Don't worry, we're feasting on goat cheese! At least, that's what I hope...

Just a little goatie humor!

The goat comes in the CMF so they used the budget there to include it in the set. probably comes with a new color and maybe even a kid in the set is my guess

The bigger shield is also back with basil the batlord, so expect that mould in the set as well  

You can get that oval shield on PAB in white and yellow it's been on there for awhile now.

The barbarian in the CMF compliments this nicely too.

And the gamer champion has an interesting blue torso with a black bird on it. Possibly could be repurposed into something special/different for a Black Falcon figure?

I think that's a nod to the black falcons as a gamer person or like an E-league type thing.

My first thought was 'curry' when I read that, TBH...

I meant that the Lego Community/ AFOLs ("Village") needs to hold a feast in honor of the goat's return... not to make a feast out of him!

You were way too medieval! LOL

At least the mould budget is saved then. However while I would like to see a baby goat aswell, I kinda think that might be to much for the budged if we expect new shields and are hoping for many new minifigure parts. I would gladly be wrong here though.

The shields and minifigs only need printing and that cost a lot less than a new mould so should have plenty of budget for that regardless of the set had a new mould or not

The promo picture showed light bluish gray, I think.  Would be pretty neat to get an additional color

The goat in the promo was a prelim mould and they have that colour, just meant the mould was not finished when they tok the picture

The goat lives! Too bad about the sets being in boxes, it's going to be a lot more difficult and expensive to get multiple of that one..

On the upside there might be goats in stock long after the first minifig-hunter visited the store  Not that it is cheap or smart to buy them random if you only want a few of them..

Thank you and @iragm for the info, I have not paid enough mind to the Shields

I´m talking more about logistics here, every part needs its own space and an set will only get a certain budget of "new" parts - and for logistics it doesn´t matter if it is a new mould, a new colour or just a new print.

I definitely wouldn't expect LEGO to introduce a baby goat mold this soon — seems to me like that'd make more sense to do after the full-size goat has been back for a few years and its novelty has worn off a bit. Same as how piglets, foals, and calves all came out years after the "adult" version of those animals. Granted, there have been exceptions, like how this year's Arctic sets introduced both adult and baby seal molds for the first time, or how the Wildlife Rescue sets a couple years ago introduced lion, lion cub, elephant, and elephant calf molds all in one wave. But I don't think there ought to be any particular rush.

Animals that were on the marked before they introduced juveniles will of course have a period without them, but these days it is just as common to get them in the same wave if it is a new animal. Now the CMF will get the honour of bringing back the goat, most likely that would not have happened if the MTS were not coming. However even if the set has a couple of goats in a different color from the CMF, it is still "old" news when the set show up some months after the CMF, if it includes a kid that is more of a wow factor again. Maybe I am setting myself up for disappointment, but I think this set has something to live up to when it comes to animals especially after MVR and to a lesser degree MMV. Everyone expect the animals from the promo to show up so they need to do some re-colours and preferrebly give us a new mould to make it pop

[Roebuck]

I assume only the goatherd torso or pants are used in the set to keep the CMF exclusive, was that not what happen with the bard last year?
If so which of them do you think will show up in the set?

I´m pretty sure the legs will. The torso, while not too modern still doesn´t look medival to me. I mean you could use it but I don´t particulary like that one that much. And the legs could basically be used by more than one villager having different torso. While the other way around I don´t think it would work.

It seems Medieval enough from what I can see, but the legs are definitely a better fit for the MTS.

I agree, it looks like it have a money pouch, I wonder how that will look with a torso that has one

I was previously hoping that the Majisto GWP would give us a sneak peak at what might be in this set.  Now I am hoping the GWP is a one off with absolutely nothing that will be included… except some of the bricks maybe.

The GWP Majisto set has nothing to do with the Market Village set.  The Majisto set is a throwback like the forestman set was.  We won't know anything about the Market Village set until someone actually leaks info on it.  The best idea is the picture that leaked earlier this year.

The Forestmen and their shield reappeared in the LKC, though, so many (myself included!) hoped that the GWP would hint at something from the MTS. 
 

[Roebuck]

Well it is hinthing to things it will not include at least; Majisto and dragon Knights parts 

Fine by my, we got a exselent Majisto in BAM and with the cross axe soldiers in the set it is good that they do not waste more minifigspots on a dragon knight or two. Hopefully they used the hole budget on animals and civilians 

I even forgot we got the cross axe shield last year so they do not even need to use any budget on that 

[Lion King]

Will this set be released in 2024? Do we know when it will be?

The missing shield in the Majisto actually makes me think we might not get any new shield at all and just the ones from the Lion Knights Castle. Or maybe worn broken one that the Smith can repair? That would actually be pretty cool IMO

That BAM Wizard is even less Majisto than the plain one is.

Thank you. There is no similarity at all besides the blue robe. He doesn't even have a beard.
The last wizard I am aware of that definitely looked like Majisto (before 10305) is the one from the Kingdoms advent calendar. But I think that's not official.

Well I would say it is not a coincidence that he looks like him, but for me that isn´t Majisto. It is clearly based on him, though. Anyways I don´t like the stars he is wearing on his head.

You might be right, Majisto was in my dark age so I have no past relation to him other than I know it is a blue wizard  However the BAM one is a far superior blue wizard at least

It is for me too - and don´t get me wrong, I also like him - but he certainly is no Majisto for me.

[Retrocity]

There is a Merlok figure from a Nexo Knights book that has a resemblance to Majisto as well. I didn't know this figure existed and randomly found the book with it last year in a buyout store and scooped it up for like $5.

Would really suck if they have a shieldsmith’s workshop and no new shield prints.  Not saying they wouldn’t do it, but after not having one in the GWP…  Well, that would be more than disappointing.
