I understand many people want to collect Space People as 1 color each. But I like to mix and match as I've mentioned before. I wasn't that interested in the light blue torso until now. Goes well with orange arms and airtanks (which are easy to find). So now I need to go buy a few of these torsos

Sorry if this has been mentioned. I just noticed the male Kracken/Viking guy has an eye patch. Is this a new head print? I like the colours of this minifigure but I'll modify it a bit. Not sure I actually like the logo but it might grow on me

Which other original Adventures characters do you think Lego could bring back? We've had 3 I think- Johnny, Pippin and "The Curator"

I saw someone else say 2 or 4 (can't remember) maps lined up so I had to go buy them. I only found 1 of the maps on pick a brick recently. Within the last month. The other 3 I bought from BL. Pretty cool less than a month later I see that the 2 new maps line up too. I guess they'll be on pick a brick at some stage. Maybe there won't be anymore, a total of 6, but I have to factor in the Yeti wanted poster so I assume there will be at least more sets. Therefore possibly more maps. If there is 1 more to the left then surely there has to be a total of 9 to make a square. I really hope for some kind of ancient mountain building or partial ruins. Which Lego Adventures themed character hasn't yet re-appeared? I saw the 2 x 3 tile too and am a bit confused. I'm ignoring it for now

Yes the geography is a bit odd. Going east even more? How will I display such a huge map? :) I think the top left will be mountains. So what type of sets? Himalayan/Tibet Temple? Yeti? There is that wanted poster... Under the mountains I guess plains or desert. A quick goog tells me that deserts have foxes of course, meerkats, tortoise, jackal. Would they bring back the camel or ostrich? I have the old ones I should sell now before they come back again. The sets could include a Moroccan type city. Or Petra. Have to wait and see

Too soon for rumours? Both new maps from the arctic sets sit nicely on the 4 maps from recent times (The top right map is being held at an angle so it doesn't line up perfectly here). The path goes off to the left. Does this mean another map going into the mountains? They can't just leave it at 7 so I predict there will be another 2 to make a square of 9 maps. What locations could we see in future? A savanna? Hopefully some different animals than just lions and elephants again. You know we do have savannas in Australia...

Clearly Johnny Thunder is ziplining in with murderous intent. Destroy the railway infrastructure and protect the wildlife. Pretty cool little back story :)

Always good to wait until official images. Some items can be stand-ins or colours might change. I think these preliminary pics are sometimes "accidently" leaked to build hype. Why are they always blurry? Anyways :) In this preliminary and blurry and not showing everything pic we've all seen, it looks like the wolf's left eye has a white ring around it

Hikouki- is the Lego set "Story of Nian" obscure in your eyes? I think if any set has a nice build, play features and good minifigs, it will be popular and if it revolves around a traditional story, then there's education as a bonus. I understand the zodiac animal might just be thrown in as decoration, but still, I think a little set based around the story I mentioned above could be cool. Just for my own interests in mythology. Lion King- you mean you want set 80103, or a new version? I've been living in Vietnam the past 5 years so bought 80102 here and have 80103 waiting for me in Australia. I think 80103 was a world wide set. What do people think could be the next Chinese New Year sets? We had a house, we had a restaurant, we had a temple and a garden and a parade. What's left? Pagoda? A pagoda has just been released in the Monkey Kid theme so I doubt that will appear in CNY

Greetings, I have been patiently waiting (or waiting patiently) for y'all to start rumors about the new 2025 Chinese New Year set. Here are my 2 cents to get the ball rolling. According to Google, 2025 is the Year of the Snake. What does this mean? It sounds bad, as I'm from Australia and snakes are incredibly dangerous and not to be trusted. Avoid at all costs. However, reading up on a few websites, I have found out, after 3 seconds of searching, a few interesting things that could make Year of the Snake Lego sets pretty cool. I recall there was a Year of the Snake set in the past. In 2013 there was a set with a red snake designed by Xiaodong Wen, according to Brickset. My hopes in 2025 is to have a set or 2 based around old mythology stories. Cent 1) Year of the snake is associated with wisdom, intuition and elegance. Also good luck. Even a protector. However, this can be different in different parts of China. Some believe the snake is untrustworthy. Cent 2) There is a story about a young female snake, Bai Suzhen, that was saved by a mortal man, Xu Xian. She then spent her life trying to become human in order to find the man, now in his next life, and marry him. There seem to be different versions of the story (in one, she was already human when she first met him), so don't shoot me if you know a slightly different version. Either way, an interesting Lego set this could inspire. What are your thoughts?

