Hapori Tohu Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 LEGO.com has released a digital catalog (Australian edition) featuring the sets for the second half of 2015! This includes new sets from themes like BIONICLE, Ninjago, Elves, Technic, Minecraft, and Star Wars! There is even a teaser for the Star Wars: The Force Awakens sets coming this September, and although none of those sets are shown, it does give us our first glimpse of the LEGO minifigure version of lovable new droid BB-8!

Vakama35 Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 Am I the only one who noticed how they screwed up Kopaka's image? Quote "Ten thousand futures have I looked at. A hundred thousand.

Lyichir Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 Am I the only one who noticed how they screwed up Kopaka's image?Meh, not an uncommon layout mistake. It's been done many times in both new and classic Bionicle (not to mention other sets and themes entirely). 1 Quote Formerly Lyichir: Rachira of Influence Aanchir's and Meiko's brother Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rooster Nui Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 It's interesting that the front cover features the set 42027: Desert Racer. That set was released more than a year ago. I guess it's just a mistake, like the one Vakama35 and Lyichir were talking about, which also occurred in a previous catalog that came out earlier this year/end of last year. This is probably the catalog that's going to get shipped to me. It's great to see that the release date for the skull villains is August, which I'm pretty sure is the same release date for the U.S. That's unusual...

The cover also features the High Speed Chase set and My First Train Set, both two years old, and and the version of Sensei Wu that appeared only in 2011 sets. However, it's hard to tell whether that's truly a mistake or a case where the cover designers just didn't care about whether the cover used current sets as long as it stuck to current themes.

CaT in Rogue Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 It's good to know the release dates for some of these, as we don't usually get much information about that kind of stuff. Also, that Snow Golem minifigure is still ingenious. Quote "Whether that is right or not...I also...as a Rider...have a wish that I want to fulfill."

Aanchir Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 As an addendum, the US version of this catalog has a short story blurb about the new BIONICLE sets!"Battle the new, evil Skull Warriors to take back the golden masks before they are corrupted! The epic confrontation between good and evil over the Mask of Creation — Mask Maker vs. Skull Grinder — is about to begin. Which side will you choose?" It also includes character bios for some of the new Ninjago characters. Lloyd still doesn't get a signature weapon... 1 Quote Latest MOC: PAIGE (Prototype Artificial Intelligence, Gynoid Expression) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which side will you choose?"By the sounds of that story blurb, the longer the Skull Warriors have the mask, the closer the masks are to becoming fully corrupted. So, there goes a lot of theories regarding that condition of those four Golden Masks of Power. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
