Do you really think elementary school kids are going to stop reading harry potter because of trans issues?

Maybe some school teachers or school librarians will try to keep the books out of the schools.

I live in the bay area and haven't seen any less harry potter stuff on shelves than before.

But there's a reboot TV show in the works.

We'll have to wait and see I guess. I'm not really into Harry Potter so :shrug:

gently caress transphobes, btw.

I’m pretty sure if it gets made at all, Warner will sell it to a public access TV station in Pierre, South Dakota in exchange for 38 bottle caps and a Lunchables instead of air it, so at least we have that going for us.

I saw a mustang SUV the other day and was very confused. I screamed at the clouds and told some kids to get off my lawn then I remembered that mustangs suck so I didn't really care.

Mustangs are awesome but I had the SUV and it sucked so I sold it.

I've been building the JAZZCLUB in studio and I came across something weird. In step #42 you build a small bracket assembly for the side wall near the ticket window. It's similar but not identical to the attachment points for the lights and as far as I can tell never gets used. What is it for?

Been a while since I built it, but it might have something to do with the stage setup.

Nah it's in the other corner. The stage ends up going just on the right of that image near the technic brick and black L-shaped tile.

I kinda want the GWPs that are out now but can't find $150 of stuff that is exclusive and in stock that I want. I considered the concorde but $200 seems a bit high for it when I am sure it will be $160 sooner rather than later. Also, impossible to display.

Best I could gather was that it’s a spot to hold the bass case when not on the back of the bassist.

The Audi Sport Quattro S1 kit was fantastic and they should do more 80s/90s rally cars.

They did a really great evolution of rally cars, going from the generic city themed one to the Ford Fiesta WRC speed champion, to the masterstroke of the Audi Quattro S1 speed champion. At that point I vowed to collect all further speed champion rally cars...

Then they stopped making any more :negative:

The Quattro S1 e-tron does look pretty cool, and it would look kind of neat contrasted against the old S1... But it's a fancy concept car, not a rally car.

Pay Fiat the licensing rights and give me a dang Lancia 037 set :mad:

Carbs did some instructions for a Delta S4 (in 8 wide!) which is one of my prized possessions. I also have his mod of someone else’s Stratos design which is superb.

But hell yes give me a creator expert 037. I prefer the Alitalia livery but martini or wurth are also acceptable.

On a more serious note I think if they just did all the Group B cars SC style maybe in a couple 2 packs they’d sell well.

I see a City polybag with the same SPACE branding as those new Technic sets - are those Technic sets going to accomodate minifigs in some way?

The Creator line posted above uses the same branding for a brick-built astronaut figure. Maybe it’s an experiment in creating a theme that spans product lines?

The 31146-Flatbed-Truck-with-Helicopter is a straight mash up of the old Model Team 5571-Giant-Truck for the truck, and 5590-Whirl-and-Wheel-Super-Truck for the trailer and helicopter.

In addition to all looking the same irl, the often delicate and intricate bodywork just straight up does not translate to Lego at that scale.