Looking forward to getting some dark blue space torsos. I like the orange and blue above. I've just played around with gray in Studio and used trans-orange now that these visors are on Bricklink. Dark blue works with pinks too if someone is willing to try... I should add the green figure is a prototype from 1987 (which are now possible to make) that gave me the idea

If rumours (correct spelling :) ) are true, an F1 series will surely have Sir Jackie Stewart in his tartan cap. Would be great to get a torso with a Benetton logo, not necessarily a racing suit. How about a minifig of the flag waver Glen Dix (google him), from my home town of Adelaide- Australia's F1 racing venue from 1985 to 1995. Nigel Mansell with his big moustache, anyone? There's a lot of opportunity to celebrate the history and some of the behind the scenes characters of F1. We can dream....

Hi. I haven't seen any exclusives here. No official Lego store either as far as I know. That's why I went to 5 or 6 of them in Malaysia to see what BAM figs were available (not the main reason why I went to Malaysia of course) :) Hopefully things improve after the factory is built. Lego is very expensive here. My only advice is to look at stores such as "MyKingdom" which often has unsold CMF figs that your friend can try to feel or scan for the ones they want. Bit off topic but tell him to eat a bowl of Bun Cha in Hanoi :)

I'm not sure. It was in the Bam tower. Bit odd. Anyways, I saw hundreds of tan Labradors in the Bam there and a few newer torsos. No Green Queens that I remember. I live in Vietnam (English teacher) and no Bam at all here, from my observations, unfortunately. But they are building an actual bricks and mortar Lego factory here so there's hope yet

Speaking of parts availability (kind of), I found this misprinted head in Penang, Malaysia last week while on holiday. Looks like it's Christina Hydron from 2014! What adventures has she had over the past 10 years?? All other parts I saw at the stores were either the current pieces or ones from a few months ago.

Forestmen, forestwomen and forestnon-binary Straying from the Indy theme a bit, but just to reply- I'm hoping the new medieval markets set is a thing. And hoping to see 1 or 2 forest people there, walking around, trading with the castle townspeople

I’ve been living in Vietnam 4 years. Lego is 50% more expensive than Australia (where I’m from), which is already expensive unless you find a good sale. They get new sets very quickly here so it’s nice to window shop. Indiana Jones are still on shelves, not appearing to sell at all. They weren’t part of a recent sale, but I doubt I will buy them even if they are half price. I’ve bought the pieces I want from Bricklink. Many classic movies are problematic, but as a kid I loved the adventure, travelling, exploring in Indy movies. I loved forest people Lego as a child more than most other themes. I bought a couple of Adventure sets. Ninja Lego (pre-Ninjago) brought me back from my dark ages. I bought the first series of Indiana Jones, mainly for nostalgia. Most are unopened. I’ll sell them in future. My advice is, buy the sets you want (in multiples if you can). Who knows, in a thousand years, maybe they’ll be worth something (I’m sure someone’s already typed that on here). Or buy the individual pieces and build mocs. As others have said, we were lucky to get what we got at all. Enjoy what you have. Don’t think too much. Keep your eyes out for any Indy builds on Ideas and vote with your mouse/keyboard. Maybe mention them in this discussion if you see any Indy ideas you like. Anyone for a revival of forest people? It relates to off grid/sustainable living…

Part name: Bicycle forks. Part description: The front forks of a bicycle with a stud on top or a clip so we can make 3 or 4 wheeled bikes that actually have spinning wheels. Beats using a 1 x 1 tap. Usage: We'll be able to make carts or bikes with 3 wheels, etc. Part name: Oriental straw hat. Part description: Those hats that Asians wear in the fields etc. Tan or Dark tan would be great. Oxfords bricks made one but im sure Lego can do better. Usage: An authentic looking hat for our asian scenes. Better than using a radar dish. Part name: Round-about. Part description: 32 x 32 baseplate, similar to cross-roads, with studs in the middle. Usage: teaches kids road rules. Like Lego use to do. Part name: Panel 3 x 3 x 6 trans blue or trans black. Part description: as above. Usage: Gives us angled windows. Part name: Language specific street signs. Part description: A pack of Lego signs in different languages. One language per pack of course. Usage: Kids in Japan can buy a pack of Lego street signs with Japanese writing on them. Adult fans of Lego can buy them from Lego.com or Bricklink to create different country scenes. Part name: Pack of animals. Part description: A box of animals. One pack has Penguins, seals, walrusses (however its spelt). Another pack can have Kangaroos, koalas, platypus. Another pack can have ducks, roosters, swans, peacocks. Another pack can have prehistoric animals: saber tooth tiger, wooly mamoth etc. Another pack can have kamodo dragon, tiger, panda. Usage: endless amounts of usage. Teaches kids about animals. Part name: Umbrella Part description: A closed umbrella for minifigs to carry incase the weather turns (even though it never rains in Lego worlds) Usage: just adds realism which we all want. Part name: Slope corners with pointed eave. Part description: Oriental styled slopes that come to a raised point. see pic from oxford bricks. Usage: so we can make temples or even have an asian restaurant in a downtown lego city. Thanks. We all seem to just want more bits and pieces and more colours to make our lego scenes more realistic. The people have spoken. Up to you now Lego. Stop us from even thinking about deflecting over to lesser brands.
