  1. I dunno, I think this might be a speculative test to see how popular they are - and could spawn a whole sub theme of sets featuring colourful ponies/unicorns/pegauses as the ‘figures’
  2. Pretty sure the only animals in Creator sets before are cats and dogs Maybe a horse? @Roebuck will know
  3. Brick built, no? Though there’s a new mould for Fluffy heads and the body which might be repurposed somehow. It’s a Creator set, I don’t know if that’s always 3-in-1. But we get three pony/foals!
  4. Seems to be the existing foal in both pink 🩷 & yellow 💛 (both with Cupid wings attached to make them ‘pegasuses’), and a new mould for the unicorn in white 🤍 with purple mane and tail 🦄 (nice nod to the CMF unicorn costume). I have a sneaking suspicion that these are going to be insanely popular. Very much leaning into the My Little Pony vibe with these. I also find myself slightly sad that there’s not a blue pony/foal included.
  5. Unicorn, Pegasus and Pegacorn options. Amazing.
  6. I also saw an owl being mentioned - but who knows if that’s existing, new, brick -built, fantastical, transparent, zombie … It’s high time we had more wild dog species, to offset the abundance of big cats. Both the wolf and (red) fox seem like very sensible additions to me, since they both have such wide distribution across the planet. Fox could also show up as a recolour in future CMFs of course. My paws are still crossed that the unseen Arctic set features a wolf recolour, a narwhal, and a couple of puffins for good measure 😜
  7. I legit love it when @Lion King’s software gives us autocorrect howlers. I often look at the existing core dinos - T rex, raptor, and triceratops and think just how well designed they were. That they have survived to be still being used so many years and iterations later, and the poseability of the T rex & raptor in particular are pretty awesome. Lest we forget, they were first used in an in-house theme and then transferred seamlessly into Jurassic Park/ World standards.
  8. Yep, there are new dinosaurs you martini - the velociraptor is an updated smaller option, plus new baby aquilops, Spinosaurus and Titanosaurus. The pink foal is the existing foal mould, but the leaked image obscures the face, so it’s not clear what that looks like. It’s also been paired with the wings from the CMF cupid, to make it a pink Pegasus! City has the new pigeons, so far in both the tower and the train station sets (maybe others?) it’s not yet clear if they’re all identical or have any variations. I think at this stage we can bank the new fox mould, even though it took us a while to convince ourselves. They’re in white in the Arctic train set, so I guess that leaves us with two big questions - when and where might we get a ‘red fox’ recolour? And what, of any, animals are there in the other Arctic set. Not sure if any other City sets we haven’t yet seen will have surprises for us… I guess Dreamzzz might also have something as they threw in the red panda last year, and introduced the raven. There is a very bad pic of a leaked trans pink Dreamzzz animal that may be an axolotl, or something more fantastical.
  9. I think you’re reaching a bit if you think most people make that connection, ‘hot cross buns’ these days are also bastardised into all sorts of flavour combos, so I think it’s as commercialised and sold-out as baked goods can be.
  10. You can tell the animal moulds with the least tolerance - they have angry eyebrows 😂
  11. The reality however is that almost every Arctic set we have ever gotten has had some animals in it - usually to site it in the Arctic! So it would be odd for it not to have anything. To me the description of the ‘wolf den’ for the other set is really so like what we get in the train set that it seems to be a mix up. Also we don’t know how that person got their info - they may have seen sets beside each other built up and not known which ‘scenery’’ went with which …
  12. I mean, I think wolves in one and foxes in the other *seems* unlikely to me, since they are similar to the casual observer. I guess it could be a wolf in the other one, but now I’d assume a recolour in white would be unlikely. Who knows? We definitely need more accurate reports on animal moulds from people who give us the leaks tho … #priorities
  13. Yep, and the rule is *always* New Animal Mould > New Animal Colour/Print
  14. At this point my money is on the foxes causing the rock fall. Why else are they up high like that!? And yes, the other set including wolves seems unlikely now.
  15. Yeah I’m pretty sure the wee cave in this one is the ‘wolf den’. I’m confused why the foxes seem to have a poster or a sign on the wall though
  16. Yeah my point was that you would see the stud on the back of the wolf mould from that angle (the head is also all wrong, so it’s a moot point). As to whether the fox has a stud - no idea. The closest critters we have would be dogs, otters, skunk & red panda. Some of them have a stud on the back, some don’t 🤷🏽‍♂️
  17. Love the ‘observation car’ with the wraparound windows - perfect for watching the Aurora Legoalis!
  18. What? No hot cross bun suit?!
  19. Agree. Head is too erect, and there’s no visible stud on the back which you would see if it were the existing mould on the right hand animal at least. 🦊🦊 I’m now crossing everything for a variant ‘red’ fox to show up in the background of a new City set we haven’t yet seen
  20. Actually, I take that back, I think they are both the same and they are both foxes. There’s no way those are the existing wolf mould unless someone is trolling us with manipulated box art. If true that means 2025 has given us wolves, pigeons and foxes - three of the most wanted & most obviously missing critters. 🥳🥳🥳
  21. Yeah same, I’d say foxes, but that seems a bit odd. There’s also a chance it’s a wolf recolour with a new wolf cub (on the left)
  22. Yep, it’s hard to predict how ‘evergreen’ new animal moulds will be, but there’s a subset which definitely are. I’m assuming the pigeon joins the squirrel, bunny, owl etc. in being long-lived. I do hope they’re either available easily through BAM or well priced on PAB, so I’d also welcome any army-building option such as inclusion in a CMF.
  23. I mean, yes please, but I assume they will take the more ‘open to interpretation’ route, so they have to deal with less seething outrage from the easily-outraged-by-people-existing-authentically crew.
