I am legit thinking of saving up to buy this set but a part of me thinks all those new molded pokemon will show up in far cheaper sets in 2027. It has to, r-right?

The rumour is we get kanto trio, eevee and pikachu molds and 4-5 minifigs.

You are less likeable, more annoying, and more spammy than any spammer you incessantly whine about. I checked in on the last thread after a day out, and by the end of it, fully 1/4 of the posts were just “pedo” or “kill yourself.” There was a stretch of time (maybe just ten or twelve hours) you were absent, and the thread was downright pleasant: ordinary conversation, plenty of criticism, few vivid scenes of gore and self-destruction — the thing you’d expect of conversation about children’s building blocks. So I really must insist you remove yourself in the manner of one of your nasty fantasies, for all our sakes, including yours.

I do too but this was the closet we got and the studios aspect of it is so miniscule it may as well not exist. Genuinely curious about the development of this theme, it feels like lego maybe wanted to do a proper horror theme but decided to just connect it to studios since it already existed. With only four sets and the flagship set being only $50 it feels like lego didn't have confidence in the theme.

Its wild to me that you can see the transitional price spikes happening in real-time with Lego, especially with Marvel and Star Wars sets.

Like, the Avengers Tower is only $100 more than this, but has 2000 more pieces and 31 minifigures. The Daily Bugle costs $50 less and has almost 800 more pieces and has 25 minifigures.

This is why no one buys their bullshit claims when the put out a $400 or $500 set and stop at 6-8 minifigures and tell us "we have to stop SOMEwhere!"

Them asking this for a non minifig scale set is absurd. It made me think of the UCS Death Star II which was $270 at release in 2005, or $451.78 adjusted for inflation, and has about 450 more pieces but no minifigs. Guess they just always have been this bad.

>New torso leak from an upcoming Icons Star Trek TOS set! I think it will be the bridge instead of enterprise.
it depends on how "well" the -D sold. if it sold well enough, I'd expect it to be another $400. they'll find some way to inflate muh-piece-count even if it's just-the-bridge (midi-scale Enterprise behind it for display purposes?)

If I had to guess (based on Lego greed tactics) I'm guessing no less than $200. I triple-dog-dare Lego to make a 7-minifig bridge for $80. it's for the 65th anniversary and they need it to be accessible to all the normies (?)

>>11741570
the old ucs sets were supposed to be more like models than expensive collectors items
them including minifigs didn't happen until lego realized that sw fags will eat up any shit they pump out as long as it includes an exclusive minifig

>>11741573
Impossible, rumour has it it's a cheaper TOS bridge set. And its coming in 2026. How the next generation set sold will factor into a 2027 trek release but a 2026 one? No, because the design is already set in stone and in production. Also it make sense for it to be TOS bridge because its different from the enterprise from TNG and cheaper and this year is the 60th anniversary, you need to take these when accounting for all of that.

I put pieces that very obviously belong with eachother together. I don't disassemble some of these very specific half-builds that could very easily indicate that he owned certain sets and instead throw them in the "proof of existence" container which will get sorted out later.
>What's the damage?
He has plenty of shit but virtually everything is 90% disassembled and scattered across multiple piles. Also some of these stickered parts (particularly coast watch stuff) are so old the stickers are half-crumbling and if you touch them in the wrong way shit gets stuck all over your fingertips. A lot of it is also caked in dust because he left it in open boxes without lids or anything. Then there's a good chunk of minifigs, specifically battle droids for some reason, that the dog at the time gave a good chewing. The rest of his minifigs seem to be in decent condition.

I don't really get coloring your legos. But it seems like there's two big groups when it comes to custom lego stuff.

I got back into the hobby about a year ago, take the vintage non IP pill. I only buy stuff from 02 at the absolute latest, just like the blocky aesthetic and more appealing color palletes of older lego. I grew up with stuff from around 2007 to 2011 but honestly I find the colors used in sets from that era overly saturated and kinda junior feeling so I have never been motivated to collect them. Reject overpriced pop culture slop, get action figures if you like IPs, and embrace SOUL.

>>11741818
That is that faggot Matthew Ashton's bricksona.

