    Nicely spotted, did not see that one even if I quickly scanned the set for animals

    For some reason parts out of stock just disappear now Aquarium leaked, I only see 4 snails, the rest of the animals are brick built

    BLDP are a rather niche product compared to a normal Lego set, I have no interest in them and I am probably not alone. I addition a casual buyer will never stumble upon them in a shop. However you are right Lego missed the mark with this one, something closer to the prelim and it would have sold a lot more I think. It still is on sale and that is saying a lot, many people still think it is to expensive for what you get.. I was on a talk by TLG in SFW about getting a job at Lego. Basically it was how they hire designers. And what was mentioned most times was the need to be able to build smaller (like one with fantastic MOCs can be useless as a Lego designer) and MTS is a perfect example. The prelim is what you like to make, then they reduce the budget and force you to build something cheaper and we end up with MTS on a budget..

    It off course sold out after a short time, will pop up again when it is in stock..

    They have nothing to do with the price, that is probably a more sinister department higher up in the system Can hope, but not so often PAB parts go on sale and even at half the price it's to expensive..

    Apparently January as a compromise between the PAB team and whoever wanted to keep them out of the service, however only the Space men are confirmed so far Sorry to take away your hope, but I know a PAB employee have cheeked it and confirmed the price was right A wrong price was my initial hope as well, so BL or swapping it is

    That's what I was worried about so ordered a small flock without any GWP etc (not a thing that I normally do), Hopefully they are back in stock when the double points hit The unicorn shield is very expensive

    The only reason that make sense is that it is exclusive to one set and TLG rather want us to buy that set than buy them loose on PAB. After all the PAB team had to fight hard to get the minifigures from the vending machine to PAB at all (I am starting to fear the price on them now) so this might be a much more important reason than I thought in regards to prices on PAB I hope the pigeon will show up in a lot of sets at least if there is a correlation between what we pay and the designers use of the budget for the part? It would be really funny if the BAM team use the fox next year It seems it has showed up at Legoland Germany for a much more sensible price, but that is not confirmed (just that some German BL sellers have started selling them in higher numbers)..

    The price do not say anything about the budget, compare it to 7189 Mill Village Raid that is a proper high budget set and it cost a lot less. We would probably not have gotten the goat back if it where not for this set, but it needed the help of the CMF to pull it of. If it had a higher budget it could have done that and maybe included a goat kid as well (in addition to a lot more animals)...

    Set is retiring so the part are going as well.. Only 1 seagull, they just got 2 different numbers.. Some of the animals are up, some are better than expected, and some a lot worse! Pigeon $ 1.6 Wolf pup $2 Fox $16!! Friends pony $10!
  11. Roebuck
    Thanks for the tip Flock of pigeons flying my way
  12. Roebuck
    Probably our best chance at getting them cheap yes Could be the same issue as the minifigs so they will show up in January Was not expecting them to be so small around the foal in size Skarbæk fan weekend, one of the biggest Lego happenings in the world More like the pink or purple side A lot is going away soon: https://www.newelementary.com/p/lego-pick-brick-retiring-parts.html

    No, but hopefully decent enough that we get another one in 2027 It was several things, we wanted the prelim that leaked and instead we got a low budget version instead, with fewer minifigs, a lot of stickers and almost no animals. If they are giving us 1 castle set every 3 years then it should be something like the LKC with a decent budget..

    Was with the rest of the upcoming parts on display in SFW, so should come this week, however seems like there is a change of plans and several of the parts have been delayed including that one
  16. Roebuck
    I hope the numbers are not as bad as I have guesses, but they might even be worse with the $7 sheep (that is retiring soon) I see the pigeon has dropped in price on BL, do anyone know if the animals are up in Legoloand Germany yet?
  17. Roebuck
    Yes
  18. Roebuck
    No idea..
  19. Roebuck
    Seems like the wolf are not part of the release later this week after all, Pigeon and fox are there (wonder what the price will be) Only the Friends shield so nothing much for the Castle fans as far as I could see after a glance (hopefully January)
  20. Roebuck
    Bricktap discord.. PAB will get new parts later this week including pignons, fox etc.. Unfortunately a lot of animals will retire soon as well as sets they are in stop production..
  21. Roebuck
    Its on sale on the Lego.com, 20% off, I assume they will sell the rest of their stock now..
  22. Roebuck
    The leak was in conjunction with some new parts coming next year I do not know more than that, probably an American leaker so could be other similar species I guess.. The small bird is printed in the D&D CMF, but only on the head...
  23. Roebuck
    Seems like we are getting birds printed like an American robin and Loggerhead shrike or similar next year. Hopefully more interesting animals will leak as well
  24. Roebuck
    They have not seen the set for a couple of weeks in the Lego house shop and since it was a outgoing set the guy I asked was not sure they would get more stock. Luckily the employee shop had it so I could buy it as planned And this is just one shop, but if people like me have been waiting to get it, maybe not wait until x-mas eve to get it is all I am saying
  25. Roebuck
    It came in the City train set and will pop on PAB this month..
