Also is there a reason LEGO hasn't done Miraculous yet? It's an IP that's very popular with kids, has recognisable leads, a lot of minifig potential, and tons of merch. Plus mearly everyone in it except for Marinette's parents is drawn very tall and very slim, which means that for once minidolls would be an accurate representation of the source material. (Though I'd very much prefer minifigs.) Maybe it isn't American enough since it's set in Paris?

I don't believe it's very well known in america, which is one of the larger markets, so that would be my guess. Not saying it's a good or bad thing but it's probably why. The only time i can think of where we got a theme based on something not known in america was the Journey-to-the-west-inspired Monkie Kid, which was done to break into another major market, China. I don't know if China even has access to Miraculous.

Shame- I'm not very familiar with the show but the animation looks very nice. French animation is always solid, I loved the Iron Man cartoon from that French studio when I was a kid.

 

TMNT would be nice to get full sets of again. We'd never get a Last Ronin-marketed set, but sneaking in a Last Ronin Michealangelo minifigure into something would definitely have me bricklinking it at the very least.

Though my one remaining dream for a TLG theme, now that Indy and Dune got sets, is for Transformers to break into a full Energon Universe theme with Void Rivals sets. A theme based on comics without associated cartoons or movies is never going to happen, but rumor is the Energon Universe IS getting a cartoon, so it'll all hinge on whether or not they can dull it to TV-14. Void Rivals itself isn't anything too violent or dark for lego (though I buy one volume at a time so maybe something horrible happened between issues 17 and 25), but the associated Transformers comic has some human deaths that if adapted to a cartoon would definitely hit a TV-MA rating.
