    ^I didn't immediately recognize that the Music Box set was a different picture. The scale seemed enormous compared to the other sets as I scrolled down the page!

    Also saw this Yoda Set!

    I am not sure how I missed this one. ^ This is released tomorrow?

    Does the 2020 line of SW stuff officially launch tomorrow with Triple Force Friday? I was going to delay a purchase, but if Yoda is indeed coming out, I guess I should pull the trigger for the points now, plus the GWP.

    Looks like there is an Olaf promo set next week...


    Free with $50 of Frozen 2 purchases per The Brick Fan... Looks like it would be a nice addition to my winter village (I don’t mind mixing the traditional minifig scenes with the fantasy elements like #10267 )

    aww I was hoping this would be polybagged and end up at walmart or something as a cheap way to get the new olaf eventually, oh well

    Bit late to the party, but I would have loved to own that jewellery case as a little girl!



    Well, I'm never going to be a proper adult anyway so on the wishlist it goes :)

    The Yoda is pretty cool too, I like how it's actually bricks not just snot.

    I definitely want that Olaf Promo. I may have to do some Christmas shopping early to ensure I get it!

    I do too but as someone said you the front page I don't want any of the frozen sets. Would be happy spend £50 on full price Lego but only if it's something on my wanted list. The hidden side set like this was free with a £50 spend on anything which made it a lot easier.

    What does it matter if you get it or not then? If you've no interest in Frozen sets, why does this one interest you? Is it just the hoarder siren song of "free stuff" that has you fretting? I mean... I don't understand your frustration. It's just another Frozen set, from the line you want nothing to do with.

    Same here, I might have spent £50 to get that promo if it was a spend on anything. But not on overpriced Frozen 2 sets. Surely those prices are going to have to tumble significantly for those sets to sell. I also imagine that the new Olaf will appear in loads more sets. Although they will probably all be overpriced. I'll probably end up waiting for a polybag.

    ^^ to address why one would want the Olaf promo if you have no interest in frozen 2 sets: I love Lego disney stuff but I don't care about minidolls. I love the molded animal side characters that aren't minidolls, but the sets aren't worth buying for just one piece, so I tend to just bricklink the new characters when convenient. I want this new olaf mold, and had the promo been with $50 of anything, I would have spent to get one, but if I have to buy another frozen set just to get it, I'll wait and BL the new olaf too.

    I get the smaller Disney sets for my wife but she is not into Lego enough to get her the big ones. But even if I didn't I would want the new Olaf to go with the old one that came in the polybag. If that's ok with you that is!

    Maybe it's the innate old school Canadian in me, but it just seems like such an odd thing to gripe about. You're clearly not a massive Frozen fan, or these sets would be right up your alley and this would be the fun extra to complete your collection (as it's intended to be). So, as it stands, it's just another set that you can ignore. /shrug.

    I've got to make a run to the Lego store this week. If they'll give it to me with the jewelry box set (49.99$ CAD, so I'm thinking they might), I can send it your way if you're willing to pay the post costs?

    ^ go for it @panchox1 be cheaper than than sending it all this way. Thanks for the offer anyway @Klinton but will just trade with a local. When I say I get my wife the smaller sets what I should have said is she has every sub £15 set in the line lol

    to add to that discussion, I might have been interested in the sets for my daughter, but only at a reasonable price. I imagine they will come down significantly if they are to sell. Maybe not this Christmas, where some people will pay full RRP to satisfy little Tammy, but they are going to be on the shelves for a while and I don't think that many people will pay those awful RRPs. There will also be a lot of other Frozen 2 merchandise on the shelves that it will be competing with. It will be interesting to see if other brands' merchandise is priced realistically or not.
  • jnscoelhojnscoelho Member Posts: 696
    I'll be getting that Elves-looking #41164 but not at full RRP, I'll certainly wait for some good discounts.
  • CCCCCC Member Posts: 20,526
    It looks like 43174-7 are all "story books" - Mulan, Froze, Ariel, Belle. I wonder if these will be small books like #40291. They are a little over 100 pieces, so will be small, whatever they are.

    ^Any idea on when these are set to release?
  • BrickByBrickBrickByBrick Member Posts: 747
    my guess would be January 1st
  • CCCCCC Member Posts: 20,526
    Yeah, the list I read was January.