>>11741826
I dont think you understand the meaning of color saturation

>>11741829
Shut the f up, lol.

>>11741831
all the classic colors(minus tan and the paradisa pastels) are essentially at max saturation

meanwhile in later years there's a lot more desaturated slop like the sandgreens and sandreds and all manner of muted specialized colors.

to say colors from the classic years were better because new ones are overly saturated makes virtually zero sense when it's the exact opposite

>>11741826
yeah mostly have been buying older sets but some new ish are nice, like the sith tie dighter feom 2017, weirdly all new order stuff is very fun, unique and a nice colour change and cheap, picked up a new destroyer for 120$

I'm not >>11741831 , perhaps "saturation" was a poor choice of wording on my part. I'm not really sure how to describe it, the overly bright colors seen in themes from around this time like Mars Mission, Power Miners, and Agents just looks so much less appealing to me as an adult now. Even the more subdued themes like fantasy era castle or space police 3 just don't look quite as nice as their 80s or 90s equivalent.

Man, this kind of hits me as the very first wave of ninjago is when I quit actually, got a few of the smaller sets and kind of just thought "yeah, I really don't see the appeal anymore". I can't say I love the theme but at this point seeing literally any non IP theme that isn't city be relevant is a gpod thing to me. My brother is a normie and collects IP stuff and brickworld is close to us so I went with him and seeing the 910049 Adventure in Transylvania made me want to get one final set, unfortumately this was well past it's preorder phase so every one I found was like $700 which I couldn't justify. Fell down the slippery slope though and now collect 80s and 90s castle and space themes.

>>11741857
Anything with wheels, specifically trucks. Which is funny since I was a Star Wars, Adventure, and Castles kid. He's got a few truck sets and I brick bashed a few trucks for him out of old sets I had.

>>11741850
Funny how there was no space theme that used magenta, wonder how dark green and magenta would look as a pallet

>>11741863
I will always scorn the fact we never got a space theme thst used sand red as a primary color.

>>11741848
I got out of it around 2009 right before Ninjago hit. In 2021 I found my Café Corner, Market Street and Green Grocer again, and thats how I got back into it. I tried collecting from all sorts of themes, then stuck to mainly collecting Monkie Kid since I really liked the style they were going with it. However since around 2024 I've decided to almost exclusively focus on sets I can integrate into my City landscape. Mostly modular buildings and Bricklink Designer Program.

I think the last set I bought was around Rouge One so 2016. Came back after seeing all the clone wars revival sets and having seen my childhood best friend still collected (We hadn‘t hung out in years). Collected a bit, but stopped again shortly thereafter until I got Ahsoka‘s jedi interceptor as a gift recently and then came back full time.

Even started branching out into Ninjago, thought the last set I got was from season 1 so I‘m really unsure where to begin collecting. I never was a big fan of the show but I‘ll give it another go now, after 15 years.

For the first time ever, probably because I never really cared that much where my legos went, I’m having storage problems.

Also the aftermarket, artificial inflation, all that jazz really takes the joy out of this hobby for me. I’m expected to keep my minifigs in carbonite if I don’t want to have what would be considered as damaged goods. It’s easy for the hobby to control you.

is it really that profitable, to buy a few Lego sets, to pay for round trip airfare tickets?

how about you "hire" a local guy to stand in line and ship them? would that be less expensive?

the take-away from this story is that Lego is missing out on some serious CASH. if people are willing to buy airline tickets, Lego should "figure it out" and sell those sets online for massive profits

Doesn't Ninjago have displays of Shintoism?

>>11741983
I guess so. They've been trying to make it more general lately but ninjago was always pretty much a giant mish-mash of different asian cultures that the designers put in because it looked "really cool" and they're right eastern-looking dragons and temples and swords are pretty awesome

>>11741996
I wonder if they ever regret going the ninja angle, them making a blond kid the leader is pretty funny. During the set design process I wonder if the designers have to factor in representing the Japanese aspect. Monkey Kid feels like them going crazy with the Chinese repredentation but that makes sense considering their a regional theme.

