LEGO Collectable Minifigures Future Series Rumours

I think it is kinda funny like we always try to categorize stuff and especially Lego sets and basically today follow how they are sorted into brickset, if it makes sense or not. 

Take a look at the first town sets and then the last ones and then tell me if those are more similar to each other than the later to City. The design language changed all the time, just look at last/this years City Space or Construction and compare it to other city sets. In the end Town, City and World City are all the same thing just like Icons and Creator Expert, different marketing and Logo, but aside from that not that much changed.

Ehhhhh, speak for yourself there, it's not a Classic Space to Futuron thing where the sets are nigh identical in by the end. I consider them different because this is the last town airport and the first City one, there are WAY less years between these two than the gap between the CIty one and our most recent, but like the City one is still recognisable enough as City it wouldn't look too out of place next to the new one while the same can't be said for Town, I could say the same for fire stations or ambulances and so on. I don't think this because of Brickset, it's simply much easier to talk about these themes by seperating them because they're so distinct, anything I wanna say about CIty of substance (So not just it has police and houses) doesn't apply for Town and vice versa. If we bundle them together it makes conversation more difficult. Besides literally both of the other big three classic minifig themes in Space and Castle get to be segmented based on title, no-one here would just say Kingdoms and Castle are the same and a Kingdoms anniversry , if touched, would have to be '78. If you class them differently you're free to but I'm not doing this out of dedication to a website, it's what makes the most sense to me.

(also the Town one was rereleased under City and the only thing ever said about that was how weird and out of place it felt)

For who else should I speak if not for myself? ;). But that is exactly the point. You have another opinion about it than I do and it is just impossible to categorize it so that it fits for everyone ;)

Pirate fans would probably keelhaul you now ;). 

And well Kingdoms is a subtheme, and a quite modern one, so bad example, because all newer sets are sorted by their official theme now (though as subtheme of castle). But if we take a look at older castle subthemes, IMO that is quite a mess, because the sets are basically sorted by factions and not really themes, which splits sets from the same time with oposing factions into different themes, while in Kingdoms to stay with your example they didn´t devide the theme into dragon and Lion Knights ;).

But yeah, obviously. my opinion, and noone has to agree with it ofc ;).

Yes, very true

True, Pirates is the oddball here, like the Jack Stone one not withstanding every pirates theme has been pretty stylistically similar, whenever it pops up it fits in more or less with all the rest.  Space, Castle, Town have so much variation and subthemes and pirates is pretty much just pirates when and whenever it pops up.

I mean I agree that modern themes are sorted?more specifically by their names instead of broader titles, that's why I think City is a distinct one ;) 

Classic Castle and Space's Subthemes are more akin to City's Arctic or Town's  Space Port and such but modern ones like Kingdoms I feel aren't right to be classed as "Subthemes" in the same way as Black Falcons and Blacktron are.  Kingdom's wasn't a subtheme or a continuation of "Castle" in the same way it was a separate entity under a distinct different name that filled the same genre but took the place of the previous theme. Kingdoms is way more similar to Fantasy-era Castle or 2013 Castle than the last waves of Town to the first waves of City but even though all three of those are Castle themes if we talked about Kingdom's anniversary we'd ignore the theme that came before even though it's dealing with similar subject matter

Ofc people will draw lines where to count individual themes from the System era but suffice to say it's not just brickset driving my mindset here

Is the third series of 2026 confirmed to be D&D Series 2, right? Or is it still rumored?

[Pop Star c o]

Still a rumor, at this time.

[Black Falcon]

The question is, if it is an reliable one. And so far I haven´t seen it mentioned anywhere aside from one post in this forum without even mentioning a source...

[Pop Star c o]

Well, the source doesn't seem to look very reliable but he sounded pretty confident when he said it.

I definitely wouldn't mind a second D&D series, but I haven't heard about this rumour before. Who's the source?

Some guy on YouTube called William Li

Like I said, he doesn't look like a reliable source but he claims like he knows for sure, so let's see how this winds up.

How come we're not getting any concrete news this year? Usually we know what the three CMF themes will be by now.

May - Series 29

September - D&D Series 2

That‘s still an unsubstantiated rumour though  I‘ve seen the video, but since it‘s just a random Youtuber without any previous credits to his name (as far as I‘m aware), I‘m not putting any stock into it. The rumour as such is plausible enough, but I‘ll wait for an established leaker to confirm/deny it.

It's usually more concrete and it's deemed reliable by this time. We'd have known for sure what all three themes entailed.

Yeah, this guy could easily just be hedging his bets. Disney and Harry Potter both had 2 years between their series, so it wouldn’t be unprecedented for a similarly popular license to get a second series after that period too. Now, whether it’s as safe a bet now that Lego’s doing random stuff like the F-1 series is another thing.

Just to correct you, Disney only had 3 years between their series (first series in 2016 and second in 2019). Yet it took a few extra years for Series 3 (aka Disney 100).

You’re right, I must have misremembered the years. Or maybe I was thinking of the Marvel series (2021 and 2023). The fact remains, 2 years appears to be the minimum time between the first and second series of extremely popular licensed series. It’s hard to say if that timeframe is Lego reacting to good sales or if they know when certain licenses will be popular and schedule series 2 ahead of release – either way, it’s not hard to imagine such a thing happening for D&D, so this rumor could possibly be an educated guess.

Wasn't Simpsons 2014/15?

I wonder if they'll ever actually make a Western figure with a hat similar to this one they were using around The Lego Movie days.

Out of curious, what do you expect to see that Western sheriff’s hat? Like a new mold or recolor? I am waiting for Western figures with hairpieces from the Lego Movie CMF  (the Western robots, to be specific), would ever show up in regular CMF series.  As well as Wllie’s raccoon hat.
