LEGODalekbuster523 Posted October 30, 2016 Posted October 30, 2016 (edited) This is different to the wishlist in that you are predicting what you think will be released rather than what you want to see. Here are my predictions: Story Packs Class - Now personally I would prefer a Doctor Who Series 10 Story Pack but looking at this years' Story Packs, they seem to focus more on licenses that branch out from franchises included in the game but are a part of that franchise's universe (or at least a new version of the same universe). For example, Ghostbusters (2016) is a reboot of Ghostbusters (1984) and Fantastic Beasts And Where To Find Them is a prequel spinoff of Harry Potter. I think Traveller's Tales will want to return to Doctor Who because of the sheer popularity of the Level Pack but for the above reason I don't think it will be for Series 10. I think the spinoff Class matches the above trend: it is a spinoff of Doctor Who. Some may say 'but it's too dark for LEGO' but to them I point to Beetlejuice, which is actually a 15-rated movie. I think they could replace the blood/gore with the typical family-friendly LEGO humour and omit any of the adult scenes such as the sex scene in Nightvisiting. Character: Charlie (seeing as he's the only one that can use the gun without being killed himself, meaning that he'd have one more useful ability than the other characters, also could unlock the others) Vehicle: London bus (from Nightvisiting) Facade: Coal Hill Academy (obviously) Jumanji - Again, for the same reasons as Class. Although the original Jumanji isn't currently in the game in this scenario it would be included alongside the 2016 sequel. Whilst it is a sequel, it will likely be in more a form of a reboot, as with Jurassic World. Character: Martha Vehicle: Depends what vehicles are in the movie, I would imagine some form of jeep Facade: Jungle The LEGO Ninjago Movie - Purely because The LEGO Batman Movie is getting a Story Pack next year so it makes sense. Characters: Koko, Lloyd Vehicle: One of their 'awesome fleet of vehicles' mentioned in the synopsis Facade: High school Level Packs Iron Man - With Disney Infinity gone, LEGO will no doubt want to include Disney-owned IPs in the game. Marvel and Star Wars will likely be the most prominent to feature; with rumours of Guardians of the Galaxy getting its own standalone game and Star Wars movies having already been re-created in LEGO form, it would therefore make sense for LEGO to go for the most iconic, non-LEGO-ised Marvel film to date: the first Iron Man. Character: Tony Stark Vehicle: Tony Stark's Roadster Gadget: Iron Man suit Level: Iron Man (2008) Toy Story - Toy Story is Pixar's most iconic franchise and fits the toys-to-life genre well...because it's about toys - coming to life. Enough said. Character: Woody Vehicle: RC remote control car Gadget: Etch-A-Sketch Level: Toy Story (1995) Looney Tunes - Warner Bros. own Looney Tunes so would be an easy one for them to include - plus they are still hugely iconic characters. Character: Wile. E Coyote Vehicle: Road Runner Gadget: Acme Crate Level: A Wile. E Coyote and Road Runner Adventure (basically the premise of all the WEC cartoons: Wile. E Coyote trying to catch Road Runner) Ratchet And Clank - There usually seems to be a Level Pack based on a gaming franchise and Ratchet & Clank would be a perfect fit for LEGO's wacky sense of humour. Character: Ratchet Vehicle: Ratchet's Ship Gadget: Groovitron Level: Tools of Destruction Team Packs Guardians of the Galaxy - If the GOTG videogame rumours turn out to be true, then it would make the most sense for Guardians of the Galaxy to be included in packs without levels. I'd be surprised if they're not included at all judging by the huge success of the first movie. Characters: Rocket, Groot Vehicle: The Milano Gadget: The Orb The Flintstones - Flintstones packs have already been hinted at through a secret TARDIS area in the main game so their inclusion wouldn't come as a surprise. They are also still animated characters who are relevant. Characters: Fred, Barney Vehicle: Fred's Car Gadget: Dino Men In Black - It's a hugely iconic franchise with a planned reboot. Perfect for inclusion sometime round about now. Characters: Agent K, Agent J Vehicle: K's P.O.S. Car Gadget: Massive Neuraliser (Men In Black 3) Star Wars - It's arguably the most famous film franchise in the world. It wouldn't make sense for it not to be included in the game next yea. Characters: Luke Skywalker, Darth Vader Vehicle: Millenium Falcon Gadget: R2-D2 Fun Packs Marvel: Spider-Man - Makes sense given Spider-Man: Homecoming comes out next year. Character: Spider-Man Vehicle: Spider-Car Captain America - He's the second main character of the MCU after Iron Man. Character: Captain America Vehicle: Black Widow's Corvette Thor - He's one of the most prominent Marvel Cinematic Universe