Thoughts on the Netflix acquisition? And how will this impact Lego? Here’s the outcomes I can think of: Positive scenario: if Lanterns, Booster Gold and Jimmy Olsen go straight to Netflix they may become more popular and recognised than they would have been on HBO. This could lead to sets based specifically off those shows like we saw with One Piece and Stranger Things. Negative Scenario 1: Netflix changes direction at DC again and focuses exclusively on Man. Negative Scenario 2: this fails and DC will completely collapse Negative Scenario 3 (the Syndercult outcome): Netflix scraps DCU and continues Snyderverse. Meaning no DC sets based off R rated, character assassinating movies. (This seems the most unlikely if you’re a sane person who understands box office and the need for toy sales) Did I miss any? Also who is Netflix going to mandate that Milly Bobby Brown be cast as in the DCU?

Day #225 of the Tie Avenger crusade. That’s as many as 5 Liz Truss’ so I guess that doesn’t say much. I still think a New Republic Y-Wing has a good chance at being the $75 M&G set in May.

I wouldn’t be surprised if we got a Buildable Mandalorian instead of an AT AT in the M&G wave Please Lego. I beg you. Just keep making these £60 play-sets. They are the only thing you’ve been doing right recently. And please use it to release a Tie Avenger (Day #224). Well that’s disheartening.

This honestly depresses me. The AT ST and A-Wing hurt the most. I wish that the AT ST didn’t have smart minifigs because all they’re going to do is corrupt the beautiful scout trooper. I might have even bought a couple if there were no smart minifigs. Just a AT ST driver, scout trooper, stormtrooper and rebel commando or Ewok or Chewie would have been perfect. But no, Empire fans can’t have nice things these days. The Luke’s Landspeeder is just funny. I am legitimately considering migrating to Ninjago at this point. Especially now that Legacy’s back. Agreed. Salvation lies in Tie Avenger. I hate to be melodramatic, but I think LSW really is heading into a dark age. I know I’ve criticised clone bros for calling 2015-19 a dark age (despite there being better era balancing than now). But this is different, this is actually bad. Conventional Lego sets are being challenged by smart bricks and 18+. Price gouging is rampant. And play-set slots are dominated by a single piece of content. None of this was arguably as much of a problem back then. LSW is losing the very soul that made it so special compared to other toy brands and Lego themes. It just makes me sad ngl.

True. But remember that all the March sets are supposed to be smart brick compatible according to bricktap. That may mean that they’re all designed to accommodate smart bricks, but don’t all have smart bricks. So while a Tie Advanced may not have a Smart Brick, it may be built to accommodate one. The entire march wave is supposed to be a smart-bricks wave. So if the Tie Advanced isn’t at least smart brick compatible, it may not exist. Tie Advanced from the 2022 Trench Run Diorama

Good luck with that. All my rhydo is going towards the Tie Avenger (Day #223) So as for the March of the Fart brick : Disgusting X-Wing Tie Advanced Emperor’s Throne Room Mos Eisley Cantina Dagobah Training ? ? ? From the leaked list of smart brick minifigs, we can surmise that Mos Eisley and Dagobah are happening in some capacity. That leaves 3 unknown set numbers. Any predictions? Smart brick republic gunship with Wolfpack?

That’s for the new shopping street Modular. Unfortunately

But Palpatine was I mean. 501st Battlepack has already eclipsed Luke’s Landspeeder thrice in the past 5 years.

So. Are the ninja mutating into dragons? They now have tails. Which is something dragon form didn’t have in Crystallised.

I’m glad someone’s happy with the wave. Day #222 of the Tie Avenger campaign.

It’s December 1st. Time to use that Christmas magic to our advantage. (Day #221) Midis look good. But I agree with @Darth_Bane13. I would just prefer more normal play-sets. Bring on the March/ May/ June news!! As those are what are logically next. Ita, amice mi. Optime. Linguas mortuas quoque uti debemus ut certi simus.

Huh. I kinda forgot that was coming. It looks decent. Definitely not spherically accurate. But an alright attempt Lego-wise.

Oh whoops. I thought I might try something different. Oh well.

Hello Lego. Where is the Tie Avenger? Day 220 of asking for a Tie Avenger.

