I can get past the inaccurate shaping of the lower towers, but what's with the tan? That just looks horrible. And combined with the thick, stubby center tower, it's borderline unrecognizable.

The designer was probably thinking the tan would add visual interest to what is otherwise a sea of white and grey (with some blue and gold on top). You know, like how old TIE Fighter sets used to have blue on them.

Not defending the color choice, just speculating.

>tfw may get Hot Dog Van, Gotham Cycle Chase and a small Hero Factory-set today

But they're most likely here tomorrow, but I can dream, right?

I admit I mostly got the hot dog for memes. Can't help it. Literally only reason I want the cycle chase is for Harley. May be a little stupid to buy a set for one fig alone, but for 17€ I couldn't say no. It has some neat parts, even if the builds are garbage. HF set was like less than 4€, and small CCBS bones are pretty usable parts.

It's not any of the real castles.

Firstly, it's not an OC castle. Secondly, the point is to represent the Disney Parks as a whole.

>>5787732
Maybe it's because you can just drop the castle next to any City setup and suddenly you have Disneyland?

It's a pretty good way to tie it together without having to go in too deep, you can use all your disneyfigs and sets together, because it's the IRL Disney, not the animated one.

Also this means all your Disney CMFs are professional cosplayers.

>Also this means all your Disney CMFs are professional cosplayers.
The announcement of this set gave me a new perspective on the Mouse and Duck figs. I thought it would have been better to make new hat and neck pieces to add onto the classic minifig head, because the new molds looked too big and bulbous.

But now I see that they're simply wearing Disneyland costumes.

(Also now I think that the old 2010 Buzz would work better in a Disneyland display.)

>>5787463
So if I buy one of those and put it away for 5 years, am I pretty much guaranteed to make some money?

Gaston minifig when?

I stopped collection LEGO a long time ago but I'd collect Disney park sets in a heartbeat. I live in Orlando but don't find myself going to the parks often, It'd be so great to have a little park diorama going on. If they made the rides with some nice action features or something that'd be really neat. my dream set would be a big Haunted Mansion with the stretching room and Graveyard included along with some of the memorable parts of the ride like maybe the brides attic. It's too good of an concept to pass up and I really do hope they don't just stop at the castle.

>>5787777
>So if I buy one of those and put it away for 5 years, am I pretty much guaranteed to make some money?
No anon, this specific set is the one exception to that rule.

I only got into Star Trek recently (not because of the new movies though), but it would be cool to see some sets. Futuron is probably the closest with the shirt colors, and the Exploriens ship or Deep Freeze Defender are the best Enterprise proxies.

>>5787542

>>5787959
That'd be kickass. The elevator gimmick would be really simple and sweet and would work well with a power-functions motor. Maybe the windows could open and close as the elevator rides up the shaft to imitate the ride. I've always wanted themepark sets based around actual rides and I want them even more now that the castle is a thing.

I ordered from Russia a while back.

It took almost a week to actually leave Russia (I live in Europe), but it arrived just fine and I even got a tracking. It had to go from other side of Russia to Moscow, so I can sorta understand.

Hiya /lg/, here's a quandary for you.

I have some Lego (well, a lot), but I've also recently had to deal with a smalltime bedbug problem. They've been confined to one room, unfortunately with the lego in it, and I've used diatomaceous earth to cordon it off, though the room is still usable. I'm having an exterminator over, and an inspector did come by and say that plastic, leather, etc. should be fine and the bugs wouldn't touch it, but is there anything else I should know to avoid getting bugs in my bricks?

I've got it in sealed plastic tubs and the like now, some of it was in cardboard on top of plastic containers beforehand.

Good haul, anon! Try building the three basic builds first. Having two of each means you can have two models built ar the same time for comparison, or you could use the other copy's pieces to upgrade your favorite build.

Been playing around in LDD the past few days and considering making an order off Bricklink to build this thing I reverse engineered and modified from some pics I've been mulling over for a while.

Huh, that's a good idea! I've already build up one of the red creature sets into a dragon. Gonna maybe build the other two with the second set, then maybe use them to make a bigger dragon somehow.

All we know is that the idea was approved and then the Dimensions figures showed up.

There's no saying that it will actually be brick-built; it could go either way at this point. The fact that they've already molded all of the figures would lead me to believe that it's a minifig scale set, but who knows with Lego.

It'd be very unusual for LEGO to completely change an Ideas submission like that. At the very most I could see them doing a mix of minifigs and brick built.

Ugh. I was excited when Castle was making a comeback in 2007 and got 7094, and was kind of disappointed. It wasn't really a castle, but a square walled court. Then those two versions were just too similar. Which, really, have been how they've done castles from the beginning.

I dunno, those never felt like real castles. I always liked the Forestmen sets, and the Dragon Knight castles, though. My favorite castle has to be the Vampyre's Castle from the Monster Hunter's line. I always wanted a Lego Castlevania and that set was pretty much that.

Even the Nexo Knight Fortrex is another 'walled square', which despite it otherwise looking great, is a big reason why I've held off from getting it.

The baseplates, though.

Baseplates can be challenging work with, but they still provide a better base than a square wall.

It is indeed the current "Castle" theme. If it turns out to be relatively unpopular, expect to see it gone by 2019. Lego usually keeps their bigger-budget themes up for three years (like Chima), unless it proves too popular/profitable (like Ninjago).

It's cool if you don't like it, everyone has an opinion.

>>5789476
There was a regular castle theme just two years ago, and from what I know, it didn't sell well.

