About this deal

The Waddlewing’s face is painted on, and the build was pretty fun – I like the confident and cute expression, but would’ve liked it to look fatter. A curved protruding tummy would’ve been nice. Not necessarily. They could simply roll it out because they had planned to, anyway, and cancelling the product would be more expensive then just firing it out. You know, it's not like they are deciding this from month to month or even every half year. Lead-in times for such products can be two years and longer and you wouldn't notice it.

And calling these things loot boxes or akin to gambling is a real stretch. This is the product you’re buying – it’s the intention to be random. If every season had a character as rare as Mr Gold in it, then sure, that is more like loot box odds. You have a chance to get what you want in each case as it is here – not .01% of a chance the character is even in your city let alone the case in front of you. Monkie Kid 80054 Megapolis City: 10 Reasons That This Middle-Aged AFOL Is Excited! November 7, 2023Ever since 1958, LEGO® components have met strict industry standards to ensure they are consistent and compatible for a simple, secure connection every time. I don’t know why they couldn’t just make sure the list of names matched up with the characters in the lineup photo. The yellow action stands and the trans-yellow hand-lightning are the only two parts that immediately draw my interest, but does Crowber come with a new color of base to represent sky?

Series 5 flips the script, and sees LEGO moving the format from 10-character sets, to 8-character complete sets, as well as introduces slightly larger and detailed models, but the big change is the shift from plastic blind bags to these small boxes. This feels like its encouraging an element of gambling, which I don’t believe is compatible with LEGO’s values, especially as these are aimed at kids. It also makes people more likely to buy more and more to get the characters they want, which encourages waste. Anyway, here’s a look at the Waddlewing that I got. It’s quite a neat build at the very least, with a much larger base, and I was also happy to get these new-ish vine pieces, and a cloud plate. Maybe Huw can add a filter by country to the number of members owning the set such that when displaying the search result, the number of members owning the set from a particular country can be seen. Having just got the starter set, I can see the appeal for people- my 4yr old adores Mario and making him “courses” bouncing on baddies etcBeing able to feel for the character I’ve wanted has been a rarity in recent releases as stores have stopped selling them altogether or moved them to behind the counter and you have to ask for them. I was a PlayStation, Xbox and for a brief period had a Dreamcast. Received a GameCube in a trade once, only because I wanted to play Resident Evil: Code Veronica. And I did. A lot. Other than that I barely touched it. I seem to be one of the few people who wasn’t all that into Nintendo products growing up.
