So the year is pretty much done in terms of sets to be released that haven´t been leaked - Hoth Exclusive is the main exception.
What sets that came out in 2105 have grabbed your attention in a good or bad way and why?
Here, in no particular order, are my top 5 good and bad ones:
Good.
42043 Mercedes. Pneumatics, record parts content and outstanding use of Lego to create an accurate and complex workingmodel. What many AFOLs have been waiting for.
60095 Boat. I love the shipwreck and the storytelling element to this set. It really stands out from run-of-the-mill City remakes.
750093. Final duel. Good to see a new OT set that isn´t a spaceship. Again, the storyteling element is fundamental.
70751 Temple of Airjitzu This is what the F40 could have been. Detail, size and a shot in the arm for the theme.
75104 MF. Xmas wouldn´t be the same for reselleres without an MF to flip!
Bad.
10248 F40. Not a bad set but it has only served to disappoint those who were looking for a bigger, more detailed set.
41543 Turg. Lego´s Donald Trump prize for P.R. goes to the byline for this model.
10249 Toy Shop. Haven´t I seen you somewhere before?
76035 Jokerland Yet another overhyped and overpriced Batman set. Messy execution, the sum is not greater than the parts.
21302 Big Bang. It´s just a baseplate and a wall. Ok, there are minfigs and printed parts too, but I don´t get it. Seems I am in the minority when sales are taken into account!
