I don't mind this kind of teasing, in fact I welcome it and wish they did this with all of the D2c sets It's far more exciting than waiting for leaked pictures that usually look like they were taken by the same cameras they use to capture Bigfoot BTW, has anyone noticed the trans-red light brick? Maybe we're getting a beacon after all, I don't know what else it could be used for in this context Quote
Han solo died Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 An alternative angle on Instagram shows the wolf to be angry. https://www.instagram.com/p/BTgGiFUBTJt/ Quote
DungeonsAndFlagons Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 Well that new angle shows that 'head' is actually a nougat coloured brick. So we can rule out the bald head idea from the first photo. Thought it wad a bit to easy.... The third minifig is still a mystery.... Quote
BrickBob Studpants Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 (edited) Of course we've all primarily been looking for parts suggesting new mobs or accessories, but I wonder what can be inferred from the teaser in terms of the actual build. I spot a curved tile and a spider web piece, suggesting the presence of a mineshaft. The sand green plates are also noteworthy, maybe to represent some type of grass? Plus there seem to be quite a few technic pieces, hinting at some mechanisms (probably of an explosive nature, given the TNT and the charged Creeper) Edited May 1, 2017 by Lego-Freak Quote
DungeonsAndFlagons Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 I am thinking open on all sides maybe like Death Star 10188 playset. Different areas on 2 or more levels that you can move through with a lot of play features. One of the best ways of combining play, height of set, accessability and weight reduction. It would have to be the flagship of Minecraft sets. Quote

I guess a lava pool and small waterfall are included, a lot of rock work, mine shaft is indeed likely. The sand green plates lead me to believe the Overworld in this set will be Tundra biome. The pole is still a mystery to me. I could see it being a vine, but that doesn't make sense in a Tundra biome, does it? Btw, @DungeonsAndFlagons, that is a sweet profile picture you've got there!

SweetiePie88 Posted May 3, 2017 Posted May 3, 2017 Wish they'd quit w/ the teasing. I just want to know what the set looks like and the price Quote
Han solo died Posted May 3, 2017 Posted May 3, 2017 A press release should be soon but rumour has it that the VIP early access is mid June. We may have to wait till at most the end of the month Quote
SweetiePie88 Posted May 3, 2017 Posted May 3, 2017 Groan. I don't want them to make us wait that long for info. The lego market is nearly dry as a bone for me and i'm already bored out of my mind Quote
Ashnflash Posted May 4, 2017 Posted May 4, 2017 (edited) Another tease and official look at the bat: I tried to piece the two pics together in photoshop but they don't line up. Seeing that it is a Cave Spider might make me get this set because I didn't bother picking up the End Portal set. Edited May 4, 2017 by Ashnflash Quote
Goonmo Posted May 5, 2017 Posted May 5, 2017 Here you go, they don't line up exactly as their is a gap left out of the image, but both are probably taken from the same picture (probably the front box art). Quote
DungeonsAndFlagons Posted May 5, 2017 Posted May 5, 2017 (edited) Sections of box art piece by piece. This is getting wierd. Ooh I missed the bat. Now all is good. Love the bat. Edited May 5, 2017 by DungeonsAndFlagons Quote
Exetrius Posted May 5, 2017 Posted May 5, 2017 I'm impressed that the bat uses only an exclusive print, the rest are common pieces, I expected a new mould for the wings. Quote

New mould for the wings would have added a fair bit to the bat. The brown mixed with the black is a little odd but I think they needed to do it to make sure the bats eyes stood out. I think all black on a small build would make details hard to make out. The eyes are a very nice piece. Quote

First was the shadow image,, then the pile image, and now we are only getting a couple teeny images. I wish they'd show us what in the world is going on. :( Quote

I want to see it. Weird was maybe not the exact word I was looking for. It just seems a little over the top. I am not one for patience. ;) Quote
SweetiePie88 Posted May 6, 2017 Posted May 6, 2017 Lego minecraft facebook uploaded another image. Quote
Han solo died Posted May 6, 2017 Posted May 6, 2017 Looks a nice set no doubt but this is rediculous. I like the use of the sign. Quote
Goonmo Posted May 6, 2017 Posted May 6, 2017 (edited) Here's the new image with the other two, just another piece of the puzzle. For a D2C this doesn't look like it will be too visually pleasing. The Village is a very nice looking set and it's very clean, but this seems to follow sets like The Cave and the Mine which are kind of a mess. Edited May 6, 2017 by Goonmo Quote
SweetiePie88 Posted May 6, 2017 Posted May 6, 2017 So at the rate they are giving is images, we might have a full image in time for Christmas -_- Quote
