This is Bricklinks promised update.
Tldr: The sets that did make it can be ordered again on August 3rd (except Castle). Lego thus adds up to a total of 10000 sets each. Due to a glitch on the website 10000 castle sets were already ordered and will be produced and shiped.

Maximum order quantity in future rounds will be reduced to one and overall quantity raised up to 10000.

I’m a little last posting this, but recently, when the Seinfeld set was revealed, I commented on an Instagram post about how I still felt disappointed that Bionicle got rejected in favor of this. And…well…someone responded with these exact words:

“…reflection, there wasn’t a market. The fandom was * deeply * divided over that set. Some disliked that it was system, some disliked the lack of play features, some disliked that only one side could be displayed at once, some disliked the lack of minifigs, many disliked the price. We were hyped that maybe it could get through Ideas but a lot of the fandom gave it a second thought by the time the BLDP came around. Many realized they didn’t want it. On top of that, it’s a very niche set. Only people who were into the story of Bionicle (a 20 year old theme) would really want it, and many didn’t want it enough for the price.”

So yeah. Even though I really wanted the set to become a reality in some way…I truly hate to admit this, but I must: there’s absolutely no possibility. :cry:

Glad to see that lego finally got around to producing Sokoda’s se…


Hey that’s not right!

Well I suppose the moral of the story is, lego’s marketing data suggests its fans really like microscale dioramas. And lightsabers.

one of those is clearly superior

Thanks, though it’s not really fair to compare the two. LEGO doesn’t make midak skyblasters anymore so the designer was obviously limited. The set designers are learning npu though, look at the telescope warp pipe in the top Mario diorama. The ground around it is still hollow :stuck_out_tongue:
