Gonna dream big here, but I want to inexplicably see Majisto's Workshop and a Winter Village Market Stall as the promos this year. And also double vip points.
I think the set that's actually releasing over the weekend is the Avengner's Tower, right? Bit weird to have a livestream next week for that, as it's been known about and seen for a while, and has even been sighted being built within Lego stores themselves.
Hmmm I wonder what a new Set from Lego will reveal?
New set has gotta be Avengers Tower doesn't it? And Majisto's Workshop for the GWP?

Brickset users... ASSEMBLE!
I wonder if it will be the Orient Express. I sure hope so!
A printed Majisto which accoring to the leaks won't happen.
Nice!
23:30 noted.
I'm hearing it might be an Avengers set with John Steed and Emma Peel. Just hoping it won't turn out to be a big disappointment with Mike Gambit and Purdey, or maybe even worse....
je présume que se seras l'annonce de la pré-commande de la tour des avengers 76269 pour la fin de semaine du 18 novembre et du lancement de l'orient express 21344. On verra mercredi prochain.
No matter if it's the train or tower, we know we are getting the train anyway and this is what really matters to me :)
76269 Avengers Tower (which has been seen on display in-store so this stream seems far too late).
And an all-time fan-favorite GWP “Black Panther and Some Chick in a Sports Car Fighting Outriders”
Oh goodness. What could it possibly be. The suspense, it is killing me.
I pretty much assumed LEGO couldn't keep a secret (everything seems to leak). How are they keeping this one?
The avengers tower is the reason I'm thinking of investing in stocks. Best marvel set of all time,from the leaks I've seen.

Absolutely. The real question though is whether they will give us a reason (GWP) to buy (like Luke/Yoda lightsabers), or let us sit and wait for a discount (like Razor Crest and Bugle)?
A decent sale, what I hope to see. Which was not the case in the last few years...
LEGO has become leakier than the Titanic and it needs to either fix that or else loosen its grip on what recognized fan media are allowed to talk about (will never happen, I know). This is a prime example of how ridiculous things have become. Images and even in-store video of the Avengers Tower and all of its minifigures have been publicly available for weeks and sets have presumably already been delivered to the LAN and media for review, but LEGO still insists on these absurd reveal embargoes and won't let sites say what everyone already knows. To be perfectly clear, this is 100% the fault of LEGO itself and not the media. But it's hurting recognized media by making them perennially late to the party.
Huh, ñet us see what we can get out of it.

20% off at Target this week.
Really wanted a Buildable 2x4 White Brick to go with 6313291 . Teal never really cut it!
Other than that, 30% off Rivendell would be nice!
I am hoping to see the completely new and unexpected new Lego monorail which has not been plagued by any sort of leaks or rumours at all.
This should be accompanied by the GWP remake of 5919 Valley of the Kings.
I figure, I set my hopes to be extremely disappointed in a few days.

I agree that Lego need to have the ability to pivot when a set is leaked/revealed to actually be on display in store, and adjust their marketing calendar.
Although they have become better on controlling leaks generally, they lack on quickly adjusting to build on the hype.
I’m hearing that the GWP will be a large Black Panther torso.
I am hoping for something with a high piece count but a low price point in favorable colors that appeals to my childhood likes...
Majisto set is really underwhelming

Given the dirt I've heard about Target lately, I doubt I'll ever be shopping there anymore
But I bet Walmart might discount the set once it nears its retirement date"
Walmart only has 75342 through their "third-party" sellers.
I thought it was a Target exclusive, but yesterday I saw it at a local hobby store.

I'm confused. What dirt?

I see you're a man of culture as well. I loved that old Avengers tv show.

You can already see it, if you search for it on the WWW
where do you watch the stream?
Hoping for 50% off everything :)
@TheBrickPal The Link no longer seems to work?

It's working fine on my end. Maybe it's a regional issue? The page is listed on the US site, but not the UK site, it seems.
from the leak video i've seen the prices of the GWPS is crazy
