Darth_Legois Posted December 15, 2008 Posted December 15, 2008 Some Star Wars sets are leaking- perhaps Space Police is next. Doubt it. In my Australian 2009 LEGO Catalog there was that Leaked pic [Which is where they got the pic from, An Aussie Catalog] And it had no Space in it....or Pirates for that matter But Yea I guess there are no more themes to leak accept Space...Im guessing January for leaks.

Algernon Posted December 15, 2008 Posted December 15, 2008 There are lots of new second-half 09 sets to leak yet, but Space is the only theme that we haven't seen because it's a Summer theme like Mars Mission. LEGO seems to release new themes in the summer for some reason... weird. Quote
mania3 Posted December 18, 2008 Posted December 18, 2008 Is this the only new theme we know of for later in the year? Quote
Algernon Posted December 18, 2008 Posted December 18, 2008 Well, if you don't count the summer Power Miners sets, yes. Quote
Nirdian Posted December 19, 2008 Posted December 19, 2008 Are there any pics yet? If not, can someone link me to the LEGO cache? Quote
Pencoin Posted December 19, 2008 Posted December 19, 2008 (edited) Is this the only new theme we know of for later in the year? Another new summer theme is mystery theme aimed at girls I think. Are there any pics yet? If not, can someone link me to the LEGO cache? No pictures yet, be paitent. Edited December 19, 2008 by Pencoin Quote
Pencoin Posted December 23, 2008 Posted December 23, 2008 Someones seen pictures, we might soon! Also more sets: http://www.kiddiwinks.co.za/catalog/index.php?cPath=98_132 Quote
Algernon Posted December 23, 2008 Posted December 23, 2008 Holy crap! Who? Squidman appears to be a central character to this theme. I'm not sure how I feel about that... It's different from classic Space, to be sure, which didn't have any central characters. But we've guessed from the beginning this would be Agents in space, so I shouldn't be surprised. Quote
Pencoin Posted December 23, 2008 Posted December 23, 2008 I don't mind, I hope Blacktron pop up in the Maximun Security Transport. Quote
Algernon Posted December 23, 2008 Posted December 23, 2008 Unlikely, but I'd like that too. An updated Blacktron minifig could be awesome. I hope LEGO realizes how many Space fans they stand to enrage by messing this theme up. Quote
Pencoin Posted December 23, 2008 Posted December 23, 2008 Why is it unlikley? Also I think the 'Pitstop' Is Squiddys base. Quote
hewkii9 Posted December 23, 2008 Posted December 23, 2008 (edited) Why is it unlikley? Because we haven't gotten an Octan station in City or Black Falcons in Castle. Lego's a business, it's going to move forward with new ideas rather than rehash old ones. Edited December 23, 2008 by hewkii9 Quote
Sir Dano Posted December 23, 2008 Posted December 23, 2008 Because we haven't gotten an Octan station in City *snip* -Ahem- Quote
Pencoin Posted December 23, 2008 Posted December 23, 2008 Octan is still very much alive, look at they city sets, it crops up alot. And Black Falcons is but one of the many 'old factions'. They could return. Quote
hewkii9 Posted December 23, 2008 Posted December 23, 2008 Alright, but the Black Falcons point still stands. Quote
Algernon Posted December 23, 2008 Posted December 23, 2008 It's just highly unlikely. It's called "Space Patrol", not Space Police, which makes me believe it's going to make like Power Miners and be nothing more than a vague reference to themes long past. LEGO's been doing this a lot lately, I imagine they've had some success with it. But if you're hoping for any official entry into Space Police lore, you're likely to be disappointed. Quote
Hinckley Posted December 23, 2008 Posted December 23, 2008 I think it's actually called "Space Police" and I'm willing to bet the sets are going to be pretty cool... Quote
Algernon Posted December 23, 2008 Posted December 23, 2008 I hope you're right, but I'm not setting my expectations too high. Quote
Hinckley Posted December 23, 2008 Posted December 23, 2008 I hope you're right, but I'm not setting my expectations too high. OK... Quote
Tim Bit Posted December 23, 2008 Posted December 23, 2008 Well can't wait for these. Someone in the castle thread mentioned they'd seen pictures of them. Hopefully we'll get them soon. Quote
LEGOMAN132 Posted December 24, 2008 Posted December 24, 2008 I agree that this sets will be pretty cool too. Quote
ultraman_bc Posted December 27, 2008 Posted December 27, 2008 Squidman appears to be a central character to this theme. I'm not sure how I feel about that... It's different from classic Space, to be sure, which didn't have any central characters. But we've guessed from the beginning this would be Agents in space, so I shouldn't be surprised. Squidman will not be the only "criminal" in the series. From the other pics, we have an orange alien, a grey looking one (looks like a dragon head) and a pair of white skellie faced twins. There is another green alien in set 5971 that looks like squidman but the pic seems to show this one has a longer neck. So there is an interesting bunch of different aliens and not a specific group like the older Blacktron. It's just highly unlikely. It's called "Space Patrol", not Space Police, which makes me believe it's going to make like Power Miners and be nothing more than a vague reference to themes long past. LEGO's been doing this a lot lately, I imagine they've had some success with it. But if you're hoping for any official entry into Space Police lore, you're likely to be disappointed. The series name is Space Police. This is what is shown on the boxart. Quote
