BrickBob Studpants Posted January 9 Posted January 9 (edited) Looks like we’re getting another Lilo and Stitch set, 43280 L&S Beach Fun! It only has 113 pieces tho, so probably just includes the eponymous characters. Edited January 9 by BrickBob Studpants Quote

Odds we get a new hair mold for Lilo or at least dual molded arms? 43302 looks like an 18+ with no piece or price attached. We thinking along the lines of Snow White and Beauty and the Beast or another buildable? Seems like its following after the buildable Winnie the Pooh and Slinky Book Ends? Quote

Isn't Lego retiring the Disney Castle and Snow White Cottage soon? So perhaps a location-based set as a replacement? Quote

Since there are 2 small Lilo & Sticht sets coming in June too and having in mind the huge success of last eyar movie, I wonder if the 18+ set could be base don the franchise too. Maybe Jumba and Pleakly spaceship? Quote

I think they could do some really fun stuff with the size and piece count afforded to 18+ sets, and there have been plenty of play sets, so it's not taking much away from smaller children. Quote

Tangled is one of my favourite animated films from the 2010’s, and a minifig set based on it would be fantastic! Sure, we already have Rapunzel and Flynn / Eugene from the Didney Castle, but Gothel and the twins would be nice additions ^^ And the tower itself could look impressive as an 18+ model! Quote

Especially since I don't have Rapunzel and Flynn from the castle. Their price on the second hand market is absurdly high. I wonder how max could look in minifigure style (or if they would just use the usual horse mould). Quote

I wonder if Lego monitors BL prices for minifigs to gauge demand? As much as the Disney castle 2.0 was perhaps a 'flop', the minifigs weren't and I could only imagine them increasing in value. Quote
OttoRiver Posted January 12 Posted January 12 I'd love a Rapunzel Tower 18+ as well but not sure how likely that is given the Disney Princess lineup. Looks like 43294 is Rapunzel's Small Tower (171 pcs, June) and 43297 Rapunzel's Castle (676 pcs, June) are coming out the same time and may be too much competition. Or its just a Rapunzel heavy year.

DisneyLego Posted January 15 Posted January 15 (edited) With Cinderella’s castle being repainted over the next several months, what are the chances another castle set comes out? As much as I want more Disney Park based sets, another version of the castle is at the bottom of my list. I find it hard to believe they’ll keep the current castle on shelves for too long once it doesn’t reflect the actual castle’s appearance anymore. Edited January 15 by DisneyLego Quote

The current castle retired at the end of last year, so I would say the chances are pretty high that another castle will be released sometime in 2026 or 2027. The Disney Castle has been a staple of the Disney line now for years. Quote
brickbride Posted January 18 Posted January 18 (edited) CMF series 30 is rumoured to be based on a 2026 movie, a new IP that's never had sets before. A lot of people on reddit suspect that it might be Shrek 5. (I know it's from DreamWorks not Disney but figured that people here might be interested nonetheless.)

Shrek 5 is set to release in 2027, so if it's based on a 2026 movie it can't be that one. Maybe Mario or Avengers? Going back to Disney, and seeing the lack of Frozen sets in the June wave, I wonder if that 18+ could be a Frozen set. I think a minifigure set for Elsa's ice palace or Arendelle castle could be a success and bring minifigures for Kristoff and Hans for the first time. Maybe even Oaken, Marshmallow and Duke of Weselton. Quote

The leakers said it was a brand-new license that never had sets before, and told us not to rule out a 2027 movie (implying it‘s a movie that got delayed, just like Shrek 5). Thus, my money‘s on Shrek ^^ Quote
hikouki Posted January 18 Posted January 18 So, which mini fig-based sets are we getting for 2026? Quote

OttoRiver Posted January 22 Posted January 22 So far this is what we have for upcoming: 43280: Lilo and Stitch Beach Fun 43282: Country Cottage and Boat (4+) 43283: Cinderella's Castle (4+) 43289: Beauty and the Beast Enchanted Castle 43292: Buildable Pua 43293: Buildable Kakamora 43294: Rapunzel's Small Tower 43295: Jasmine's Jewelry Box 43296: Buildable Stitch and Scrump 43297: Rapunzel's Castle 43298: Disney Advent Calendar 43299: Ariel's Royal Wedding Boat 43300: Buildable Winnie the Pooh (18+) 43301: Slinky Dog Book Ends 43302: ???? (18+) 43304: Disney Pixar (4+) 43305: Piglet's Birthday Fun I bolded the ones I think most likely to be minifigure though I think we could only expect reissued or slightly updated prints if anything. 43304 and 43301 may have minifigures, the book end and book nook sets have always come with them but Slinky may be such an intricate build there is nothing else added to it. And while 4+ Pixar sets have been minifigure sets in the past, Inside Out had minidolls and I'm not sure what it would be. I doubt any of the others would be anything than minidolls, fitting with the Disney Princess theme but if I end up being wrong, I won't be mad about it. Quote
DisneyLego Posted January 23 Posted January 23 Does anyone know if the large Elsa’s Ice castle can be modified with all transparent blue pieces? Or at least the whole front/exterior? Finishing up some display cabinet builds and getting everything measured/laid out. Would love to display it aside of the BATB castle but only if I can get it a bit more movie accurate. Of course I’ll probably end up doing this and LEGO will release a minifigure version the following year lol Quote
BrickBob Studpants Posted January 23 Posted January 23 7 hours ago, OttoRiver said: 43304: Disney Pixar (4+) According to jedijacpenguin, that‘s a Lotso set. Not sure it‘s a buildable figure, since it‘s a $50 4+ set, and the only other one so far was the Grogu set that just got released, and that was $20 with side builds A buildable Lotso for that price sounds like the other 7+ buildable Disney characters, not a 4+ one Quote

I do think we have a bit tooooo many buildable figures in the lineup as is. Either these sell far better than I expected or Disney is just really adverse to minifig sets over posable models. Quote

BrickBob Studpants Posted January 24 Posted January 24 One of the upcoming BrickHeadz sets features Mike, Sully, and Boo! Finally some proper Monsters Inc representation Quote

Quoting myself because the September 2026 CMF series (71053) is Shrek (as leaked by MaxBaut, a very well-informed German leaker). He also leaked 72423 (Buildable Shrek & Donkey, 1403 pieces, USD 160 with a Puss in Boots minifigure) and 40923 (Shrek & Donkey & possibly other characters Brickheadz). Quote
