Monkie Kid and Ninjago sets for me, the rest, not so much.

Sonic doesn't get highlights or an announcement article?

Come on Lego, you know we want the bridge scene from Avengers. Just give it to us!!!

It's a company. That's what they're there for.

TLG in autumn:

Super strong summer sales, from both a profit and renown perspective. Customers really want our sets, don't they?
"

Not Lego Star Wars. :P

Great wave. Favorite sets? Too many to mention, but include at least:

- LEGO Truck
- The big construction crane
- The harbor
- The excavator
- The all new and improved Great Hall (I know, I just love them like I love Landspeeders)
- Aragog
- All the brickheadz
- The Durmstrang ship
- All the speed champions (did not care much for the previous wave... guess I just love Astons, Lambos and Mercs)
- The Lunar Rover
- The Captain Rex thing (as much as I do not agree with LEGO doing this... if you write in an instruction book that the minifigs are exclusive, then I would understand this as exclusive... forever. They should have just not given it armprinting, or sth else to differentiate it)
- The batmobile (love me some Animated Series batmobile... and I hope that Jazzinc Dioramas will follow through with creating their promised 1/6 scale Animated Series Batmobile)

It's fine. Too many people have too much money globally these days, no matter how high inflation is. No matter how much Lego charges, it will be sold out and then re-sold for double the price and more later on anyways

Thank goodness I am stopping my LEGO shopping.

Love the EXO Force mech in the Robot World set

Interesting idea for the Amethyst in Minecraft... it's not quite right to the game but I like it. Also I expected to get an End City Ship way back when 21152 's name leaked all those years ago...

"They sure are pumping out a lot, although I'm finding the more they do the less I'm interested in it. I look at many of the new sets and think didn't they just do that or something similar. Fortunately for me, I am not a completionist, so can happily skip things that look like stuff I already own."
Same here.

My highlights are the Lunar Rover, the construction excavator, the new Madrigal house, the Durmstrang ship, and the Celestial pagoda.

I don't collect Speed Champions sets, but LEGO is doing an incredible job at recreating those cars in LEGO form. I especially like the F1 cars, they just look so good!

Can Brickset as a RLFM give feedback to TLG that they have really bad time management for reveals? Releasing 100 sets in one go at the same time as starting May the 4th promo is just cruel to all the news blogs and fan media who do their advertisement "for free".

I'm really struck by the Lamborghini - but it really looks like it should be a spaceship!

It is silly really. Only just May and they release images of advent calendars. That is as bad as M&S putting out Easter eggs on 27th December.

"I noticed that most of these new sets have a product photo showing a tablet with building instructions pictured next to the LEGO pieces. I hope this does not mean that these sets do not contain printed instructions anymore.
This would be very bad in my opinion"

I doubt it, people who cant afford or dont wish to use a tablet wouldnt be able to buy the sets"

People that don't wish to use a tablet for building instructions could buy the sets.

There have been lots of awesome sets revealed, that's for sure! I'll be getting:

What a weird thing to look forward to. Are you also looking forward to a wave that doesn't have a car?"

What about a pony? Is a pony, ok?

"If i was rich, I would get most of those sets. Pretty awesome unroll. I tried to limit myself quite hard but I still have 11 'must-have' sets... Thankfully those indepth Brickset reviews will slash that number at least in half. But still, well done Lego, bravo!"

Agree 2024 has been a really good year for Lego designs so far. For me in addition to cost, there's also the huge problem of space - I don't want this stuff to take over!

42182 is already preordered. :-)

So much to be excited for! A lot of exciting sets in the City, Friends, Ninjago, and Monkie Kid themes!

Still hoping for more pics of some of these... in particular, I'm eager to see the interior of the Celestial Pagoda set.

Fire Hose!!"

Yep, that's what I meant. I shouldn't post until I've had my morning coffee."

What type of hose did you drink it from?"

Fire hose coffee!!

Looks like a Ninjago set to me.

I’m just blown away by how good so many of these sets look! We are in such a golden age and there is no end in sight!

@CapnRex101 OK, I understand. Thanks for the explanation. There are really too many sets in the portfolio nowadays and every two month comes a new Tsunami wave. Quantity instead of quality (of the sets) is the new motto.

Very nostalgic wave.

Just gone through all the sets now announced. Not much for me personally but I am glad lots of people will be excited by the additions to their chosen themes. Hopefully, if rumours are to be believed, there will be several large sets still to come this year which will re-open my wallet...

Ever-expanding volume and variety, I am partial already to the moon buggy above the rest. Is that a reference to Exo-force in the robot world set? The more the years go by, the more I regret ignoring that theme while I was in the target age range back in the mid 2000s

With a lifelong geeky passion for human spaceflight (just old enough to have seen the last Apollo missions) I’m very excited to see the Lunar Roving Vehicle. Wonderful!

I’m a little frustrated however that the piece count and price have been inflated with the peripheral-build experiments, etc. I’d have preferred just the LRV and none of that ‘display clutter’.

I don't like how many custom pieces they are making, such as the tires for the Lunar Rover. It's less "Lego" with every new customized piece, instead of requiring that we use our imagination for some of the detail. At what point does it just become a model kit? That said, a lot of really good sets in this wave, for sure. The City harbor and modern house are really good, IMO. The HP sets are really well done, as well.

It's sad that LEGO Star Wars has become do dull in comparison to almost every other theme. I've been enjoying the diorama sets, but that about it—and I'm not even sure if we're getting any more of those.

o.o exo force mech in the lego city set

Any rumors on this years Icons 16 stud across car is?
