LEGO Collectable Minifigures Series 17 Rumors and Discussion

Recommended Posts

Hi everybody :D 

Another italian here! Btw sorry for my english, I'll do a lot of mistakes.

Maybe I can help you a little, in italian 'tipo' and 'tizio' have exactly the same meaning, like 'guy' and 'dude', I guess; 'tipo' can mean 'kind' too (and so 'type', as in english in some situations, someone wrote It before), but it doesn't matter :)

The corn suit guy ('tipo in costume da pannocchia' sounds perfect in italian) should be amazing! I saw the picture and really love him, I'm gonna buy lot of them.

I think the chili pepper suit guy would have been fantastic too ('tipo in costume da peperoncino', in Italian), hope Lego will do it in the next series, cause I love peppers!

Can't wait to see the rocket suit guy too, it sounds amazing.

 

You are incredible, guys, I always read your guessing posts, and you are so good, you are better than investigators! 

 

Cheers! :D

Can I just check with you that y is an Italian letter, and if so, do you have any ideas what Itaria's y clue is?

Thanks!

Well, y isn't officially an italian letter...There are some words we usually use in Italian that begin with y, but all  words with foreign origins, as yogurt or yatch.

Thinking about jobs or acrivities, maybe yo-yo? Yuppie? Yoga? Yatchman?

Yuppie is highly related to the 80's! Isn't It? And yo-yo too

Yuppie as a term was coined in the '80s. Not sure how you would discern a regular minifig businessman figure from a young urban professional minifig, but I'd like to see them try it. The yo-yo goes all the way back to the Greeks, and it's a fad that jumps up every generation, so I wouldn't peg it as an '80s thing. The same goes for yachtsmen and Yoga instructors, not expressly '80s phenomenona. Though there was a surge of interest in yoga in the '80s. So maybe?

 

I'm leaning towards yuppie, and if it is I can see a lot of white, aqua and bright pink parts in my future.

It seems that the biggest ambiguity right now is whether A(C) refers to Astronauto (Cosmonauto) or Australiano (Canguro). The astronaut fits hint 15 very well, while the Australian fits hint 10.

Just to get a sense of what people think I set up a poll here. I will be interesting to see what people think is more likely.

Looking the corn cob suit guy, I was thinking that in the future it would be awesome a pop-corn guy :D Or a french fries guy, with a red box as body

What is exactly a Yuppie?

I googled it, and it seems it's just a businessman 

 

In that case I don't see how it can be a CMF

Y could be a female Yeti. That would be something "bizzare" that "nobody thought would be made" like Itaria described it.

I'd imagine that if it is an Australian (especially if it comes with an animal) that it would be either Steve Irwin inspired (with a kangaroo, crocodile, or really any other animal as long as it fits the initial) or Crocodile Dundee inspired (with a crocodile).

I could go for both of those.

Yuppie? Think new money country club. Slicked hair (too much product), polo shirt, gleaming teeth, if the minifig is male. Female might be a bit different. Either way, a cost saver.

Yeti female? Plausible. But not 80's specific.

Yoga? You mean Yogi. Difficult given the limits of the minifig limb rotations. Hindi styling? This would be more 60's or 70's.

maybe the limb restriction is the thing, Lego has made diffrent legs, wings and even arms for their minifigurs. perhapts this is a new mold for an upcoming theme? something that might be in ninjago, like a meditating master wu or something

Why would it have to be 80's specific?

It wouldn't HAVE to be but one of Itaria's clues links to something that would make the 80's again and I don't see any of his other clues (on page 8) that would link to a female yeti.

I was talking about this, 

13) Hello, I am a guy and this is totally bizarre. Really, nobody would have thought that I would have ever been a minifigure. And my price will sky-rocket. At least this is what Shintaku thinks.

But just now I realized "I am a guy" is there, so yeah, no female Yeti this time.

This is the clue that many have been speculating to be a rocket suit guy, but under my understanding it is not yet confirmed.

Only confirmed minifigures:

1. Circus strongman 

2. Butterfly suit 

3. Battle dwarf

4. Hot dog vendor

5. Also, the corn suit is ALMOST confirmed but not fully confirmed.

What?

The Corn Cob Suit Guy is the the most confirmed of them all. We have a picture of the mold

Yes, I know.

It's just that no one who has a full list has confirmed it yet.

Still, I suppose it has to be.
