Official details of 1QY 2024 sets

I’ll be picking up a handful of those SW battle packs to army build, the Tantive Boarding for its epic scene, and Grogu’s escape to get a the new Jedi. Thanks for saving my wallet so in 2024 TLG.

That's a whole lot of Ninjago mecha.

I imagine this is going to be a lot like the Nexo Knights, where the primary aspect of the line was that every character had a small personal mech suit (and you could combine and add extra weapons and such).

" @jackthenipper @johleth No mention of ISABELLE? Wow."

Characters like Isabelle aren't really considered the same as villagers, they are "special characters", I wouldn't be surprised if Isabelle was in several different sets, each in a different outfit."

I'd call that a requirement!

Nothing too excitin, so I can cathc up with ths year's sets in early 2024. See ya, 75384 !

Cannot wait for the dune set!

The Planet Earth and Moon in Orbit sounds interesting if it's done well and is presumably motorised.

I'm also liking the sound of the Pair of Parrots Art set and the Cherry Blossom should be good... so long as it's not just a tin of shoe polish!

Eh, with so many special characters and 400+ villagers, I would prefer to see as many different characters as possible and not just the Nooks and Isabelle in every other set.

There are a couple of fairly large sets in the list, so I'm thinking that quite a few characters will be included. One of the sets has to be the Town Hall.

Interesting City Space sets too by the sounds of things, "Space Rover with Aliens"! Lego City's first contact?

"More daffodils. Why is the current set retiring so early? There are thousands of kinds of flowers, and already Lego are repeating themselves. Haven't gone for these single flower set, much prefer the bouquets. But the cherry blossom sounds good."

It's basically the identical set but in non 18+ branding so it fits with all the other small botanical sets on shelves in more colourful boxes.

Cherry Blossoms is a brand new set though :)

I Think that LEGO should do another Hanna-Barbera set with Jonny Quest, because next year will be his 60th birthday!

Another expensive quarter for me then. No way am I passing on a Tantive IV.

Another R2 D2 ? Didn't they make one last year ?

Really curious to see the Ornithopter... I hope it's based on the one they used to escape and not the military model. I found its design much more interesting.

Let's see if 2024 will get Technic out of its 5 year rout.

The battle pack. Finally a battle pack that if rumors are true will contain two good sized factions to fight against each other.

I wanna see Buildable Droideka. I think that is the only machinery I loved from the prequals, that and the Amidala'a first starship.

For Grogu's Escape, do you think they'll give us a Jar Jar head so as to be able to choose which character we want Ahmed Best to portray?

I've never been interested in Technic before but 42179 might change that for me.

I'm surprised there wasn't any Fortnite, as Lego and Fortnite are about to have a big collaboration in November.

I really want the Lego Store set run by Tom Nook. He will have some good offers with GWP.

Only House Harkonnen will prevail

I'll wait for more details before getting excited about any of them, but at least the Midi-scale Tantive IV sounds tempting, since that's my favorite scale for Star Wars ships.

Hoped for something Midde-earth related. Alas.

Of everything listed, only midi-scale Tantive IV caught my attention.

These Friends sets seem quite promising as well. And at least one is set in space - Perhaps Olivia returning as an adult like Mia did?

It would be amazing if the buildable Droideka was essentially an updated rerelease of 8002 - I have a huge soft spot for those old Technic Star Wars sets and the Destroyer Droid is one of the best suited to that style - but I suppose that's pretty unlikely. We'll see, I guess.

I'm looking forward to the new battle pack, polybags, and cheap Ninjago and Dreamzzz sets. Although I still haven't picked up either of the last two clone battlepacks. I already have two old 501st packs, and a 332nd so I'm still on the fence if I really need more of them. I'm hoping the polybags are as good as this year's have been. Zane looks to be getting the microbuild rather than the Minifigure polybag unfortunately. I guess I can expect it to be Kai or Lloyd for the thousandth time. Some of the other polybags sound really good, like the space hoverbike.

As a massive Shock Trooper/Coruscant Guard fan who doesn't want to buy the gunship, I'm really hoping the Grogu's Escape set will be similar in style to 75324 , including 3~ Shock Troopers

THERE'S Knuckles!

So far none of these are must-haves for me (a relief to my poor bank account).

Of course, that could change depending on how some of these sets look, which minifigures are included, or how they're priced.

But like always, I'm happy for those folks who are excited!

"May your blade chip and shatter" -LEGO to my wallet

The space Technic sets sound really cool . . . can't wait to see pictures of them.

The midi Tantive IV is definitely the most exciting.

I'm also really curious about the Space items, but those are harder to look forward to without pictures or more detailed descriptions.

YES! No interesting sets outside the battle pack! Hooray for saving money.

