From what I know nothing has changed in regards to the availability of this set
(and the following VIP "Add On" sets). So it is still a test product only available
to selected VIP members in the UK. But it does exist and many are for sale on
Ebay, so there is no reason why it should not have an entry on BL.

They have been doing the trials in the UK but no word yet whether this one or
others will be more widespread.
Even if it remains as a UK only trial, it is a valid LEGO product (like any regional
item such as bricktober or comic con) so not surprising it is in the catalogue.

Tip: you don't have to buy all sets. If you don't like them, don't
buy them.

If you’re asking if all four were sold under a different set number I do not
know. This helps explain why I have so many extra minifigs from this era.
I know I had 6803, 6823 and 6842, but that last one doesn’t look familiar at
all. I distinctly remember 6823 because it was the first time I’d gotten that
“box”, the swivel and those “lunar tires”. For 8-year-old me this was a huge
advancement over the older sets I had which were mostly red, blue, yellow and
white 2x4 bricks.

It'll be interesting to see how it unfolds. Mega has only ever released
Sesame Street stuff for the youngest target audience, so I'd guess that they
never held the license for minifig-scale stuff. They used to sell a number of
Disney Princess sets in that larger scale, too, even when LEGO had its own license.
And of course Mega still carried the license for Sony's Spider-Man films,
even after losing the MCU license.
It's a weird and cyclical and overlapping and redundant world sometimes!

The one Sesame Street set is not intended for little kids. It is intended for
grownup who loved Sesame Street when they were little.

It doesn't look like a set a small child can build, even those who are ready

As others have said, LEGO has never had the license. It could be that they do
now and are making plans. Or it could be that they only got limited license
for an adult collectible.

Dora the Explorer is another one where MEGA first had the license and then LEGO
got it. I have sets from both.
The MEGA set came with some really cool track pieces, that line up really well
with the LEGO DUPLO brick runner track pieces, which align well with regular
DUPLO bricks.

Yeah... interscaleability has been a problem for lego always. E.g. the very first
"brick people" were approximately 8 cm high but the doors about 2 cm! The old
figures, minifigures, duplo figures, fabuland, jack jones, you name it their
scale does not match. There are probably a lot more examples.
|
I really like the Fabuland scale. The older Mickey Mouse sets were Fabuland
scale, so I built my Disneyland Fire station to that scale, to go with the Fire
Fighter Mickey Mouse figure. Then after I built to that scale LEGO came out
with Mickey Mouse (and friends) in regular LEGO scale (and Duplo scale).

It's an IDEAS set. There would have been outrage if they took a system based

| I noticed that LEGO sells a Sesame Street set. I am a bit disappointed that
this is not done in Duplo scale. I think it would be awesome if they came out
with some Sesame street themed sets in Duplo scale.
Is Sesame Street popular with adults and older children?

| Hope to see a Le Mans inspirered car in the near future. It would be a great
way to celebrate that the 100 year anniversary of the famous race is coming up.
Also it could put focus on electrical cars which will be introduced as a class
for itself in Le Mans.

less costly Collectible Minifigure?
Or maybe it’s the concern that adding SW to the Collectible Minifigure Series

Then there’s the limited number of available popularized-through-movie characters

I think you are over medicated

Although seeking excuses seems more n’more the way to live one’s life, I can’t
use that one. Haven’t “medicated” in years, beyond the occasional aspirin my
daughter pushes on me. No longer even what’s prescribed for the brain injury
I sustained as a young man overseas.
“Clear your mind, your ass will follow” Not always easy, but well worth doing.
Sadly Kevin, this is the unadulterated me, scrambled brains and all

| I have heard this issue before but that would not explain poly bags like this:
This poly bag was officially sold by TLG and was just one minifig. This would
violate that Hasbro issue if true? Idk
I would love a SW CMF series and I hope the MCU CMF does well in sales so it
will give TLG motivate to make a new series for SW. Especially since all these
new Disney+ SW shows are coming out in 2022! It would be a perfect run off of
the MCU Disney+ shows CMF!

Hasbro has aggressively defended their right to be the only seller of Star Wars
action figures. That's why the battle packs have to include some sort of

PG partout (parts only): €676.16 (6-mo) / €866.87 (for sale)
Auto-select WL in EU: €663 (all the parts), it can certainly be optimized but
retail is €250 (so BL = 2.7x-3.5x retail), I doubt anyone could beat that on
BL buying parts.
Could be interesting if you don’t live near a LEGO store… and are interested
in the parts (that means mainly the 16x16 bricks and the 1x1s).

At a guess, using the BL image and part count, the set consists of 40* 16x16

Thanks! I have a smaller mosaic and there are quite a few plates on the back
to hold it together, so I'd guess closer to 100-150 parts plus studs.
