Maybe Diagon Alley is the same? I really hope that's not the case. I'd much rather have a physical instructions booklet than a digital one.

Modal Posted August 29, 2020 Posted August 29, 2020 I would be very upset if there wasn’t a Manuel booklet/s. It made sense for Mario with all it’s tech Compatibility, but I would hope they are more aware of who their $400 set market is. *cough* adults *cough*.
BrickBob Studpants Posted August 29, 2020 Posted August 29, 2020 Jumping to conclusions again, huh? I fail to see how a reveal event AR gimmick equals digital instructions Like the ones Hidden Side famously had?

Who needs physical blocks anymore, I would rather be part of the simulation

Why waste money on minifigs of wizards and witches we all wanted when you can just download digital versions? Sadly, I think this is the only way I will ever get the Daedalus Diggle and the Doris Crockford I had been hoping for.
Holden Brickfield Posted August 29, 2020 Posted August 29, 2020 Went out to my local target and went through all the checkout aisles until I finally found some CMF bags—felt for Dumbledore then took a random one. I was right about Dumbledore and got Myrtle! Then I went over to Kohl’s and found they had a box of them out, picked the one farthest to the back on the left row and felt Griphook. I’ll be getting a whole set through The Minifigure Store within a few weeks, but these are great ones to have multiples of, plus I was impatient (I live in Nebraska btw)

Bainter-ban Posted August 29, 2020 Posted August 29, 2020 Of course there will be physical booklets...
Jarreth2 Posted August 29, 2020 Posted August 29, 2020 Thought you’d all get a kick out of seeing this ( some of you may have already ) is this not the nest basilisk MOC ever ?

Terrasher Posted August 29, 2020 Posted August 29, 2020 Just now, Surge said: Source? Agreed. I understand an employee putting out a set too early, but an authorization from TLG? For a D2C? Mmmmmmh...

Honestly given the tremendous efforts TLG has gone through to virtually eradicate the leaked pictures from public view I'd be shocked to learn that the set has made it to the shelves of a store even by accident.

I don’t understand why TLG would ever allow that They do not have a secret police (... or at least I hope) and can`t control or sanction every retailer or Lego store. I bought the CMF today which wasn`t suppposed to be released before September 1st. Target and other American retailers are famous for breaking street dates (by a few weeks even) every time and Lego is still selling them the sets.

I would imagine its alot easier to prevent at a store that only sells stuff from one brand as opposed to superstores like target or Walmart.
