    No, the shapes and details of the old set don’t match up to the leak.

    Ironically, despite knowing you in the TF community for some years now and greatly admiring your photography, I somehow was not aware that you take photos of your Lego sets.

    YEEEEEEEESSSSSS!!!!
    I'm so happy that this is happening. Especially in the Creator line. Hopefully Lego continues and releases other classic themed sets like Castle and Space into Creator. Also, with the Ideas Pirate Bay coming out eventually, this would be a perfect compliment to it.

    Can't wait to see what the alternate builds are!

    LEGO City Adventures looks like a pretty solid show. It's no Ninjago, but it's got that LEGO charm to it.

    It's his signature post-ender. Maz is classy like that.

    I'm excited for the Pirate ship. I almost completely missed out on the 2009 pirates sets (I did buy that raft with the octopus), was too broke to invest in the Pirates of the Caribbean sets when they came out, and wasn't old enough for LEGO back during the classic Pirates theme in 1994 (I would've been two going on three years old at the time)

    Looking back at my T-FP03 JUDGEMENT starfighter MOC a few pages back where I'm interested in building the supposed support drone unit and (probably) another weapon wear configuration, that's what I'm doing for a few days ago...

    IMG_20200203_092744.jpg

    With some Stud Shooter pieces and some "Brick 1x1 with 4 Knobs", I built 6 funnels (Loosely based on the Funnel weapons from the Gundam franchise) which are a part of the 3rd wear weapon configuration alongside some beam cannons:

    IMG_20200203_092809.jpg

    The starfighter itself equipped with all the parts of the 3rd wear weapon configuration, where all of the 6 funnels can attack multiple enemies starfighters simultaneously in different directions as well as defending the starfighter itself from attacks from different directions:

    IMG_20200203_093212.jpg
    IMG_20200203_093252.jpg

    The targets for the funnels are confirmed by the starfighter's pilot as well as some basic maneuvers, while the highly advanced AI within the support droid unit will handle the more complex maneuvers and calculate the coordinations of the funnels for the most optimal performance:

    The support droid unit can also be mounted with all of the armaments for each of the wear weapons configurations to provide quick configuration changes for the starfighter itself, as well as able to fight by itself and provide support firepower for the starfighter itself:

    Yep. A haunted castle with ghosts and Lady E, if rumors are to be believed.

    Lego hasn't done any good medieval sets in ages. That's why I bought Enlighten Brick. :p 
    View attachment 28524172 View attachment 28524171 [/QUOTE]

    Those look pretty cool, but how is the quality? I have seen some great looking concepts from Enlighten, but the quality on knock off Legos is always so hit and miss.

    Did anybody see the Super Bowl commercial for Lego Masters? I'm kind of exited for it on Wednesday.

    Shrek is really unexpected. Then again, don't they plan on rebooting the movies soon? Could coincide with that.

    It's a fake leak someone posted a few days ago to troll the #legoleaks tag.
