You all have probably seen this... there was a set from Jedi: Fallen Order (video game). If this game is a hit MAYBE we see something. Also I can not believe that there won't come any Dial of Destiny sets. There has to bee some kind of agreement. New indy sets, new movie, no indy sets from new movie? IMPOSSIBLE!

Dial of Destiny game, perhaps BUT there is a whole new story and characters! 

Was interested in this until I saw that it isn't even coming out on the PS5. It's exclusive to XBOX and the PC.

But sadly, video games rarely ever get Lego sets. Star Wars is the exception. Even Hogwarts Legacy, the best-selling game of last year, hasn't gotten any sets so I doubt Indiana Jones would considering the film flopped and the franchise is dead.

You guys get all the other good exclusives. Spider-Man, Helldivers, God of War, even the KOTOR remake (though I think the game has to exist to count). Let us have this one!

Agreed. I hope the game'll be great, but it wouldn't mean anything for the theme.

That's true, I can't complain there. I'm so used to Playstation exclusives that I think it shocked me that this one was an XBOX one because I didn't even realize there were still XBOX exclusives.

Apparently the set may not be revealed on April 1st. The leaker said that people (specifically the ReleasetheToD account) were badgering them for images, and he had revealed the image of Mola Ram which was leaked without his consent. On one hand, I do feel for him, and I think that sharing images that you were given confidentially is objectively a bad thing, but I'm also kind of skeptical that the leaker had the full image in the first place, if I'm being completely honest. Too many things just kinda point to them not being trustworthy either.

On the one hand, getting harassed over a picture of a set that will never see the light of day sucks and is supremely silly if you think about it. People should accept and respect others' boundaries. On the other hand, why did he put his watermark on the image if he never intended to share it with anyone in the first place?

So yeah, we will likely not see the full image now. Sucks for the customisers!

RIP modern Lego Indiana Jones. 2023-2023.

You shall be missed. (It was probably inevitable as the villains of every set would be seen as either “racist stereotypes” or breaking Lego’s no real world military rule. No less them being Nazis, British Colonial Soldiers or Red Army soldiers.) Anyway it’s pretty understandable to see that Indy probably wouldn’t be able to last long as a theme in today’s political climate. And that’s not even covering the flop and utter disappointment that was Indy 5.

 

I’m surprised that @legoturtle hasn’t turned this thread into an Aslume like the DC thread yet.

@Clone OPatra can you just lock this thread please? This is getting ridiculous with the baseless rumors some people are spreading.

This is what I asked Moderator to lock this thread last year but they never did it.

let’s scream “lock it” together. 

[Black Falcon]

I know it is annoying when people come and beat the dead horse, especially when it seems a lot like trolling at this point. But I don´t see why that should be a reason to lock this thread as people still can talk about the sets here. And in the end, people also can just open a new thread instead if they would want to, so closing this one down wouldn´t change anything ;).

[Clone OPatra]

Exactly. If you're not interested, don't reply. Simple as that.

[Huigberts Builds]

I just saw a pretty clear image of the cancelled Mola Ram figure. Is that like a new leak or did I miss some old leaks? All I knew about was the blurry box image and the voodoo doll.

As I'm not a fan of fleshie minifigs I switched the ones from sets 77013 and 77012 in yellow ones ( and gave the mummy dark tan arms). What do you think?

And this is exactly the reason, why this thread shouldn't be locked.

By the way, good job with the figures.

Thank you very much!

[MagBuilds]

Yea great job, those are very nice. It's like looking into a reality where Indy had a classic yellow tone run like star wars did.

[The Reader]

@MagBuilds Thank you very much!

I can‘t believe I‘m opening this can of worms again, but could @TandNbricks hint at Indy returning? Which other „old“ themes that didn‘t have sets in the „last 1-2 years“ could qualify?

I know the chances are super slim, but the possibility is there

[Black Falcon]

There is like no hint towards this theme though. And I honestly don´t see why they should make Sets for it now - there is no new Film coming, and if they had plans to do more sets they would have made them after the other sets.

Well, I said chances were super slim. The only reason I suggested it was because it would fit with the hint, not that it made any sense. He has since stated in a separate question that he wants the theme to return, which indicates he hinted at something else

Maybe we just need a whole CMF of gollum inspired characters.  Like Gollum Legolas, Gollum Alfred, etc.

It was Alfrid (not Alfred) that was the greasy advisor in the Hobbit movies.

Don't make me tap the sign.

I think knowing his name should come with jail time
