PKMN Trainer Red posted:Holy poo poo, they actually put 15 minifigs in a licensed set for $120. Between this and the Bad Batch set, did someone at Lego get a concussion or something and wake up different? I think that without the 15 minfigs people would focus on how bland the set itself is. e: That said, there's not a ton they could've done with it and the brick-built mini Homer Simpson is charming.

Prophet of Nixon posted:I had no idea these existed, ... and I kind of like that bizarre pirate ship. I don't even remember there being a movie. There were two Angry Birds movies, I believe these were for the second? Anyway, I'm glad my knowledge of every licensing decision Lego has made can be useful somewhere.

MarxCarl posted:Lego had the license for the first Angry Birds movie. A company called Edukie had the license for Angry Birds 2 - https://angrybirds.fandom.com/wiki/Edukie Good to know, I'm happy the manufacturer of "Cool Girls Blocks" is scoring some wins.

remember when you're building the tallneck to leave this single piece floating by your finished model

Finished building the Galaxy Explorer yesterday and it's a fantastic set, it uses a lot of modern techniques to create the chunky, angular set it was inspired by. Highly recommend it, looks like it's still on sale at Walmart for $75.

I read an interview with a Lego designer recently where they said that Lego is producing sets up to five years in advance, all these expensive sets and the sheer quantity of them that they're now releasing makes sense to me if you think they took their mid-2020 projections and extrapolated from there.

Crazy Pigeon posted:Box chat is funny because as I prepare to move across the country and downsize houses, I literally just flattened and threw away every Lego box I've ever hoarded (~200). The original plan was keep some to frame but I never got around to it and ended up saving everything in the basement! So if anyone wants them, I'll let you know what dumpster to go diving in! Ha, I did this when I moved and it was incredibly liberating to just toss a huge stack of boxes into the recycling bin. I'm not going to tell anyone what to do with their boxes but I saw no value in keeping mine.

It's ridiculous to think that the yellow skin tone could ever be used a stand in for white. Ridiculous!

Carbohydrates posted:So, honest feedback since I want to make this thing as good as it can possibly be: what do you think? The parking lot is boring, it reminds me of the streets in front of modular buildings but without the mini-builds. If I had to reduce the piece count, it'd be the first thing to go.

Diversified my Lego portfolio today with an investment in the new modular. I expect my holdings to increase at a decreased rate this year due to market changes so I plan to pursue a more selective strategy.

I don't see a link to obi_ant's SA-MART Lego sale posted in here yet; these are some great prices and I've bought from them before with no issues. Someone needs to grab that Unexpected Journey, it's a really fun set.