On the Andor season 2 rewatch Day #219. Yes. The theme will eventually become oversaturated with clones. And what will happen then?

You know what Black Friday would be perfect for? A Tie Avenger!!! But alas, maybe next year. (Day #218)

We’re going back in time to the first Lego 2025 set selection meeting to put the Tie Avenger on the menu. That’s right. We’re going back in time to the first 2025 Lego set selection meeting to put the Tie Avenger on the menu. (Day #217, and happy Thanksgiving to American members of the forum)

Nice. I also think/ hope a Doctor Doom mech is on the cards.

Just a little more time is all we're asking for Just a little more time could open closing doors Just a little uncertainty Can bring you down And nobody wants to know you now And nobody wants to show you how So if you're lost and on your own You can never surrender (the Tie Avenger) And if your path won't lead you home You can never surrender (the Tie Avenger) And when the night is cold and dark You can see, you can see light 'Cause no one can take away your right To fight and to never surrender (the Tie Avenger) With a little perseverance, you can get things done Without the blind adherence that has conquered some And nobody wants to know you now And nobody wants to show you how So if you're lost and on your own You can never surrender (the Tie Avenger) And if your path won't lead you home You can never surrender (the Tie Avenger) And when the night is cold and dark You can see, you can see light 'Cause no one can take away your right To fight and to never surrender (the Tie Avenger) To never surrender (the Tie Avenger) And when the night is cold and dark You can see, you can see light And no one can take away your right To fight and to never surrender (the Tie Avenger) To never surrender (the Tie Avenger) Oh, time is all we're asking for To never surrender (the Tie Avenger) Oh, you can never surrender (the Tie Avenger) Time is all you're asking for Stand your ground, never surrender (the Tie Avenger) Oh, oh, oh, oh, I said You never surrender, (the Tie Avenger) oh Day #216 of vowing to never surrender the Tie Avenger campaign Are you sure? Completely agreed. Those speeders and the probe droid should be included in upcoming imperial battlepacks. Oh. I’m going to needing a NR battlepack, a ISD Chimera bridge diorama and a Tie Avenger. Don’t forget the man children who think the entire theme should revolve around one cartoon while they ignore 80% of the episodes. I agree. These and an Attack Shuttle are the only clone sets I’d be ok with in the next 2-3 years. Dear Lego: Oh yeah. I’d like that, though I’d prefer we get 2-3 Battlepacks a year. Maybe 2 normal and 1 super versus? I also consider the 2016 or 2017 Imperial and rebel BPs to be great candidates for this sub theme. And honestly the 2015 Resistance and First Order BP as well, maybe even expanding the FO turret build to be a small outpost that the Resistance are assaulting. The 2012 ARC Trooper and Geonosian BPs I don’t see happening unless they change half the builds. Because, let’s face it, opposing artillery likely doesn’t have the same appeal as speeders or a moving strike vehicle vs said artillery.

Day #215 of the Tie Avenger initiative. (Wasn’t it great when Erik Selvig, Talos, Ulysses Klaue, The Thing, Redneck #2 and Zuri formed their own Avengers branch?) 2026 News! I need you 2026 news!

Yes. For the most part, even if they’re downscaled, Lego does a pretty solid job on Tie Fighters. It’s also about getting Lego to give Andor the recognition it deserves. Besides, I’ve spent so much time on the campaign at this point, it’d be foolish to stop now. (Day #214 of asking Lego to make a Tie Avenger) True. But the U-Wing is still a good set. Easily a top 3 of the year. Don’t you bring that evil on us.

“the best path didn’t have to be quick as long as it was correct.” - Thrawn And that’s the mentality I’m taking into the 213th day of the Tie Avenger campaign.

I’ve already bought 3. It’s just a great set. And the value is actually decent.

The dark side of the force is a pathway to many things that some consider to be… completely natural in this case. Also. There’s an interesting dichotomy of Luthen sacrificing everything for a sunrise that he’d never see, only for a child of the rebellion he created to sacrifice the said sunrise in order to gain everything. There’s also a very large contrast in the quality of projects. Day #212. Sorry Cody, we don’t want to see you for a while.
