August 21, 20177 yr Author Pictures of the new City sets are leaked. The Tree suit does look like it could be reused as a CMF.

August 21, 20177 yr Instagram user lego_peru has posted the preliminary placeholder catalog images for both S18 and the presumable TLBM Series 2, with seventeen minifigures for S18. That seventeenth minifigure, you don't suppose it will be S10 Mr. Gold the sequel will it? Edited August 21, 20177 yr by Digger of Bricks

August 21, 20177 yr Probably a one-off extra figure for the series because the series has reached 17 figures. 2018 is gonna be an expensive year for CMFs. TLBM S.2, S.17 and then the HP/Fantastic Beasts 2 series.
August 21, 20177 yr Interesting that the release date says April instead of May... Better sooner than later I guess :P

Yes, it seems that it is the most concrete info we have right now... but I have never seen TLG use the mould for the same release year. We've seen re-use of the mould after a year or 2... but on that same year of the release? Maybe they're making an experiment whether sales will be affected. 1 hour ago, williejm said: Mr Gold Brick costume? Hope that they won't do something similar. I am totally fine with the Highway man approach.
August 22, 20177 yr What I hope is that they did 17 to include the duplicate Brick suit minifig. I wouldn't mind a chase variant being available once per box, as long as it's not Mr. Gold rare...

August 22, 20177 yr Yeah, that's probably what it is, the 2nd brick suit. 17 really plays havoc with the case count if isn't a one-per chase figure. I foresee wailing, the rending of clothes, the pulling of hair, and the gnashing of teeth Edited August 22, 20177 yr by K_Tiger

Which is absolutely fine with me :)
August 22, 20177 yr Sorry for revisiting the carrot costume topic. As was confirmed by a few before, it is a just custom dual molded part by some third party printer called crazybricks. Now...about Series 18....hoping for some tasty details soon.

There is always the scenario that the CMF Series have been increased to 17 minifigures without chaser minifigures?

Interesting thought. I wouldn't mind an extra figure. It's kind of a consolation prize for only getting a single regular CMF series a year anymore.

I would go to the my local Lego store day 1 and grab a box and run to the corner and feel them all out to get that one exclusive one if they did a one per box fig.
August 24, 20177 yr If there's a chase, it will probably be the second brick suit, which means you're buying 7 packs. As much as I don't believe in bump codes, this may be a situation where I try to utilize them when I get my box. If the chase is on, that is.

August 26, 20177 yr I'm not too sure if this means anything but I will post it here just in case. I work at a major retailer in Australia and while at work I saw a cardboard box that was stamped with the Lego Minifigures logo. It had a sticker on it that read "DO NOT OPEN UNTIL SEPTEMBER 1st". This is the same date as Force Friday so it could just be a Star Wars set in a Minifigures box but it could be something else. Edited February 4, 20187 yr by battlingsumo
