BBT - yes!

At least the next Idea review sets are cool.

Yes indeed. They could make them all and they'd sell well. I hope the Hubble makes it - I'm a sucker for space sets!!

Disappointed in the choices. As a real nerd I can't stand Big Bang Theory. The next batch of projects looks promising though Wall-E has to be the odds on favorite.

bring on ghostbusters headquarters.

 

They can't seem to sell the ambulance so I doubt it's garage is gonna do much better.

Not really liking either of these. Pretty disappointed.

As collectors, I agree.

As resellers, I think the BBT set will be extremely popular. The birding community is pretty niche and intense, I wonder how many of them are Lego fans. If that number is significant - this set does well.

agree with both posts.  (i wonder if a larger set like wayne maner would ever be selected).

 

Not sure if the Birds Project or Big Bang Theory will have huge "retail" demand like previous Ideas / CUUSOO sets. I doubt it but they could both great sleepers in the secondary market (sorta like what RI set has done to-date).

Is RI a sleeper?

I think the bird will surprise everyone just like RI did. BBT will have a place on my shelf right next to Ecto.

Is RI a sleeper?

 

 

yes, major sleeper when it was released.  nearly everyone was too busy buying Exo sets....

why else would a $20 set jump to $100 before retirement (note : i think it's closer to $70 now since more arrived at lego stores last month but we can discuss that in the RI thread) .

Is RI a sleeper?

 

more like an almost done chicken or big bubble like the 41999 was...

 

(It's top dollar now, but will likely be quite ho-hum in the long term once the excitement fades)

Yeah, I can see the birds being a limited edition set that will fly off the shelves once resellers catch wind that it could be the next RI.  I'll be waiting for Ornithologists everywhere to contact LEGO complaining that they can't find this set in stores and then the eventual NYT article which will increase the secondary market prices even more.

Both are kind of meh for my personal collection. I did not get that vibe I got the first time I laid my eyes on RI as far as investment

From watching the video it sounds like they're still trying to work out the licensing for one of the Dr. Who sets so there may be another release this go round.

For the next round I think the light sabers and Huble have the best shot.

They need to have an episode where Sheldon is building that set, or just have one randomly placed in the apartment.

Dumb and dumber.

Ah ah that's what I thought, so it will be some kind of mise en abyme (I'm surprised this french expression does exist in english, like "rendez-vous")

bazinga!

The birds set will be a huge winner - way better investment that the big bang theory set.

I'm a fan of birds and the bird set still doesn't do anything for me   They're nicely built and all, but...meh.

It may not really matter which set is better, but which set is more limited.  

Big Bang Theory?  That's a pass on wanting.

Birds it is OK.

I will sell both but would only consider owning the birds.

 

The next series I hope they come out with most all of them there are some incredible ones.

 

Love the UCS AT AT.  Doubt it will happen but want it to.

It may not really matter which set is better, but which set is more limited.  

 

There's no way they're going to make a Big Bang Theory set and underproduce it.

Ugh...can't say that I don't like the Birds set completely...it's kind of cool. But really bummed that the BTTF train didn't make it (I guess it all depends on what your nerd fancy is...)
