legopiratelord Posted January 28, 2015 Posted January 28, 2015 ... but it's possible this is from Aira's Pegasus Sleigh and the other horse and the sleigh are off camera. With the new picture, it's clear this is only from the Sky Castle set, so hopefully Aira's Sleigh will have horses with white wings (I think the ones in the show's teaser had white wings). Although the look of this one is growing on me. Quote
TheOneVeyronian Posted January 28, 2015 Posted January 28, 2015 The only thing that really interests me with the Sky Castle is the winged horse, and even then only for the wings (not really a fan of the Friends style horses). I think I will be heading for BL for those wings. Quote
Dorayaki Posted January 28, 2015 Posted January 28, 2015 (edited) Looking at the badges..... so despite Farran is a team leader, his leaf power rank is the lowest? (but it could just be that leaf power represents the ground). And Skyra's color pretty resembles Aira so she's probably a wind elf too? The new hairpiece looks abit like Togrutas for unknown reason. Wait, she's more like..... About that Atlantis castle, the design is okay but abit childish to me. This kind of window representation reminds me of Heartlake Shopping Mall, which falls "flat" alittle bit. But again, this theme is still experimental so we can only expect more when this theme continues. Edited January 28, 2015 by Dorayaki Quote
Cloveapple Posted January 29, 2015 Posted January 29, 2015 Mmm...mugs. Still need a good beer mug/stein for our little Lego pals. I get that TLG may not be keen on it, but 3rd party guys need to get going with that! My dwarves, orcs, vikings, goblins, hobbits, etc are thirsty... Third party CrazyBricks is making some cool steins as part of their Bricks of the Mouseguard kickstarter project at https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/crazybricks/bricks-of-the-mouse-guard-for-your-miniature-figur Quote
Laura Beinbrech Posted January 29, 2015 Posted January 29, 2015 Now, I definitely need the castle. I agree: Not just the castle, but all the minidolls in it & the pegasus as well. :) Quote
Cloveapple Posted January 29, 2015 Posted January 29, 2015 I just had a thought... I was looking at the spiky hair with pointed ears, and I started to wonder... Do you think this theme will ever give us an appropriate bowl cut with pointy ears for a Vulcan or Romulan? This is probably just wishful thinking, but do you think there's actually a chance of it happening? I know this is heresy.... sensitive Lego fans may wish to avert their eyes.... but, it has been reported elsewhere that Kreon hair (made by Hasbro) fits on Lego minifigures. It's supposedly a bit of a tight fit, but it will go on. Add in the fact that Hasbro makes Star Trek Kreon figures and you've got Spock hair that fits on Lego minifigs. Quote
Wardancer Posted January 29, 2015 Posted January 29, 2015 Hmpf, they seem to work hard to ensure that the animals can only be used in friends/elves. That pegasus is way too cute. Quote
Aanchir Posted January 29, 2015 Posted January 29, 2015 Hmpf, they seem to work hard to ensure that the animals can only be used in friends/elves. That pegasus is way too cute. The pegasus is just a LEGO Friends horse with added wings and fantasy printing. You could presumably just use the wings on a classic LEGO horse just as easily. Granted, they won't be as secure with just a single clip instead of a double clip, and most classic LEGO horses have printed bridles that might look inappropriate on a pegasus in certain contexts. doesn't show us much we haven't already seen, but I figure I'll share it anyhow.

Hive Posted January 30, 2015 Posted January 30, 2015 (edited) After initially being somewhat repulsed upon learning the true nature of this "Friends 2.0: Elves" theme, I'm beginning to warm up to some of the sets. I think I'll be getting at least the ship and the tree top set for sure, perhaps even a couple more of the sets - since my gf really digs the colours and brick assortment of this theme. The ship, I'll rebuild into something usable for Castle - and the tree top set, when modified, will function as my poor man's version of the Ewok Village. Edited January 30, 2015 by Hive Quote
Dorayaki Posted January 30, 2015 Posted January 30, 2015 Hmpf, they seem to work hard to ensure that the animals can only be used in friends/elves. That pegasus is way too cute. Not all animals from minidolls themes work with minifigures, but as for horses, I think they're fine. Quote
Lordofdragonss Posted January 30, 2015 Posted January 30, 2015 I saw Aira's Sleigh box catalogue picture in my local shop. It's quite big and long, has TWO Pegasi with white wings and azure-blue baby dragon! Quote

Aanchir Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 Elves set pics are now on cache.LEGO.com. However, there are not many of them, and for some bizarre reason, some of them are preliminary and have confidential stamps... why would images with confidential stamps even be on the site? o_O 41071 Main Alt1 41072 Main Alt1 41073 Main Alt1 41074 Main Alt1 41075 Main Alt1 41076 Main Alt1 Quote

just2good Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 There's a new polybag coming in March! Quote
---Vertea--- Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 These are probably the best fantasy sets I've seen in a long time. I enjoy my epic set pieces, and battles, and ogres and knights and such.... but boy is it refreshing to get something a little more whimsical. Plus, this is probably the closest we'll get to an MLP aesthetic, and that's mighty fine. Now if only they'd stop using those goofy animal molds.... They don't have to be silly looking to be cute, and I think it's a darn shame that they fall utterly out of style with traditional minifigures. But now I'm just nitpicking. These sets are gorgeous, and I want them all. There's a new polybag coming in March! That's effing adorable, BTW Quote
Aanchir Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 There's a new polybag coming in March! http://i.imgur.com/w4Uinfl.png This looks great, but I've never heard of anybody roasting an apple over a fire like that. Also, that's quite the typo. "Azaris's". Quote
CM4Sci Posted January 31, 2015 Author Posted January 31, 2015 Anyone save them? They were replaced with the final ones. Quote
Cloveapple Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 This looks great, but I've never heard of anybody roasting an apple over a fire like that. http://www.tasteofhome.com/simple---delicious-magazine/easy-campfire-cooking# Apparently, it's camping food. Quote
blarghiflargh Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 41075 seems to have the technic tank tread 3873 in brown. Might be useful for steam punk projects? Does that sea green decorative fence piece also in 41075 come in any other colors or is it new? So many great parts in that set... really imaginative build too. Quote
Peppermint_M Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 I suppose that in a land without tinfoil you have to roast it on a stick! That polybag is very nice. I think I'll have to buy something at the LEGO store. Quote
Aanchir Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 http://www.tasteofho...mpfire-cooking# Apparently, it's camping food. Huh! You learn something new every day! Does that sea green decorative fence piece also in 41075 come in any other colors or is it new? It's new, but it's also available in Warm Gold in 41074 and in Lavender in 41078 (one of the summer sets). Quote
