  1. FTFY The Minecraft sets are also scheduled for June and even though a lot of AFOLs don’t seem to care much for it, it’s still objectively a big theme So in total we have 4 big themes, Speed Champions, plus a new theme (Mickey & Friends). Yeah, not looking that good for a reveal today Exactly. It’s extremely unlikely a piece leaks this far in advance, otherwise we would already have seen Star Wars minifig leaks as well
  2. Very unlikely. After all, we have a rough concept plus a set name, not much wiggle room for anything but a collection of brick-built Hogwarts-related objects
  3. Popularity is of no concern here though As you point out yourself, 12 is the new standard we can expect all future series to adhere to, even Disney’s and HP’s respective potential third series. I’d be very surprised if they decided to increase the roster size again Not only that, but the last few series have all been officially revealed so late in the game that full boxes of them were already discovered in stores way before TLG even dropped the first teasers So why would they suddenly reveal them THIS early? Let alone this close to another series
  4. Nope, no reveals today, the usual time window has already closed hours ago Looks like they’re spreading out the reveals a bit more than usual
  5. Isn’t there an MCU thread for that sort of discussion? Agreed. We get new face and torso prints plus a recoloured hairpiece, that’s already more than can be said for many other Marvel minifigs Something like Cm4Sci’s design would be awesome of course, but that’s just not gonna happen outside of a CMF series
  6. 3 what though? Minutes? Hours? Days? Weeks? Centuries?
  7. We managed to do that all by ourselves It’s just Kingwong’s style to reveal minifigs in amusing ways (and a good way to protect himself from any copyright claims), us getting into a frenzy over it was certainly not his intention
  8. I know, but more accurate torso and head prints are more than enough for me
  9. I sure hope so, much cooler than the Hydra goons we got back in 2015
  10. Looks like a decent minifig Too bad there’s no moulded beard, but the new print is a good enough replacement in my book
  11. It’s in the set name though, there’s no room for errors like that
  12. People are going to have a meltdown when it turns out they're using the same old Ragnarok face print
  13. Kingwong is at it again Two thirds of the new Thor minifig appear to be in his latest pic with two penguins in the foreground (also a hint towards the DC D2C set maybe? Two hints/leaks in the same picture? Is that even legal? )
  14. The Shang-Chi sets are now available on US s@h, but no trace of them in Europe yet Hope they get added soon Replace “a bit” with one of the following expressions and then we can all agree with your statement: “very” “extremely” ”horrendously” “monstrously” “ridiculously” ”inhumanely” ”obscenely” ”flabberghastingly”
  15. Not to dunk on you, but as others have said, “a bit” is quite the understatement. Even non-essential joke characters like Sheriff Deadpool or Deadpool the Duck go for at least $300. Now imagine the prices for a sought-after minifig from a popular show You could at least double that price if not more, because some collectors would be willing to buy it no matter what, and the scalpers know it
  16. Harry has definitely seen some things Why another Hagrid after less than a your though?
  17. So the rumours of a 4- and a 3-pack were correct then?
  18. Oh really? TLBM S2 levels or lower? Either way, doesn’t exactly bode well for the future of this theme
  19. @lego_guyon02: Thanks a lot for the list These sound pretty decent I have to say, and it's nice to see that there's at least the possibility for some of these to be movie-based Though I have to say, the preliminary name of 76940 cracks me up, sounds like they're escaping from a fossil Or maybe it's a follow-up to the T-Rex mech set, but a fossil mech this time
  20. Good question. With movie tie-ins, we at least have some perimeters, but since this is most likely a wave of made-up sets, they could be pretty much anything ...well, not exactly “anything”. Random dark blue vehicles, park attractions, and/or scenery
  21. Nope, that’s the Duplo set (10939) They would never release a set with a T-Rex + Triceratops for only $40, especially not a 4+ one
  22. I think sand blue was a good choice, makes it stand out more Sure, the BARC speeder is a bit unnecessary, but I don’t mind it too much. After all, Crosshair needs a ride too Speaking of which: isn’t it a bit silly they just gave him a regular long blaster instead of something ressembling his sniper rifle? And I wonder which set might have been cancelled... Maybe the unknown $30 one?
