    Well this video really did justice to me for Aston Martin set. Really that Valkyrie, wow... Sadly Im not great with stickers under Countach for blinkers.

    Lego needs to fix two problems with their 8 stud cars, such as speed champions and Creator. First of all, make speed champions cabin higher to fit figure with hairs. Even hairs that are in sets do not fit into car with minifigure. Supra is bad in this because its primary civilian car and minifigure provided in set has bulky hairs... This problem is not seen in creator 8 stud wide cars, but there is second problem. Albeit height is right, these creator sets do not use speed champions baseplates, so there is no way to fit two minifigure inside like in new creator car 31127 Street racer. Its kinda good that these two problems are not interchangeable, but are still there... These problems, are for sure limiting playing with these sets...

    I just saw details of street racer. This set is very speed championized and b and c model seems lackluster, so Im really curious what is possible to do with that set else. I think these big wheels are very limiting other alternate models... Albeit it reminds me a lot some tuned SUV from 2000 era... Which is nice throwback!

    There needs to be literally only one solution to this. Motorized bogie(Like classic 9v motor but modern motor inside) with DCC inside. Everything will be solved for me... Yeah and tracks. I will pay if this will be real, these battery thingy trains gets me off totally.... I have more fun with static three parts DMU made from parts from two 60197 sets. Just sitting on shelf. And some scenery around... If there will be 9V around, that train will be riding endlessly by just changing one bogie.

    I love this serie, really how 8 studs wide car can be really interesting work of art. I love it even better, when they speed championized Batmobiles like Tumbler. I love models that can work very well without stickers, call me mad man but I love just pure work of bricks. Speed champions work great with boxy designs of older cars, so 512 m is best from them, I can get rid of any stickers and its still same car. Countach is good too, but this car feels modernized not 1980s era Countach.I love my Countach sharp as knife edge! Im very interested in Mercedes pack, albeit Im not buying this it Now the bad things, Elvija is generic lego supercar, I do not recognize Evija at all. Get rid of stickers and generic supercar is made. That stickers on back, are really bad even on promo photos. But worst of all is that Aston Martin duo pack, I do not recognize any of these cars as real life cars. These two cars are just weird lego reenditions... Best thing are printed headlights, Im getting rid of stickers for good. Thank you!Supra will be better with this pieces(Well supra needs complete overhaul of headlights, I just bought it because it was cheap set that fill my diorama). So summer sets, will be probably piece of cake according to leaked cars. I just hope that third set is Delorean that go well with Creator expert one.

    Bla, bla, bla bull*hit bingo perfect! Why dont you buy every set on market, why you expect from me to buy set that is parodying Gay communitiea Yes this is stereotypical view of gay community. Its trash set... Believe me or not we have in family lesbian couple, they dont want this representation by corporates. They wants to live normal life live everybody. Do you understand? This set is parodying these communities. And buying this you are part of problem! Believe me or not!

    If any of you understand capitalism and market, we will be free of these questions. No lets I want from some administrators to completely erase my account with every post, Im not participating with lego communities anymore. They are just waste of free time! Thats request with GDPR in my mind... Go woke go broke and bored...
  8. Ondra
    You are hardly understanding market, probably never sold something or run something. They tried, they failed. Maybe try again but another time the will completely get set like this off rails. And btw Playmobil is going to get Mr. Bean license, yeah Playmobil is getting IP rights so far I say. And yes they are getting representation right, these figures always smile and they can be whatever you choose to them. For me its still company with family and christian traits in minds. No offense, lego is kids toys company not some platform...

    I will tell you where is the harm, small shops buy sets directly from lego but when they dont sell there is big money loss for these small shops. They think that this set will sell, because lego presumably do some research so they order some cartons like always or lego tells them to which sets in what quantity they need to order. Its very complicated, its not like lego take these sets back and pay them back. Some star wars figure merchandise from disney era trilogy were big flop, they are still on shelves as seen on few forums. Its like cinemas are having bad times, because most movies are flops...

    Maybe stop minimod me, OK? Im just giving facts!

    Anybody remember ghostbusters firehouse ideas set drama? Designer gets 10 000 votes and many expected to be like Ecto 1 to be labelled under ideas badge and small cut gets also designer like always Guess what, they cut him completely and after backlash they offer him set to be quiet and ideas rules changed. Literally IDEAS became free market research site for them...

    LEGO is Being Sued for Copyright Infringement Over Leather Jacket Design - The Fashion Law This is very interesting reading, they supposedly offer him free set to be quiet when nothing arrives because lego stated that they dont give free things(Except for youtubers and fan sites to boost sales) and he gets mad. Lego lawyer states it will be for him uphill battle... Lego takes turn from Emmet to Lord Bussiness . Tell me how believable are these big corporate companies if they try to "Rebuild the world".
  13. Ondra
    Truly interested how they do that aerodynamic design on Evija . And if they try best to do Countach without large amount of stickers.
  14. Ondra
    You dont get my point. So we dont get anywhere. This set was just one designer dream without anything from business standpoint backing him. I just find it so ironic to actually get lego into legal troubles...

