I might pick some up and help that happen quicker

Oh good another thing we wont see in the UK, thanks Lego keep making sets for ebay! Why should lego make money from there products by selling them to people when they can give them away and let other people sell them. Oh and maybe minifigures for boys and minidolls for girls another top idea that one.

Do we have any idea of price and how big, how many parts?

^ Thanks

^ Thanks was going to ask if these are the same as the old ones, how does LUGbulk work?

I am thinking about bricklinking the parts just need to decide what colours to use. One question what balls do I need and where can I get them in good numbers?

Wow just using this for the first time and it is great very easy to use but I do have a problem. Edit: Never mind I have worked it all out, thanks again for this great tool.

^ There is enough for one more at lest if we get the family yet again then I think the others could all be well known.

What Disney cmf just2good?

Why do you think they will miss a year, do you know something about next years cmf?

I agree with this, it would also help the transition for kids. I started buying technic when I was a young kid and I spent hours playing with then as you would with normal minifigures. Even as an afol having a driver as also nice.

That would be great although I guess the wings will be soft like space batman :(.

Thanks for that, my point was I hope it is the same fig so I don't feel like I need it or something really new so that I am happy to buy it.

^ Yep we are missing very important things but we are not missing 100s of sets just one wave would do it if they did it right.

^ if they were going to do this they should have done so before now, a lot of people now wont know which ones need to make it in 15days or not.

^ That is poor, my store will hold it till the next day. If your a long way for a store you wont be happy if you get there and its gone.

For me as a kid having technic Lego which was the same as systems Lego was great, technic was a great source of large plates in sets like 8872. I find it odd how most afol hate large parts in system sets but all technic sets are full of them. I really dislike the look of technic sets now covered in large studless panels. If technic sets look like 76023 The Tumbler and had functions like 42030 Volvo L350F Wheel Loader it would not have taken me so long to come on this forum. I should love technic and I used to but I just don't find it legoie enough for me like the action figures like 4526 Batman. The only thing that has made me take a second look is the power functions but even then so few drive the vehicle and when they do there is no variable speed or controlled steering. I do love the Linear Actuator but that's about it.

^^ This, I hope I can hold out if these turn up. But I WANT A OLIPHAUNT Lego why do you keep showing us what we could have got?

After 28 pages of posts we better get something.

I didn't read who the poster was and just responded, bet you loved my response BrickJagger.

^ Yes hoping for them soon too, I have some gift cards I need to spend waiting for them to show up.

I don't really know why you would want the almost the same print but a little bit different just for the sake of it, then having to pay £15 for it. Now something really new that would be different.

There has been a rumour that a new castle line is coming that will include everything us afol ever wanted and now we have one for us space fans too. I agree that classic space could work but I am not holding out much hope until I see it.

Thanks Owen very helpful. "one chick up and down?" I meant click. So now I understand the difference between the controllers. I agree that I might end up using very few technic bits for some of these ideas and that the ones I use will be hidden although I would still like it to be neat. For the Sea Cow my first thought would be to build a frame which would use technic parts and having it on a pivot point like a seesaw which would take the weight. And like you say I would only want a soft movement up and down nothing crazy. So I guess 42030 would be a good Power Functions pack for me and after that just brick link what I need.

Yep I don't think we will get more sets and I am not a hater I would love more sets.
