The bot caught the vouchers. I'm really happy with this thing.

He is like the Fami version of Nintendo Ninjas. He is Belly Ninja.

It gets closed. The Direct discussion is for the thread that will someone make after it's announced.

Hold on, is that legit? They sre bringing Zelda to Lego?

 

[Zumikoi]

I can be your Direct

only if you don't hide your Tears

 

[Tezzor]

seems like there are either two version (unlikely) or you can transform the Dekutree into two forms. One that looks like from BOTW and one OOT.
Maybe this could be some kind of spoiler for the game?

edit: seems i was right
translation from promobricks.de who is the source of this leak.

Let's move on to a set that will probably please many video game fans. Ever since it became known that LEGO had entered into a major partnership with Nintendo, many people have wanted one or more sets for The Legend of Zelda. As the current LEGO leak shows, one such set is already in development at the Danish company.



It is the legendary Deku tree - and even as a 2-in-1 set! The tree can be built in the design of the Ocarina of Time game with green leaves and in the style of Breath of the Wild with predominantly pink leaves. The design of the tree itself also differs fundamentally, so that the leaves are not simply replaced, but the tree has to be built from scratch if you decide to use the other version.



In both cases, however, the tree stands on a black base comparable to the sets of the Diorama Collection, and a tile with a Zelda print is attached to the front. The minifigures included are Link in a green outfit and with mid-length legs, based on his appearance from Ocarina of Time, and Link and Zelda with normal legs and blue outfits, as in Breath of the Wild. In the BotW version of the tree, Maronus can also be built from the parts.



Parts: 1920

Price range: 200 to 325 US dollars

Most likely price: 250 US dollars

 

[Zeal543]

At this rate the entire direct will leak before Feb 8

 

[Kevin]

I'm just excited to see the new epic Deku Tree dungeon shown in the Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom trailer.

 

[totofogo]

ZELDA LEGO!!!

Did I miss anything? Because I dont know of a single leak lol

 

[Pacobob]

The updates of the NSUIDs of totk and Advance wars I believe

 

[Serif]

Never knew I needed child Link mini mini fig until now

 

[totofogo]

So cool that Hestu can be built from extra tree parts when building the BotW, but is otherwise built into the Tree in the OOT build.

 

[Pacobob]

Nate or jeff grubs commented on the date Feb 7?

 

[LiC]

In the BotW version of the tree, Maronus can also be built from the parts.

From some quick Googling, Maronus is the German localization's name for Hestu.

 

[the_marmolade]

Im going to bet Feb 13th just because it seem the safest

 

[Tezzor]

Yeah Hestu can be seen in on of the pictures.

Nate or jeff grubs commented on the date Feb 7?

I mean, it's extremely likely it's either the 7th, 8th, or 9th, so I don't know if we need more assurance.

 

[Ojoloco]

The leaked Lego Zelda Set:

Both trees are part of the same set, you can build the OoT version or the BotW




There are others sets leaked like Simba, Maleficent, Gotham, X Mansion, a medieval city, Donald duck, the tower of sauron, etc

 

[Awesomegames23]

Jeff said he wouldn't be surprised if it's late next week, 7th already seemed unlikely, Friday is unlikely, so it seems patterns would suggest the 8th, but Grubbs comment for late in the week (which seems speculative), suggests the 9th.

I think it's the 8th personally.

 

[Mbolibombo]

The updates of the NSUIDs of totk and Advance wars I believe

Ah okey, thought there was something about unannounced games.
Not sure I think of NSUIDs - albeit good to know - as a leak.. Maybe that's just me :>

i do not fear the legos

 

[totofogo]

The leaked Lego Zelda Set:

best not to share the images here directly, it can harm the site.

 

[Gabev]

Can't tell Zelda's hair is long or short lol

Squinting at the images I think it is long haired BotW Zelda.

I think he just said "later in the week" because he said "the week of the 6th" and didn't want anyone to think he was saying it's coming on the 6th lol. Grubby boy has been very cautious talking about Nintendo stuff because talking about them caused him to lose his lovely locks lmao.

It's not a good idea to post direct link images of Lego leaks. Lego may go after the site. If there's an indirect link (tweet or instagram) that would be much better.

 

[Edengamer23]

Its probably 8th on Wednesday as usual. Announcement should be just one day before, I wouldnt expect much on Monday tbh

 

[LiC]

It's not a good idea to post direct link images of Lego leaks. Lego may go after the site. If there's an indirect link (tweet or instagram) that would be much better.

I mean... a DMCA takedown notice is probably the worst that could happen, and that's not exactly a death sentence. The post would just have to be deleted or edited by a mod in that case.

 

[Mr_No_U]

Fami doesn't load anymore instead it takes me straight to lego.com

RIP

 

[Pacobob]

Do you have the lego zelda in hd please?

 

[9-Volt]

Yeah, it's better to be safe than sorry. Lego sued one of the sites who just shared one of leaks and they were not the source at all.

Okey, i change the picture and put twitter posts

 

[LiC]

Yeah, it's better to be safe than sorry. Lego sued one of the sites who just shared one of leaks and they were not the source at all.

Was it a blog? Because blogs are publishers of their own content, which makes them liable for it, whereas forums and similar websites don't have liability for content uploaded by users (as long as they comply with good-faith DMCA takedowns).

Also, in the event there was a liability issue, embedding an Instagram post wouldn't really be any different from a direct image hotlink.

 

[Derachi]

Hey folks! As exciting as the Zelda LEGO sets are, please do not directly post images of them. LEGO is apparently quite swift and uncaring when it comes to takedowns and potential legal action, and we’d rather not have that happen to us. If you can post the images via a link to another website, or Twitter/Instagram embed, that’s OK, but please refrain from simply embedding an image.

On a cursory search, I can't find any news about Lego suing someone over leaks. But if you're concerned about the DMCA part, I don't think Twitter/Instagram embeds are meaningfully different from a direct image embed. Either way, Famiboards is not hosting the content, but it is displaying it.
