Thanks for the news! I really like the majority of the vehicles included in the winter wave. But the great Tractor ist so missing a (new) trailer and cries for more Farm sets. Which concerns the Summer wave, I'm the most curious about the Yellow Backhoe Loader and the Pizza Delivery with Vehicles. Hopefully there will be a delivery car this time. Do you think that the new tandem cycle (from Friends new this year) will be included in a non-Friendish color, too? But what I really miss in the list are HOUSES - where are they (gone)?!

1. Like the MTS was teasered with words in the instructions of the LKC, there was a hint towards a knights' tournament in the instructions of the MTS. 2. Lego released two retro Castle sets with an interval of two years, so this year should be the next one. 3. There had been two throwbacks to Castle sets in the Icons theme in the last years: a castle and a town square. So what's missing? A village and a tournament. Village buildings would be too close to the cheese dairy in the MTS - so consequently a tournament is the most likeky. It could be some re-design of past tournament sets, e. g. 383, 6060 or 10223. I personally hope that there'll be a building included, too, to add it to the MTS.

I know that I'm in the minority with this here, but, like the Ideas Blacksmith Shop, I don't like the Alchemist one, too. Still hoping for some news on the Icons knights' tournament set - I really hope it didn't get cancelled.

Thanks for the news! 🙂 It seems as if 2026 - like 2025 - will be an absolute wage freeze for me concerning Creator. I miss the time when there had been mininum one City compatible building! 😢

Thanks for the news! A regular, unlicensed CMF series in 2026 sounds great! Hopefully we'll get a new food costume and a musician with a new moulded musical instrument.

Thanks for the news! I agree what concerns the dump truck. Personally, I hope that the hospital will be the 6+ set and the 8+ will be some sort of Main street or town square since some shops for the inner city are absolutely overdue. The 5+ set will supposably be something smaller with less bricks - maybe another skatepark or finally an open-air public swimming pool? Yes, cargo and passenger train sound logical. Only theoretically one of these Trains sets could be a trackside structure, too.

I can't agree more. Even the last WV train from 2016 IS much better. I better spend the money on something good (non-Lego).

Thanks for the news! 🙂 I'm totally disappointed by this new Winter Express Train - it has so many design mistakes and does look really, really cheap. Last year's Santa's Post Office already had been bad. But with this new Winter Express Train, Lego drives our beloved Winter Village finally against the wall! 👎 I really, really hope that next year's WV set will be something completely new and designed very well (like the older WV sets), otherwise Lego WV ist dead for me. 😥

It's strange - Brickmerge lists four CNY sets for next year: 80118 Chinese New Year – 80 Euros (December 2025) 80119 Chinese New Year – 100 Euros (December 2025) 80120 Chinese New Year – ? Euros (May 2026) 80121 Chinese New Year – ? Euros (May 2026) I didn't buy any CNY set this year since there had only been display sets. So I hope that 2026 will see minimum one big nice building to add to your (Chinese) town. What are your thoughts?

This year marks a bad turn concering new unlicensed animal molds: We did get four small (cockatoo, special cat, pigeon, fox), only one medium sized (wolf) and no single big new unlicensed animal mold. (In contrast, 2021 saw five new animal molds only in the City theme!!!!) The next CMF series being all only animal costumes, but no single animal, takes already away the chance to get some new unlicensed animals from CMF series in 2026. And I fear that the rest of the year won't loook better. This is really a pity since Lego has done so many great new unlicensed animal molds in the past years that I was looking forward to this trend continuing ...

Yes, I could well imagine these. Plus I really hope for some civilian buildings (esp. shops) for the summer wave. With Lego releasing only two new and very small animals molds for City 2025, I'm very pessimistic which concerns new and esp. big animals for 2026. That we'll get some sort of new animal based theme like Outback, Forest or again Savannah is imo regrettably excluded.

Thanks for the news! These are exactly my thoughts, too. I understand that WV fans who don't own the older sets, should get the chance to buy some similar sets for a reliable price these days (plus Lego catches with this new WV fans). But nevertheless those who had been collecting some WV sets since the beginning should imo get the chance to buy some really new stuff these days in order to let the WV grow smartly. So why not making a sequence of two years? One year is a re-design of an older WV set (e. g. train this year) and the second year is a completely new set (e. g. candy shop)? This would do justice to old as well as new WV fans. What are your thoughts? Yes, I think that the engine will be bigger this time, too. I bet it will be mostly black (because of the in two parts devided windscreen appearing in black in some summer set). And in contrast to last time, I guess we will see no cargo and passenger waggon, but "only" two passenger waggons. I imagine a train similar to 7715 Push-Along Passenger Steam Train, but with Christmas decoration. But I hope that there'll be a very small station included. Why? Because this is the second year in a row that we get a re-designed WV set. Next year we do really need something completely new!!!!

Thanks for the news! Police Train, Lego Van, Taxi and Fries Food Truck sound very promising! I hope that the Airport will be Winter themed, so it would go nicely with the Emergency Airplane of this year and some Winter Village sets. And hopefully the Cement Mixer as well as the Airport Fire Truck will both have telescopic arms with cannons (for cement / water) on it - otherwise these vehicles would be too similar to older ones and therefore not interesting for me. Since the Airport Fire Truck is that huge (from price and size), could there also be a small burning plane included? Btw: According to Brickmerge, the Police Train and the F1 set are for sale firstly in March.

Hello everybody! It seems as if we're getting a whole new Sports theme for March 2026. Thanks to Brickmerge these are the infos so far: 43020 Special Edition – Sports – 180 Euros (12+) 43019 Special Edition – Sports – 120 Euros (10+) 43018 Special Edition – Sports – ?? Euros (10+) 43017 Special Edition – Sports – ?? Euros (10+) 43016 Special Edition – Sports – 80 Euros (10+) 43015 Special Edition – Sports – 80 Euros (10+) 43014 Special Edition – Sports – 90 Euros (14+) 43013 Special Edition – Sports – 80 Euros (10+) 43012 Special Edition – Sports – 80 Euros (10+) 43011 Special Edition – Sports – 80 Euros (10+) With this list, some questions appear: 1. Will all these sets be NIKE licensed? (I personally don't need, but could well imagine.) 2. Will there be only playsets or also some exhibits (like this year's summer three NIKE sets)? (With so many sets, I can't imagine all to be only exhibits.) 3. Could it be that there are collectible sets of different international sports groups? (I personally would hate this.) 4. Are we going to see a new soccer stadium, devided into several sets (so in principle modular)? What do you think?

The "Main Station" is garbage. But (apart from some minor things) I really like the Arctic Express Train. After this very special train, I do really hope for a firefighters' train to be the next (specialized) train very soon. And after this a train track repair train and then a police train.
