…how did we go from a new Zelda set to fast food conspiracies?

Not accurate enough. They’d have to randomly insert a pink 1x1 plate into a single copy of the set

Only one set this summer is said to be a DC one, but we don’t know which one. But yeah, most likely another Batmobile

You’re welcome Oh shoot, I knew I had forgotten something!!

All of them. Well, minus the LEGO store build-and-take sets (which I never count anyway) and the SDCC stuff that luckily didn't have anything exclusive about it in this case, besides the packaging

Not sure if that would count Same IP, sure, but not really a return of the theme as such

We're about to get a $650 Pokémon set, so this isn't outrageous for a gaming IP Besides, we had other video game one-offs with a higher price tag, like the Atari 2600 or the Pac-Man arcade machine. I'm more curious what IP it could be! Hopefully another Nintendo one!

If Stonewars' list is correct, this theme will be based on a video game IP with a release date of October, so this one at least is unrelated to the CMF series. Your general point still stands though (apart form the weird "potential 2027 movie" thing that still perplexes me).

Been doing some digging, and 72306 (theme 'P') has flown under the radar since Stonewars had it listed as a set for a while now! The only details they provide is that it belongs to "Games" and is released in October. Could be an assumption on their end based on the number range, but we'll see. If it 's indeed based on a game, it has to be a new theme!

The tuxedo cat gets a companion in the form of 21376 Orange Cat! It's not a mere colour swap since it has a few more pieces! Kinda strange to see a follow-up to an Ideas set that is still part of the Ideas theme seemingly, unlike the FRIENDS apartments.

'B' is scheduled for June, 'Lollipop' for August, and 'P' is still unknown. They're all licensed. They wouldn't introduce a new in-house theme with so few sets, now would they

A Doomsday set in June already?! Weird, but I’ll take it

Here’s what we currently know: May 75438 Yoda Bust, $49.99 75439 Vader Bust, $59.99 75442 UCS Mando’s N-1, $239.99 75444 AT-RT (M&G), $44.99 75445 Anzellan Starship, $74.99 75446 Buildable Grogu, $129.99 75447 Razor Crest, $149.99 June 75453 Sandcrawler (M&G), $199.99 75454 AT-AT (M&G), $159.99 75458, ?, $69.99 75460 X-Wing (M&G), $69.99 75461 ? (M&G), $99.99 July 75459, ? (14+) Summer 75451 ?, $49.99 75455 Boba Fett, $169.99 September 75456 Advent Calendar, $44.99 And then we have a list of 9 sets, a few of which get released this year (maybe the 3 unknown ones?), the rest is for 2027. 2026/27 Buildable Yoda Giant minifig Vader Buildable Posters Icons of SW Bounty Hunter Pursuit (AOTC) Ewok Village X-Wing Microfighter Bespin Duel Anakin‘s JSF Oh, and a Battle of Hoth Smart Brick set, probably also next year.

If we got a Monsters Inc set beyond the BrickHeadz, it would be part of the Disney theme with its 43xxx set numbers, not 72xxx. TMNT is another distinct possibility, but for obvious reasons I’d prefer Spob to return

…damn it, you’re right!! That would’ve been awesome! Then again, wouldn’t it be weird to have a set where both of the included factions are evil?

We could theoretically create a new one, but only the mods can pin it and transfer comments, so it’d be kinda pointless. Guess we have to wait for @Clone OPatra to return!

One of the upcoming BrickHeadz sets features Mike, Sully, and Boo! Finally some proper Monsters Inc representation

The 45$ set is also based on M&G after all, and it’s the AT-RT!

Some news form Brick Tap / @TandNbricks: Theme codenamed "P": 72306, $159.99 Theme codenamed "B" (the one we've known about since August) 72421, 12+ 72422, 12+ 72423, 18+, $119.99 Codename "Lollipop" 72537 $69.99 It's a mix of new and returning IPs! One of them has to be K-Pop Demon Hunters for sure. I'm probably getting ahead of myself again, but the returning IP has to be SpongeBob, right?? Not many other options, and combined with the competitor's license having ended... Watch it be Power Puff Girls or another smaller theme and crush my dreams

Non-existing The sets for the first two movies didn’t do that well, sadly.

Fair point. If another theme got a calendar for the very first time this year, you could argue it would replace the HP one (like the MC one replacing the Marvel one and vice versa), but they’ve also introduced new calendars before without sacrificing existing ones (like the Disney one), so such a decision would likely have little to do with HP

Yeah, Blaze probably has the best chances out of all the missing characters! Why you little…!

Xmas is popular in Japan regardless of actual religion. Never heard of the KFC Xmas dinner tradition over there? I‘m not making it up!

I meant among the ones that haven‘t leaked yet

That‘s not the issue, my point is that it‘s a 4+ set. No clue what that would look like
