Itaria No Shintaku

Take this with a small grain of salt, but... winter set will be a creator gingerbread house.

Yeah I thought that afterwards. BTW I'm quite happy to have her.

Gingerbread Woman first of series 19?

Did I miss something?

I wouldn't been surprised if they did: JAN/FEB - THE LEGO MOVIE 2 SERIES 2 APR/MAY - DISNEY SERIES 3 AUG/SEP - SERIES 20

Three more series confermed for 2020. As if someone had doubts.

I'd skip really few of this minifigures. They actually suit my likes better than the real ones.

I meant there is no ORC in CMF. And no centaur either. I mean, I could buy the entire run of either minifigure.

To be honest, I fail to understand the way TLG could run out of ideas. Follow me. Costumed characters. They can virtually do anything they want. They can use also the new teen legs to add more Halloween costumed characters (kid vampire, kid ghost, kid frankenstein kid whateveryouwant) Geographical Specific characters. They have still room for dozens of characters. We have been talking about them for ages. Canadian Mountie. Russian Cossack. Venetian Gondoliere. Beefeater. We can go on forever. Profession related characters. They can go on forever even here. I still haven't seen a Firefighter, a Newsagent, a Baker, a Grocer, a Dentist... Sports characters. They still miss many, like a Rugby Player, a Basketball Player, a Waterpolo Player, a Volleyball Player, an Handball Player and so on. Male/female counterparts of existing characters. They have done dozens of these, so they can go on like making a Groom (for the Bride), a Policewoman, a Cook (male), etc. I can really pick nearly any characters and wish for a gender swapped counterpart. Evil/good counterparts of existing characters. They have done this too. Evil and good wizards, evil and good knights, and so on. Even reissue of old characters. We had several skaters, surfers, knights, gladiators, policemen, so actually there's room for anything. More from used "subthemes". Circus? We miss an acrobat, still. Mythology? We miss harpies, centaurs (CENTAUR) (sorry I have to repeat it: CENTAUR!). Monsters? We miss a shrouded ghost. Fantasy? Still no orcs here. STILL - NO - ORCS! More from the subtheme "People with small animal". Like a shepard with a sheep, a pirate with a new parrot, and so on. I can go on forever, but you get the point. I could in 1 minutes list 50 different characters, enough for covering 3 series of upcoming minifigures. And I even didn't list as much as I could have done. So, no, I am sorry, I don't think they can run out of ideas if they don't specifically want to. EDIT: PIRATE WITH PARROT. How good would it look with a neckpiece with a stud so you can finally put the fword parrot on the fword shoulder? Don't blame me, it was pictured like that in a 1989 poster, with Redbeard having the fword bird on his shoulder, and it took me 1 hour to understand they glued it. I still shake if I remind that.

In a rumoured and probably fake half-list there was a Pizza Slice costume guy. I honestly think that the pizza slice AND the taco guy will happen in future. I don't know when, but those are costumes that really deserve to be made as they really took place in real life, while some other costumes were really pushed too far (never seen a fireworks costume).

Your reviews and your pictures are one of my "must-have" every year. Even when I don't care about a series it's like "Oh, but there's Fangy's review, so some good comes still from it"

I think Series 9 we had the 16 characters all seen from behind before we had the list, and we had series 7 presented along with series 6 months earlier, so we saw all the characters all together. But I may be absolutely wrong. I agree with every single thing you said, and it's supposed to be released for September 1st . I hope you don't quit as I didn't. I bought 5x sets of "Expecto Patronum" to get some Dementors, I bought some of the ninjago new sets and battlepacks to get ice samurais that are really well made. But that's all. I fail to remember the awe I had when there was a theme in which I could say "Oh I can buy whatever set and I'd be happy with that".

I'm checking leaks every day and I daily come back in this forum to see if someone knows better. To no avail until now, but the right day will come. By the way, I'm really curious about this series and I'll tell you why. Basically, it's from April 2017 that we miss a regular series, because series 18 was a costumed one and I really didn't enjoy it. So I have seen Ninjago Movie, Batman Movie 2, Series 18, Harry Potter, Lego Movie 2 and Disney 2 during these times, 6 series in which very few minifigures appealed to me. In the meantime, TLG isn't releasing any historic theme. No pirates, no castle, no anything that may sound like that. So my only hope to see something appealing in that way was from CMFs. Which, as I already mentioned, had no normal runs. Picture I bought several "Hercules" minifigures for boredom to make at least some greek fighters changing the hair piece. There hasn't even been ideas projects on something like pirates/castle and the only thing that was something similar was the castle that bricklink produced. But no new parts means that I can just buy the pieces and make it myself. I heard the usual rumours that something is coming back in 2020, but they are no trusted sources. So my last hope is coming here now and then, hoping to see series 19, hoping to see something appealing. It's actually frustrating.

And what if this series was about animals as Series 18 was about costumed guys and the Rugby Player will not be in the series after all? I don't know, just supposing.

Picture this: the head from the Berlin zoo minifnigure Panda was in the lego stores as part as Build your minifigure way before it hit Berlin.

Oh, you aren't alone my friend.

This is actually in LEGO stores across the globe. Is it an hint?

Yes, I would love a shepard. Both for the figure itself and for the possible sheep mould.

Let me say this, but that's no riddle. They usually make pieces that have multiple uses. Like, they made Wonder Woman's Golden Lazo, then they made a Cowgirl. Now this I don't say "I know a shepard is coming" but I'd be rather surprised if there weren't any.

Times when I had leaks were good times. Now, alas, TLG improved at keeping secrets.

Seems that Robert8 is the winner with 8 correct guesses. I, dorayaki, The Brick Rat and GrandDukeofKumquats however got 6, that's a good result too. Funny thing, nobody got a 0! Plus, the most obvious minifigure was JAFAR as 10 out of 16 players guessed him right. That's an high percentage. Also Scrooge Jasmine and Hercules were guessed by many users. Strangely enough, nobody thought about Huey Louie and Dewey even if they are quite common characters. Edna Mode and Sally also weren't guessed by anyone. Thanks for partecipating!

We have a new round here and my choice was easy!

Yes it will be also. So it has 2x chances to win :D Hey can anyone break this tie so we avoid a supplementary round? :D

ROUND 5 READY!!! I voted for the LEGEND set!

I voted for the Wolfpack Tower. I love that set!