I hope the boonta Eve Podrace diorama will have some new figs. But i am afraid it’ll be like the endor biker scout pursue.

Tantive stuff should be cool

Rumored Animal Crossing and Xmen sets are on my radar

I’m definitely looking forward to the buildable Destroyer Droid and the battle pack maybe the midi-scale Falcon. Also I’ve heard that the Tantive IV boarding was rumored, according to Promobricks, to be like the Dark Trooper Attack.

The battle pack is supposed to include 3 Plain P2s and 1 Coruscant Guard so that might suffice. However,. I would expect Grogu's escape to include one or two sincel they'll already be in two sets. Since it's a $30 set, I don't know if I would expect more than two because that would put it at 5 figures(Beq, Grogu, 3 clones).

Very interested in the Ornithopter.
And must gets for me, MIDI-scale Tantive and the boarding diorama.
Oh plus the Technic orrery.

I'm looking forward for the three Technic space sets and what looks like to be an orrery. There are apparently some funky 'space/UFO' sets coming in the City line as well.

And while all this is good, I'm always hoping for some interesting new parts and/or parts recolour - which means I'm open to any and all themes as a source of goodies.

I don't do much Star Wars (for space reasons - no space to put them really) but the destroyer droid might be too appealing to pass - we'll see, compared to 8002.

Lots of space sets everywhere!! (City, Classic, Technic, Creator, Friends, etc)

It'll be interesting to find out. Hopefully, they'll do something a little different to add to the variety of clones. The 501st were the ones trying to stop the escape with the CG pursuing afterward.

I don't remember any cool regimental officers involved in the scene. Nevertheless, perhaps they will use some artistic license to add someone.

A buildable R2 unit... yes please... but aren't all Lego sets "buildable" or does it have a different meaning in this context?

"A buildable R2 unit... yes please... but aren't all Lego sets "buildable" or does it have a different meaning in this context?"

It’s a model like the BD-1, R2, and probe droid that were released in the past years. I’ve heard it’s supposed to have something extra for it because there’s already the 18+ R2

I'm most intrigued by 71472 Izzie's Hot Air Balloon and 71476 Zoe and Zian the Cat Owl.

Animal Crossing sets, eh? Well, I'm no great Animal Crossing fan, although I did buy the Gamecube Animal Crossing game years ago. It's in my huge 'games to be played' pile (which is not a literal pile).

As I said in a comment about the Piranha Plant set, I think it's a massive missed opportunity that Lego have not yet acquired the rights from Nintendo for any Zelda sets. Come on, Lego. I want to see a large Hyrule Castle set with minifigures of Link and Zelda.

By the way, people are referring to the Earth and Moon set as an orrery. It's not an orrery. It's more like a tellurion than an orrery.

I hope that the ambulance and rescue helicopter announced for City are regular sets and not 4+. Been waiting on an ambulance that wasn't a GWP or a part of another set for ages now.

Now that's what I call Podracing!

Is MIDI scale like the Destroyer that was released earlier this year? Or is it another scale?

Looks up "Unknown IP numbers"...so Fabuland, got it...:D

Nice SW listing, so many saved on my wallet.

I am excited for 75372 Clone Trooper & Battle Droid Battle Pack, 75378 Grogu's Escape
and maybe the 75387 Tantive IV Boarding Diorama

70000-1 Razcal's Glider being re-made as a Dune set!

I'm am curious about 76424 Flying Ford Anglia - Hope it's a nicely detailed set, and not as expensive as buying a real one...

Dune

"Tantive IV Boarding Diorama Sound the most interesting. Hopefully including the storm trooper head bang? "

The head bang happened on the Death Star, but now we have a funny idea for a new MOC, LOL.

I love that in this wave there is no sets that I would like to have a priori. Better for my wallet in times of economic inflation.

Animal Crossing sets would be a must-buy for me.

They seem pretty cheap based on the rumors (at least in USD) so that’s nice because I won’t be able to keep myself from buying them all before they retire.

I’m assuming the sets will be based on New Horizons, the newest AC game, but I still hope they make more sets based on the previous games of the series in the futrue.

@picopirate:
I like, and own copies of, the Lynch film (although that one did the absolute worst job of adapting the original text), the two Sci-Fi Channel miniseries, and the first half of the new adaptation. I don’t own any of them, but I’ve read all six of the original Frank Herbert books, but agree with a college friend’s assessment regarding the steep drop in quality after the first. And I played a borrowed copy of the first game. I know I’ve seen the second, but can’t remember if I actually played it or watched someone else doing it.

"It's a series of large objects made out of trees that are smashed, crushed to a pulp, bleached, pressed into incredibly thin sheets upon which old, hairless apes would print black ink figures. Your ancient forebears referred to them in strange guttural tones as 'booooooks'."

