It would be a total shame to not make a deer next year somehow!! I could not agree more Should be easy to put it in e.g. a city set since there is no castle sets coming. Maybe a friends set as long as they do not print on doe-eyes (pun intended) Just now, Itaria No Shintaku said: I'd really welcome some nature photographers sets, like people going taking pictures of deers, moose or the like. What a fantastic idea for a city sub-theme Edited October 4, 2019 by Roebuck Quote
Itaria No Shintaku Posted October 4, 2019 Posted October 4, 2019 On the other hand they never reprised the goat mold... so I'm not hopeful. Quote

The designer of the Jurassic Park D2C set wanted put a goat in the stomach of the TRex! But unfortunately he didn’t have enough time to remake the mold. Quote

It started out as a guessing game, but became more news related and discussions about animal moulds as time went by.. I did not think it was possible to change the headline, before I tried now after your comment Maybe a moderator can merge this tread with the "round 1" and "round 2" also? Quote
K_Tiger Posted October 13, 2019 Posted October 13, 2019 It;s being reported over in the Harry Potter thread that a new bulldog (floppy ears and a red collar) and owl have leaked. I've yet to find said leaks, but thought I'd mention it anyhow. Quote

Bugbot20082 Posted October 13, 2019 Posted October 13, 2019 The new Harry Potter patronus stag has a slot in the back to enable a saddle etc to fit. I would expect at least it to be used in a Christmas Santa sled set :) Quote
Bugbot20082 Posted October 13, 2019 Posted October 13, 2019 Also I’m a big fan of the new little dove which is coming in the Aladdin sets, it is quite versatile: if they colour it brown and give it new paint it would make an excellent European robin Quote

Looking forward to the dog, I have not found it yet. Quote
julesvincent Posted October 13, 2019 Posted October 13, 2019 The Harry Potter people in the Licensed thread say it's not Errol. As I wrote there, I could imagine the Bulldog in the Modular Building, and the owl maybe to a possible Winnie the Pooh ideas set, that just reached 10.000 votes. But Hidden Side seems plausible as well. Quote

Bulldog I have no idea about. Seems a little odd to get a bulldog so soon after the French bulldog ... Quote

Still have not seen it , but i think the designer teams within Lego talk and collaborate a lot. So e.g. the Hidden side say they are making a new dog mould for a named character, they have not decided on the breed, but it needs to have a lot of personality. Then in comes the WW team and say they need a bulldog for Ripper in a set they are making next year. So they agree to make a bulldog for Hidden side with a gold tooth and angry eyes to give it character, that the WW team can reuse with a more realistic printing later.. I am pretty sure that was what happened with the updated rat mould! It was definitely made with WW in mind, but came in a city set first. Extinct frozen animals in ice; Mammoth, Saber-toothed tiger and rat! Find the odd one out Quote
Itaria No Shintaku Posted October 14, 2019 Posted October 14, 2019 The owl is from a city FIREMEN set. Quote

Have not been one since the set in your profile picture I think.. A new mould would be best, but something like a zebra as a recolored horse would also work very well. At the very least include a existing animal, if they do not include a animal it is no safari right Quote