    Just saw the new Disney Storybook images on the main site. Oh my God are those new chibi mini-dolls adorable! Does this mean we can see Friends sets with the girls at a younger age or something? Maybe toddler Mini-Dolls for other sets? So many options, such a cute new element to create. The entire first batch of Disney sets in 2020 will be mine as soon as they're released I think. As long as the prices aren't ridiculously stupid.

    Are there no sets planned for Luca? I looked in all the usual places and I can find nothing. Surely Lego has something in store for Pixar's summer release?

    Doubt it.  Other than Toy Story, Incredibles nd Cars, I doubt we'll see any Pixar sets.  I think we're luck to get Raya sets.

    That's disheartening. A simple little set with some fish dudes and a Vespa would have been amazing!

    Lego seems to only do sets for pixar sequels so I wouldn't expect pixar waves anytime soon. Maybe for Lightyear if we're lucky

    I don't want to see more Toy Story stuff, tbh.  I passed on most of the last wave, grabbing only two of the sets. I was just hoping for lLuca and/or Alberto sea monster minifigs. 
  • ShibShib Member Posts: 5,469
    Would be more likely in a future Disney CMF line but I think the general reception to Luca has only been lukewarm so wouldn’t expect much.

    As I recall, we didn't get any Coco or Onward sets, either.  So unless it is an established mega-hit, or a direct Disney release, the LEGO is scant...

    Makes me wonder if the internal franchise costs for LEGO merchandise is far costlier than we know.  And if the folks at Pixar are shy about pushing LEGO merch for each project.

    It probably also matters if there are enough 'playable' items in the movie to make sets from. Raya has the boat and dragon which are attractive to kids. 

    Also we didn't even get Frozen sets until it had been out almost a year and was a proven mega hit.

    I would have loved sets based on Coco. Next year my LUG is doing a huge collaborative build of Dia de Los Muertos with Coco being a big influence on the builds.

    Frozen and Raya aren't Pixar movies, just Disney.
    I think Toy Story is the only Pixar movie translated to LEGO.

    Edit: and Cars.

    And Wall-E! But that was an exception. One small set per movie seems like the perfect thing for 18+ sets honestly

  • stluxstlux Member Posts: 2,450
    No love for Merida? Brave also had 1 set: #41051 Merida's Highland Games. Poor set, great minidoll.
    Admittedly it was released 1.5 years after the movie, but still. 

    So only Toy Story, Cars, Brave and The Incredibles got general release sets, and WALL-E got one through Ideas. That's less than a third of Pixar movies/franchises.
    Switchfoot55KungFuKennySumoLego
  • ShibShib Member Posts: 5,469
    The Brave set is a bit of an exception though as Merida is one of the official Disney Princesses and the set was under the Princess line rather than a specific Brave branded one.

  • jnscoelhojnscoelho Member Posts: 696
    I actually didn't know Merida was from Pixar. And because of what Shib said, I'd never think it was from Pixar.
    Nemo was a huge success and had no LEGO. Maybe it's not only success but also playability? I can't imagine LEGO doing cute Nemo sets back in the day...
  • TheOriginalSimonBTheOriginalSimonB Member Posts: 1,782
    They should have slapped the Nemo licence on the 3-in-1 fishtank.

    maybe fishes are hard to make in Lego. like you have the choice between something that hardly looks like Nemo, or something unaffordable to children.
  • Casper_vd_KorfCasper_vd_Korf Member Posts: 244
    Well, I would imagine something like the cars line, with a lot of new moulds

    Going to Disneyworld next week - anything worth looking for at the Disney Springs store?  Is #40478 available there?  Is #71044 still around?

    They had quite a few #40478 when I visited the Disney Springs LEGO store in mid-October! I was surprised. Happy Hunting!

    been there twice this week. hadn't seen either of those, but then again, I wasn't really looking for them. 
  • SumoLegoSumoLego Member Posts: 15,229
    So, judging by my astute observational skills, I think Elsa's Ice Castle is proving to be not-so-popular.

    One of the few moderately/high priced sets in stock at [email protected], and local LEGO Stores.  

    I happen to like the set, but seems to be in the sweet-spot of too-expensive and light demand...
