My inbox is drowning. I can't keep you from posting it here. The mods are on top of things as much as we can be, but sometimes it can take 2 or 3 minutes before someone can remove photos that aren't supposed to be posted. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has something been officially released? thank you Although there are no official pictures out, there's enough information out there posted on other sites that suggest that this set name/number is accurate and will be released to VIPs on September 15, with a general release on October 1. Heck, I believe it enough that I'm posting a countdown pic every day! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kris_1973 Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 Goodness that is terrible... I had to put 75159 and 10188 side-by-side to start the complicated "One of these things is not like the other one" game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weitzel78 Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 3 minutes ago, LahH001 said: Could this actually be deliberate by Lego given the leaks that have occurred with the recent releases meaning that Lepin are able to have their own versions out before the Lego official releases? There is some chatter that the actual version is a combination display and play set. Given that Lego monitor fan forums it would not have been hard for them to just make people think that they are doing what many people think they will do i.e a refresh with some updated mini figures only by leaking such an image. Why the initial release of kiss the set no and piece count and then another pic a day later with the pic of the set but no piece count. Given the backlash from AOH and the increased price surely they're not that's stupid? Just speculation and wishful thinking on my part.

Darth_Raichu Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 What a sad affair. I suspected as much earlier this year, but actually seeing it stirred so much disappointment. I thought there were the A team of designers and B team at LEGO. Now I am convinced there is a C team as well 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mfortunek Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 In all seriousness my heart goes out to those of you who stocked up on 10188. It was a sound move. It should have worked. The 10188 should have been a great investment for several years. I bought three 10188s, for average buy in of $373. I sold one for $580 and still have the other two. I feel like someone just dropped a tortoise on my balls. I can't imagine how those of us who are sitting on 10 or 20 of these feel. Or God forbid, emazers quantities... Speaking of emazers, has anyone heard from him? Maybe we ought to conduct a knock-and-talk? Just to make sure he doesn't need to be on suicide watch or anything? 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
