should be a great time to buy get Steamboat Willie and House 4 at $250 but everything I want to buy is so much cheaper at other stores not sure what’s worth buying at Lego.  Any suggestions ?

I brought my daughter to the Lego store the other night and I noticed they still had the pirate GWP so got her the Dreamzzz Pegasus, some build-em minifigs, and I got the Giant lego dude which is a Lego exclusive, so get five of those and make the weirdest army. :D https://www.lego.com/en-us/product/up-scaled-lego-minifigure-40649

I just went with a few orders to get the Steamboat at $100 buy in not bad. I had a lot of VIP points to burn from the 2X and there is 5% CB from Retail Me Not.

The Majisto will be the same one that is in the Lion Knight Castle unfortunately with no printing there will also be a female Dragon Knight minifigure. 
 

Also, there will be a cheap yellow box microscale castle available for VIP points. 

Steps on to pedestal.

Why the female figure? They could at least offer the option by including two heads. I don’t want to seem petty about this, but I feel like LEGO either does no market research on what Castle fans tend to desire, or they do the research and then decide to just ignore it entirely. Hopefully Dragon Knight molds show up on the PAB store online.

Why does a female minifig make that big of a difference to you?

Here is Lego's response on woman minifigures being included in Eldorado Fortress: 

NOT my review...

Another set with too many wamen

Come on guys, stop with the wamen in sets that historically don't have them. Sailors were not wamen, naval leadership was not wamen. Stop with the lies.

Thanks for sharing your feedback about the Eldorado Fortress and the minifigures we've included. Representation in toys is incredibly important and play has a big impact on children. Sets such as this one are designed for play and aren't meant to be historically correct. Our goal is to inspire kids through playful learning—this is a responsibility we take very seriously. We’ll continue developing and inspiring the builders of tomorrow by making our toys more inclusive so that everyone playing can see themselves in their LEGO® adventures.

It isn’t really an issue with a female minifigure. I really like the execution with the Forest Hideout remake. If they make the legs and torso transferable to being able to use a male head and add a helmet I’ll be all good with it. I just have doubts that will be the case.

Again, hopefully they make the PAB online and I can just make a bunch of custom knights.

I actually like the execution of this set with having women involved as they aren’t the only option. That being said, their response is a bit off considering it’s an 18+ set and is mostly advertised as a display piece. If they really felt the way they do they would be launching diverse more affordable small sets in classic themes.

Probably a canned response.