The IP certainly started out demonstrating the evolutionary progression from book to doorstop, but the set will almost certainly be based on the current movies.

If the ornithopter is minifigure scale, I'm in. Should be great.

@picopirate said:
" @GrizBe said:
"I guess I'm in the minority over the Dune set, as I didn't like the new movies. I much prefer the older 1984 David Lynch version, so I'm no excited for the Ornithopter.

As for the 'rumoured IP' sets, its not an IP I've got any interest in, but I can see how it'd be a big seller given its ready made fanbase.

Botanical sets will be interesting, especially the Cherry Blossom. The Technic sets, if the Earth and Moon one is an orbital armilary/astrolabe type thing, that'll be a fun build mechanically."

I too prefer the 1984 Dune, however the ornithopter in the latest film is very close to the version found in the Dune video game (the original adventure game, not Dune 2, the real time strategy game). I will just pretend the ornithopter is from the video game rather than the new movies."

I also prefer the 1984 Dune, but always great get more Dune, hopefully get more after original, dune3,4,5,6

If that ornithopter comes with figures I may just have to get it.

My strong suspicion about this, and Mario minifigs, and a bunch of less-often-demanded things, is that you shouldn't be saying "Come on, Lego," but "Come on, Nintendo."

I'm excited about all the sets with "Space" in their name, regardless of whether it's categorised under Creator, City, or Friends.

However, I'm specifically excited about these three sets:.

42605: Mars Space Base and Rocket - Olivia returns in a new Friends Space set! Yay!

60418: Police Truck with Laboratory - I've always loved mobile command centers / labs, I'm interested to see this one

75381: Buildable Droideka - As everyone else, I loved 8002 back in the day, so I'm quite interested in the new version.

Been staying away from star wars stuff for a while now.. tired of all the grey. But, these new mid scales are getting tempting. Also the droideka is my favorite droid... darn.

Animal Crossing? Zero interest here. TLG: my wallet thanks you

Hoping that the City Burger Truck is as good as the Pizza, Ice Cream and Slushy vans. The Monster Burger Truck was good, but a more conventional one would be welcome!

Well the SW sets are a yes for me, but 42180 and 42179 will be also interesting to see.

Everyone commenting on the Stormtrooper head bump needs to know that it also happened on the Star Wars episode of Lego Master Australia (Season 1)! Quick but hilarious

Midi-scale is a non-minifig scale for smaller but detailed models of larger ships, which up until now only had two entries from way back in 2009 and 2010: https://brickset.com/sets?query=midi-scale although I would also include 77904-1 as an unofficial entry in the series.

7778-1 was actually the one that brought me out of my dark ages and into full AFOL status.

There’s also an intentional reference to the original, in Ep2, when Jango clongs his helmet on the tail structure of Slave I while walking up the boarding ramp.

Ornithopter and the new battle pack are definitely going to be pickups. Might have to wait for sales though depending on the Ornithopter pricing

feels weird to already be getting a new artoo

don't care about the crimson firehawk

grogu's escape has potential

tantive boarding better be amazing

TANTIVE MIDI SCALE DEFINITE BUY

boonta eve we've got it before but it's been a while

battle pack sounds AMAZING

droideka finally

LEGO Dune? Nice! I'll probably pick up the Battle Pack as well, and LEGO Animal Crossing sounds fun.

Arrakis - Dune - Lego Planet? Now there's an IP I never thought I would see on Lego's radar or in their production pipeline [and I am assuming it will be a Villeneuve one not a Lynch one]. Definitely intrigued to see what that will look like (and the attendant cost). A space heavy mix for Q124 with Dune, Star Wars and Lego's more classic theme's - and my wallet will not thank me but the Lego must flow...

I am also a big fan of Lynch's sumptuous and, well, Lynchian take on Dune, I saw it when it first came out and it has stayed with me [in various formats - and edits] over the years but I really enjoyed Villeneuve's Part 1. It hit various beats from the book which just worked [for me] and I am looking forward to Part 2. A Lego ornithopter could be some interesting (sp)icing on the cake. What chance a wee Lego Muad'Dib to go with it?

Nothing here excites me. I think LEGO is running out of ideas.

@PurpleDave and @AddictedToStyrene:
Nope, sorry; the BEST "Stormtrooper Fail" come not from Star Wars...it was WCW's "Shockmaster"s first entrance. Picture a BIG wrestler in a Stormtrooper helmet covered in BLUE GLITTER; and...better yet:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fahljd_0xjA
Start 'bout 1:13...pure joy. And the guy under the helmet later had a better career in the WW(then)F as first 'Tugboat' and later 'Typhoon'...not making that up:)
