Some Guy With LEGO Posted January 14, 2022 Posted January 14, 2022 5 hours ago, TeriXeri said: 2021 Surfer Beach House was a pretty decent house/shop type of build, bigger then the other 2 beach houses and while double hinged it was still fully closed. Yes you are right. That was my bias based on 1) I was focusing on buildings that fit in urban area (shops and what not) and 2) it's so over styled and busy personally I don't feel it fits in with the other beach houses, petshop, etc...but as said that's my bias. The Safari tree house is a bit cleaner/less busy, but hard to integrate in any urban environment. I'll fix my post above. Quote
Mr No Posted January 16, 2022 Posted January 16, 2022 Will the pirates ship and castle still be in production this year or I should hurry to get them? Quote

Brickset isn't listing any exit dates for the sets, so it's likely they will bet available until at least the end of this year. Quote

They need to bring back the family houses as well. Quote

But I’m just curious about other Creator Expert/18+ sets this year. Not my department, I'm afraid. I'm usually on the Lego Town forum. My usual Lego philosophy is, if it isn't for children, it isn't for me either! That said, I do understand that the 'Creator Expert' lable has been retired, and '18+' covers a wider variety of products. It's all very confusing and, in my opinion, wrong; most of the 18+ sets can be assembled by a younger person. Quote
TeriXeri Posted January 28, 2022 Author Posted January 28, 2022 (edited) So far for 2022 beside the hotel there's the Vespa Scooter discussed here: Other 2022 sets would be : (source : https://www.promobricks.de/lego-2022-neuheiten/#ultp-id-1685d4d2 ) 10299 Estadio Santiago Bernabéu 349,99€ 03/2022 10300 Back to the Future: DeLorean 169,99€ 04/2022 10311 Orchidee 49,99€ 2022 Creator Expert type sets tend to get their own threads / discussion, I mainly made this Creator 2022 to house the smaller sets including 3-in-1, of course doesn't mean that Creator Expert can't be discussed here, but easier to focus discussion on bigger sets in their own threads when they already exist. Modular usually gets discussed in Town, a Train usually in Trains, and Creator Expert vehicles usually get topics in this subforum. Edited January 28, 2022 by TeriXeri Quote
Ajf350d Posted January 29, 2022 Posted January 29, 2022 Has there been anything more about the ‘postcard’ sets that didn’t happen on Jan 1st? Don’t actually recall any official comment. I rather liked those. Quote

Only thing I can find on those is that Bricklink now calls them : New York Postcard (summer release) Beijing Postcard (summer release) Quote
Ajf350d Posted January 29, 2022 Posted January 29, 2022 Thanks, so we may yet see them released then, just a bit later than planned. Quote
ratjag Posted January 30, 2022 Posted January 30, 2022 Not to change gears, but has there been any more info on the rumored creator Viking ship? Quote

No idea if and how the shields will be printed, if the figs will reuse some known pieces. I hope they'll reuse the accurate viking helmets from the CMF! I really look forward to it as well. I try to get rid of most of my collection but to keep and upgrade all my ships. It was really hard to not get the great pirate ship from last year - but it would have just been too big of an effort to change all the weird colours and brick built sails.. Speaking of which: the sails are written again to be "built" - I assume this means brick built as well. There will also be a submarine with an octopus, which sounds interesting. Quote

In terms of CREATOR mini-modulars for towns and cities, we've got: 2021: Surfer Beach house 2020: toy shoppe (great but no back) 2019: petshop (great but no back), cabin (too small) 2018: skate house, winter vacation, sweep surprises (none of which were great for a city imho) 2017: townhouse & beachside vacation (last of the 3D closed back CREATOR buildings) and the 3 modular houses (which I passed on) 2016: Lighthouse, corner deli, lakeside lodge - all great enclosed sets. 2015: Changing Seasons, Toy Shop, Beach Hut - all good sets 2014: Bike Shop and Cafe - I think the best on this list. Also started the trend of Mini-figure scale mini-modular cit buildings as opposed to single family homes. My point is in 8 years we've received 6 city oriented mini-figure scale buildings (excluding cabins, lighthouses and beach huts), and so ANY city building is a rare breed and valuable. If the Noodle Shop is like the toy shop of 2020 I'll be thrilled, as City buildings tend to be overly simple even for the age range. Also, I should add because of 3-in-1 there are at least 14 reasonable city building designs of various sizes from the above bolded city oriented sets. Also, put be down as someone who loved the enclosed buildings with hinges! It's a shame we only get around one building per year. These are usually great (maybe a bit too "crowded" in some cases) and full of useful pieces for MOCing. I usually buy a few of each set since I think it's more fun to get pieces from sets instead of Bricklink or Bricks & Pieces/Pick-a-Brick. Quote
TeriXeri Posted January 31, 2022 Author Posted January 31, 2022 The alternate from 31124: Super Robot has a lot of Warcraft dragon whelp shaping to it, proportion wise (picked the mechanical one as example due to color scheme) Quote
Ondra Posted February 1, 2022 Posted February 1, 2022 I just saw details of street racer. This set is very speed championized and b and c model seems lackluster, so Im really curious what is possible to do with that set else. I think these big wheels are very limiting other alternate models... Albeit it reminds me a lot some tuned SUV from 2000 era... Which is nice throwback! Quote

The family houses also deserve annual redesign, it has some nostalgic value to it and is an OG Lego theme. In my opinion, both themes give me the OG Lego vibes I cannot find it on the Creator Modular sets due to their larger builds and more serious look rather than fun. Quote
