Val-E Posted August 26, 2015 Author Share Posted August 26, 2015 Yeah, no large sets and it´s kind of the last hurrah. Late 2013 early 2014 was the chima golden era. Intersting to see so much support for the Ninjago Exclusive..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ciglione Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 How could I forget to add 24 Hr Race Car to my 2015 like list? It is awesome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZULU Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 Good:Ferris Wheel (let' s hope they can continue the theme longer than 5 yrs without re-releases ;-))Tie Fighter (iconic - best SW ship ever)All new modulars. All MF seriesSimpsons QEMRespect for the new Ninjago exclusive. First time I would be tempted to pick one of this theme up.Bad:Elves (looks too much like playmobile)Scoobidoo (would've been better to pay for a better licence - mansion looks nice though)BBT (ovbiously, even though I got one)Birds (I don't want to showcase them for a reason)WVToyShop (terrible choice)Friends (for turning into something very stereotyped / some sets borderline "vulgar")In the end the balance is positive even though WVTS was a true bummer.

Val-E Posted August 27, 2015 Author Share Posted August 27, 2015 How could I forget to add 24 Hr Race Car to my 2015 like list? It is awesome!It´s one of two sets I have bought for myself so far this year but I still prefer the Arocs and limited my likes to 5! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Val-E Posted August 27, 2015 Author Share Posted August 27, 2015 Thanks for the opinions. It is always useful to see what people think about sets from a non investment potential as it could suggest what will be in demand from future dark ages afols.Seems Birds is one of those love it or hate it sets but enough loves makes it worth following.
