Tales of Old happens before BotBS in the timeline? Judging by the coat of arms it is a Castle RPG? Can we consider BotBS dead at this point?

Fantastic models They looks like movie props! So you play some kind of tabletop game with the Star Wars figures @DarthTwoShedsJackson?

Amazing diorama The houses look fantastic and there are so many great details like the broken windows, like the graffiti and brickbuild shop signs, the surveillance cameras and ATM, the cars and many more! And there are so many stories, like the cop hiding in the bushes or the zombie chained to the downpipe. And the diorama is huge! Great job all around

You quoted me too fast I think the price at ALDI was 2,99€ but I don't remember exactly. 2€ Damn, I have not been in a Netto for years. If only I knew they had the D&D series! Everywhere I went, the scalpers had cleared everything. It was the same for the Wolfpack Beastmaster. I only got one because a fellow AFOL sent me one as a gift. But I never found one in a store. Maybe the Horse Knight King would qualify as a CMF minifig. Actually, the crown and hair piece was introduced with a CMF minifig 10 years ago.

To bad there's no Netto anywhere near me The price was 2,99€ like for the F1 CMF at ALDI? That is exactly why I wrote "detailed CMF quality minifigs" because for me there is a differents between that and regular minifigs that are available at PAB. For example the Wolfpack beastmaster comes with printed arms and legs, a shield, a non-standard cape and a wolf versus the Wolfpack guy from the Town square. Of course it is best to get as many variations as possible for kitbashing, so both are welcome.

Not all fans of POTC

A normal series would be welcome and give us the chance to get some historic minifigs. Castle, Pirates,....

Okay, now it is reported that next year's May CMF will be unlicensed. Fingers crossed

This This would be amazing! Such a ship I would buy! I mean, the Black Pearl looks good for an official set and I rated it 8/10, but personally I have zero interest in a black ship

Yeah, same here. Another wasted year. The F1 CMF even showed up at German ALDI discount supermarkets for a reduced price. You know what that means Something like this would never happen with a castle or history themed CMF. If Lego would do a castle CMF it would be the best selling CMF by far. People would buy the minifigs in great masses. But the thing is, if people could buy detailed CMF quality castle minifigs for €3,99, would they still buy the overpriced sets? I hope Lego proves me wrong, but I think that's the reason why we did not get one yet and it looks bad for the future imo.

Yes it is exhausting! It's like a whole new hobby. Feels like people are more interested to get recognition as a designer of a Ideas or Bricklink set than building with Lego. Lego bricks are just a necessity to get there. Same goes for all the rebrickable ads. Its not a hobby but a business. So why they have to spam hobby forums?

I wonder how stable the whole DS slice is? The thing is hugh and the base is so small. It looks like it could topple over at any time.

Don't shoot the messanger I just picked what I had read in this forum or elsewhere.

Here you go

A ship of dreams begins to sail, Lego bricks tell a daring tale, Captain Jack, bold and free, Sets his pirate vessel free. Sails unfurl, the adventure calls, Hidden treasures, secret halls, Brick by brick, the legend grows, A pirate’s life, in vibrant shows. Raise the mast, let stories flow, Captain Sparrow’s world in glow. A masterpiece for young and old, Black Sails billow, adventures bold. Rate the ship and weight it in, let the fun poll now begin!

For me the top three are: Aayla (the best 2025 minifig by a country mile) Clone Cadet ISB Tactical Agent I don't own any of them though. The Clone Cadet has a very useful torso and legs for kitbashing. I imagine some kind of corporate security trooper (with different arms and heads and a helmet). Since I bought only the microfighter, Plo Koon is the only 2025 minifig I own. Depressing actually

That is such a cool moc! I remember playing the game like 25 years ago. Although I liked Fallout 2 more because there was no time limit in the game (if I remember correctly there was a time limit in the first Fallout).

Nah, not to annoy them, but to drain their pockets

The sails, all the bricks, the card box and instructions - there are no parts from Asia?

+1 Actually I am thinking exactly this all the time!! People complain online and then go on to buy sets on day one because they can not wait some months. Of course this way Lego does not get the message and nothing will ever change for the better.

This is so funny Funny and tragic. The higher-ups in those mega companies really have detached themselves from reality. At least from the reality the rest of the population is living in. Louvre should take some notes. People will from now on come to visit and see 'Leonardo's painting' or spend their holidays in New York City too see some 'high building' LMAO As for the set, it's an easy pass. Bring on 2026!

Very interesting! Thanks for sharing

That's really the worst possible treatment these themes could get Maybe a book nook or some brickheadz? Oh dear

That's a great little ship! I really like the first picture, even if the shallow depth of field makes it hard to make out some of the details.... A dashing small boat in dark waters in front of a mysterious jungle island

Thanks for the review! Very interesting, great set That 1x1 plate with studs on both sides (or whatever it is called) is such a great part. And there are so many gold & silver ink parts!
