Black Falcon

I would be surprised if we don´t see it in any sets this year - would actually guess we will see it as soon as in the January wave - just don´t think they made that mould especially for Marvel really.

Since there is quite some time between the Creator and the D&D Set, that seems more than unikely. First of all with all the Ninjago Dragons around they have plenty of red ones too and I don´t think they would really mind if they had a similar colour, since aside from that they are still very different. And if they would actually be bothered about it they would have rather made the Creator one in a different colour and not changed the one from the D&D Set.

Yeah, would have hoped for a recolour if they have no other set that has them in production, At least a white one without black face would have been doable, then they wouldn´t have needed an other lamb too. They mentioned why they decided on changing the dragon in one of the interviews though, and said something like that it fitted better lore-wise than the green one.

Hmm, would have to see it next to the adult one. Kinda looks a bit to much like a 4+ creature. But probably it just looks bigger on the picture than it actually is.

Looks great, I especially like the stern of the ship, which makes the ship look quite a bit different from the other spaceships they did. Wondering what we have to discover inside the ship, when more pictures show up.

Well it would depend on how it turns out ultimately. It isn´t really something on my wishlist and not a set I would be looking for, but nothing I would say I would never buy either - because it can just turn out to look cool in the end. Have to say though, small chance I would buy one, and very small one to buy two signs. Jurassic Park has the way better chances there.

Well noone said they couldn´t do it. They are actually still doing it for Jurassic World, but probably if they did Smaug today it would also be Brickbuilt. Personally I wouldn´t mind a moulded Balrog. Just don´t think it is that likely - but surely not impossible either.

I don´t think the Galaxy Explorer and Blacktron Cruiser really got the same Style though. While the Galaxy Explorer was modernized the Blacktron Cruiser tried to stay more to the old style with smaller updates - and changes because of unavaiable parts. That beeing said, I think (and hope) that the Blacktron Renegade will get the same threatment as the Galaxy Explorer got.

Actually it is kind of funny that the Fan Designer, that worked on the Dungeons and Dragons Set is working there. So far we have no info about any Sets, aside that there is something coming. Wondering, since the game will be released this month, that there is no more info yet towards the set(s), since you would think it would release early next year then

Obviously he meant 23.

One has nothing to do with the other - first of all it seems unlikely that the same parts would be printed and secondly, that would only make sense if they would be actually be in production at the same time, as the part would still have needed an own storage back when the GWP was in production.

Yeah, and hopefully they also make a puppy for it. The one from the D&D CMF, which some people said would be a wolf just isn´t working for me.

I´d actually be surprised if they would make one updated version and use the GWP version alongside. I would guess either they make two new versions, or it will actually just be one version, and the difference between pilots and crew will only be shown by helmet for instance, or they will just look the same and are only described as such, because two are sitting in the cockpit and the others not... Well, shouldn´t be that long till we see pictures anyways.

I would almost bet that brachiosaur will be the next - if they will continue after that we will have to see. I do have to say though, that I am kinda disappointed by the Pterosaur Costume. I am just not completely sold on the head, which looks just kinda strange - I guess the main reason is, because the beak is just so short. I mean, I get they probably did it so you can see the face better, but I think a longer beak would just work so much better. Will still get it though. My favourite of the series is of course the Wolpfack Bandit, with Wolf. Pirate and Steampunk guy look also great and the Hamster-Costume is actually really cute. Not sure if I will get any of the rest, probably the Boogeyman and the Octan guy.

I am just thinking putting someone in one corner just because of his sweater is pigeonholing. That beeing said, the Designers might have choosen the colours with the intend that people can feel represented but for sure not to tell you, Hey this person is wearing this colours so he must be this or that. ;)

Or just a normal person. IMO people just read to much into some colours. Well, they have been 50:50 for quite a while. And unless the Boogieman is female, I just don´t see it.

Is it? I mean we don´t see the Boogeyman really, so 7:5 is possible, but for me it looks like a normal splitted Series. The arms look like two different moulds to me. I mean they look rather thick and look more like they are attached to the back of the arm rather than the middle.

There was nowhere stated that they would be one to one copies as far as I remember. And while it seems possible they would bring parts back in production for it, especially if they would be preordered and they would just have to set produce the number of parts needed, so they wouldn´t take up storage capacity. I doubt that they would bring back retired moulds however, and the sets would have probably closes copies, but not 1:1 copies of the sets.

Yeah, you´re right, just one more reason for people to buy it. I really wish they would let people preorder those figures, that would also prevent the cherry picking in the stores. Well somewhat at least.

That is something that surprised me to. That the first ones are on the shelves in mid December is quite common but having them out now already. I don´t actually think that the Pirate will have that high demand - I mean it will probably be the second most demanded figure, but I don´t think it will be anyway near the Wolfpack Bandit or the Paladin. Wow, that looks really great, nice idea.

Wow, the Wolf looks really great, they did a good Job on that one. Wouldn´t be surprised if it gets worse than with the Paladin with this Figure.

They are still in production, because they are included in Sets as far as I know. 4 of the 5 Parts are said to retire this year and the 5th is the 1x1 Round brick - where I wonder if they just forgot it in the list, since the only Set it should still be included is the Cantina, which also retires this year. But might be I missed anything.

One of the questions actually was how much you were willing to pay for it. Plus they also had other ideas they wanted to implement, it wasn´t just about the abo for old sets, though of course that is what most people kept of the survey ;). That beeing said, I liked some ideas, but of course not the idea of a monthly subscription. And without that I guess it just isn´t worth it financially for them.

There are some that came back, but you can´t really say there is a rule behind it. As far as I remember the World Wonders were already restocked in the past, same as the ride Sets came back, after some of them were sold out for quite some time - however, I am sure there will be a point where they will get retired, though it is hard to say when.

Noone said the GWP would come alongside the Blacktron Set - I mean the Blacktron cruiser GWP was months after the Galaxy Explorer. And I don´t see a reason why they couldn´t use trans bright green in the first place. Eitherway as said above, two Space Sets in one year would surprise me, so I would tend towards a GWP. Btw, the January GWP should be the Year of the Snake one, I think Modular GWPs came usually in February. Though they might make it exclusive for its release now, then it would actually release alongside the Modular.