    Between everybody knows and everybody buys is very thick line. This show is on paid on demand service and has very limited potential to be popular with anybody. Mr Bean is just weird mute dude doing funny things, kids understand him non speaking understand him too + its completely free on youtube and after 30 years is still known and loved IP . All these big corporate companies one day understand, that pleasing folks on Twitter is very bad for business standpoint. Especially with set in this price point...
  16. Ondra
    Catastrophic job from business standpoint, really. Set that is mostly full stock here, nobody knows this show, they are now getting sued for pieces so they probably take it from store shelfs till its resolved. Maybe these piece will have resale value in future, who knows. Im asking myself, will all this happen when they tried Mr Bean show set? :D . No, No and No!

    Im seeing stocks of lego sets from so many internet shops here. We were on different path from west for 40 years. Most of these sitcoms, guitars, game console were off for so many people here. We dont have any sentiment for this, I think this can be transferred to all states with same history. Only set that sells very well were Friends, because this was big hit here. Nobody knows Seinfeld to be actually say hey lets buy it for it what it is. Muppets, they were on main television when I was kid 25 years ago! Typewriter, what the hell. I can buy fully working one with local history here for 10 euro and Im not even kidding. Stratocaster, nintendo retro television they do not sell here. Everything is awesome set too. I learnt about queer team apartment because I dont know what it is. These sets just sits on shelf and nobody is buying them. On the other hand Batman Tumbler(minifig scale) is out of stock for months here. Superheroes and mainly Batman sells here too good. Same goes with speed champions. Krokodil locomotive is sold out everywhere. Trains seems to be selling quite well too. There is probably statistic of every state in Europe what sells good there and there. But in my opinion what will sell like hotcakes everywhere will be Mr Bean sets, everybody knows Mr Bean. He is even free on Youtube by official channel. And Big Boy every train fan knows big boy, like krokodil, TGV, ICE Pendolino or Santa Fe. TEE mostly too. And Orient express most famous train in media thanks to Agatha Christie.

    Well for me are trains discontinued already. This theme is just on life support. I dont call this theme living, if we are getting two trains for 4 years lifespan, one adults locomotive between. And nothing else. If somebody ask me to start lego trains I say no, its pointless nowadays. Viable train theme needs constant support of wagons and locomotives not only tracks.And whats gets me off is battery powered trains and very pricey electronics and no rechargeable batteries for control +. Whats fun of trains? You can multiple wagons very easily . One wagon means one set sold. One train can consist of five same sets without anybody thinking its weird. Im so sad, because on Ideas are many train sets that gets support, yet we get another sitcom that nobody is buying here. Most of these winning ideas sets are just weird from selling point . I hope for big boy to win, yes everybody who loves trains knows Big Boy locomotive. Most big boy models are miniatures that sells for around 1000 euro. Im not even kidding. Just sell lego set for 150 euro, it will be still great way to put it somewhere in house without risking of breaking it.

    5. Regular and "boring" EMU or DMU that runs all day and all night. You know, train that use every regular Joe and Jane to get to job.

    Im asking this myself so many times, when Im having trains and speed champions cars on same diorama. Cars drastically evolved from 4 studs to 8 studs with two minifig seats. I know city cars are six studs, which is same sizeas train baseplate. Im guessing they stick to 6 studs, because switching to bigger scale needs so many funding and understanding from train fans, that I dont know if it will be popular move. Now there is supposed only one city train for 2022, so lets will be prepared for worse. And worse I mean that lego get rid of city trains in future. For lego are trains probably very niche market today... Shame on them...

    I can totally see another minifig version of Ghostbusters Ecto1. Last was from 2014, its 8 years from initial release and they still have license. Maybe another minifig BTTF Delorean too. Go and figure...
  22. Ondra
    Well I will not be shocked, if one day they completely get rid of trains. Another high speed train(With no cargo train confirmed), yeah really innovative considering they are doing this for 30 years... Why not push-pull scheme with locomotive and wagon with cab. These trains are really popular. Or double-decker wagons. Push pull double decker train set, whatever lego! Do something really innovative. I know there is big battery box, that limits design a lot. Trains really gets me into lego, now Im willing to pay for anything interesting. P.s.:I already found very interesting shop that sell train MOCs, but I want to give another try for Lego.

    Tell to people before purchase and they pull back from purchase these set immediately. This proved all my points day after. Well done they outdone themselves...

    You sound like you never watched any Bond movie so this last true Bond movie means nothing to you. There is line, that was crossed, and they want from me to come back and tell like this never happen... This happens a lot, for sake of shocks they destroyed all of these characters, movie places that we love. And they are replacing them with generic superhero that actually nobody cares at all. Takes these modern unfunny, uninspiring movies constantly reminding to someone how they are bad for sake of breathing. Im not paying for this for ever...
  25. Ondra
    Dont try pick me on every world I say... I give movie a spin based on unpaid fan reviews If is entertaining me and not lecturing me... Last film for me was Bond movie, guess what they destroyed Bond legacy. So I do not have any heroes left... These new films are not only destroying legacy, they are destroying whole industry with small cinemas in mind.
