New Update: LEGO Certified Stores Australia has updated their Retiring Soon section on their website. Here’s an up-to-date list, but do take it with a grain of salt as actual retirement dates may vary based on how quickly existing inventory gets depleted, and there are regional variances to consider again, depending on how much stock LEGO/retailers have in their regional warehouses, and how aggressive they begin clearing sets, especially in the lead up to Christmas.

Here’s an updated Retiring Soon November Update (following on from August’s update), cobbled together from a variety of sources, comparing the state of regional sites/stock availability, and Australian LEGO Certified Store information, for a guide to all sets that may retire at the end of 2021, or when sold out. No guarantees that it won't look like garbage, though.As we approach the end of the 2021, more news gets trickled out via a variety of sources about sets that will soon retire. It doesn't have any connections to accept legs, but if it's possible to extend the body you could always add some Technic bricks to the side so you can use legs with them. There's a related body half that was used in printed sand-green for the HP basilisk, and in plain black for two helicopters and two Bionicle minifig-scale sets. Star Wars had them in dark-green for the lizard Obi-Wan rides when chasing Grievous, and sand-green for the original Dewback. Alpha Team had them in black for one of Ogel's monsters. There was a print on old light-grey for a JP3 Spinosaurus.įor unprinted parts, Orient Expedition used them in plain old light-grey and old dark-grey for elephants. The Dinosaur theme had two prints each on sand-green and sand-blue. Just remember that the old body style has seen limited use over the years. So, there is no way you're going to get the modern bodies to work with the old limbs, but the modern limbs _should_ be able to plug into the old bodies. The limb has the mating section of the ratchet system, but it's set in flush with the connecting surface of the limb. There's a sleeve that's part of the ratchet system that sticks out a bit from the surface of the body. It uses a much more compact ratchet system that always uses a Technic pin connection. The necks (where needed) and tails connect with a ball-shaped terminus that fits into a neck sleeve.įor the modern dinosaurs, you can see the mating halves in the parts pic for the Indoraptor. So, the holes had to be proper Technic pin holes for those to work. The Mosasaur had fins that only connected by pins, and any bipedal dinosaurs had the old dragon forelegs that also connected by pins. Now, the holes that these buttons interfaced with _were_ Technic holes. The ratchet system was really wide, around 3 studs in diameter. They didn't use pins at all, but rather had buttons that would grip the pin holes, and relied on the fact that each leg set worked as a single element that would grip the body like a minifig hand grips a bar. After you built the core body, the legs would snap on around it. The bodies were quartered, with two elements. If you check any of the inventories for 6719-6722, you can see what the legs look like.
