My standard order (not a very big one since most of the parts in my order were bestseller) from late October has apparently shipped as of a week or so ago and is now on its way to me here in Australia.
-
My big bestseller order from late October has supposedly landed in Australia although I suspect its still sitting in customs or something (the tracking doesn't indicate its been handed off to the local delivery company yet)
-
If they did a NCC-1701-D with a Picard minifigure then "shut up and take my Gold Pressed Latinum" :)
-
I want that cheese costume.
-
-
I hope my late October bestseller order ships soon...
-
If we are talking Cartoon Network, my biggest wish for minifigs would probably be Kids Next Door. That show was amazing and certainly the main characters could translate into minifigs.

I placed an order on the 30th of October (standard and bestseller) and it hasn't shipped yet. Should I be concerned at this point? (the "Books are my passion" GWP showed up just fine though)

What do you mean only one DC set? Reports are we are getting Batmobile vs Freeze, Superman Mech vs Luthor (finally, a set that doesn't have Batman in it) and Tumbler vs Two-Face and Joker in January with a big D3C Arkham to launch at some point later in the year. As for the Spidey-Dinos, blame the producers of Spidey and his Amazing Friends for that, not LEGO.

Picked up some XMAS Bam from the Dreamworld LEGO store the other day, happy with that.

The good thing about the new botanic garden is that other than the sticker sheet, all the new stuff should appear on LEGO online PaB sometime early next year so for those who, say, already have the Friends garden (or multiples of that) you will be able to get and add some of the new stuff from this one if you want.
-
Based on what parts were in that wave, this is almost certainly what will have landed on PaB: 6492343/6492344 (one will be the painted head from the mime and one will be the swim goggles head from the swimmer) 6494790 (big skirt piece from the queen) 6500502 (dark azure baseball cap) 6492478 (red beanie/knit cap) 6493124 (queen hair) 6494787/6493322 (one will be the queen torso and one will be the mime torso) 6493320 (swimmer torso) 6493278 (horse rider torso) 6493265 (store worker torso) 6492480 (magenta swim cap)

Many of the settings Yosemite Sam uses his six guns in are historical (wild west, "pirates" era, civil war type stuff). Altlough if the guns really are a problem, they could do Yosemite in one of the instances where he has swords or other things instead of guns.
-
New parts (the aforementioned BaM bits as well as some other stuff including parts from Bumblebee) have just landed on PaB.
-
How is giving one of the more "realistic" gun pieces to, say, Indiana Jones or Two Face or Black Widow any different to giving that same gun piece to Elmer Fudd or Yosemite Sam?
-
Looking at Looney Tunes specifically, the problem with that is that (in the form most people would want them in) a number of the "missing" characters are no longer considered acceptable (or at least not so much in a kids toy). Pepe Le Pew chases females and tries to make love to them without their permission. Both Elmer Fudd and Yosemite Sam have guns in their most well known forms (which is no longer OK apparently). And I think there is something controversial about Foghorn Leghorn as well (although I am not sure what) Who else has appeared often enough to make sense to consider for LEGO product?
-
Probably the DreamWorks franchise I would want LEGO product for the most would be Madagascar.
-
Its surprising how many minifigs from Disney films we have gotten. In terms of films I wish we had minifigs from, I would say for Pixar my wish would be Monsters Inc and Inside Out.and for Disney it would be Tarzan and Wreck-It-Ralph. (Inside Out got a minidoll set and a BrickHeadz pack but the others have never appeared in LEGO at all as far as I know)
-
LEGO seems to be funny with Ninjago specifically in terms of what lands on PaB and when. Other than Ninjago parts and parts that are clearly licensed, all the June parts did end up on PaB (including all the new City parts, Friends parts etc)
-
Looks like some of the missing parts showed up (Up BrickHeadz printed brick, Monkie Kid torso, bright light blue train door, missing yellow wedge tile and a couple more). Just waiting for the rest of the parts I want to make it to the bestseller warehouse (and for the 2 x 2 printed helicopter tile from the yellow LEGO truck to show up for sale for Australia, its already showing up for sale for other countries) and I can look at placing this order.
-
Seems that there are a bunch of parts that were on the list of "supposedly comming this month" parts that haven't made PaB yet. A bunch of Ninjago parts didn't land (Ninjago is always weird about what does and doesn't land on PaB and when it lands), also the printed scout uniform brick from the Up BrickHeadz, the bright-light-blue train door from the HP Carriage set, a pair of dinosaur arms, the Monkie Kid Nine-Headed Demon cape, the Monkie Kid torso from the Pagoda set and a couple of others. Seems the sound brick from the Retro Radio set is somehow locked and wont be comming to PaB. Although it would probably cost a fortune if it did.
