  1. Not useful for me most likely, but interesting nonetheless. Frinds have so far mostly had only small animals, but a adult and a juvenile elephant in addition to a white tiger and a panda this summer. At least the elephants have to be big! They can use the big cat mould from city for the white tiger, but doubt we are that lucky Last year friends had sets based on saving animals in the sea and this year it sounds like city get somewhat similar sets, so there should at least be a few animals there maybe even some new ones Would not surprise me if we get a elephant in a city set next year
  2. HP is a good seller in 2019 also From what I understand with google translate 1 of 7 mentioned themes (SW is not among them) that preform well
  3. Depends on how much are reveled and have long it takes to write reports from the different themes. Within a few hours at least, maybe 1-2, but do not hold your breath regarding HP leaks because of the last 2-3 years limited leaks from toy fairs
  4. Zusammengebaut have a live coverage of the toy fair, they say most sets are not allowed to take pictures of, but that they will report what they see at least.. In house themes are more likely to be present than licensed ones like HP, but maybe we are lucky this year
  5. Not the catalogue customers can pick up for free, but the secret one where the shop get to decide which sets they are going to order the coming months
  6. I assume the sets where at Nuremberg last year on a restricted room like in 2018, not that it will do us much good this year unless someone is talking.. We have to wait for leaks or in worst case until Lego lifts the NDA I have probably asked this before, but do not remember the answer; When do shops get the HY2 catalogue, in May?
  7. From Brickset: "Update: Unfortunately, we have been instructed not to share any information about what was on display at the moment." We can still hope some other people that where on the fair will spill the beans, but the chances are slim Maybe better luck next week in Nuremberg
  8. Maybe city will not give as a new farm set, but ideas might https://ideas.lego.com/projects/299064a7-4585-425b-8ee2-73ab7730c498 It is a excellent set, but I hope the creator make a update with even more animals included like goats, cows and pigs, should be room for some in that barn
  9. Definitely the lioness! There was nothing special with the monkey, it had been in several other sets and I felt it was a wasted opportunity to give us a new animal back in the day. A zebra from a recolored horse would be much better without creating a new mould.. We also get a parrot as a bonus in the new set
  10. If so; Lego it was not a brown rabbit minifig I was asking for, but a recolor of the rabbit mould
  11. From what I understand Lego have had a "room" with all the good stuff where only people with a special invite to get in during the London and Nurnberg toy fair.. This has at least been the case previously, where the first reports say that it was not much news or thing of interest at the fair, then later someone that has been on the restricted area reports all sorts of secrets and new stuff on display
  12. At least they did not close the shop this year, so it that means we have to wait a little longer for the order's that is fine by me
  13. Do you think it is possible we get a Fred and George in the CMF, but rather different e.g. one in quidditch and one Weasleys' Wizard Wheezes uniform, so people just can buy 2 of each if they want? Personally I am more interested in new animal moulds (as usual) than swords. Hopefully it will be the same amount of animals as series 1 London Toy Fair starts tomorrow, hopefully some leaks are coming soon
  14. It could be, but the same was the case with the lobster. After Lego had put it in several unlicensed sets it came up for sale on B&P, the same will probably happen with the small bird. It is only a matter of time, the new lioness is still not up either, but they add new parts all the time now.. It is not like the animals are any licensed characters, they are generic animals that just by chance showed up in a licensed set first
  15. Welcome That would be a set I would buy a lot of You also has some other interesting guesses, but the ship is most likely not coming next year.. A D2C is not out of the question, if and of what remains to be seen Be that as it may, I personally still hope the next D2C is system scale, since I prefer that scale and there are a lot of part from HP that can benefit fram a D2C treatment in system scale
  16. A small Easter set with a bunny minifig and the chicken/hen piece in white has leaked. Unfortunately no rabbit mould in a new color yet
  17. I remember they had problems with this earlier, apparently not fixed and bullet proof yet So I took a screenshot of the order in case there are any troubles. Lego will undo the error, but you usually have to discover it yourself and tell them A few of the smaller animals have a cheap or decent price, but a lot of them are on the expensive side so I only ordered 2 of each of those. Still hope they will be more affordable on BL, but very few sellers with them there and the prices are extremely high so far. Maybe I am being impatient, but I think thinks are going slow there now, hopefully it has nothing to do with Lego taking over and sellers are reluctant to add more inventory If it has not been mentioned the white frog is for sale now, but no lioness last time I checked..
  18. It is really exciting to see what the sets looks like this year, since we have very few sets from 5-6 in the past we are on new ground here compared to the first 2 waves I sure hope so, but skeptic because of the strict NDAs there New owls maybe, but I would not mind any new set with the excellent thestral mould I think the chance is good in the CMF, but those leaks probably come later
  19. As always I want more animals The dachshund in black(/tan) the goat in any normal colour the rabbit in brown any new animal is good news
  20. No it was from the previous round where they did not make a decision, and it was greenlit at the same time. That probably means that they have worked several months longer on the piano, but I still hope the pirate bay comes first
  21. We got a new dark grey cat in BAM in 2019 and as @williejm just said he found "dark grey cat*, orange tabby cat, light grey cat" in the BAM tower just a few days ago, so plenty of cats there
  22. It will most likely be a best seller with Man U. fans (AFOLs or not), but wonder how many it will sell to other AFOLs Beckham is probably over the moon
  23. BAM It has in no time become the second best place to look for new animals only after the CMF And as long as you are in a Lego store they are much more accessible also (no need to feel 20-30 cmf packs to find the animal you want) I hope series 20 will bring some more farm animals like sheep, goat and pig, since it is only a matter of time before they show up in the BAM tower in a different colour
  24. It up to what you think looks OK. I have seen good MOCs of zoo's made with both duplo and minidoll animals in addition to minifig ones. For me personally the only minidoll animal that are realistic enough are the sparrow (seems like Lego think the same since they have started using it in minifig sets) and the small reef-animals. On the other hand the minifig animals are getting more diverse every year so it should be no problem to make a big zoo only using them now
