  1. Welcome Yes it is a part I have been expecting for many years, since it only needs a new head piece! After all the hammerhead is more widely known than the sawshark we have had for more than 20 years in Lego, but that is part of the fun with Lego and animal moulds we never know what we will get next Maybe we will have to wait over 20 years now for a male lion head or maybe we get it next year
  2. Tribal medicine man with buffalo head piece and a turkey mould Islander woman with a cooking pot and the big snake Sheepherder with a new sheep mould and a staff Medieval farmer woman with a goat in a new color and a chicken Pirate woman with a monkey and a treasure chest with gold coins Pond owner with a new koi carp mould and a net German hunter with the dachshund in black/tan A statue or minifig dressed up as a statue with a new pigeons mould A big gamer fisherman with a new rod/reel and a sailfish mould Lady Marion in green with bow and arrow and a new fox mould Governor Broadside with a parrot in a new color A man dressed up like a tiger with new a tiger mould cub A woman dressed for cleaning garbage on the beach with a bag and a new turtle mould A girl dressed for horse-riding with a new updated horse foal A cowboy bounty hunter with a poster and a new vulture mould To bad with the piñata boy in an otherwise excellent series with a lot of animal moulds
  3. I think Pursuit of Flight has the best chance, it is small and original just the way ideas like it Anatomini will probably also make it since the sets carried over from last round often do. The rest is harder to predict, but may get one more I think.. Personally I hope for Medieval Blacksmith mostly because it has a goat in a new color
  4. Personally I think most of the castle sets on ideas are too large and do not go together with sets that Lego have released earlier, but if means we get the goat in a new color (maybe even the horse and rabbit also) I am all for it gets approved
  5. Has anyone ever bought these parts and remember what they cost? GOLD COIN (4 PIECES), METALL Element-ID70501 COINS, "NO.1100" Element-ID6052266 I assume they will be available because of the pirate sets coming this year. They cost a lot on BL
  6. It was no problem! I sent a mail first and asked if the parts where available. They were so the person answering the mail made an order so it should be easier when I called in to order the parts, but when I did the person taking my order made a new one. That’s why the original order was market "contact customer service" So now the lioness and blue bird parts (in addition to some snakes) are on their way, no worries
  7. It it interesting, but people try to see patterns even if it are not any. So if they are following your pattern there must be a vehicle and a scene set, if there is no pattern they can be anything I do not think they will combine those either. I just remember the last bulky Durmstrang ship so that is not high on my wish list, but a new one would probably look much better.. Trying to speculate a pattern of my own. If I remember correct Lego decided to make 20 HP sets in the beginning, so that is 5 sets per 2 movies. 2018 had 5 sets (+2FB), maybe they decided to skip FB in 2019 because of lower sales, no movie coming out etc. So 2019 gets its 5 sets, but also 2 extra in a later wave they where not planning to make in the beginning. Lego have from the start seen that the sets sell extremely well so now they have had time to adjust , so in 2020 we get the 5 sets that where planned. In addition we also get privet drive a set they where not planning originally to make from film 1-2 and a Hedwig to try and expand the line up of sets.. I know it is a messy pattern, but it would be interesting to know which 20 sets they decided to make in the beginning, not that it matters much anymore since we get additional sets every year because of the good sales.. COS was obviously a set they decided to skip since they put the basilisk in the GH set, but now most bets are off so it is definitely back on the table with the rest of the sets they where skipping in the beginning
  8. The problem with the Fan media days are that very few of the interviews gets published at least a short time after it happens. It is kind of frustrating to wait the interviews to get published
  9. If the 80's sets had 3000 parts and today's parts maybe I really looking forward to seeing the finished product Edit; sorry tough that was the designer of the pirate bay It definitely could, but since we did not get a "out of the vault" set last year, maybe Lego are finished with the theme
  10. Do you mean exactly what is coming in creator 3 in 1 this year?!
  11. There are several reasons they most likely will never re-release the old sets: They tried a few and it was not a success (To be fair that was in the all time low period of Lego) Several of the colours have changed over the years do to factory upgrades (e.g. grey) They do not look as good as new sets! Yes a few of us buy the old sets, because we collect them, they are part of Lego history or we always wanted them, but never got them as kids etc. That said if they gave the mission to a designer to make a set today with the same size as an old set, then put the 2 sets in front of kids i am sure 9 of 10 would choose the new one. There are a lot more parts an building techniques that the designer back in the day did not have access to.. If Lego must choose between making a new set or re-release a old one they will always make a new. The only reason they made "out of the vault" was because they where in addition to the new sets. If the pirate bay are selling a lot I think we may see more pirate sets in the future
  12. Especially since he makes a septate post after that with the other sets Maybe privet drive is also covered in sitting and flying owls from the first movie, would not that be something
  13. On my latest order it says " Please contact Customer Service"! when I checked the status Has anyone experienced that before? I have sent them a mail, but waiting for a reply
  14. Thanks for the review! To be fair the egg mould is almost bigger than the hen and are mostly used as dinosaur eggs in sets I like the set, but could have included a second hen/chicken to be even better
  15. Looks plain to me, probably helps with a poncho.. I have not much use for a piñata and I feel it have taken the spot of a new animal mould It also gets me a little worried it is "party" themed since I definitely do not want a repeat of series 18 I give it 3/6 since it could definitely be a better more useful fig, but could also be worse. The kids will probably love it and for some reason I see piñatas for sale in grocery stores in Norway now, so a trendy item I assume.. I guess there is a high chance for more leaks now
  16. I bought that not long ago myself. Lego may make it again, but I am sure it is brick built so I did not want to take any chances.. I have a few of the old sets included the basilisk, since I bought a collection of HP sets right after coming out of the dark age years ago. Other than that I just wait patiently for Lego to release everything better looking than the older sets
  17. Thanks for the info
  18. Hi and welcome! Please feel free to use my idea for a future set : Regarding your current set, I really like your squirrels , but I feel it is a little lacking in the animal mould department with only 2 squirrels and a horse in such a big set.. Lego ideas is a place were fans can make and see their dream sets come true and in my opinion they should use the opportunity to include more animals than the normal sets have E.g. your set would be the perfect opportunity to include the new deer from Harry Potter in a normal color, after all part of the reason the Forestmen where outlaws where because they hunted the kings deer. There is even a deer on their coat of arms. A couple of goats in a new color would also make a lot of fans happy if it passes review So at least consider making a update with a few extra animals included. I will support it and post the same comment on Ideas as you requested
  19. Would love it, but I guess they have to be small enough to fit in the BAM packaging I have not double checked, but from memory I think: the hammer is from the CMF dwarf the police and wizard hat also from CMF clown hair CMF witch and clown face CMF underwear from city, Mrs Santa dress from winter village and spider dress CMF several of the torsos from CMF ?
  20. You can send a mail to Lego customer service and ask, maybe you are lucky
  21. Well the last one was a top10 best seller for Lego in 2018 so I think it is only a matter of time before we get a new one. Maybe we will get one this year, but I feel the chance dropped somewhat after the reveal of the Hedwig set. Could also mean they are making some new type of sets in a very popular theme and that we get a D2C regardless If we get one this year I hope it is system/minifig based since I am really not a collector of other scales, but fear it might be because of the popularity of the D2C Hogwarts
  22. It will probably be 16 plus 1 special one like the ones you mentions I assume the more figs a series has the more expensive it is for Lego to produce because of new moulds, extra parts/prints to produce etc..
