Holy shit, this is phenomenal! Probably the best waterfall I have ever seen!

Your builds never seize to amaze me! 😍🤩

I never liked the 3 in 1 Viking ship, tje colours, the helmets, all very fantasy like with hardly any historical accuracy.. it may be the case that this also plays into it being not that successful..

Nostalgia, printed sails (essentially new parts), maybe more minifigs.. but again, mainly nostalgia.

I hope so too!

Is that so? Do you know the sales figures? And how could a controversy harm the classic themes? If anything, TLG may consider bringing some medium priced sets again. However, I personally think that the large expensive sets do indeed sell well enough, regardless of a few people complaining.

Very nice!

Thank you! :)

I agree, combining two sets without changing much seems a bit pointless to me..

Would certainly look great as well! :)

No the BB set is not made for adults compared to their medieval (BB special) buildings like castle Blaustein, it‘s very obvious when you look at the grade of detail and piece count. I personally prefer all those things you don‘t like and do not like the things you would prefer like printed wall panels haha. Guess it‘s impossible to please everyone. I believe the majority prefers newer building techniques over pure nostalgia though.

I agree with the general sentiment of your comment, I also think the BB fort is lacking.. something (cannot really say what). However I don‘t see how the building techniques of Eldorado are more advanced, really. Both of them are mainly traditional brick on brick builds or what are the above average, more advanced techniques in Eldorado in your opinion? A fact is that BB offers much more furniture and accessories in their sets, an abundance of crates, bottles, barrels, weapons etc. but like I said, something is missing with regard to that fort. But then again, it‘s made mainly for kids, nor for AFOLs.

It is not clear yet whether the figs will in fact not appear on PaB. I am almost certain that the torsos will appear on there, maybe not the admiral hat.

I don‘t know how this can be worse than not getting a set at all. First, you get 6 imperials, second, there will be more on Bricklink as well. So if you are army building and you don‘t aim for 100 soliders, you should be alright.

Honestly, I love goats for historical MOCs but I would never ever pay the aftermarket prices for TLG goats.. that‘s just crazy.
