Lyichir Posted December 3, 2015 Posted December 3, 2015 Are there no new pictures of the dragons? Official pics? Not yet. It looks like Elves might be getting a March release like it did this year, meaning official pics are probably still a little ways off. Quote
CM4Sci Posted December 3, 2015 Posted December 3, 2015 Official pics? Not yet. It looks like Elves might be getting a March release like it did this year, meaning official pics are probably still a little ways off. Catalog says March. Quote
OmShanti Posted December 4, 2015 Posted December 4, 2015 Catalog says March. A March release makes sense. I think I missed something though, what catalog? Quote
CM4Sci Posted December 4, 2015 Posted December 4, 2015 A March release makes sense. I think I missed something though, what catalog? Retailer catalog. Quote
OmShanti Posted December 4, 2015 Posted December 4, 2015 Oh, cool. Wish I were or knew a Lego retailer so I could see those catalogs, that would be rad. Quote
Lyichir Posted December 13, 2015 Posted December 13, 2015 Kinda hoping that we'll get official Elves pics soon, considering we just got Ninjago pics the other day... though it might be that that was just a fluke. Quote
JacloS_UA Posted December 13, 2015 Posted December 13, 2015 Kinda hoping that we'll get official Elves pics soonI look forward to them very much too!Ninjago pleased, now turn to the Elves! Quote
CM4Sci Posted December 13, 2015 Posted December 13, 2015 Kinda hoping that we'll get official Elves pics soon, considering we just got Ninjago pics the other day... though it might be that that was just a fluke. What do you mean? They exist, they're out there, they're just watermarked. Quote
Vorkosigan Posted December 13, 2015 Posted December 13, 2015 They're watermarked confidential, hence they are not "official" as in finalized and officially released. They're also not nearly full resolution. Quote

They're also not nearly full resolution. I mean, the ones I have are pretty big and clear. That watermark is such an annoyance though. Quote
Lyichir Posted December 13, 2015 Posted December 13, 2015 I mean, the ones I have are pretty big and clear. That watermark is such an annoyance though. I don't know if the ones you have are the same as the ones I have, but the finalized Ninjago pics are a lot bigger—the finalized Ninjago pics from Amazon are all 1500 pixels wide, while the biggest Elves pics I've had have been 920 pixels wide at the widest. On top of that, the Elves pics we have are just the front of box pics. The Ninjago pics we got also include out-of-box pics and the back of the box pics, which could shed some light on aspects of the sets we haven't seen yet (like what the interiors of the Starlight Inn and Secret Marketplace include).

just2good Posted December 13, 2015 Posted December 13, 2015 Kinda hoping that we'll get official Elves pics soon, considering we just got Ninjago pics the other day... though it might be that that was just a fluke. Well, Elves is a Spring release worldwide, so we will have to wait a little longer. Quote

I remember seeing the inside of the Inn somewhere... I swear it's got a ladder and a bed on the 2nd floor. I'll have to find that image. Quote
Lyichir Posted December 13, 2015 Posted December 13, 2015 Well, Elves is a Spring release worldwide, so we will have to wait a little longer. Is Ninjago any different? I know that's also a Spring release, at least in the U.S. I had hoped that the release of those pics might mean that other Spring pics might show up, but if Ninjago is a January release in France then I guess my hopes were misguided...

OmShanti Posted December 14, 2015 Posted December 14, 2015 Finalized images would be nice. I haven't seen the boxes yet. All I've seen are the preliminary set images, and those were very small. Quote
Bissspuren Posted December 17, 2015 Posted December 17, 2015 (edited) Here you go Edited December 17, 2015 by Bissspuren Quote
8BrickMario Posted December 17, 2015 Posted December 17, 2015 (edited) I like the dragon eggs, and the new curved horn-like piecein front of the archway on the Inn look good. And of course, the usage of the new books! Edited December 17, 2015 by 8BrickMario Quote
Wardancer Posted December 17, 2015 Posted December 17, 2015 (edited) A new shield. Elven beige, with a free space, taunting us for customization! And finally green dragon wings without golden areas. Edited December 17, 2015 by Wardancer Quote
tafkatb Posted December 17, 2015 Posted December 17, 2015 There's a rather sinister-looking castle in the background - sneak peek at a villain set for the summer wave? Quote
Wardancer Posted December 17, 2015 Posted December 17, 2015 They are using chewbaccas crossbow to shoot cookies for the dragons! This is madness! Quote
Aanchir Posted December 17, 2015 Posted December 17, 2015 Nice! Here's the story description: Begleite Emily Jobes und die Elfen auf ihren neuen Abenteuern!Emily Jones bricht mit ihren Elfenfreunden zu einer neuen Mission auf — bei der sich diesmal alles um Drachen dreht! Um das Leben der frisch geschlüpften Babydrachen zu retten, müssen Emily und die Elfen sie schnell wieder mit ihrer Drachenmutter vereinen, die in Gefangenschaft lebt. Keine leichte Aufgabe! Die Freunde müssen sich auf die Suche nach den in Elvendale verstreuten Elementar-Drachen machen und die zerbrochene Freundschaft zwischen Drachen und Elfen wiederherstellen. Denn auch Elvendale ist in Gefahr! Apply a little Google Translate and we get... Join Emily Jones and the elves on their new adventures!Emily Jones sets out with her elven friends on a new mission — which this time is all about dragons! In order to save the life of the newly hatched baby dragon, Emily and the Elves must unite her quickly with her dragon mother, who lives in captivity. Not an easy task! The friends have to make to the search for the Elemental Dragons scattered across Elvendale and restore the broken friendship between dragons and elves. For even Elvendale is in danger! The castle in the distance is probably where the mother dragon is being kept. There's a similarly sinister-looking well or cauldron in the Fire Dragon's Lava Cave set. Quote
8BrickMario Posted December 17, 2015 Posted December 17, 2015 I'm glad the new teapot is in these sets, too, so I don't need Friends. I'm also liking the hourglass more. While it looks awful being held, it'd look nice on a table, and the dual-molded insides are nice. Quote
CM4Sci Posted December 17, 2015 Posted December 17, 2015 aHA! I KNEW there was a new teapot piece! It looks great! Maybe it'll be reused for the Disney CMF series. Quote
Vorkosigan Posted December 17, 2015 Posted December 17, 2015 Sweet thanks for the link to the catalog. The inn and marketplace are great as expected. I'm liking those dragon banners that are in a couple sets. The dragon book is great, I'm glad to see the new book mold outside of Nexo Knights. The shield is good as well. The green dragon has been known for a while but still a highlight. Quote
