Not as depressing as another one whose funeral we should be planning

“Space” might also just be a codename A certain theme has its 25th anniversary, so who knows

We’re getting another 3-set Spidey wave in March: 10792 ($11) 10793 ($20) 10794 ($55) Hopefully with more new characters than this year

Well, scratch that, according to brickmerge, these are all scheduled for March. Looks like my prediction was wrong, as there doesn’t seem to be a uniform gimmick, given these varying prices. …unless they’re gimmicks at different price points of course Mechs and construction figures anyone?

Hopefully. They can’t leave the job unfinished! We still need Roy

Surprise surprise, no Indy sets in 2024 Time to organise the funeral

The CMF series scheduled for next May is codenamed “Space”. Are you guys thinking what I’m thinking? Ok, wishful thinking, but still.

According to brickmerge, there’s a new theme coming next March with the set numbers 77046 to 50. Could this be a licensed theme? The numbers are pretty close to the Indy ones from this year (77012-77015)

The only reason to release an 18+ Durmstrang ship would be to have a large-scale model, which this isn’t. Maybe it’s the sorting hat from the survey leak? Also, this seems too large for a March wave. This has to include some 2HY stuff too. Glad to see so many smaller sets!

Fair point. I‘m still willing to die on that hill though

We have the 2024 1HY list, thanks to @Lego_Minecraft_Goat: 21251: Steve’s Desert Expedition 21252: The Armory 21253: The Animal Santuary 21254: The Turtle Beach House 21255: The Nether Portal Ambush 21256: The Frog House 21257: Showdown against the Devourer (Minecraft Legends) Sounds exciting! More mob houses are always welcome and it’s nice to see another Nether portal set. Fingers crossed for some camels!

Same! There’s just something about the shape that’s really cool to me. The similarly-shaped TIE Silencer and TIE Whisper are among my favourites too. Too bad the latter was never released as a set Also, I’m not sure what people were expecting out of a 1HY UCS set. Those are always on the cheaper side (so no MBS) and them being mostly OT-based shouldn’t come as a surprise anymore Sure, next year marks the 25th anniversary of TPM, but do you see a 40th anniversary ROTJ UCS set on shelves? By this point it should be clear that movie anniversaries are a non-factor, except for smaller tie-in sets like dioramas.

Yeah, those ideas are definitely 2HY material Maybe the Thorin hairpiece would’ve worked? It hasn’t been used since 2016 though and it doesn’t exist in light bluish grey. A recolour might have broken the budget for an AC, so the Dumbledore hairpiece was the easiest option

Also, I’m glad I don’t have to eat a Deadpool minifig But that was probably the safest bet I’ve ever taken in my life

Which would be funny, considering that Stitch was among the options people could vote on for the 150th Brickhead Well, they never said they wouldn’t also release the runner-ups eventually

Since more and more 2024 set lists are getting out, what do you have on your HP bingo cards? I’m playing it safe and say 4 gimmick sets based on the Hogwarts houses, 1 new type of gimmick à la trunk, and a final small expansion to the current Hogwarts style

According to @Brick Clicker, the warbird set is part of the Infinity Saga subtheme, so yeah, no High Evolutionary. Would be a good opportunity for Kraglin though!

According to @Brick Clicker, the 1HY UCS set is going to be a TIE Interceptor Decent choice, I think. Funny how we haven't seen a non-microscale interceptor in years and now we get two of them in a row in different scales

Now all we need are additional Marvels and Quantumania sets to fix this year's villain issues Yeah, I know, that's not happening. But at least we have Lizard to look forward to, and maybe High Evolutionary too if we're lucky! And a dozen Venoms

It's kinda ridiculous we have 2024 rumours already, and yet still don't know what those two October sets are A buildable Stitch sounds neat!

Another NWH set and another GotG one? Where do I get in line? I hope these two can correct some errors of the past. Or present Only one Cap 4 set is rather disappointing though

I’m ok with yet another Clone BP under two conditions: For the love of Ole, please no 501st. I’m sick and tired of them Just do any other legion. Have some variety. BPs with identical troopers are boring to me. Shouldn’t be too hard. Best case for me would be Bly’s 327th

I love this idea!! It’s also something thst could continue for quite a while, given how many beasts there are.

I think there’s going to be three sets: Batman vs Joker Batman vs Joker 4+ Batman vs Jok… Harley Quinn

Exactly!! Sure, the two shows were not quite as well-received as Mando is, as @Classic_Spaceman points out, but both of them still have a lot of set potential. For instance, a set with a Rancor, a Scorpenek, Cad Bane, Krrsantan, Din, Boba, and Pyke soldiers would print money, regardless of how the show was perceived. This whole sequence was basically Filoni, Favreau, and Rodriguez smashing all their toys together, so of course it would make for an excellent toy But yeah, it’s probably too late now. I hope Ahsoka gets treated a bit better! Skeleton Crew might be a one-off too, so they’d better include all the main characters here Good thing that’s actually doable with a set of this size
