I hate to ask...but where?  The suspense is killing me...

Most leaks are accessible on instagram these days, just search for leaks and you'll find it

[alvinofdiaspar]

Thanks for the tip - didn't occur to me to look on Insta...

Found it - looks decent enough.  Summer can't come soon enough.

Looks like some of the torsos for the space line have leaked.  They're definitely Mars Mission-inspired.  I really like the logo though, it seems like a much more modern version of the classic space logo.  I'd love to see this version used more!

Hmz, once you see it, you can't unsee the ladybug in the logo.

(torso's as such are nice, though)

Just saw the new torsos, really hyped for the line.

Torsos? As in more than one?

Yep, a white one and an orange one

From the same upcoming subtheme, or other lines?

Yes, the same upcoming theme. They both have the new space logo for the theme.

How many are there, and how do they differ from each other?

2, minor print differences mainly relating to the color and a bit of extra print (I'd call it speckled, though its probably not the best  word to describe it) at the bottom of the orange one where the white leaves it printless

After a little digging, I finally found them, and I'm liking the white counterpart as much as the Orange one! 

Thanks for your help!

Can’t find anything on IG!?!

This is kind of unrelated, but I wonder how closely the new "Mars Mission" subtheme will resemble this recently submitted LEGO Ideas project:

New figure leaked. Looks like a carpenter or something like that

...and now a full "Mars Mission" astronaut in White has leaked, utilizing a Gold-visored "Atlantis" helmet/airtank headgear in the same color.

[CommanderGrimm]

It REALLY reminds me of the good 'ol Mars Mission astronauts we got back in '07. Fingers crossed this is a prequel series?

This figure looks pretty boring to me, personally.  The use of all white parts with the very little orange peaking out underneath makes it looks rather bland.  I would have loved to see a different, or even a new, mold used instead.  Or at least something to introduce some more color.  Perhaps the other figures will be a bit more exciting though!

I agree with this. I was expecting a new helmet so it didn't even occur to me they'd retread something. Not a deal breaker for me but still slightly disappointing.

There's supposed to be an Orange counterpart to the White astronaut, one that's virtually identical except with its color scheme in reverse (mostly Orange with White accents). All we've seen so far of the figure though is it's torso.

Another potenial head from Mars got leaked it's a female head with breathing apparatus printed, (looks like a whole garlic piece)

Besides the "garlic clove" breathing apparatus (  ), that head looks pretty sweet with the red-lensed visor!

Yo wassup. I might be wrong tho, some says it's for Ninjago but I dunno.

That just can't be. After all, being printed onto a White head like that suggests an Astronaut's headsock.

An astronaut wouldn't wear a facemask with a headsock though.

True, though these sets look to be taking after a somewhat "near-future" approach, thereby affording designers some liberties in execution.
