You don't think so because he is a Nazi? The only reason I wouldn't agree with that is because he was featured in the Lego Indiana Jones game, so to me I can't see why they would do that but not bring him out as a minifigure. Initially I thought that about the Grail Knight as well, but because he featured in the game I just assumed Lego would be fine with releasing him as a minifigure to. I also think doubling up TLC temple as an Indi set and a collectors set would sell really well. It is after all a wonder of the world (Petra) and Lego does like to give us those as sets. So far we have the Taj & Colosseum. On that note I would be curious to see if Lego are developing a new Indi game? Yeah, we only got 3 and they were all relatively small scale as well. Every other movie got a fairy larger scale set expect TLC (which is my favourite Indi movie). I didn't think about the circus train but that would actually make a really good set, the only reason I can see Lego not doing that though is because currently Harry Potter has a D2C train on the shelves and the new Ideas Orient Express is coming out in the next year or so.

Is it true that Rivendell is releasing on 1st March? I had read this on Insta leaks earlier and was not expecting it so soon.

Do you think they would do the Grail Knight? For some strange reason he is the character I want most from Indiana Jones. Part of me thinks that's why we won't get KOTCS sets because the opposition/enemy in the movie are Russian, maybe Lego want to stay clear of anything that could be deemed as inappropriate or 'escalating' tension (can't think of the word I actually mean) given the current climate and situation with Ukraine. A TV series in England called McMafia was cancelled due to the same thing, it was on its second season as well. I know it may sound daft but with Russia been in the media on a daily basis and shown to be the evil/enemy and then children's toys having the Russians as the enemy can actually create a kind of lasting impression on children and in some ways people can say it is a form of propaganda. Just so everyone's clear this is not my opinion and I am just stating a fact from a company's standpoint that's all.

I mean it'd be a dream come true if they did it for an ISD or Republic Ventor but I can imagine the cost would be astronomical to be honest. See for me the Falcon's interior was a huge letdown, I really felt that it could have had a full scale interior, but maybe Lego was testing the market for that kind of thing then.

I feel like TLC never got a lot of love for first time round so it would be good to see sets on that this time.

Really impressed with the trailer. I am actually looking forward to seeing this movie and thats something I never thought I'd say about Ant-Man. I think Kang is going to make an awesome villain for the next few years for Marvel and I can't wait to get him in minifgure form.

It seems everything is up in the air with the movie at the moment, one minute I'm reading Its Margot Robbie, then Johnny Depp is back and now the latest is he is getting replaced by someone from Stranger Things. I think the reason he is expecting a Black Pearl is because of the 100 year Disney anniversary. A little off topic but if Johnny Depp doesn't return I don't want POTC 6.

Exactly what I'm thinking. It's Brough LOTR right back into the public eye again. Even if it's adults watching this and their kids are watching with them they will soon watch LOTR as well, similar to SW because no matter what trilogy of SW you are Brough up with once you know about it you will watch the other six movies.

When do you think this would be then? I suppose that's true but they are both so different with such different crews I wouldn't rule it out. I really thought the Flying Dutchman would sell better than the Black Pearl to be completely honest. Or maybe that's wishful thinking on my part.

Does an Do you think Pirates of the Caribbean will return? For me Lego not making a D2C Black Pearl and more importantly Imo a Flying Dutchman was a huge mistake. Surely Lego would know that a Flying Dutchman would be popular enough as it was requested so much and received 10,000 votes on LEGO Ideas (Cuusoo at the time).

If they do bring one out I'm sure it would be the movie version as it is just too iconic to not do that, even if it appears different in the ROP. I would just hope it wouldn't be microscale, just as I hope Rivendell isn't. @Alegrispa I think the only difference between LOTR/Avatar compared to Indie is that we are getting continued stories from those so popularity will likely increase over the coming years. It's most likely that ROP won't be wrapped up until 2030 and Avatar is 2028 I believe, prefect time for merch to be continually pumped out. It just seems too much of a coincidence that Lego would get the licence back for 2 brickheadz and a D2C. I am pretty sure they only started doing Harry Potter sets again was because of Fantastic Beasts.

I just posted in the Lego City 2023 thread about how exited I am that we are getting a large submarine which I believe is the first time for the scale it will be. The reason I say that is because I've always wanted a large scale Penguin sub ever since the first Lego Batman game was released. I just hope that the sub sells well enough for Lego to consider remaking the 06 Penguin sub but on a much larger scale.

Honestly it's about time we got a decent sized submarine. I can't wait to see how that turns out. I always wanted a large Penguin sub from Batman but it never came, this will be for sure a day one pickup for me.

In all honesty I am not the best when it comes to LOTR lore so you are probably right. I do think it was prominent enough to merit a set from Lego though. I've viewed a few sites that go into some detail on what was inside, it's worth a look if you are interested.

I wasn't aware of that, so thank you. I think then you're right with the initial escape scene, that would make sense and I think it's arguably the most iconic scene from Indiana jones. I would be more than happy with that to be honest! As long as we get the Grail Knight I'll be happy.

We need a new MTT for sure. I actually didn't take note that it was bigger than the Falcon to be honest. But if they do decide to do the Ghost as an UCS set with an interior then I would imagine it'd be smaller than the Falcon. Just as the system scale version was.

What are people's opinions on if Lego will give us full interiors with UCS sets, given the recent inclusions of them in the AT-AT and Razor Crest?

It does seem very strange they would do every movie expect KOTCS and given the facf that there aren't really many set options for that movie then the price would make sense to be the temple.

It would be interesting to see how they make the underground section of Gringotts. I imagine it would be like the chamber of secrets with the Great Hall but the only problem with that is it would not look right with the rest of DA.

I thought it was? It's like the Sequel Trilogy for SW is technically not George Lucas continuity but it is if that makes sense?

I just think the new room of requirement is very lazy and lacklustre. There is absolutely nothing going on in the interior of that set at all, and given how this style of Hogwarts started out with decent interiors it makes even more disappointing. I understood to some extent that the Hogwarts sections from 2018-2020 were more about exterior than interior and that showed, but the new style exterior is nothing to write home about and now neither are the interiors, to be honest I've felt like that since the summer wave.

I'm sure if we are to get a KOTCS set it will be the temple as it is the most stand out part of the movie. Maybe a D2C later on in the year? I am under the impression that the Diorama is not a D2C.

Exactly, and who knows maybe if the tower features in the Rings of Power then we will see the interior anyway.

Yeah. I know we got the Fluffy Encounter but I mean to get the flying keys area, a smaller chess area to fit in and then the actual area where Harry faces off against Quirill.

I personally hope not, I don't want to spend all this time collecting HP Hogwarts sets just to get another Great Hall or Hospital Wing next year you know? It'd be much better to make more classrooms, common rooms/dorms, offices, even TPS areas to fit in on the bottom floor etc than reset again.
