  1. Looks like I missed it, still have only seen a super low res pic so far. I like what I've heard though, definitely interested (assuming I end up having that much money to drop on a Lego this year, which is a very big assumption haha). I think ideally we'd just get another set to bulk up the roster, but yeah, if this is all that we're getting (which seems likely going by precedent), then I do wish it would have included a few more minifigures.
  2. Wow that looks great. Ganondorf looks a bit weird without a nose, but it'd also be weird if he had one and no one else did, so I can live with it. Aside from that I have no big complaints, it could be a little cheaper but it still doesn't seem too unreasonable for what you get (at least relative to other licensed themes).
  3. Do we have any solid information on when the next wave is coming out, or is it just "some time later this year (probably summer)"?
  4. I always liked the fresh start of a new thread each year, but I wouldn't say I have particularly strong feelings on the matter, so I'm not going to be heartbroken if we just keep using this one.
  5. Seeing the sets pretty much just solidified how I felt when we first got descriptions (namely that the starters should have been separate sets), although Pikachu also looks kinda bad imo. Also also the bases for Pikachu and the starters feel a bit like they're mostly just there to jack up the price, although I won't deny that they look nice. I dunno, I love Pokemon and I'm glad they're doing a Lego line, but none of these sets interest me at all. Hopefully the rest of the year's sets are a little more exciting.
  6. My guess is that it's because of his only set also includes a big fig, which tend to be fairly desirable? But even that doesn't fully explain it, cause Killow is $120 and the one from Skybound that I forgot the name of is around $20 last I checked. None of the other Sons of Garmadon minifigures are too expensive either afaik, so maybe that set just had a really limited production for whatever reason.
  7. I wouldn't think so either, I just find it suspect that we've had probably in the ballpark of ten villain dragons over the years (I don't have time to check RN but I can think of like five off the top of my head) versus just the two big snakes. Dragons might just be more interesting for kids since they have more points of articulation, I guess? Idk
  8. This is a great idea, a larger take in particular could be really cool. I'm guessing the giant snakes don't sell particularly well though considering they've only ever done that what, twice? You'd think they'd come up more often with how many waves of snake villains we've had. But anyway yeah I'm hoping it's this.
  9. Finished building the Ninjago City Workshops yesterday, anyone have any suggestions on how to fit all the City sets together? Currently trying to figure out a nice layout that includes all five (not that I have room to keep them connected but I'd like to get some pictures at least).
  10. Not sure if anyone else has seen the piece count leaks for summer 2026 yet, but apparently Ninjago is getting four sets with over 1000 pieces? Obviously we need more details but just judging by this it looks like most of the sets for this wave are going to be pretty big.
  11. Wait that's so funny, I actually find that I tend to agree with most of points lmao. I just often don't respond to stuff cause I feel that others have already said what I'd say or that the conversation itself is mostly done. Also sometimes I might have something else to add but I don't because it's not really relevant to the topic of Lego Star Wars. But anyway no I wasn't intentionally ignoring you, I don't think I have beef like that with anyone on this site (at least as far as I know ). With regards to 2026, are we expecting to see any more sets any time soon? I kinda figured we wouldn't see M&G stuff until we're closer to the movie, but I can't remember if there's even anything else upcoming beyond that that we haven't already seen.
  12. Oh that's funny, never realized we hadn't before Also wow I totally forgot about the V-19. I wouldn't say it's super high on my priority list but it is a pretty nice set with good minifigures and a decent price, so I could see myself being tempted in the future if I see it for cheap. Also also forgot the zombie troopers pack, I'll probably get that relatively soon.
  13. I asked for the U-Wing as a gift but if I don't end up receiving it I'll probably just buy it myself since I've seen it on sale lately. Aside from that I probably won't grab anything else from Star Wars, except maybe the yellow clone pack if it goes really cheap.
  14. Well I said the Wolfpack part as a joke but I think it's a cool ship. The main appeal for me personally is more Andor content though and I'm not convinced the series is popular enough to get a price point big enough for the Fondor. Granted I'm not particularly convinced Andor is popular enough to get anything else period, but if it happens then I think the Avenger would be a good pick for another set (also idk how often you visit the forum but it's a running joke on here atp so I was leaning into that).
  15. Very exciting! Curious to see what percentage of the build is Ganon vs the terrain. I feel like Ganon doesn't really need to be that big since he's not particularly huge in Ocarina of Time, but I could see him being scaled up somewhat to allow for more detail.
  16. Lego coming in next summer with the Wolfpack Prototype Tie Avenger (retails for $180).
  17. Imagine if we got Savage Opress instead haha. Definitely less likely but it doesn't feel completely out of the question with how much CW and Maul stuff has been popping up lately.
  18. The blacksmith shop looks awesome. Kinda small for the price but it's so dense and detailed that it does make up for it imo. I wish we got more stuff like this, maybe we will in the future if this one does well?
  19. I don't know why, but I just looked at the Shock Trooper mech again and it made me laugh. It's not even a bad set, I think it's probably the best set of those in the leaks? But that's why I find it funny I suppose, it's ridiculous that this is what LSW is coming to. Hopefully the rest of the year looks a bit better.
  20. It'll be a shame if they do that, when I was younger I always thought his armor being titanium was so cool. It really makes that design feel distinct even all these years later.
  21. That's my feeling on the masks too, they're nice but I don't see why everyone has to be gold. As far as Nya is concerned, I'm guessing she'll be Samurai X since that was her design for the 2012 wave? But I guess if it's based more on the show then there's an argument to be made that her 2011 design makes more sense.
  22. Wow those look fantastic. Very excited to see the rest of them
  23. Agreed on the pricing point. Maybe Lego just doesn't care because there'll always be a cohort of rabid fans who buy a hundred of them day one, but I feel like raising the price is going to probably end up having some negative ramifications for them. If they absolutely had to, I think it would have made sense to just decrease the volume of stuff in the battle pack. No one really cares about the builds 90% of the time, they could have massively downscaled them and kept the price lower right? Idk exactly how the economics of battle packs work though, maybe the minifigures are way more expensive than the rest of the bricks and the only way to keep them cheaper would have been to make them only have three minifigures or something.
  24. I think Lego should kill two birds with one stone by releasing a Tie Avenger that includes Boss Nass. But yeah some more leaks would be nice, at the very least I'd like to see the complete figures for the parts that have leaked already.
  25. I'm actually really curious how long the average person lurks before making an account. I probably waited longer than most, I don't remember exactly how long it was but I remember seeing a leaked set list for the Ninjago ghost wave so I must have been checking it out since at least like 2014? Yeah that's insane, I would've assumed it had a whole technic skeleton. I guess they just assumed that if you're spending a grand on the thing you're going to be treating it more carefully than you're firstborn, but it's still wild.
