  1. Promobricks will reveal new intel about the Mando sets later today Those are my most anticipated SW sets in 1HY, so I hope those two will deliver!
  2. Out of all the potential Hagrid’s Hut remake ideas, this is my favourite, mostly because we’d then have modern versions of both incarnations of the hut plus the creature potential of a PS version would be the highest bar none We definitely need Norberta and Fang! Ok, we the former was technically included in the 2019 hut, but come on This would also be a good opportunity for a regular Hagrid fig to appear in a set after a two-year hiatus! Although my most anticipated Hagrid-related set idea would still be the Battle of the Seven Potters. After this year, it looks more likely than ever!
  3. Not really. Shrek‘s ears are very distinctive and iconic; so much so that they’re part of the logo. The Skrull ears are too far removed from that in my opinion To think that we could’ve had a Shrek minifig had Dimensions continued for a third year…
  4. Apparently, it isn‘t. From what I‘ve read, the viewership is ten times lower compared to the other shows, which isn‘t surprising in the slightest Doesn‘t bode well for more sets, which for once doesn‘t bother me too much. The only characters in this show I want minifigs of appear elsewhere anyway
  5. *insert stop stop he‘s already dead meme here* Ouch. I will never forgive whoever came up with that Tower of Fate bullsh*t
  6. Not sure those books really are an indication of a new Voldy minifig. One of them gets published in Q2, so right when the 2HY sets are released, and books like that don‘t usually include minifigs that are this recent. Then again, the minifig being blacked out is curious… Maybe it‘s the one from the new AC?
  7. Did something leak on IG? I still can‘t see any posts (other than the top 9) under the usual hashtag How long until that bug gets fixed?!
  8. …grasping at straws, aren‘t we? When was the last time a random book illustration actually foreshadowed an upcoming set/minifig?
  9. Didn‘t they announce last year that Vidiyo would return in 2023 in a new form (which is speculated to be Dreamzzz)? I‘m just a bit sceptical that the leaked parts belong to the cancelled 2022 wave Wasn‘t the cancellation announced well before set production would have started? And why do they leak now rather than last autumn? Then again, both parts fit the leaked set names, so maybe they really were catching dust for a year in a factory somewhere
  10. How about neither I prefer non-remakes
  11. A new witch hat piece with long hair leaked, probably from the revived Vidiyo theme (or Dreamz), judging by the translucent hair colour. Is there a character a recolour of this could be used for in upcoming HP sets? Can‘t think of any
  12. …something tells me a successful theme with 20+ sets every year will not be killed simply because two sets underperform (if they even do so in the first place) THE HULKBUSTER DIDN’T SELL? SHUT DOWN THE ENTIRE THEME FOREVER
  13. Nvm, my sis sent me the picture That looks seriously impressive! Not sure I‘ll be able to display it where I initially wanted
  14. Too bad IG still doesn‘t show anything but the top 9 posts, I‘d like to see it
  15. That rumour turned out to be fake While having minifigs of „book-exclusive“ characters would be nice, I‘d rather they focus on filling the remaining gaps in the movies for the time being
  16. Huh, didn’t realise there’d be a 10-month gap in-between movies with the Blade delay. Luckily, there is still a lot of potential for more Infinity Saga sets in the meantime. Also, NWH. Just saying Come on TLG, it‘s right there!
  17. I doubt Blade would get more than two sets, so I‘m not be sure why this delay is supposed to affect the 2023 set list in any major way
  18. An actual Fortnite set… What a time to be alive
  19. The May D2C set perhaps? Not much left except for that (and the two Mando sets)
  20. As @AD_Bricks points out, this would be too expensive because metallic silver parts are most likely more costly to produce than others. But there‘s an additional issue: the number of parts available at any given point is limited for logistical reasons (i.e. warehouse storage). That includes both recolours and printed parts. The number of parts required for the entire set to be realised in metallic silver would be simply INSANE
  21. Huh Well that‘s a bit of a bummer. At least we‘re getting a new IW minifig-scale version in January as a consolation prize
  22. I think we can assume all of the Disney sets to have that branding next year (except for Marvel, Star Wars, Avatar, and Indy perhaps. Or maybe on the side of the box somewhere for these four themes). That branding doesn‘t tell us whether the sets will have minifigs or not though
  23. Boy, I‘m so glad it‘s the Hulkbuster after all, as opposed to an unwieldy ship taking away too much space. This will prove very easy to display for me Also, I prefer the IW design, so I‘m glad we now have both versions as D2C sets! Can‘t wait to see it, and I’m especially curious about its stability. The last one toppled over more than once
  24. I‘m not getting excited until we learn whether these will include minifigs or minidolls If it‘s the former, this could be a gold mine!
  25. Yeah, pretty much what I expected So we‘ll be waiting for quite a while before hearing more news!
