There is a Pirate one but it is only sold at LEGO HOUSE. I think there is a city one too.

The city one is too bland. The driver looks great. Now I'm wondering how long it will be until its a big Harry Potter or Darth Vader rather than a Knight or Astronaut.
 
For my own amusement:

Thanks, man. Adventurers in Egypt is a goated LEGO theme, right up there in the pantheon with Western and Pirates. It's such a shame that almost everything now is licensed, but I guess customers voted with their wallets and that's what won. 6755 is probably my favorite LEGO set ever. I have it in amazing condition, in the box, with intact stickers and everything.

It is overpriced, but Lego seems to be doing just fine with their bricks. I think they are the most profitable toy company in the world.

I'm not questioning it, I'm just stating the obvious fact that they're way, way overpriced. Just look at what you get from a company like Lumibricks. You get a lighting kit, no stickers, tons of prints, and twice the bricks for the same price. It's ridiculous.

That is great, but that is not what this thread is about. If you want to make a thread complaining about Lego do that. If you want to say I found this cool block set from this other company do that. This is a hobby thread.

OMG, don't get triggered because someone criticizes your favorite toy company, are you for real? I have a LEGO room in my house for my kids, but I refuse to be an NPC, lol. If you want every discussion to go exactly the way you want, then talk to yourself in the mirror. What a joke.

I don't think my request is unreasonable. But thanks for the over-reaction.

Lego is expensive yes. Lego has the name brand sets though with the big IP license. plus they give a lot of thought on new pieces and how everything fits together. if you think thats too much money then don't buy it, but they put in a lot of extra work and thought into their product. Go make a ZURU MAX community thread maybe? or a "We think Legos are too expensive!" thread?

I'm the only person who posted any meaningful content in this thread over the past few weeks, so clearly I like LEGO enough. You can like something and still criticize it. But it seems like this thread is exclusively for adult fanboys blindly worshipping a multi-billion dollar toy company. A toy company! Utterly pathetic.

I'm out, don't worry.
 
Just came back from my second trip to LEGOLAND NY.

I've been to NY twice and FL twice.

Let me say that you SHOULD visit LL FL at least once. It's a great place with great entertainment and rides.

LL NY however is a POS. Always Understaffed, almost everything is constantly broken or closed. First time we went half the rides were closed and a few food places.

This time most rides were open and ALL but the main food place were closed. We saw only one character out and that was Santa for Christmas in July. The one show wasn't running and no ice cream anywhere.

Both times which were 4 years apart the rides were so slow to on board and off board with workers slowly fumbling around. I sort of expect that when it first opened but not 4 years after.

Neither park has discounts for the Lego sets sold there. Seems like that would have been a nice perk but no.


So if you want to visit one ( and you should ) go to FL. It a better park with better rides and shows. Better workers and better theming. Staying at the hotel in themed room is also highly recommended.
