2009 NEW PICS!

Postby meschepers » Tue Aug 19, 2008 11:10 pm

I hope no one's head(s) explode with this: (NOT A HOAX!)

Includes Creator, City, Racers, and PIRATES!

Actually, out of classiness (by my own decision) I am removing the link to said brickshelf page. I did not originally discover this so no credit to me, I am just a messenger.

*edited again*

With permission from Yoda himself I will post the link here. Hopefully it will be up long enough for everyone to get a few good looks!

Really tks mate for finding the link !! Click me ASAP

So some of the rumours were true after all ;)

Farming sets are astounding !! Look how great are the cows and tractors !! I am very impressed I have to say and I look forward to them with much anticipation !!

Those pirate sets look great but are not that innovative to me I have to say. Don't get me wwrong I am so happy about their return and the return of fiireing canons and what have you but I wanted some fantasy elements: I don't call the new shark or red ocopus to be fantasy really !!

The Mfs are superb (mama mia check that wench !!) and some new parts are great especially the telescope part used for firing canon as well !!

There are loads of dark blue, dark red and pearl gold there which is great !! Its a very promissing theme !!

I a not that impressed wuith the construction sets: they are way better than the old ones thats for sure but I don't really have the use for them, and the racers and creator I don't care ;)

2009 ROCKS already :geek:

Now i'm glad to see pirates back too, but i was hoping for more of a fantasy feel to them. Still they are great for those long time fans who wanted them back thats for sure, im just getting a real deja vu feel from what i have seen.

The other new sets look good also, though most is not for me.

FARM!

I think I have a new favorite theme :idea:

I'm now furiously left-click-saving just in case the pics vanish

I'd suggest the rest of you do the same...especially if Space Police and Star Wars appear

Already done :evil:

And assuming that space theme is true it won't be released before june anyway so it might be a while before we get pics, like Castle ;)

Lets hope that guy posts more pics asap !!

And feel free to discuss the pirate pics in our new dedicated forum: Walk the Plank (shameless auto promotion ON :D )

wow...those are really good. another stella year for lego. all the farm machines and construction machines look so good. pirates look good too. especially the return of the plumes and epaulettes! wheee!

too bad my budget is limited so i can't get everything. especially not when i'm in sydney with the ridiculous prices. i'm not going to start with farm. :-/ may get a set with cows in it though...for my castle theme.

any castle pics? will there be castle sets? i hope they give up on some themes, i can't keep up. SW (massive, massive sets next year! damnit!), city, castle, pirates, indy. getting all the sets would require at least $1000 already. where am i going to find the space and money for anything else.

i fear TLC is expanding way too fast. i doubt the fan base's purchasing power can grow that fast.

Natelite, Castle is not in the first wave of sets ;) We'll have to wait for after may for them I'm afraid !!

But with Pirates, farm and SW, 2009 will start to be costly, damn you TLC :x :D

yeah...especially when they are bring back shooting cannons! i guess all my whining worked! :D gigantic rubber cannon isn't really my cuppa... but this pirate cannon is just the right size for some mf action! i hope they tone down on the power though. wouldn't want them to get sued by some zealous parents when their kids lost an eye. :P

Hush there, that might happen actually :D Well at least in Europe we'll have the firing ones in case something stupid happens in the US :D

I always despised catapults, shooting modern canons in sets these days but that classic canon is something I really love and hoped for its glorious return one day !! They are perfect for war MOCs and what have you, especially having one in a cheap set is really amazing :)

Well the space sets are not a january --> may release so you won't have that in there yet!! Patience my padawan :D
I doubt these are prototypes since the pics come from what really looks like the general release catalogue ;)

That just mean he is adding more pics to his gallery ;) Lets hope for the SW stuff really and for the agents as well if its not a later release like space.