Where do you see LEGO go in the next 5-10 years? Surely the black box era will come to an end at some point. To me it feels like LEGO is repeating the same mistakes they did in the 90s. With more and more specialized pieces, colors and products that swey away from the core. Except this time it's working for them. Do you think the Smart Brick will succeed? Or will they pull it in the next 3+ years and reflect on the failure?

>>11742007
Feels like a lot of the pop culture titans are starting to weaken, Disney Star Wars was so disasterous that nothing beside the Mandalorian has had an impact on pop culture and they can only remake stuff from EP1-6 for so long before people get tired, meanwhile MCU shit has become so overly saturated that normies barely keep up unless it's a "big" movie. There's a big budget Harry Potter reboot happening but Rowling is controversal enough that it might seriously fail. Does LotR have any big projects going on?

Crazier piece and alts for pieces and generally very angly and specifically shaped pieces being used for complex detailing and shaping
And its all thanks to speeed chanpions

>>11742018
I mean we probably both agree, that new pieces are exciting, but they should have large usage in sets. Just look at older sets and how they achieved things with less specialized pieces.

>>11742021
I just mean it as in usually we get some really intricate or cool new variant pieces that come from that series and end up bleeding into other themes
The general idea here is that the future for lego is going to be about revamping the way buildings look by going crazy with specific detailing and shaping and thats also paired with this weird need master builders seem have of wanting to use unusual pieces in sets to make it seem creative(for better or for worse)

An IP extinction and rebirth of a few classic and new in house themes hopefully should be the direction

>>11742007
>Surely the black box era will come to an end at some point.
nope. the math heavily favors huge sets. ridiculously.

there's roughly 1000 The Lego Stores
they only need to sell 1 each, $1000 Death Star to make 1 million bucks. there's at least one crazy rich person per The Lego Store, easily.

I think we did the math on the pre-order limits on the $650 Pokemon set and came up with 50+ million.

so basically, Lego will continue making $$$$ sets, until there are no longer any "big" IPs with any sort of fan base where at least 1 or 4 people per The Lego Store would be willing to pay for it.

having said all that doom-n-gloom nonsense, I think the way Zelda backed from $300 down to $140 might indicate Lego is settling down to a lower price spot. I hope that trend continues

>>11742084
Actually ninjago gave us a bit of hope that solidified with nexo knights since both are basically reboots of super old ninja and castle themes
Sure they'll never make another beast of a theme like ninjago probably ever again but I can see them still trying to by making these reimagined versions of old themes that also come with a cartoon or a card/schoolyard toy game along side it

space and star wars co-existed for 14 years before the former stopped, coincidentally right after disney purchased star wars
indiana jones existed for a year and a half in 2008-9, and again briefly a few years back, long after adventures ended
castle co-existed for the entirety of the first two eras of hp, apparently it was canned due to low sales, but the last version of it was very simple and basic

I'm also starting to out-grow (heh) the notion of Lego "perfection" vs "close-enough"

I've used this bit before, so that guy that freaked out last time, plug your ears. the first time Lego made an X-Wing, you HAD to get it, because the one YOU made was garbage compared to the "official" Lego X-Wing! but then Lego keeps re-making it, and after the 12th one, you realize it's okay to make your own, it's just as valid.

minifigs can be the same way. look at Luke originally with just a close-enough hair piece. what's wrong with that? nothing.

>>11742176
star wars as a whole peaked in the yellow era
it had everything you would want, no clone autism, minimal focus on glup shittos, sets were undeniably lego but still looked like star wars
i'll accept that the early fleshie era was also decent, but once lego started making tcw sets it paved the way to the absolute state of lego today

>>11742129
I like that a lot homie! It could go in any medieval setup and not look out of place at all too. Very nicely done!

