    Nothing is certain until there is an offical response. While it seems very likely that some inactive accounts got taken over, I have doubts about that post asking 50k from Lego beeing from that hackers. Obviously they trying to make money from selling not existing sets and minifigs, so actually threating to delete inventorys and such would hurt their own scam. Looks more like someone is trying to scam some money for himself out of the situation, especially since it would be very unlikely Lego would be paying this.

    It is for me too - and don´t get me wrong, I also like him - but he certainly is no Majisto for me.

    Depending on what it would have looked like I wouldn´t have anything against it. However, looking on the past Pirate GWP, there were a lot complains about that one, because people would have rather wished for a remake like the Blacktron cruiser or the Forestmen Hideout.
  4. Black Falcon
    Well I would say it is not a coincidence that he looks like him, but for me that isn´t Majisto. It is clearly based on him, though. Anyways I don´t like the stars he is wearing on his head.

    I prefer the GWP over that one. It looks nothing like the original and is just to far away from it. It also shares some of the main things people mentioned to dislike on the gwp. And well, also I think it is to big. Without BURPs that gwp wouldn´t actually exist. You would have to use several other bricks instead and then would be missing the space to do much inside. Taking the BURPs for this GWP was the right choice IMO. I don´t think, there will be windows, but would actually guess that the gap is the window.

    The missing shield in the Majisto actually makes me think we might not get any new shield at all and just the ones from the Lion Knights Castle. Or maybe worn broken one that the Smith can repair? That would actually be pretty cool IMO That BAM Wizard is even less Majisto than the plain one is.
  7. Black Falcon
    Aside from the BURPs there are also a lot little pieces and given that it is very likely that you can open it, the use or BURPs has the advantage that there will be enough space for interior.

    If they were to use that torso in the Village, they would also have shields, so we can be pretty sure it won´t show up there. However, since they didn´t make the shields, I am kinda wondering if we are even getting any new shields in that set. Seems likely to me they just use the existing ones.
  9. Black Falcon
    Exactly. And also, you actually can see on the pics that they are no stickers.

    I do agree that the dragon knights torso isn´t the best castle torso that exist, but for me that one actually looks updated. However I will need better pictures to really judge if the reinterpretation is good or not. But it is clearly better than the original one for me. Well the set as whole doesn´t look that bad to me, although I kinda would have wished they would have stayed less true to the original workshop. I didn´t expect a new helmet or a plume either. But I was hoping for a shield and a print for Majisto. I mean a bag for his incredients and a belt or better a cord would have made that minifigure so much better. they could even just let the torso unprinted and just print the skirt. Anyways, I wouldn´t count on the torso to show up on Pick a brick. It is not impossible since the blacktron torso did, but that doesn´t mean we will see this one too. Just because you dislike the Eldorado Fortress doesn´t mean others have to do the same - would be boring if everyone had the same taste. And noone here complained about building techniques but mainly about the minifigures and some of the overall look of the set. Two minifigures and a horse don´t seem that unrealistic to me actually. And it isn´t that unlikely that we will see a gwp having that this year.

    Well if you look at Dragon Knights and Black Knights, their big shields are actually the same - with one having a blue and the other having a green dragon - which would speak for them beeing the same faction (though in different times) - same as Dark Forest actually is Forestmen.
  12. Black Falcon
    Exactly this. I would make a bet that Basil is a male minfigure actually.
  13. Black Falcon
    Hmm, some earlier news said it had prints on the skirt. If this is true, then it would be really bad. Well in the end just safes me money. Might also depend on the build but I doubt I will go for a second one. Also what happened to the second knight?...
  14. Black Falcon
    Yeah I saw that one. But still do they just remove them all even if they still have them on stock?
  15. Black Falcon
    Well the good news is, only two weeks and then we should see it for sure. I can wait.
  16. Black Falcon
    Well if MTS comes out in April, there will be a time where it is not avaiable, but it should come back - and a time where it isn´t produced since there is no set for it, and they won´t produce it just for Pick a Brick. (I have no idea how long in advance to release they actually produce sets though) Well same here, not planning to buy anything before that date. The question is, do parts really vanish at that date, or do they just stop producing them - it seems unlikely to me that they don´t sell off what they have in stock first - but even then parts won´t last long from that date.

    The other one was sand blue (and there also is a olive green one). In general I like the colouring of the new dinos, sometimes they have quite weird colouring. Both sets look great to me, but I will likely only get the baby dinos. The display however bugs me because of the sticker. I mean Star Wars gets printed badges now, but Jurassic Parc and Indiane Jones only get prints (that also bugged me with T-Rex Escape and the Temple. I mean they are displays. They should have prints. If you look at the name, I am pretty sure that is the plan.
  18. Black Falcon
    That actually doesn´t seem that unlikely to me since Pandas are part of the Chinese Culture (and China thinks of all Pandas as their national property). They could aswell have the mould for the adult one in the budget of the Set and get help with the baby panda from CMF (obviously in that case it wouldn´t be the 2024 Lunar New Year Set)
  19. Black Falcon
    I´m pretty sure the legs will. The torso, while not too modern still doesn´t look medival to me. I mean you could use it but I don´t particulary like that one that much. And the legs could basically be used by more than one villager having different torso. While the other way around I don´t think it would work.
  20. Black Falcon
    Well bad news. I don´t plan to actually buy anything before the Majisto GWP, so when they just get removed before that date, well. Then again could be that is just when they will stop producing them but even if that is the case I doubt that especially the animals will be avaiable much longer.
  21. Black Falcon
    No but I would expect something similar to LEGO 3300014 Christmas Set with a more detailed carriage. Likely also less minifigures, 2 or 3 seems realistic to me.
  22. Black Falcon
    I wouldn´t say that a Kangaroo wouldn´t fit inte a CMF. Sure a adult red kangaroo wouldn´t but there are kangaroos that don´t reach that size. and could actually fit in a CMF series.
  23. Black Falcon
    Well that would explain that at least lol. Another member was from the US though ;).
  24. Black Falcon
    Stall actually is the german word for stable, So it wouldn´t have surprised me when german member would have interpeted it as that. But well you can see for many members where they are coming from and the ones were from other countrys -I have to say I was a bit confused lol.
  25. Black Falcon
    Only the picture IMO. But should be two minifigures.
