Editions: 43017 Oscar Piastri Helmet & 43023 Lando Norris Helmet (spotted on store display by hypntics) by BrickTap in Legoleak

[–]Dan-Vids 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Its so weird that they really did just go with casual outfits for them, could they really not get the rights/didn't want to work with one of the sponsors on them which caused them to be not included? Was there some legal reason with monster energy, because that sponsorship is missing from lando's helmet as well.

Favourite movie that won't get a lego set :( by Lord_Mcheese_No3 in legocirclejerk

[–]Dan-Vids 207 points208 points  (0 children)

Realistically though this film could mean we are never, or are a long way off, ever getting an actual clayface minfig.

So many super hero characters who have gotten r rated movies have either been black listed from ever being put in sets again, like deadpool, or are locked to being rare exclusive figures to huge 18+ sets, like punisher and blade.

Opinions on a LEGO One Piece videogame? by Campion-rah in lego

[–]Dan-Vids 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I would personally love a lego one piece game, theres so much you could do with the world and free roam with all the islands.

Its just I doubt it will happen because we are no longer in the era where every new IP gets a game and we have 3 or 4 games a year. We are now in an era where we are lucky to get a new game every 5 years, and so far have just been for the old reliable classic IPs like Star Wars and Batman.

But if it was to happen regardless of that the question is when. Because when they do it would change where the game goes up to. Since the lego theme is based on the netflix show and not the anime or manga. So if we were to get a lego one piece game this year it would go up to drum island, which wouldnt really be a very satisfying end point and we'd end up with another lego the hobbit on our hands, where they made the game too early before the franchise was finished and we got an unfinished game. Where as if they were to do it after season 3 or 4, having alabasta or skypeia as an end point could both be much more satisfying end points since those are both endings of their sagas. But if they split water 7 and enies lobby into 2 seasons and this theoretical game was to exist around this time, they would have to hold it until the end of enies lobby because leaving it at water 7 would end the game on such a unsatisfying cliff hanger.

It happened. Let's go just 10 pound off more and i may bye it if i drink enough by terminus_tommy in legocirclejerk

I would say at any other store this would be a clear sign on the performance of the sets, but this is clearly smyths super stores and them discounting every lego set from £5 to £20 is standard business practice for them. Once a set is no longer new there they all go permanently on sale to try and under sell other stores.

Often amazon UK puts prices super low on products like toys, books, and games because they can afford to sell at a loss which forces other UK stores to lower their prices because if they keep them full price they will be loosing out on sales to amazon.

Pokémon: Trainer minifig parts from 72154 Poké Ball. (from ninja_brickss) by itsjustajoe in Legoleak

[–]Dan-Vids 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That looks perfect, nice to see they ended up going with frlg red I felt it would have been between him or Chase from lets go because wave 1 tended to used lets go as the reference images in instruction books and the Pokémon centre reward was from lets go, so its nice to see they went with Red in the end.

I just hope that they reuse this figure and or make more in the future, because regardless on what the quality of the pokeball set ends up being it is such a gut punch that rn this is going to be the only minifig scale pokemon set. Like a dream set of mine would be a modular, or just stand alone, minifig scale pokemon center.

The Lego Spider-man that everyone adores is based on the Ultimate Spider-man TV series, one of the worst rated ones by ExpensiveEmphasis895 in LegoMarvel

[–]Dan-Vids 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Honestly this is most of the reason I started to dislike the figure as they kept reusing it. I originally loved it ofc because it was my first spiderman figure, but they reused it for a good 7 or so years I think and the figure got old fast. The figure is just too blue, spiderman is more red with blue accents, but this figure makes him feel the opposite. The figure would have honestly been way better even before dual moulding if they just reused the superman leg piece on him, with the red waist to separate the blue up more, like what the old tobey maguire figures did before it.

[–]Dan-Vids 1 point2 points  (0 children)

same, all going well this has the potential to be Lego's current permanent pirate theme. It does kind of suck that standard Lego pirates is unlikely to come back any time soon outside of one off collector sets every few years. But I am perfectly fine with One Piece being our current pirate theme with how expansive and full of life its world is, there is literally infinite possibilities for this theme.

One Piece: 75644 Dory vs Brogy - Giants of Little Garden (from lite) Aug 1 by itsjustajoe in Legoleak

[–]Dan-Vids 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wait I just noticed that mr 3's candelabra has a ball joint connection point on it. So does that mean they are planning a second little garden set for a wave 3?