>>11742064
>there's roughly 1000 The Lego Stores. they only need to sell 1 each, $1000 Death Star to make 1 million bucks.
that is not how profit works, dude
I wouldn't go so far as to disagree with you, since I don't know the numbers myself, but you are completely ignoring the cost of production
even if I am extremely generous and say that it only cost 500$ to make an 1000$ set(an insane profit margin), companies gave away their IP for free, they don't need to pay anything to keeps their machines running, and that lego factory workers don't get paid, that already cuts your number in half
profit is the number you get after deducting those costs, because that is how much you actually made by selling the product(thought to be fair, workers and electric bills shouldn't be as important of a consideration since they are a general cost across the entire company and not the profit of a single IP)
you cannot make those claims when you don't even know how much they're actually profiting off of each set, let alone how much IP holders are taking from that profit
it's obviously still profitable since lego keeps shilling out money for the IPs, but your "1 1000$ set from each store is 1 million dollars" claim is ridiculous

>>11742181

>co-existed
That's certainly one way to look at it. It's obvious that while lego had enough freedom to make in house space themes they needed to be as distinct as possible from Star Wars. Rock Raiders and Life On Mars were consessions but were able to stand on their own, feel like by Mars Mission lego became obsessed with the NASA aesthetic and decided to approach space more from that angle.
>>11742179
I think what really separates the early Star Wars and Harry Potter lines is how heavily they market they still market the concept that sets can and should be taken apart, they were meant to be enjoyed as both stuff from the movie but still lego at heart.

>>11742377
This is exactly why I just do not care about city police anymore.

I'm late to the party but speaking of ninjago and nexo knights I think the next theme they would probably try to bring back into the public with a new coat of paint should be Pirates.
They could have it be a tv show and have multiple special "treasure" things to collect in each set
Then they could create some kind of tie-in game gimmick like spinners but with boats and the idea of upgrading your mini ships with various special lego parts and etc
Then for actual sets we'd have factions forming stuff like these big battle ship sets and ghost ships and mermaids, sea monsters and olden jungle temples full of loot and idk it just feels like an safe nostalgia reboot...

>Since the first Star Trek set was already the exclusive new release for Black Friday on November 28, 2025, we don't expect LEGO to repeat that this year – even though the Enterprise was one of the most successful product launches in the company's history last year. A release sometime in the fall , and therefore before the Christmas shopping season, is much more likely.
So apparently Enterprise was a huge success?

I'm sorry anon but pirates aren't "family-friendly", it will never happen.

>>11742552
>pirates
Nah, for two reasons. Actually 3 reasons:
>new pirates creator set coming this summer
>pirates of the caribbean
>one piece
I also think Lego will take a pause from doing original themes, I expect the next one around 2028.

>>11742423
NTA but those could hold up the mast of a ship.

>>11742556
What if they're all-female pirate crews? Then it won't be implied that they gangrape captives.

>>11742568
Thats what I meant by factions!
There could be one full of ghost pirates and they glow in the dark, one full of pirate mermaids thats all colourful ladies with swores and diamonds then some more monster-ish tribal men for the land-based set pieces
And the main group if pirates is just a few guys

>>11742570
Swords and diamonds*
they can't swear you like mod the smart bricks to do it

Actually I think I just yearn for lego boats.
I like it when lego gets creative and makes these angles and curves and details on the hull

newfag here, just out of curiosity, how old are you autists? I'm 23 and I think even that's way too old to play with plastic toys...

As long as you aren't masturbating while you get it, no one will care. I have learned everyone is too busy with their own shit to care about what NPCs are doing around them. Despite what "alpha male" influencers try to tell you, no one is judging you based on how you take your cellphone out, open a bottle, or sit down.
In my whole life I only judged one guy for buying something. I was working in a Meijer and a guy with a thick mustache and a wavery voice like the NAMBLA characters from South Park came up and asked for a price check on some child's wind-up toy. So unless you are broadcasting pedo or trans vibes actively, no one will care.

So, will Lego make sets based on the show? I mean, the big Hogwarts is pretty close to be completed and Lego pretty much did everything they could from the movies at this point, so maybe they soft reboot the theme? Will they split the show and movie sets? Like 50/50?

>>11742671
*If* the line continues, I guarantee WB will force them to represent stuff exclusively from the new series up to the point that it fails and then they'll lean back on the tried and true.

>>11742671
Probably, it's thought thst this series' aesthetic will not deviate from the movies unless necessary as it would conflict with the current merch and theme parks centered around the series. A lot of the set design will probably just be recycled from prior year's sets but obviously refined.

