got canceled [bummer!]. It is great that Lego released the Snow White set ahead of the upcoming remake because there appears to be no saving that moving, telling by all the internet backlash! I do think Lego should focus on classics. Aurora and Belle will be needing their princes to make an appearance.
  5. With Bruno in the latest set, they ought to make Mirabel!
  6. Perhaps because her cottage showed up several times in Ideas submissions and they thought she was very much sought after? Yes, more minifigs!!! Merida!!! Is she the only other princess not yet made in minifig form???
  7. I would really love for them to start making more characters longitudinally- meaning adding more characters to complement previously released ones. We got Gaston, then now Belle, but how about Beast? yes, definitely the rest of the Peter Pan and Alice crews!!!
  8. I'm very excited with the inclusion of Geppetto!!! I wonder which brick they used for Lilo's skirt? Is it a regular 1x2 brick? Or perhaps a slope? The very slow release of Beauty and the Beast characters is killing me - They released a Gaston. Now a Belle in a different set. When is Beast coming??? Other major princesses have had their princes released already.
  9. Not an invalid point. The right leg is important, but how about the left? I guess Lego is balancing out the previous Villains set?
  10. That’s the only positive I could think of. I have to agree with some of the comments on Reddit about Bruno not being iconic enough.
  11. Gotta thank Lego for making me save my money. Now I might just get a third DnD set.
  12. Well, Lego always thought that their products are for kids and they even went into financial trouble until SW came along. Case in point, Lego has always made Disney as '...little girls' toys...' but grown ups also would like to collect Disney but in minifig form.
  13. SW minifigs always gets bespoke molds and the recently released DnD CMFs got really good prints. Makes me wonder why Lego flounders so much when it comes to Disney minifigs.
  14. Can anyone help identify this slope? It is the inverted white slope where Bullseye (horse) stands on: https://www.ebay.com/itm/234531765237 I typed "inverted slope" and "inverted slope 33" on BL and could not find it! Thanks!
  15. Perhaps sellers are hoarding? How many hundreds of Cinderella are there for sale and only 5 Rapunzel??? Perhaps the Rapunzel figure was slightly more expensive than the rest at the beginning and many sellers saw the opportunity so they hoarded those minifigs. Even after the castle release, I have very seldom seen a seller with a full roster. They are always missing a minifig or two. Perhaps keeping it for later sale.
  16. Why did Rapunzel 'disappear' from BL??? There are only a few retailers left with this minifig, but the rest of the castle minifigs are available? and I thought she was not accurate?
  17. I happened to be in Berlin which is my last stop of my European vacation (after London, then Vienna). I completely forgot that the current BAM is not available in the USA and only here in Europe. I was able to get most of the BAM items from the Berlin store. Notably, the green queen torso is only available if you ask one of the associates, and then he asks his manager. I got every minifig except the black uniform Lego employee which I forgot to ask about. It is currently Sunday now so they are already closed and I am flying out tomorrow.
  18. I would definitely buy a DC CMF! Another idea is a BTAS CMF!!! With all the villains referenced in the BTAS wall art, they could definitely do quite a bit.
  19. I think an Iron-Man themed building would be great! The main character is popular enough to stand alone without the help of a new movie or streaming series. I would like a Fantastic Four building, too but you are right about it possibly not being popular enough without a new movie.
  20. Perhaps they could make a GWP, or a small follow up set with Oogie. I do think GWP is unlikely as we probably have heard of this by now. Not a bad idea. What big seasonal sets do they have going on now? Just CNY and Xmas?
  21. Wicked sets officially revealed. Of course they are all mini dolls. I badly need a Glinda plus a Wizard in minifig form!
  22. I wonder what next year's big Marvel D2C will be? 2021: Daily Bugle 2022: Sanctum Sanctorum 2023: Avengers Tower 2024: X-Mansion 2025: (hopefully non-Avengers, LOL)
  23. Maybe they should alternate each year between a Santa-set and and an actual village set?
