trekgate502 Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 RI wave 2. Swoosh. Re-release of Mars Rover with variant packaging based on the new mission. Ah come on guys! Quote
Guest TabbyBoy Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 Lego have managed to cut production costs by half and all sets will now be reduced by 50% on 01OCT and beyond to screw up the current aftermarket. Either that or they will not allow eBay listings above RRP. BTW... the new 70179 looks awesome! Quote
inversion Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 (edited) I could bet my kidney that it will be the next Ideas set. Edit: Also spacemen theme is unlikely because it would be a regular series so we would have already heard a rumour about it if it was true. It is most likely a standalone set.

bricker123 Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 Could it be a new TV cartoon program based on the spacemen, and of course with that comes with the new space-theme sets. Not sure when is the last time Lego offer those classic spacemans,white (classic promo) or green (EXO) in a set while if they were to relaunch this theme, the exo and the classic spaceman promo seems like a good indicator.

33Lego Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 UCS MF is back you know I am joking. Quote
Mynatt Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 Seriously? Am I the only one who sees the Fantastic 4 logo there? The 4 most likely relates to the 4th day of the countdown rather than a fantastic 4 reference. Quote
mscheaf Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 The 4 most likely relates to the 4th day of the countdown rather than a fantastic 4 reference. So when it says three tomorrow I can't assume it's a new Three Musketeers theme? Or Three's Company? Quote
Alpinemaps Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 I could bet my kidney that it will be the next Ideas set.

I'm coming back here on Friday to collect on your kidney. Quote
Guest eightbrick Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 (edited) 99% likely to be official announcement of Bionicle. If you open the image in google plus it's titled "bionicle 4" (credit to the folks over at EB for finding this). '> The six colors for the six toa most likely.

We will find out what the announcement is on Friday. Quote
marcandre Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 That 4 can only mean one thing. THE HORSEMEN ARE BACK 6 Quote

If you open the image in google plus it's titled "bionicle 4" (credit to the folks over at EB for finding this). '> The six colors for the six toa most likely. That's a pretty solid point, someone on brickset comments was saying that the colors are all the classic space men colors released up to date and also the satellite in the background to present classic space, but you reason sounds pretty good!

TheOrcKing Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 Doctor Who, the return of Bionicle, maybe even the minifigure scale Minecraft sets paving the way for a real "Minecraft" theme instead of the little offshoots of the original CUUSOO set. Who knows? Not even The Shadow.... Quote
hendrikdejager Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 (edited) It is indeed Bionicle... what a bummer. Huge screw up on Lego's side to leave the name in the file, someone is gonna get fired Edited September 15, 2014 by hendrikdejager Quote
KShine Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 Couldn't "Huge" be the official Jurassic Park announcement? Quote
dubzero Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 It is indeed Bionicle... what a bummer. Huge screw up on Lego's side to leave the name in the file, someone is gonna get fired Could Lego be giving us a 'head fake'? That seems to be too obvious of a screw up to leak that. Quote
trekgate502 Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 I think this all shows how much and different we all want in new lego sets. All input has been very exciting. I hope it doesn't disappoint. Quote
Mynatt Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 Now is this announcement going to have an impact on all fans or just mediocre fans that just follow lego on FB and Instagram. this could be a Huge announcement toward kids of having minecraft lego sets while on the other hand it's not so huge to us AFOLs because we already know. Things seem to get leaked one way or another, but if they pull it off like they did with the exo suit and throw everyone off on how big of an announcement it is, then hats off to lego because it's hard to keep Huge things secret in this day and age of technology.

Vegito1338 Posted September 16, 2014 Posted September 16, 2014 I'm surprised Lego doesn't do something like give people slightly different preliminary pics to narrow down leaks. They've got em real bad. Quote
spener90 Posted September 16, 2014 Posted September 16, 2014 I hope it's a fake... Although the piece that is used behind the 4 is one that is consistently used with Bionicle sets. My only thought is, it's a sad day when a Bionicle announcement is considered "huge"... 1 Quote
mario.lalonde Posted September 16, 2014 Posted September 16, 2014 You don't say it's a "HUGE" news when it's not for new stuff... And the 4 is for 4 days until friday... How you can do is speculate... And Bionicle? Forget about that, it's not "HUGE" or even popular... If I had to bet on something, I bet on stuff for the new star wars theme to be reveal... Quote
trekgate502 Posted September 16, 2014 Posted September 16, 2014 It has to be Bionicle look at the file name on google + for the graphic. If so, I am disappointed but that is ok. At least I got my tumbler with spaceman & chima in tonight shipped from LEGO Shop at Home. NMM I did think you were Internet CEO or at least I always look up to you for the latest advice in catching things on the internet for all things Lego. I could not from my iPad but I PDF'd the whole thing on my mac and have a local PDF to refer to. Quote
Noodlenut Posted September 16, 2014 Author Posted September 16, 2014 (edited) I have a feeling, considering the title of the image, that the announcement will actually be Bionicle - but considering the background, I think that LEGO will be announcing the return of Bionicle as a theme, but I think that there will also be a TV show to go with it. Honestly, I'm extremely disappointed if it has anything to do with Bionicle. I've never liked the theme, and don't enjoy clicking a bunch of ball joints together.

Ed Mack Posted September 16, 2014 Posted September 16, 2014 Has anyone seen the new images of Bionicle sets? http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=6&ved=0CBoQFjAF&url=http%3A%2F%2Fttvpodcast.com%2Fpost%2F97506243822%2Fbionicle-2015-set-images-leaked-today-weve-got&ei=RpMXVMWBGozmsASx8oGwBg&usg=AFQjCNGXsB9-JTYmm9PniA1M1mWYXXCXIA&sig2=8t1-33D_xr5KIA4xOao-Ow Quote
