And also a Hordika foot.

Where is this foot used on the set?

You would be surprised how many characters have feet in this set

it seems it has an axle at the end and a pin hole in the middle
it could be a really useful piece for mocs

Purple bat ears!
Those’ll certainly come in handy for my… projects :goo:

Also a very interesting cauldron thing with galidor sockets on either end. Looks like it could work well as part of a custom torso

the set actually uses it that exact way, it’s easier to see in this version of the creature build

looks to have a line going down the middle too, so it might actually be two pieces…

A few of the sets also have this new faceplate piece with 318 connection points on the front

Perfect! I love anything with working pistons. Some of my favorite parts of all time.

That mech looks dope I wanna build that

And honestly, with all the white and gold and the axle pistons, I see SCCBS Titan Takanuva potential here

The Ford Raptor 42126 from 2021 uses sockets and balls to build the hinged back flap.

Heh, my older brother got this set for Christmas and when he saw those, he immediately went to me and said “this counts as Bionicle because it has ball and socket joints.”

ok so update on that cauldron piece, it’s actually just a hollow shell that wraps around a standard ratchet joint element.

At least it’s an interesting shape though, and it’s gunmetal, I’ll always happily take more pearl colored pieces.

These aren’t necessarily constraction pieces, but I thought I’d mention them. The new Wednesday buildable doll has introduced the Exo Force claws and the bar holders (that I’ve seen MOC builders use as fingers) in Warm Tan (BrickLink calls it Medium Tan). The Glinda buildable doll in the Wicked double pack has these same pieces, likely in light nougat. The Gru set already mentioned in this topic also has the claw pieces in light nougat

Double pistons on the ankles is absolutely crazy. Using the Dune ornithopter blade as a sword is also something I wouldn’t have ever expected to see in an official set.

Mentioned this in LWIJG a while back but somehow never posted it here. The Technic buggy 42164 features two black CCBS add-ons on its spoiler!
