    I see no evidence of snot work, so this must be a new piece as well :)

    Castle in the Forest is the latest to have a shield with a sticker. But this is a bricklink set and has a precedence of no new printed elements. However, the printed shields are available in the Forest Hideout,too bad they could not have included them in the Castle in the Forest. Winner! Why is this topic taboo? Can't we discuss things as adults without getting censored and or slapped?

    It is live!

    These events are so horrible to sit through. The last one I watch was the 10th anniversary reveal for the modular line. What a bore for an hour and fifty eight minutes, then two minutes dedicated to the modular. Never again.

    This makes me smile. Well done.

    Yes, but don't.

    I am surprised that Optimus Prime is still available. I may have to pick that up on the 15th. Five have sold on eBay in the past three days. Average price during this time: $72

    I predict $50 within a month, $100 after two years.

    Because we have to complain about something while we wait. I do love LEGO sets, but the company I am disliking more and more as of late. They are getting too political, and straying too far too fast from what has been successful in the past.

    Same. Except for me there is no might, I won't be paying $450.

    Spoiler alert! We’re celebrating our 90th Anniversary at LEGO® CON 2022. Shhh … that means we’re announcing something awesome. Watch the livestream on 18 June 2022, 5pm London, 12pm New York, 9am Los Angeles.

    My guess is that the MB will be sold out.

    I feel enlightened. Thanks. P.S. Lego is trending towards more diversity in everything, so I would be surprised if we are disappointed in the minifig selection. Added spoiler tag for you @SirBlake. It looks better on a big screen.

    I don't get this reasoning. Back in the day every castle line had many, many, figs. The Kingdoms line for example: the 16 sets containing 59 figs, and this is just the latest line. We have had around a dozen full castle lines going back to the 80s. We had had plenty of opportunities to accumulate medieval figs. Every line has had nice rare figs hidden among both large and small sets. Medieval figs are everywhere! I see them on marketplaces everyday. However: we have never had the opportunity to buy a castle of this scale! Yeah, that's a lot of minifigures, and this is just one sub-theme Kingdoms!

    No. Just look at the sketches.

    Is it too early to refer to this set by what it really is: The Queens Castle?

    Waiting is annoying. Just publish it already!

    I came, clicked, and ended up voting for the mini-golf. It has charm.

    I was wrong. They sold fast. They moved fast enough that I had to get in and buy all five.

    I visited the site again; I just cant get motivated by any of the entries this time. However, my prediction for the first five four to reach 3000: 1950s-Diner Modular-Construction-Site Winter-Chalet Mountain-View-Observatory Yes, only four make it this time.

    Optimus prime is a June set. So with the above logic, we have 2 months to wait

    Löwenstein Castle is just right of center, and the rightmost one is Löwenstein Castle - Official Expansion. Together they are 2002+1627=3629 Pieces. I discussed this set back on this post.

    This I am sure it was considered early in the design process, and the idea thrown out after just a few conversations. The Blacksmith set is not scaled even close to anything in the historic line. A castle to fit that scale would be 10,000 blocks minimum. I am confident that we will get a castle that is scaled to fit in with any of the previous "King's Castle" sets. I decided not to build and display the Blacksmith along with my other medieval sets for this exact reason. It just looks so out of proportions to any of the sets below. The castle in the Forest is the only one that is close, but still not right. What is up with you guys and your obsession with goats?

    I check this daily. I don't know why. I need to stop.

    "I’d rather have the minifigures the biggest and best castle ever. I can buy more pieces minifigs." I get the counter argument; but I have tens of thousands of figs already. I have only a million or so blocks. But is all seriousness: The castle has to be grand and something special. If the castle is blah, no amount of figs will get me to buy this set.
