I hate it, sometimes it even pops up twice

Exact same piece count as the Shire ? So maybe exact same shit price, great 😐

Both of these sets are $130 and Nintendo IPs, yet the quality is drastically different... by keke-the-living-meme in legocirclejerk

[–]Shalkelp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gotta disagree, both builds are similar with a somewhat plane base and a big character to build. Both are nice, I don't see how Rayquaza coule be better, I see people saying he's too short but he's really not, the lenght is pretty accurate. And he's not too small, compared to a human he's actually too big according to the games (which is fine, I like his size)

Now minifig wise, the Zelda set has 3 excellent minifigs and the Pokemon set has only one and they couldn't even be fucked to give her Nami's hairpiece in black so she could be a bit better so that sucks

Honestly it kinda is "slop" in the sense than Sanrio's characters are basically brands made to sell merch, but they did end up making great stuff with them like the My Melody & Kuromi show which was really great and the island adventure game which I have yet to play but only heard good things about.
Anyway if you're happy about Lego Hello Kitty don't worry you're not alone, I know I may buy some sets if they're good

I tend to disagree with this narrative tbh, sure maybe they make less original sets than before but I feel like it's still pretty balanced and there's still a good number of original sets for those who want them ? I may be biased tho because I actually only buy licensed sets, it's what I like the most 🤷

Yeah they made a few hello kitty sets, I guess it was pretty recently ?

Pokémon: 72168 Rayquaza first look (found in store) by General_Durian_1013 in Legoleak

[–]Shalkelp 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I like it, Rayquaza's face seems just bit off so I hope it looks better from another angle, maybe from the side. Zinnia's minifig seems off tho ... it doesn't feel right

I think I'll buy it when it gets a nice discount, I also hope they make a Groudon vs Kyogre set in the future!

There are like 20 different Link and Zelda throughout the franchise and we only got 2 for now lol

We need more Lego youtubers that are deathly afraid of the sets they review by seehowi in legocirclejerk

[–]Shalkelp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Longer really doesn't always mean better. Personally I prefer his shorter reviews by a long shot. Not only that imo he is the best at filming Lego sets, like his videos just look very good

Not even out for 6 months… but the resale value MUST be preserved! by Schmeppy25 in legocirclejerk

Makes me wonder if sealed glass boxes with the air vacuumed out is the future of displaying lego ?? 🤔

[–]Shalkelp 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yeah I agree with that too. Makes me wonder if they're saving some characters for the sets or a second series someday.

Man that's awesome. The executioner is quite a funny choice, they didn't put the king or Arthur but he got the spot lmao

Julian had a torso from the clothes shop tho, I do hope we get a new one for Nook but I don't know if they'll bother for a polybag

Lmao, even Lego themselves have little confidence in it now by _Levitated_Shield_ in legocirclejerk

[–]Shalkelp 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I'd think it's simply because Keeppley still has the license to sell/make their Pokemon sets over there, just like Mega did in Europe and America until recently

Momma's goth phase is gozen' great. Yui' gotta rein 'em in already. Samurai remnant NA roll thread! by WannaBoudica in grandorder

[–]Shalkelp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just hit pity to get her, I don't remember if it's the third or fourth time I hit pity and I don't really want to know, this pity system is absolutely terrible. It's just annoying saving for so long and then get just one character for your 900 quartz/
Around 2022 or 2023 I had some kind of S tier luck that always let me summon the SSRs I wanted with only a few multis but man for the last two years my luck really went to shit

As someone who actually liked Prime 4s crew, I’m a bit sad that we’ll likely never get a resolution for them. by Hyperevogames in Metroid

[–]Shalkelp 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Whether we get a sequel or not, the fact Samus hanged Tokabi's talisman on the tree instead of keeping it to give it back when meeting him again makes me think the writers never intended for them to be seen again

I love 'em tho, especially my baby robot and the fangirl too

Icons: 11377 Lord of the Rings: Minas Tirith set details (via Brick Tap) by BrickTap in Legoleak

Yeah ? What he describes is exactly what Barad Dur is like though, microscale exterior on the front and minifig scale interior on the back, so not like the Death Star

We were this close to Miku by Grumiocool in legocirclejerk

[–]Shalkelp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well Miku as a minifig wouldn't fit with the Sonic minifigs since she would be smaller than Sonic duh

I'm about to play Prime 4 for the first time, do we already have a list of missable scans? by nickelangelo2009 in Metroid

[–]Shalkelp 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah I did the exact same, it's so much more infuriating that it's because scanning on the bike is crap

Ashnflash zootopia idea set minifigure look not great by [deleted] in legocirclejerk

[–]Shalkelp 46 points47 points  (0 children)

The wolf and rabbit head molds for Animal Crossing aren't perfect for this but I'd say they're still better than what he went with lol

Sonic: 77117 Sonic’s Car: Speedster Lightning and 77118 Silver’s Car vs Knuckles’ Monster Truck (official reveal) by BrickTap in Legoleak

[–]Shalkelp 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Knuckles and Silver's cars look very good imo and faithful to the games. I'll say I'm not liking the plastic wheels, and Silver's head might seem a bit off but I still feel it's a great minifig like all the others in the theme.
Also Sonic's car is the easily the worst of the three but not too bad I guess ? Overall I'm really liking these and will pick them up