>>5789492
Is Ninjago only truly popular inhouse-theme Lego has now? Chima is dead, Bonkle is running of fumes, Nexo is relatively popular but nowhere near as big as Ninjago, and no one remembers the rest.

>>5789514
Friends seems to be doing fine. Elves too. And it isn't like mixels, creator, and city don't make money.

>>5789514
As always, Lego relies on the popularity of their licensing deals in order to keep putting out their original stuff.

It should be noted though that Friends is pretty popular, and Elves is chugging along at a stable rate.

>>5789518
>>5789520
I totally forgot Friends and Elves.

But to be fair, they hardly compete for the same audience.

>>5787463
So is it worth the asking price? Or should I wait until it's significantly cheaper on Bricklink?

>>5789524
>wait until it's significantly cheaper

If you want it, buy it right away. It looks like good value for the price, but also if you wait for the aftermarket it'll become much too expensive.

Screw castle themes, give us dungeons! Generic class-based heroes against generic dungeon enemies like skeletons, goblins, slimes, all set in trap-filled crypts, dungeons, and various other PnP scenarios. A modular dungeon set would be absolutely amazing.

Just a quick build I made while working on something larger. Loosely based on a piece of Fury Road concept art I saw online recently.

A Wolfpack shirt would be cool. Probably subtle enough of a logo to wear in public too.

>>5789476
Elves, anon.

>>5789560
What I think would be really cool is Castle Greek theme, and then do a City wave of like Italy and Rome where the Greek architecture remains. The big set could be the Colosseum museum.

How about a god old classical four-way?
Greek-based faction based around thinking and "pen is mightier than the sword" etc etc
Rome-based faction with focus on raw military might, siege weapons included.
Norse-based faction with boats, naval warfare ahoy.
Arabic-based faction centered around trading, bazaars, markets and whatnot.
Guess it would sell like shit, as the other anon said.

I would love the whole crew of Black Cauldron, anon, but Disney thinks the princess is always protagonist, not the others.

>round trading, bazaars, markets and whatnot.
and harems anon, harems full of waifus

my local wally world had some stuff on sale/clearance (presumably to make room for the new stuff, like the volcano City line which is currently resigned to a cardboard endcap), so i picked up some city stuff i missed, the swamp police station thing, jetplane tractor trailer and motherfucking space shuttle

there was also some star wars and minecraft stuff on clearance (one SW set at like 60% off) but it was all just grey flats and 2x2 bricks so who gives a shit about that stuff

what do i build first?

>>5790068
They're great anon. See it as a way to display minifigs properly and give relative scale to minifig scale builds.

>>5789986
Honestly I do like elves, but I don't consider it a "castle" theme.

Heroica was badass! I recently started to replicate its microfigs in minifig form as a tribute to this great concept

>>5790068

Looks spot-on, anon!

I've been building up a small microfig collection to use in various Lego Quest games. They're pretty cute. I already had one from the Creationary game, but they're pretty cheap on BL and I like their simple designs.

The mummies are so cute the way they were. If you need them to "hold" something, just set it up next to them in a 1x1 round plate with whole, a clip, or that thing from elves that they use as an ink well.

Sometimes you get a card about the Rapture.

Sometimes a seller makes up for switching a color you didn't even care about by sending you two free trees and a damn frying pan.

>>5790404
Aren't those bigger trees rare as fuck?

Odd move of the seller though.

>>5790434
not windtree anon but i think i have some from when i was a kid, early-mid 90s. are they really "rare"?

>>5790404
the Rapture card was pretty funny anyway

we're PROBABLY not gonna have it, and if we do it's going to be VERY few
Since it's a retailer exclusive, you're only gonna see that in Toys R Us, and MAYBE Target. Not sure on the full details yet.

>>5790452
VW for VIPs


sidenote: adding this to the ever growing "Ghostbusters toys not selling" meme

this is out backroom. we have 2 of the old sets that have been out for 2 years, and are overstocked on the new one and it's been out for 13 days.

They're not really "rare", but the big ones aren't in very many sets anymore and usually sell for $1-2 on BL, so it was an extremely unexpected surprise.

>>5790472
very much agreed

Angry birds didn't sell at ALL until the movie came out, and when it finally did, it sold alright for a while.

depends what you mean by "dumb"
this is gonna sound like a corporate answer but it's really true. people have different tastes. LOTS of duplo sell, lots of juniors sell. I'd never buy any of those, but to younger kids that's really cool.

Our most sold theme is Friends, btw. City is dead last.

The hair by itself is only three bucks.

>>5790501
I heard City sells amazingly in foreign markets but mediocre in US markets. For Star Wars it's vice versa.

Also, why so much Marvel sets in the back? Do they not sell well?

actually marvel usually sells pretty well.
I THINK most of the sets in that pic that are stacked are the age of ultron stuff, so it's been out for a while.
It might have also been shipment day, can't remember exactly.
The only things that sell hilariously badly is the Classic Batman set and the Ninjago temple.

we currently have a bonus 500 VIP points promo when you buy the ninjago temple because NOBODY WANTS IT. aimed to kids, but far too expensive for kids, and adults don't watch the show.

the batman set doesn't sell because it's kinda a mess for people ho have the money to spend on a gimmick set, I'm guessing.

>>5790541
Id buy it and sell the figures in a lot but I don't trust that I'll be able to get fifty bucks back because those stupid fucking ninjas are in every set

>>5790541
>actually want the temple and VIP bonus
>birthday's on friday, kinda feel like a douche buying myself stuff days before.

>>5790541
I'd buy it in a heartbeat if it was $120 or so, but it's fucking $300 dollars and I'm not rich.

>>5790566

In the US?

Its only a $200 set in the US.