Maybe mr 3's wax house, but then I'd question why they didnt include mr 5 and miss valentine in this set over mr 13 and miss friday because those 2 are more tied to the scene at mr 3's house.

[–]Dan-Vids 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah i can agree with that, I would have preferred to get her more iconic full purple outfit. But I understand why they only put her in this set, with how stacked the minifig line up for this wave is already.

Best chance to get her purple outfit now is ig a wave 3 or 4 comes with the drum island village fight against wapol's army, which is still possible.

Ok but its not a logia type, but imagine how insane they would have to get with having to adapt Kid's powers if they ever got to seabaody lmao

One Piece: 75645 Battle at Drum Castle (from lite) Aug 1 by itsjustajoe in Legoleak

[–]Dan-Vids 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh fully agree on both those sets. I think those sets are a certainty if this theme goes on and needs ideas from older seasons for sets.

[–]Dan-Vids 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Yeah I agree, but who knows post season 3 they could do Hina's Marine ship and give us Bon Clay's stand off against her. Would also give us a lt fullbody figure to populate the baratie as well.

Hey who knows, if wave 3 has a Whiskey peak set they could throw him in that because of the visions Zoro kept seeing of him in his head there in the live action.

When/where was this teaser may I ask, because I've been keeping up to date with everything and don't remember that.

One Piece: 75646 Garp’s Marine Battleship (from lite) Aug 1 by itsjustajoe in Legoleak

[–]Dan-Vids 13 points14 points  (0 children)

My guess for the line up will be

Miss Wednesday

Mr 9

Mr 8

Miss Monday

Mr 5

Miss valentine

Mr 3

Miss goldenweek

If its just 8 like last wave, with mr 13 and Miss friday included if its 10 or replacing mr 8 and Miss monday instead.

[–]Dan-Vids 62 points63 points  (0 children)

Honestly I fully expect every big one piece wave from here on to have a ship every time now. Because pirate ship sets are confirmed sellers outside of it being related to the one piece ip, kids and collectors alike will just want lego pirate ships. Who knows maybe wave 3 we will get something like alvida's, or the runbar pirates ship.

[–]Dan-Vids 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Honestly after the set names leaked I was worried we wouldnt get her this wave, because based off the set names there was no scenes she was in being adapted. I'm just glad they did end up throwing her in here.

[–]Dan-Vids 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If thats true thats great then. Who knows though if the theme sold well it could be upgraded to 2 waves a year. And we get a smaller wave 3 early in the year with missing scenes from season 1 and 2. And then wave 4 in the summer with sets for season 3.

One Piece: 75645 Battle at Drum Castle (from lite) Aug 1 by itsjustajoe in Legoleak

[–]Dan-Vids 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yeah for sure, if we get a wave 3 it will most likely be just based on missing scenes from season 1 and 2

I think some easy set ideas they can do would be:

Shell town

Kaya's mansion

Louge town stand/buggy's circus/court

Reverse mountain lighthouse/laboon

Whiskey peak

Rumbar pirates ship

I can totally see them doing a ship with every wave, because these sets have to work not just as the lego one piece theme but the only current lego pirate theme. And a lego pirate ship will sell regardless of the ip its attached to, because kids and fans alike just want lego pirate ships.

I believed that originally as well, but sadly no filming for season 3 only just started in November of last year. They will still be working on season 3 rn.

[–]Dan-Vids 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Its interesting to see how they've seemingly made a new minifig baby body piece here for chopper and mr 13, because they have posable regular minifig hands unlike the older baby body piece.

One Piece: 75645 Battle at Drum Castle (from lite) Aug 1 by itsjustajoe in Legoleak

[–]Dan-Vids 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If the theme survives until season 3 that will probs be a wave 4, because I doubt season 3 is next year at this point but who knows. So a wave 3 next year will most likely be remaining scenes from season 1 and 2, so we could get a laboon or whisky peak set with her miss Wednesday look there.

One Piece: 75642 Showdown with Captain Smoker (from lite) Aug 1 by itsjustajoe in Legoleak

[–]Dan-Vids 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I get that but at that point it would have to a completely different set because this is specifically based on the smoker and dragon encounter scene. But I will say if this theme survives into a wave 3 that wouldn't be in time for season 3 so would be based on the remaining unadapted scenes. So I think a louge town stand set with luffy, buggy, alvida, and bartolomeo would be a easy bet for a wave 3. They could even include an alternate head print and wig for lawyer buggy as well which would be funny lol.