heroes. Character: Thor Vehicle: Asgardian Boat (From The Dark World) Bruce Banner - It would complete the main Avengers, with only Hawkeye and Black Widow missing. Character - Bruce Banner/can transform into Hulk Vehicle: Quinjet Peter Quill - You can't have Rocket and Groot without Peter Quill? Character - Peter Quill Vehicle - Awesome Mix Volume One Star Wars: Han Solo - Well, it's Star Wars plus Harrison Ford so there's no way LEGO wouldn't do this. Character - Han Solo Vehicle - Death Star Chewbacca - Han Solo's sidekick says it all on why LEGO would do it Character - Chewbacca Vehicle - I don't like Star Wars so don't know a great deal about it other than the iconic things I've already mentioned. Maybe there could be a buildable Hyperspace Drive? C-3PO - Iconic character like the Cybermen from Doctor Who Character - C-3PO Vehicle - Again, don't know a lot about Star Wars. Maybe a buildable version of that worm thing shown in the Star Wars cameo in The LEGO Movie? Pixar: Mr Incredible - Who doesn't love The Incredibles? Also could give you the ability to play as all four Incredibles. Character - Mr Incredible Vehicle - Syndrome's Manta Jet Sully - Monsters' Inc is Toy Story's nearest rival and Sully would make a cool minifigure. Character - Sully Vehicle - Door Jumanji: Alan Parrish - I think the original Jumanji would be included if the sequel wasn't being made as it fits with the franchises LEGO have included so far. Alan's the most memorable character from the original. Character - Alan Parrish Vehicle - Smashed Car (smashed by an elephant in the film) Doctor Smolder Bravestone - Appears to be one of the main characters in the 2016 film. Character - Doctor Smolder Bravestone Vehicle - Some vehicle in the film. I'd imagine there might be a bike of some sort. Charlie's Angels: Sabrina Duncan - Fits in with other niche TV Shows included in LEGO Dimensions such as A-Team and Knight Rider. Character - Sabrina Duncan (unlocks other Charlie's Angels) Vehicle - Angels' Car (Mustang featured in series according to Google) Labyrinth: Goblin King - Makes sense given its topicality due to David Bowie's untimely passing. Character - Goblin King Vehicle - Ambrosius Flash Gordon: Flash Gordon - Has a cult following like Labyrinth. Character - Flash Gordon Vehicle - Gordon's Ship Class: Shadow Kin - Most iconic monster in Class as-of-current. Character - Shadow Kin Vehicle - Prosthetic Leg The LEGO Ninjago Movie: Lord Garmadon - Seems to the film's villain. Character - Lord Garmadon Vehicle - Dragon Ratchet & Clank: Captain Quark - A very popular character from the series. Character - Captain Quark Vehicle - Aphelion Ship Looney Tunes: Bugs Bunny - The most popular of the Looney Tunes. Character - Bugs Bunny Vehicle - Bugs' Car Daffy Duck - Who doesn't know who Daffy Duck is? Character - Daffy Duck Vehicle - Duck Dodgers Ship Tazmanian Devil - A character so successful he got his own spinoff Character - Taz Vehicle - Taz's Bike The Flintstones: Wilma - You can't have Fred without Wilma Character - Wilma Vehicle - Flintstones Sports Car Men In Black: Boris The Animal - Because wasn't he a great character in Men In Black 3? Character: Boris Vehicle: Boris' Bike Pirates of the Caribbean: Jack Sparrow - Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales is out next year and Jack is a pop-culture character. Character - Jack Sparrow Vehicle - Black Pearl Davy Jones - Jack Sparrow's most famous nemesis. Character - Davy Jones Vehicle - Flying Dutchman Will Turner - Probably the most popular character after Jack Sparrow. Character - Will Turner Vehicle - Queen Anne's Revenge Indiana Jones: Indiana Jones - Pretty much the only character they'd be able to do for the franchise. Character - Indiana Jones Vehicle - Short Round's Car Yellow Submarine: Paul McCartney - Every Ideas set so far has originally gained a Dimensions set so I would be shocked if Yellow Submarine doesn't get a fun pack. Paul McCartney being the band leader of The Beatles means he would make the most sense as the minifigure. Character - Paul McCartney Vehicle - Yellow Submarine What are your predictions?

Though it may be possible for there to be fun and team packs.

Though it may be possible for there to be fun and team packs. I think they could get around that. Barbie wasn't in the first movie and Mr Potato Head isn't as instantly recognisable as the Hasbro toy as Barbie is of her licensed off-screen equivalent. Besides, if it comes to it LEGO and Traveller's Tales have more than enough money to buy the Hasbro license. Let's also not forget that AT&T bought Time Warner, which owns Warner Bros' videogame division. Some of the money from that deal could be used for the Hasbro license.
Captain Nemo Posted October 31, 2016 Posted October 31, 2016 There is a wishlist thread already; we do not need two. Predictions and wishes are basically the same thing.
