It's really hard to tell whether it's dark tan or pearl gold. I looked up pictures of the real car. It looks like the engine was actually gold, but those wires were black. So they could have brought back the black feather instead! But I suspect it's pearl gold.

I stopped using the Lego subreddit probably 10-15 years ago because it was just pictures of boxes. Eurobricks is still the best place to discuss Lego as far as I'm aware, but it's not as active as it used to be. I think the hobby in general has largely turned into mindless consumerism. That being said, do you have any builds to share with us?

The silver mace is a welcome addition. I'm trying not to get my hopes up after the Majisto's Workshop and Sea Serpent letdowns, but that's a very specific part I've been waiting for.

Yeah, the shield is massively disappointing. The Black Knights are my favorite castle faction and I've been hoping for a new version ever since they introduced the new shield design in 10305. I never had much hope for this set as a GWP, but I was really hoping for those shields. The Zelda shields are awful. Even if you like the shape, the handle style greatly reduces its functionality. It's such a poorly designed piece. Now I have no hope for the future of Black Knights because there's no chance they're going to give us a different shield in a future set after this. We'll probably get a new Black Knight's Castle and it's going to look like dog crap, like this set. The only positive thing about this set is the sail, but I'm not going to spend $180 to get that, and it's really too small to be useful anyway. I'm extremely disappointed. We've waited so long for this.

Yeah, I agree with danth. This is an extremely boring set. It doesn't seem to be a very compelling pinball experience. The minifigure has mostly been released already and now I'm extremely annoyed that I bought the ones with yellow hands, not that it was one of my top color choices anyway. I didn't have high expectations for this set, but it's underwhelming no matter how you look at it. I was really hoping we would at least get a couple good classic space parts out of it, but there's absolutely nothing here I'm interested in buying. I don't know who this set is for.

A Creator pirate ship is coming this year. No other info yet.

Yeah, the Harry Potter horse. I'd like to buy a bunch of them for my cavalry. I've almost given up hope now that they'll show up. I didn't realize they were on PAB in 2019. I guess I missed out. You might as well buy them from Bricklink at these prices. The smaller one is almost $9. It's a lot cheaper on Bricklink.

Definitely the Troubadour for me. It's a great minifigure in its own right, but it's also great because it gave us a new color of plume (which appeared on PAB, and now I have hundreds!) and a blue forestmen hat so we can finally have a classic forestman in blue using Majisto's torso.

Is there any news on the August parts? I've been waiting over a year for the white horse to appear. It was introduced in a June set last year and it's being discontinued this year. We're also still waiting on the skirt from the Medieval Town Square.

I just got a USPS email saying my October PAB order is finally being delivered on Saturday. 110 days. That's absolutely insane. I'm still waiting on more parts I ordered for Brickworld a few days later. I'm not going to have much time to build my display before the show.

Where did you see the new BAM parts?

They seem to be hinting at a bright light blue (or maybe just blue?) classic space minifigure 80116, as reported by New Elementary.

Great find! That's in line with the hint in the Renegade instructions that a Futuron set is coming.

An exclusive Blacktron minifigure is coming soon in a new DK book: https://www.thebrickfan.com/lego-minifigure-a-visual-history-updated-and-expanded-coming-september/

I forgot to mention - has anyone else had an issue with the space camera being molded wrong? I saw someone mention it in the comments on Jang's review. It has an extra section of plastic that prevents the 1x1 round plates from attaching. The element ID is 436026.
