Ardelon Posted August 6, 2017 Posted August 6, 2017 Do we know it will be a mold, as opposed to being brick built? Quote

The source say moulded and for a city line that makes sense. Creator, winter village and seasonal use a lot of brick built animals or a mix, most other themes luckily do not One exception is the fantastic set 10193 Medieval Market Village where all the animals are moulded, except the birds. They are nice brick built birds, but look completely out of place next to the moulded animals in the set Quote
K_Tiger Posted August 6, 2017 Posted August 6, 2017 Source says it's gonna be in the ballpark of the Duplo Orca, a little longer, but not quite as much girth. I've not seen any pics of the Duplo Orca with a minifigure, but there is one floating around with a 2x6 plate that gives a sense of scale. Looks a little larger than the Big Shark. Quote
Roebuck Posted August 17, 2017 Author Posted August 17, 2017 After visiting http://www.newelementary.com/ for the first time I discovered that the parrot in the 60153 Fun at the Beach set is actually the updated mould in a new colour I did not look to closely at the parrot and just assumed that it was the old mould since that is the colour it have been in the last years (green/red).. Lego often release a set with an old animal mould after an updated mould is out, I guess to empty the storage of the old part. So I just assumed that had happen here as well As a oddity I checked bricks and pieces for a set with the old mould, and it had the new mould listed as if nothing had happened on the mould front Quote
Agent Kallus Posted August 17, 2017 Posted August 17, 2017 (edited) I think it will be this pigeon, not likely I know, but I am hopeful. And a brown recolour of the rabbit. Edited August 17, 2017 by AgentKallus of Hydra Quote
Legochaek Posted August 18, 2017 Posted August 18, 2017 I think giraffe and a recolour of frog. Quote

Good spot, Agent Kallus! Was this in the trailer for the film? The rabbit recolour is a good call. Hopefully the rabbit won't disappear, never to be seen again, like the ostrich and camel.

Oh I had missed that, I'm really glad of that though as it should mean it is easier to acquire more rabbits. Quote

When it comes to animal moulds Lego are really hard to predict! Take the goat, it is a one hit wonder. Or the seagull was until the Old Fishing Store forced them to bring it back Think about all the sets they could have put a seagull in during that time, it do not make sense Or how about the frog, that little critter jumps into a lot of sets all the time... Do you remember which city sets the rabbit suppose to be in? Mountain police? Winter village is also a likely place for a rabbit population Quote

Winter village is also a likely place for a rabbit population They are unpredictable and I'd wish they would update the frog piece and include printing on it as well and the same to the bat as well! I can't remember, at first I thought it was mountain police but inconsideration I don't think it was specified. Edited August 20, 2017 by J4ck Quote

The cobras have been readily available there lately, but that's only useful for people near a Lego store. Agree it's odd that it hasn't been reused yet in a set, or recoloured, though. Quote

Yup got it in one. It is rather odd, I feel the new pieces in CMF Series are not used to their absolute potential. Quote

Aye, I mean a skunk would be a nice addition to some of those city sets, be they swamp, forest or mountain ... and the seagull has to be the most underused of all. Quote

williejm Posted August 22, 2017 Posted August 22, 2017 I take it we clocked the recolour of the scorpion piece in dark blue in Ninjago movie set? Hardly a game-changer in the list of wants or guesses, I'll grant you ... Quote

Talking about the BAM, I get the seagull in it, was the seagull firt appearance was in CMF ? Same question about the chiwawa. We often see CMF parts in BAM, it seems LEGO prefers keep some CMF part for BAM instead of reuses for sets. Quote

To my knowledge the chihuahua has shown up in a few sets since then, but the Old Fishing Store this autumn will be first reuse of seagull. Quote
