Darth_Raichu Posted April 12, 2023 Share Posted April 12, 2023 I thought 4th tile was a depiction of looking at Saturn from the surface of 1 of its moons. Then I read the blog article and decided that #4 might need a bit more explanation for most people Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheOrcKing Posted April 12, 2023 Share Posted April 12, 2023 Magnificent simplicity, and very little changed from the original submission aside from the additional fourth backdrop of a blackhole. The usage of Synthwave in the second trailer was very nice reminding me of Dynatron. (Aeternus is still a fantastic album.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it is kind of out of place, at least to my eyes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mathew Posted April 12, 2023 Share Posted April 12, 2023 I’m usually a fan of this kind stuff but it doesn’t work for me as Lego. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Jedi Posted April 12, 2023 Share Posted April 12, 2023 Man, I'm saving money left and right today. First that Little Mermaid set, and now this. I predict perma-discounts in the future of this one. I guess we should applaud TLG for trying new things...I just wish they ran them past me first. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mathew Posted April 12, 2023 Share Posted April 12, 2023 (edited) Anyone else sick of the “lifestyle environment” product photos? This one especially looks fake. That little telescope on the shelf won’t see anything beyond the neighbors house. The Peter Pan model almost looks cgi Edited April 12, 2023 by Mathew 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just not worthy of an Ideas set. Looks like an Etsy product or something made to be sold at a craft show. Generic in its simplicity.

Darth_Raichu Posted April 14, 2023 Share Posted April 14, 2023 They should have not added the 4th / green tile and set MSRP for the 3 at $35. I'd buy those 3 as a set on sale ($27 or below)... This set looks more like an "impulse buy" type instead of "must have" so should have been priced accordingly (IMHO of course) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aup27 Posted April 14, 2023 Share Posted April 14, 2023 Surprised they didnt have each tile be a gift with purchase instead. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably licensing / agreement problem? Can LEGO accept one IDEAS submission and break it down to 3 separate sets on release ? The agreement seems to indicate LEGO can modify an idea to great length (ie. Foosball table), but does it cover breaking an idea to 3 different sets ? ETA: probably the answer is as simple as when LEGO accept a submission, they give it 1 set number. If they break the idea to 3 then they have to add 2 more LEGO numbers. They probably wouldn't / couldn't do that once the (re-)design began. Edited April 14, 2023 by Darth_Raichu ETA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
