The Year of the Rooster set revealed
Posted by Huw,
Next year is the Chinese Year of the Rooster and as it has done in previous years, LEGO is producing a set to commemorate the new year.
This image of next year's set has surfaced in a WeChat post by China LUG. Apparently it is being given away to those who were born in a previous Year of the Rooster (2005, 1993, 1981, ...) by completing a coupon that is available at the Shanghai LEGO store. Let us hope it is also made available for sale.
Thanks to spicypig for the news.

I wish these were more widely available! I love this set!
I feel like those eyes are going to be very useful for some people.
I need this as I was born in the year of the Rooster.
What is interesting is that the coupon that needs filling is a tad optimistic about life spans, as it lists all the Year of the Rooster dates all the way back to 1909 - 107 years ago!
That 2x2 corner plate looks new...
@WillKirkby That 2x2 corner plate was used in the LEGO Dimensions video game, but it looks like now it is in production.
I am also a Rooster in the Chinese zodiac from 1993. Shame I can't get over to the Shanghai store for this. I love the saucery eyes and large quantity of curved pieces
I was born on the year of the tiger.
looks like i have to wait for another five years for the tiger
My sign is the Rooster as well, not sure I will be able to get to Shanghai to pick up one of these though.
I'm a dragon myself, but I don't really know when the next year of the dragon will be. But as these sets are not available over here anyway, so what.
Lol I want the eyes just so I can make more custom Mixels
