March 14, 2023 | 10

Update: Check out my review of 77013 Escape from the Lost Tomb!

Here’s are the product page links and regional prices:

Status and LEGO statement on 77014 The Temple of Doom

Before we jump into the photos, let’s address the elephant in the room, which is 77014 The Temple of Doom which was heavily rumoured to be delayed or cancelled.

The 2023 Temple of Doom set which was meant to be a remake of 7199 The Temple of Doom in inconspicuously absent from this initial wave, and LEGO provided the following statement, via the LEGO Ambassador Network

Throughout 2022, the LEGO Group worked closely with Lucasfilm to optimize our planned product line up for the upcoming LEGO Indiana Jones product launches in April 2023.
As an outcome of this, we consolidated the launch to focus on three products (77012, 77013, 77015) that feature some of the most iconic scenes from the Indiana Jones franchise.
We hope our fans love the new range and can’t wait to get their hands on them.

Update 2: This set is not coming. It’s cancelled.

It’s a bit of an ambiguous statement, and all it says that it’s NOT part of the April 2023 release, so who knows if its truly cancelled, or its been delayed.

That said, it’s incredibly disappointing to not have a set from The Temple of Doom, and LEGO Indiana Jones fans will sorely miss Short Round, Willie Scott, Mola Ram and more.

There are 3 sets in this initial wave, with none from the upcoming Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny movie, suggesting that the release follows the template set by Avatar where we had sets based on the earlier movie before sets based on the newer movie were released a bit later.
