Uma nova casa assombrada da LEGO!

por baixinho, em 13.05.20

Ok, eu sei que as fotografias já circulam há uns dias, mas o que posso fazer :/

No entanto posso dizer que quando recebi a info sobre este set, fiquei acima de tudo intrigado. Primeiro porque o visual da caixa é diferente e até, como aconteceu a muitos, dá a impressão de ser fake. Segundo porque há uma clara referência a uma nova (ou se calhar, não tão nova) série, a Fairground Collection. Sou um defensor de temas regulares como os modulares e o Winter Village, entre outros, e mesmo tendo em conta que as atracções de feiras populares saem fora do meu campo de interesses, uma série regular de sets grandes é uma série regular de sets grandes :). Terceiro, nunca esperaria que pegassem nesta atracção em particular.. no meio de tantas outras coloridas e visualmente mais movimentadas. Por fim o meu quarto e último ponto que me causa esta sensação, isto mexe.. mas como? Apenas recebi texto e imagens e sinceramente estou curioso quanto a ver um vídeo  para perceber o que raio é que se mexe neste set.

Agora o habitual press release e depois uma pequena opinião sobre o set.. mas tendo em conta que não o construí e nem vi nenhum vídeo do funcionamento.

Quando li que a LEGO ia lançar uma nova casa assombrada a minha mente navegou directamente para o set 10228 de 2012. Portanto ao ver a imagem fiquei algo confuso e só depois reparei que a premissa era diferente. Depois de um sonoro "ahhhh", comecei a ver com mais atenção não só a arquitectura exterior (muito interessante mas não excelente) como também os interiores (erhhh, coisas muitos boas mas outras que me causam alguma estranheza). No geral gosto e sinto que muitos dos pontos que não aprecio se devam ao tal mecanismo que estou curioso por ver em funcionamento.

Mas também interessante é a outra nota que a LEGO juntou ao press release e que se segue:

PREPARE TO BE SPOOKED WITH THE BRAND-NEW LEGO® HAUNTED HOUSE SET

The LEGO Group has announced the LEGO Haunted House, a hair-raising new fairground build for adult thrill-seekers - available from 20th May from LEGO.com and LEGO Stores

Gear up for a spooky ride and bring to life the ultimate ghostly fairground experience, with the brand-new LEGO® Haunted House set. This latest addition to the LEGO Fairground collection is jam-packed with exciting features to surprise and entertain even the bravest of thrill-seekers.

Modelled on Manor Von Barron, the spooky home of one of the world’s greatest villains - Samuel Von Barron, the new LEGO® Haunted House model is full to the brim with spine-tingling details. Its clever design features a fully functional free-fall ride with automatic doors at the top of the tower, giving brave riders a glimpse of the thrilling plummet to come, as well as intricate ghoulish details such as haunted doors and a cursed painting to warn off any trespassers.

To enhance the spooky experience even further and unlock special features, such as a moving elevator, fans can also add LEGO Powered Up components (available separately) and control and amplify the set as they build via LEGO’s Powered Up app.

The 3,231-piece LEGO® Haunted House model not only makes an impressive and creepy display piece, standing at over 26.5” (68cm) high, 9” (25cm) wide and 9” (25cm) deep, but also gives fans the chance to get hands-on and immerse themselves in the ghostly world. LEGO builders can open the model’s exterior and enter the ultimate haunted house to discover the features hidden inside - revealing Von Barron’s extensive collection of stolen artefacts which nod to LEGO brick sets of the past, including the Organ of Catarino and the Orb of OGEL.

This brand-new set has been designed specifically with adults in mind - providing an immersive, creative experience for them to re-focus, re-charge and get creative, whether they’re enjoying alone or as a challenging build with friends or younger builders.

The new LEGO® Haunted House™ construction set is the latest example of how the LEGO Group aims to inspire builders of all ages to build, rebuild and get excited by the process of creation. It’s also the first set from the LEGO Fairground Collection to feature the new stylish packaging designed to make it easier than ever for adult fans to find their new build challenge based on their individual passions.

Addressing the new packaging, Senior Marketing Manager Anders Hellegaard Iversen said: “So many of our older builders love the Creator Expert products, as they allow them to show off their passion for the bricks. Whether it’s their favorite film moments, sport icons, travel destinations, buildings, fairgrounds or vehicles, LEGO sets help to bring these to life in brick form. That’s also why we have decided to stop using the Creator Expert branding and, instead, use the new adult-focused packaging design to make it clearer which hobbies or brand products they can relate to. We hope this will make it easier for fans to track down models they would be proud to display once completed. Of course, our product range will continue to include the same advanced-build, collectible products that guarantee hours of building enjoyment for fans.”

The brand-new LEGO Haunted House is available to VIP members from 20th May and for remaining LEGO fans from 1st June, direct from LEGO.com and LEGO Stores.

The new LEGO® Haunted House™ construction set is the latest example of how the LEGO Group aims to inspire builders of all ages to build, rebuild and get excited by the process of creation. The new LEGO® Haunted House, designed for those aged 18+, will be the first set from the LEGO Fairground Collection to feature the new stylish packaging designed to reflect the sophisticated nature of the creative process. 

All new products in the LEGO Group’s ranges that appeal to adults will now feature the sleek, minimalistic new design across related packaging, building instructions, exclusive content and in-store and online store design.

Ou seja, explica melhor a questão do visual da caixa, do "novo" tema e reforça o que é já sabido, sets direccionados para adultos (fãs ou não de LEGO).

Não vai para a minha wishlist (preço elevado num tema que não é do meu interesse) mas é, com certeza, um set muito interessante.
