    Welcome! And a nice find I forgot about the GWP with the horse, It is a fantastic deal if we can get both Majisto and the horse in one buy I know the dragons knights have the 3 different plumes, but is it possible they remake only the dragon and use some existing parts as the other two?

    Personally I hope they stick to one modular a year, they give us so many other big sets now that I want, so rather spend money on them instead of several moudulars per year. I have also run out of shelf-space for them so it would probably be another set in the box for a long time..

    You are fond of mobs, but I do not think AFOLs are the "best" mob crowd, so maybe you have better luck building a MOC next time with minifigs
  4. Roebuck
    There is still one possibility to get the helmet with plumes; CMF budget! The LKC got help from 2 CMF in 2 different series right. However they came before the set I believe, would be strange to get a GWP with it now and a CMF with it in January probably

    I got my order from the 5th on the 19th already so they have been very fast lately (and 2 from the 1st on the 13th) I have heard that they collect orders from the other side of the pond and ship them there in one go and from there ship them to the recipients, so it may take some extra time compared to me living in a neighbouring country. however seems like all the improvements are really staring to pay of

    Was not the barding and some other parts also 10 years old brought back for the castle last year? I was in the dark age when the Dragon Knights ruled so have no relationship with them, the Black Knights would be better for me if made a return (after all they introduced some of the great moulds the Dragon Knights are known for), but not likely in that set. Black Knights moulds from a quick search (so could have made mistakes): 50% of the credit for these ones together with Crusaders

    Little to no chance then I assume.. This lasted to 2012 so should be doable This is still in production it seems, so just need a print from the shield-smith (would also be great to get for the other fractions): Not very interesting, but still around:
  8. Roebuck
    A print for a shield and a minifig is possible, however I do not believe the MTS has the budget or will to include at least 2 new moulds for the helmet If they do that instead of the goat I will be mad Yes, but GWP do not have budget for new moulds, so then a set in production must take the bill.. Do anyone know when the dragon master helmet and plumes was last used, I guess there is little hope the moulds are useable still?

    If you got the other gwp already, I would contact CS I sure they can help you
  10. Roebuck
    Not very strange, how many extra jaws do you think can you fit in a box of a certain size compared to the orcas Some people may assume the jaw is included also and only order the body
  11. Roebuck
    And they are back a few hours later.. Keep Calm and Carry On! Yes I believe so..
  12. Roebuck
    I think there is no risk waiting for the orcas and they have already been in stock twice. Next time they will probably stay in stock for days and after that for longer periods are my guess. They have done a lot of improvement on PAB lately and I think a situation like with the elephant is less likely to happen these days. What I had not thought of until someone mentioned it was the holiday close-down on PAB, that would likely happen before the Majisto GPW show up. However I asked a person working on the PAB team and he said because of the improvements made to the warehouse the backlog is manageable even during the x-mas rush so there is no plans to close it this year

    Recognised Fan Media sites have not reported it or in some cases removed the info they posted about the set, so it probably means they know more than they can say at the moment.. Would not be surprised it they have seen the set in all its glory already during Fan media days in September, would have liked to be a fly on the wall there for sure

    If you expect to wait for over 5-6 weeks anyway why do you not wait until all the parts you want are in stock or you get a nice GWP out of it It is only a matter of time before they do after all, however the waiting time has been very short now. in the start of the part drop I sent two standard orders 1 of October that arrived 13 of October! I assume the wait time has increased somewhat now with all the orders coming in for the new parts after that.. Personally I save up parts now to order when the Majisto GWP comes in stock in November
  15. Roebuck
    I have the same feeling, but in a set clearly focused on animals I wonder if that is because I have seen the prelim and assume the menagerie lineup is similar to that I had a dream during the night that I found a Lego catalogue of some sort that had 3-4 pages dedicated to this set, unfortunately no picture of the set, but mostly text with a few sketches of ideas for parts of the set. I was about to start reading the text when I woke up so that was a bummer and I have no inside information to share with you today
  16. Roebuck
    Yes, but was that not only the week before or similar? I really miss the monthly store calendars
  17. Roebuck
    A lot of parts make the move from CMF to other things like normal sets and BAM these days so I do not think that is a problem if the designers want it. They do not throw away expensive moulds on a whim, but think I have heard that most CMF parts are produced in China, so if a set producing factory elsewhere needs to include it is a set, maybe they must make a new one then (of course identical to the first one so should not be that expensive compared to make a completely new part) Also possible, but 3 owls is a lot in a set not even most HP sets are close to that these days If we assume that animals around that size cost the same to include I would rather they swap a owl for a another farm animal or maybe a hare etc instead
  18. Roebuck
    Is it not over a month until it is available? Anything closer to now than then is a leak
  19. Roebuck
    Smowl s a good guess to make an appearance! I think there where 3 flying owls in the prelim, but no way they include that many, maybe a flying owl, a smowl and a falcon instead
  20. Roebuck
    Actually comparing it with Mill village raid that had 2 new animal moulds in 3 different colors and 2 old moulds in new colors I expect some animals in new colors. Which animals do you think get new colors in the set? My first guess would be the sheep, to get a "black sheep of the family" Pigs and piglets with spots if they had been in the set, but since they where not in the prelim that is less likely I guess I assume the goat will come in a new color as well
  21. Roebuck
    A new one would be best of course (the black one have not received much love from Lego the last 10 years), second best the white one even if that most likely will show up on PAB or the reddish brown would be fine (apparently it is in circulation, but have not been in any normal set for some time). It has printing, but no harness so it can be used as grazing horse in a enclosure (or a wild horse) 🙂
  22. Roebuck
    The bardings where not new! However they and a lot of other parts had to be brought back into circulation and that cost more of the budget that using available parts. I agree, but could be wrong since the picture are of such low quality.. There is a lone lamb in LKC so that would make sense to include there if they planned to include two adults here I wonder which horse they would include, the new white one would be better than those in the Castle and I really like the new foal so a re-colour of that would be great, however it was not in the prelim so small chances for that..
  23. Roebuck
    It is a good point, like I have said before if the LKC came out now with all the prints and parts they brought with them in circulation the set would have rather different details. However some must be first and the medieval square could benefit a lot from this, not only from LKC, but all the animals that are available now. They can bring back the goat and maybe a goat kid, if not CMF help them with that, LKC got help from 2 CMF figs after all. The rest of the animals are already on the marked free for the taking to use them as they are or maybe give a few of them a re-color Should leave plenty of budget for prints on figs and maybe some shield and a new barding for forestmen or raven knights
  24. Roebuck
    As far as I know it is that for the hole world. Poland and USA are shipping out bestseller parts..
  25. Roebuck
    Standard are from Denmark! They where most likely it stock, but lot of hungry wolves now 🤑 So hopefully we get several re-stocks soon since they will stay longer in stock every time as more people gets their orders in..
