Val-E Posted August 22, 2017 Posted August 22, 2017 (edited) Only 2 new sets for 1HY 2018; 21038 Las Vegas and 21039 Shanghai skylines. Edited August 22, 2017 by Val-E 1 Quote
Will 4 Posted August 22, 2017 Posted August 22, 2017 Shanghi sounds intresting Vegas not so much. Its a shame they seem so short on ideas with so many places they could do. Quote

My 5 year old asked, "where the clown hotel was." Quote
Val-E Posted December 29, 2017 Author Posted December 29, 2017 According to Hoth Bricks, Las Vegas set has been pulled indefinitely for political reasons (the shooting). Quote

Shewie Posted January 5, 2018 Posted January 5, 2018 Why not 99.99? The price inflation is getting ridiculous.https://shop.lego.com/en-GB/Shanghai-21039 Quote

calmdahn Posted January 5, 2018 Posted January 5, 2018 Ah that does look sweet. But yeah clearly could be a political problem with Mandalay Bay right there. Man, I want to see the rest of that “confidential” book that capture is from. Sent from my iPhone using Brickpicker Forum mobile app Quote

They still released the Brandenburg Gate where there was carnage in the WW2 Battle of Berlin. I think LEGO should show resilience and release Las Vegas regardless. Millions will still be going to Las Vegas and the Mandalay Bay Hotel is quite in your face a few minutes after you drive from the airport, you can't miss it. Even if it is released in small quantities initially and then redesigned, the first version will be as gold as the hotel itself. I'm not winding you all up, it's my 2p worth and life has to go on, right? Quote

Shewie Posted January 5, 2018 Posted January 5, 2018 They are afraid of massive backlash, they are only and always playing safe card, definitely they'll try to avoid situation being placed between Dove Soap and Pepsi with Kardashians. Quote
Val-E Posted January 5, 2018 Author Posted January 5, 2018 Pretty much all the recent city sets are places that have had terror attacks, I guess if it happens after release they don´t do anything. They´ll wait 6-9 months and put it out in the summer. 2 Quote

dcdfan Posted January 5, 2018 Posted January 5, 2018 Curious they didn´t do the same with Capitol building when there was that stand-off and shooting before they released that set. Wee bit different. Quote
Will 4 Posted January 5, 2018 Posted January 5, 2018 What about Chicago when it was the murder capital? Quote
dcdfan Posted January 5, 2018 Posted January 5, 2018 What about Chicago when it was the murder capital?Yeah. No. Just me & The Leader of the Free World seem to care. Quote
