  1. No idea about the tube, but the Tower is made out of these: Support 1 x 6 x 5 Girder Rectangular : Part 64448 | BrickLink
  2. Those persons probably never had a duplo animal then, because duplo animals are always very rounded, while the Fluffy mould is way more blocky, like all bigger Lego animals - the only thing really similar to duplo would be the size. I couldn´t say the legs are black in the movie honestly, so I don´t really mind that a bit. To me it looks great as it is.
  3. They migh want to see how the Marvel and Star Wars ones are doing before expanding this to different themes. If it isn´t doing well for Star Wars with a huge Adult Fan base, then they won´t make one for Harry Potter given it has less Adult collectors. If it is doing well however, I could see them doing it, but probably not next year and if then surely in the summer wave and not the winter one.
  4. Eitherway I would think the Pigeon will stay around thanks to City for a long time, so I wouldn´t be to afraid to get them fast.
  5. One of the main reasons probably is that as an exclusive Set it is harder to get higher discounts on it and du to this parting out might just not be worth it because most of the parts included are easier to obtain from other sources. However, they should show up on Pick a Brick in the next couple months, so I would just wait for them to show up there.
  6. Wouldn´t be surprised if sooner or later it would show up in BAM
  7. For the obvious reason, they could have done a better tree for sure, prove for that is out there, but the question would be, if it would be worth the set beeing more expensive for it.
  8. I don´t think it needs to be completely faithful to the original. he Galaxy Explorer wasn´t either and yet it was a great model. In the end wether you buy it or not should depend on whether you like it for what it is and not how faithful it is towards something else.
  9. Yeah, i was posted here on Eurobricks. And actually it contradicts the official lore he always is so exited about for some factions at least... Personally, I never thought about where they could be coming from in real life, because they all live in a fantasy Lego world, though of course there general world is similar to the medieval world with some fantasy elements.
  10. The Lions Knights Castle seemed to do pretty well though, so I wouldn´t say it is that unlikely to get a remake of the Black Knights Castle. Reposting would not be better than posting it themselves (which they do anyways, since it is their own secondary channel). Hence it is also forbidden to link to leaks here. Yes, you are right. I didn´t remember that one, just was quite sure there hasn´t been such a crown in castle before. Actually the only similar crown that came to my mind was the one Prince John from the Disney CMF was wearing, but the head itself was quite different there ;). It is a brickbuilt crest, that´s all. No idea why they used the red flag for the king, but if there would be another faction, we would see it on the main build too. Maybe it has something to do with the joust alternate build and they use the civilian as another type of knight there or whatever.
  11. I don´t see any strategy at all. First he cries about discontinuing of unlicensed themes and how bad everything is, then he wants to discontinue even more, including one that he cried about one day ago. Like every second post of him in this thread is about how great, creative and everything Dreamzzz is, now he is claiming that Ninjago was the last theme Lego put any effort in. Which just proofes he doesn´t even watch the videos he is posting here constantly.
  12. I am actually surprised that those watermarked pictures show up that often now on reddit, since before it was said they wouldn´t post those since they would get a strike for it. Anyways, so far it looks good, especially like the new heair/crown mould, and also that there are 3 shields included for the horse Knights. Not really sure about the civilian figure, will judge that one when we get clear pictures from it but on first sight the other figures look great.
  13. Would kinda have been a shame if hey make that new mould and then just use it for a single set. Yeah, but would bet it will be quite expensive on PAB. Well hopefully they use it again for a castle gwp or something like that.
  14. Well no idea about the rest but I´ve read it and can jus say it was very well written ;). Well, Ninjago has the same boring Ninjas for a long time now - granted with two new ones joined later on. And he same you are doing with the minifig above, could be just aswell be done with a licensed minifigure.
  15. Not that I would be against those, but I would prefer warriors or common people of that time over deities.
  16. As said before, I wouldn´t put to much into that sentence, since it is only marketing speach and the person that made that very likely hasn´t any idea whether there will be more sets or not anyways ;)
  17. Yeah, but sadly those will be gone by end of the year too, together with all the civilian prints. Just reminds me that I still have to get some of those, this year won´t be exactly a cheap one either.
  18. Not anymore. You can buy the bardings, which would look strange when another knight uses the crest of another faction. But the actual saddle retired end of last year.
  19. The horses beeing brickbuilt was discussed here before and was expected since it is the creator theme - for the bright yellow bricks, I would expect the castle walls to be grey and just some buildings on top of it to be actually yellow similar to the last creator castle.
  20. With that we are at 6 minifigs now, which is a great surprise. I hope for a new Torso for the civilian, since the others are retiring end of the year anyways.
  21. The captain seems to be from the Minifigure series, though you have an other face for him: Sea Captain, Series 10 (Minifigure Only without Stand and Accessories) : Minifigure col154 | BrickLink The surfer guy:Surfer Rescue : Set 60011-1 | BrickLink The two Power Miners can be from different Sets, based on which headgear belongs to them: BrickLink Reference Catalog - Minifigures - Category Power Miners The Racer guy with the classic space logo seems to be made of different parts too, interestingly the minifig exists with the same face print but sunglasses - but also tan legs instead of white ones: BrickLink Reference Catalog - Minifigures which Contain Part 973pb0298c01 Another CMF figure: Abraham Lincoln, The LEGO Movie (Minifigure Only without Stand and Accessories) : Minifigure tlm005 | BrickLink And another with swapped face: Graduate, Series 5 (Complete Set with Stand and Accessories) : Set col05-1 | BrickLink

  23. In other countrys Lego isn´t managing their own shops but has them licensed to others and as far as I understand it they buy those sets from Lego and then just sell them on. Basically like a normal retailer, just that they also get the exclusive stuff and gwps.
  24. Probably the same as just putting videos everywhere without a single word. He should make an own youtube channel or something, since a forum is for discussions which don´t happen if you just put a video - or make claims saying everyone with an other opinion is wrong anyways. Not to mention, that those videos don´t even support his claims.
  25. Like I said, it is a rare thing usually included in the more expensive books. Also depends on what we see as a exclusive minifigure ofc, for me it would have to include at least one exclusive part - if we count characters that are just using one different part then we would end up with way more exclusive fics (most of them with plain instead of printed legs) Yeah, I mean that they work together is pretty clear. I meant more, if they have a meeting and then say, hey we would love to make a book including Luna and a buildable thestral, and Lego employees say, oh cool give us a week to make some quick models or something like that. As for Luna, the torso, legs and face print is used in the great hall, so the only thing that isn´t in production anyways is the hair. And I would guess that they make the whole batch at once and send it to the book comany so it wouldn´t be any different than making a gwp.
