If you look at their recent history you can see what they have allegedly leaked. While it is advisable to be cautious with this information, I genuinely do believe this information may be true. Thanks, that's clearer. So in theory the dragon's source could confirm the whole list

It would look like you're displaying Star Lord's severed head, which is most likely why they decided not to include it. I don't necessarily want the hair ontop, but it probably could have had some more work done to obscure the middle segment and anti-studs. 48 minutes ago, kevkipo said: Any idea on when we'll get more info on the CMF? Official reveal for the previous one was in July. We had a rough confirmation of figure selection in April, but that was provided by Bohner who sadly disappeared... maybe in a time of great need the Bohner will rise again. Best guess we'll get information on the figures by the end of April and confirmation/reveal in July. The release date is indeed September. 40 minutes ago, Legocentrico said: So in theory the dragon's source could confirm the whole list I believe we had remarks on the Malificent Dragon and a Snow White Cottage prior, so I would not necessarily use its existence to justify the remarks made. We've had situations in the past where someone has used pre-existing remarks on sets via more legitimate sources as a platform for shoveling their own 'leaks'. Just think its best keeping a healthy level of skepticism. Edited February 1, 2023 by Scarilian
VincentLord Posted February 1, 2023 Posted February 1, 2023 I think the helmet might be my favourite one yet across themes in terms of pure aesthetics, but it does look really small for that price. I'll gladly buy it if it gets a deep discount at some point but 80 euros for something that small feels silly even for 2023 licensed sets standards.

Lemerbrix Posted February 1, 2023 Posted February 1, 2023 My reaction to the star lord helmet where is this for? I’ll do you one better, who is this for? I’ll do you one better, why is this for? seriously, a star lord pencil holder…
Legocentrico Posted February 1, 2023 Posted February 1, 2023 In any case… Marvel helmets, Star Wars helmets, DOTS Harry Potter, Brick headz, polybag… LEGO! We want to see the sets! minifigure playsets!!! :-D Nuisance

thebricksbear Posted February 1, 2023 Posted February 1, 2023 I cannot believe Lego actually doubled down on "It's also a pencil holder!" LMAO
kevkipo Posted February 1, 2023 Posted February 1, 2023 Visited a toystore here in the Netherlands today. The gauntlet and helmets are warming shelves big time. Meanwhile the mechs and tinier playsets are selling much better. I feel this repeats the pattern that I experienced back as a Lego buying child. A smaller, cheaper set is much more accessible to children, we've known that. But with inflation, I wonder if it's not the same for the casual adult consumer? With products like the Hulkbuster and BP bust becoming more frequent, I really wonder if continuing big sets like this would do more harm than good? Also, about the potential X-mansion set. I could defenitely buy in to that rumor. X-men 97 is big time nostalgia hype. The show wouldn't be revived if it weren't for the huge nostalgia factor that Disney likes to cash in on. And since Disney and Lego are keen to jump onto nostalgia bandwagons as of late, combined with the increase of sets oriented towards adults, I could defenitely see it.

I think the only locations that sell it are New York, London, and Hong Kong. Star-Lord helmet looks excellent, but $10 more than the SW helmets for a hollow one with no top? What? And between the dragon and LOTR it's starting to look like I owe @JeanGreyForever an apology for my skepticism.

Legocentrico Posted February 1, 2023 Posted February 1, 2023 I am still sceptical. Does the same Lego that pulverizes accounts for a minifigure leak show material still in the works without protecting secrecy? It all seems too strange to me

Legocentrico Posted February 1, 2023 Posted February 1, 2023 Promobricks has shed some light. Even if the source is legitimate, it is not guaranteed that the sets will come out, and even if they come out it could be within a few years

It's obviously true, but it sounds extremely surreal. Like, Lego is always extremely secretive with everything. Them showing a single D2C already sounds farfetched, but how did they randomly decide to show all of those? Have those surveys allways been a thing but no one decided to leak them?
hvader Posted February 1, 2023 Posted February 1, 2023 Star Lord Helmet looks good... wonder if we'll see the other vol 3 sets soon. X-Mansion sounds like a dream come true, especially if it's based on the animated series

Meaf Posted February 1, 2023 Posted February 1, 2023 I am not at all the market for the helmets so perhaps my opinion doesn't really matter, but I just don't get what they were going for with the Star Lord helmet. It looks good for the most part, but the whole top being empty just does not work at all. I can appreciate that they were stuck between a rock and a hard place since I imagine building the hair would look odd too (not to mention that it'd increase the price a good deal), yet I can't help but think that this was not the best way to go about it.
