Kind of wish Lego did do religious stuff so we could finally see a Jesus v Beatles popularity contest. It´s been pending for more than 50 years.

I agree, some of the churches and cathedrals would make amazing sets. Of course, LEGO shy away from sensitive subjects.

BTW... Who's Jesus? ;-)

I think City signed him during the Summer, but sent him straight out on loan

There's a Dutch website still hosting/showing the leaked GeekTree pictures, in case anyone is looking for them...  

I think the box look very psychedelic. Also noticing the use of the new 'macaroni' curved tube brick as you can see in this detail:

Interesting!

Sagrada familia.
Now that would make a builders challenge

Get me some official pics...in the meantime, I've updated the top post with a couple pics from the submission.

I was wondering how long it would take for a little wrist slapping. ;-) Glad I saw the box art though.

 Pictures can easily be found of the Box (which  is gorgeous!!) Along w that surprise minifigure too! Freakin Awesome!!

Looks great, must say the Ideas theme is probably my favourite.

It's certainly the theme that I'm the most heavily invested in right now.

Big Beatles fan - This will be fun.

It looks like they did a great job improving on the original submission.

I love this set! As an IDEAS fan, and Beatles fan, this is a win. It's a buy regardless, I have one NISB of all the IDEAS sets. I actually don't have Shinkai 6500, I'm not sure if that counts since there was no US release? I hate having one short of the complete collection, even if it's an asterisk. 

The box looks absolutely phenomenal and display worthy. The close-up of the minifigures looks promising. There's even sideprinting on the legs!

Not a Beatles fan so I am curious if they spend money on frivolous things like a LEGO set?  We know TBBT fans in general are not into LEGO  

Any Beatles fans will LOVE this, but don't take my word for it, I love the Beatles...regardless, this will now set the bar on hoardable sets...

This Beatles set will be widely popular. Good qfll potential. Will likely be too hoarded to be much of an investment. 

I'll still buy a bunch...

Same here, I'm also missing the sub. This is the ONLY reason why I'm keeping an Exo-Suit and TBBT set. I've gone in big on some IDEAS sets and the YS will be no exception.

I wish I didn't miss out on 9516 Jabba's Mosque. Won't happen with the Yellow Submarine!

That was a very funny movie and that clip made me smile again - thanks. I may share Jesus' "skill" once every 10,000 trips to my local bowling alley but, I don't like my balls first!

NOV 1ST 60 USD / 60 euros looks like this will do well with the Xmas promo sets.

Edited October 12, 20169 yr by Val-E

That looks incredible and I'm gonna give it some large! Let's hope the limit isn't 1 ;-)

It will be limit 1 and backorder 30 days after a few hours! SAH will be on its knees on Nov 1st. What promo coincides with launch?

This will be so hot that I don't care about any promo! Could this be the best Xmas QFLL to date? I've already asked friends at John Lewis & Smyths to keep an eye out. On the other hand... I would prefer this to be 100% exclusive to LEGO like the MR and RI were.