Does lego use a different material for glow in the dark stuff now? Only modern gitd piece I have is a spider from a monster hunters set and the anti stud at the bottom broke, seems much different from stuff like my classic ghosts and such.

There are 3 colors of GITD, Opaque, Trans as seen with that, and white which is modern GITD aka the one that broke on you, the two classic ones are obviously the most valuable

>>11742675
There is no way the show is a flop, it will be the biggest show ever since game of thrones, the announcement from the Today post got super huge positive reactions from fans and id Tomorrow trailer is good, it will be HUGE.

>>11742710
So were the new sequel trilogy for Star Wars. I don't think it will fail because because of Rowling's politics, ppeple just don't care about HP as a franchise compared to the 2000s.

Bro, hogwarts legacy is the best selling game ever also nobody gives a shit about rowlings views, its just a loud minority.

almost a guarantee
even if it's just one wave at the start, and unless there are epic riots that force the TV series to implode and vanish (highly unlikely) we can expect exclusive Nu-Pot (is there a term yet?) sets going forward.

Lego will basically say "you should already have a white-guy Snape at this point. you don't need another one"

Been getting back into the hobby and one thing that I never really see discussed are brick films, is there even people making any nowadays? I used to love finding any I could in the late 2000s and early 2010s. Glad to se a lot eof stuff has been archived but never see stuff about new ones releasing.

>>11742552
Pirates are unlikely due to there being an active licensed pirate-adjacent theme (One Piece) going right now thougheverbeit

what about cowboys? or are cowboys too problematic nowdays?

>>11743006
There was the Lone Ranger line a few years ago, movie was shit but the sets were top tier to my understanding. But yeah, unless it had a strong IP tied to it western as a genre is too problematic in terms of its historical significance. Honestly kind of surprised lego ever did it even, made their first realistic gun molds for it.

>>11743009

>There was the Lone Ranger line a few years ago,
at the time, Pirates of the Caribbean was hitting huge, and Slopney was hoping that The Lone Ranger was going to be the Wild West version of it. They even had Johnny Depp on board and it had a lot of the same style and (attempt at) swagger. it's a shame it fizzled and never got sequels and all that. Lego would have continued to make sets

been a while since I've seen it, I wonder how well it holds up? I remember it was meh-alright

>>11743077
>They even had Johnny Depp
Yet playing the indian Tonto. That kind of casting wouldn't even fly in the 90s. At best they diverted their white guilt into making him the brains behind the Ranger, who was completely incompetent. He was a complete idiot that didn't even get Hey Ho Silver right. Like not even as comic relief seriously what a terrible lead.
Never noticed that they aimed towards a feeling similar to PotC, they really missed the mark.

>>11743059
>sorting by color instead of part type

>>11743038
This isn't even a modern thing, westerns as a genre came under scrutiny from younger generations in the 70s who criticized them as romanticising manifest destiny and the confiscation of the territorial rights of Native American land. Genre exists in a weird inbetween in that it's easily iconic but considered problematic.

Cautiously optimistic about the TOS bridge but I'm concerned about the sticker situation. Could be Krusty Burger level disastrous.

>reminded that the Scooby Doo line existed
>"Huh, I wonder how much getting the mystery machine and gang would be"
>go on bricklink
>mystery machine goes starts at $80 incomplete
>velma starts at $60
What the fuck happened with this line? Did they really feel it necessary to try to gouge people into getting the pricier sets just to get the girls? Feels so mishandled, a mystery machine with the full gang probably would have sold better then every set in the theme combined. The location builds are nice admittedly but undermined by the god awful vehicles that have no reason to exist. Obviously it wasn't going to do star wars or marvel numbers but did it fail that hard that it resulted in a lower production run or shelf life?

>What the fuck happened with this line?
they were simply trying to sell "all the sets" and spreading out the gang was the way to do it.

they ironically thought the girl characters were less-desirable, so that's why they put them in the more-expensive sets. little boys could get Fred and Shaggy in the Van set, and Scooby was also in a polybag!

if Lego did Scooby-Doo sets now, I bet Scooby himself would be locked into a $140 set. your only option to get the title character (that's sarcasm joke, but probably true)
