As @psqidexslizer points out, there is no such rumour. It’s only been speculated because of the Metropolis sticker in the Arkham set. The Superheroes D2C is actually rumoured to be a Helicarrier

Call me cynical, but the fact they’re resorting to do PLANTS is further evidence they’re running out of ideas That and redoing Dobby already. I know Fantastic Beasts has been banned forever due to previous sets assumed performance, but no Niffler? That would surely sell way better than another Dobby. Don’t get me wrong, the plants could do well - just look at the Botanical Collection - but it still feels a bit like they’re scratching the bottom of the barrell of ideas. That said, I expect the execution to be on the usual high level

Thirded! 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!

The list hasn’t surfaced yet, but I suppose it’ll drop soon since we’ve seen the 2HY lists for most themes now. Animal Crossing for instance is also missing ^^

Word. Kinda funny how much of a rarity non-red-five X-Wings are! Fingers crossed for a more unique colour scheme too.

Hmmm. The East Wing could be interesting, but the rest sounds a bit meh, honestly. 2026 will thus be the first year where I clearly prefer the 1HY wave

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.

Fingers crossed!! We don’t know if he’s in the movie though, so the set may come with Trapper Wolf instead, who is confirmed to appear. Wouldn’t say no to a Filoni minifig Also seems like a good set opportunity for Zeb and/or Ward!

I dunno, purposeful leaks just don’t strike me as realistic As soon as a licenser is involved, things get hairy. Wouldn’t they need to gain permission, leaving a potential paper trail? And all that effort just to see the reaction of the few people who even care about leaks in the first place? It’s not like they can still incorporate any feedback, and creating buzz for sets that are still 8 months away doesn’t make much sense either. Just my two cents The only proven leak like that I can think of was the Deadpool test footage, courtesy of Ryan Reynolds himself. And that was a rogue maneuver!

It’s been 15 years, so I’d say so They’ve never referred to a regular series as “classic” or any other such term. To me, calling out a regular series like that would only make sense if we hadn’t seen one for years

The source is pure-gaming.fr, which is where all the recent set names came from

Oh whoops, I didn’t realise there’s another rumoured set! Judging by the price, it’s probably also an 18+ set ^^

I think you guys are right and the Dobby set could actually be a remake of Dobby’s Release. The set has a similar piece count as the 2023 buildable Dobby, and so far, remakes of buildable figures mostly had a different scale to set them apart from their precursors. A same-scale remake only 3 years later would be quite silly Or maybe it’s a Shell Cottage set with his grave

It’s Luigi and his kart ^^

Sorry, couldn’t resist At this point we should probably give up I think It’s been almost 6 years!

Knockturn Alley and the big Hogwarts expansion should both include a patronus, and if Dobby is indeed a buildable figure, I expect one of the two unknown sets to be a playset. Maybe even both, since we also have the House Symbol and whatever the plant set is as buildable objects / creatures to fulfill the quota Moreover, the D2C set surely features a patronus too since the Hogwarts Icons set also tied into the anniversary. Thus I’m leaning towards at least 3 or 4 patroni this summer ^^

The redesigned baby animals are so adorable!!! I hope they’ll appear in sets next year!

I think they‘ll want to keep some of the minifigs exclusive to the Baratie, so Mihawk is pretty unlikely. Fingers crossed for Smoker and Tashigi!

Not much traffic in this thread, but still Two of the 2HY sets are 21594 Skeleton and 21595 Ender Dragon ^^ Another Ender Dragon already? Meh. The skeleton is probably a statue in scale with last year‘s Creeper

Not that I’m defending them, but how is it a swindle? People get what they pay for, no? If someone pays $100 for a minifig they could get in a currently available set, that’s kinda their problem Sets geared towards kids between 2012 and 2014 when new movies actively came out didn’t do super well, while sets geared towards adults a decade later without any new movies being around (ignoring RoP and the upcoming HfG) do really well. They could still release smaller sets later on, but there’s an easy conclusion to draw from the above

The idea of Sigourney Weaver just playing herself in the movie got a good chuckle out of me Aren’t the RC & Anzellan ship scheduled for May and the Sandcrawler & AT-AT for June? ^^

Finally some set names: 75644 Giants of Elbaf (shouldn’t it be spelled Elbaph?) ($70) 75643 Tony Tony Chopper ($70) 75646 Garp’s ship ($170) Interesting they went for Garp’s ship specifically. Makes sense though, with the iconic dog figurehead ^^ Hopefully it still comes with some S2 minifigs! Glad to see Dorry and Brogy getting their own set!

And we now know how they could justify the new piece for Babu Frik in the AC The M&G sets sound very exciting to me!

Ohhhhh, good point!! I just assumed it was gonna be a remake of the 2023 figure, but you’re right, based on the set name it could be a playset! A wave without at least one buildable figure is suspicious though. At least one of the unknown sets has to be one!

YES!! Awesome news!! Time to recreate the staring Luigi meme!
