The chronometer or treasure chest have anything to do with the Endurance, Lego just wants your points back. They are pretty weak for the price imo

thanks I haven’t read up on endurance lol so thought they were related that helps save me some money not sure about chronometer but no treasure chest for me.  I like the barracuda seas and tic tac toe

The Chronometer was a key instrument used for navigation on the voyage.  The treasure chest has nothing to do with the story AFAIK and neither does the Barracuda. For me this is a day 1 purchase to get the GWP lifeboat with minifigures more so than the set itself, and I don’t want to pay reseller prices. Not sure how the lifeboat will do in the aftermarket because not sure how much crossover there will be or will it just be another Jane Goodall set.

It doesn’t say “the chronometer from the Endurance” but we can surely pretend, that’s what toys are all about.

Good amount of stores across the US have very little of the 2 GWP's for this weekend.  They were all sent first weekend and usually they hold half for preview weekend and half for BF-CM when they do that but most burnt through the majority of their allotment from good sales so this weekend will be mostly without those 2.

I'm looking to make all my purchases late tomorrow night to ensure I get the stacking GWPs with all my orders.

Future GWP coming out at the end of the year or first of the year i believe

 

 

 

Need this small box Snake and then Horse (in 2026) to complete the 12 set. Missed the large box Snake when it was available, and it doesn't look like they ever did Year of the Horse?

Unfortunately not, but the parts seem to only be available in pricey sets like Rivendell and Shadow Box but yes you can BL the Minifigures not sure about the rest of the set. The legs and the hats are common but here are the heads and torsos:

This guy seems to agree with you about McNish, but interesting to learn he was insubordinate and to say the journey wouldn’t have been successful without Shackelton is like saying you could voyage on The Love Boat without this guy 🤣
