Including the first ten series as well as 11-20 would either decrease the detail on all minifigures or increase the price. I can’t imagine them giving a full page to 320+ figures Technically an updated encyclopedia would be featuring a little more than double the figures, so if each page of the first edition profiled a single CMF, the updated edition would spilt that single page between two CMF profiles, thereby keeping the book around the same size as the first edition.

Robert8 Posted August 6, 2019 Posted August 6, 2019 Yeah this has to be Vol. II. There is no way they would include all the minifigures from Series 1 to 10 again. It would be gigantic Quote

I was just going to mention that. The prints are awfully similar. The print on two different colored heads is particularly interesting, but doesn't necessarily denote a CMF release. Perhaps a callback for use in another theme? We'll see, though. Maybe that eye patch head we saw IS a future CMF after all. Edited August 16, 2019 by K_Tiger Quote

Robert8 Posted August 16, 2019 Posted August 16, 2019 There is no way these are leaks for May 2020 If these are upcoming CMFs, then they are for January for sure We are up to 3 leaked heads: pirate, robot and scifi character Quote

I highly doubt that the DC CMS rumor is false given its sources. Just now, J4ck said: DC is January so maybe these heads are for one of the new themes such as Zebra, IP2 or Leaf? Sure, either the "Sci-Fi" and/or "Pirate" heads could possibly come from that enigmatic "Leaf" theme, though the Robot head is straight outta Series 1. Like I'd said, that could possibly be from a promotional set if anything. Quote

I still hope it is false 2 hours ago, Renny The Spaceman said: theory that we'll get an anniversary series I really hope not! I have a few old figs on my wanted list, but would rather have completely new figs than to get them as a best of series or similar.. If I was desperate I can just buy the old figs with the inflated prices there are plenty on the marked.. This series 20 is getting me worried, because I know Lego will do something special with it and it is probably bad or worse from my perspective If it is a female gold in a total of 5000 or one per box I do not mind since I only buy the figs with useful parts. If it is some kind of themed series like 18 or one fig from each former series that would be bad! Series 19 has set a record with new animal moulds and if it something to special with series 20, I have to wait to 21 before I can hope to get a similar series again Quote

ToaIruini Posted August 16, 2019 Posted August 16, 2019 So from what I understand January 2020 - DC Series (heavily rumored) May 2020 - Series 20 September - ????? Quote

Well, no trusted sources have even confirmed Series 20's existence just yet, let alone pinned-down any release date for such, as it's just merely a presumed given for next year. However, I do find it likely myself that it should arrive around that time of year if we're to believe the rumor of a DC-based CMS for January. As for September, well, what that could be is anyone's guess if 2020 does play out the way you put it. Quote

Roebuck Posted August 17, 2019 Posted August 17, 2019 It is raining the hole day here so decided to sort the CMF in different groups Several figs can go different groups, but I ended up with these and probably a lot of you do not agree with every fig in every group, but I think it was interesting to categorize them so we know what we have , maybe it is easier to see what we will get in the future Western; a very interesting theme to me that goes very well with the classic sets from the late -90. Hope to see more in the future, but they where more frequent in earlier series 1.Tribal Hunter 1.Cowboy 3.Tribal Chief 6.Bandit 8.Cowgirl 10.Tomahawk Warrior 12.Prospector 13.Sheriff 15.Tribal Woman Castle; another classic theme that I love to get figs from! Usually several or no figs in a series, have a lot of potential for farmers and other civilian figs in the future 1.Forestman 3.Elf 5.Evil Dwarf 7.Evil Knight 9.Heroic Knight 9.Forest Maiden 12.Wizard 12.Fairytale Princess 12.Jester 13.Classic King 13.Evil Wizard 15.Frightening Knight 15.Queen 17.Battle Dwarf 17.Elf Girl 19.Fright Knight Sport; One of the worst groups for me, I rarely get figs from it and had no idea they where so many Do other AFOLs like them? More common earlier, but still too numerous for my taste.. 1.Cheerleader 1.Super Wrestler 1.Skater 2.Weightlifter 2.Skier 2.Karate Master 2.Surfer 3.Snowboarder 3.Sumo Wrestler 3.Tennis Player 3.Race Car Driver 3.Baseball Player 4.Hockey Player 4.Soccer Player 4.Ice Skater 4.Surfer Girl 4.Street Skater 5.Boxer 5.Snowboarder Guy 5.Fitness Instructor 6.Skater Girl 7.Swimming Champion 7.Daredevil 7.Tennis Ace 8.Football Player 8.Downhill Skier 8.Red Cheerleader 9.Roller Derby Girl 10.Skydiver 10.Paintball Player 10.Baseball Fielder 11.Mountain Climber 12.Video Game Guy 13.Fencer 15.Ballerina 15.Kendo Fighter 15.Wrestling Champion 16.Kickboxer 17.Professional Surfer 17.Dance Instructor 19.Video Game Champ 19.Rugby Player 19.Mountain Biker Circus; a small theme of mostly clowns (no pun intended), common in the first two series then rare. Should be potential for more figs 1.Circus Clown 1.Magician 2.Ringmaster 2.Mime 5.Small Clown 10.Sad Clown 17.Circus Strong Man 18.Party Clown Sci-fi; One of the few classic themes I do not have any interest in, but I am sure a lot of other AFOLs love More than 1 fig in average per series, but usually either zero or several in a series.. 1.Robot 1.Spaceman 3.Space Villain 3.Space Alien 6.Classic Alien 6.Clockwork Robot 6.Intergalactic Girl 7.Galaxy Patrol 8.Evil Robot 8.Alien Villainess 9.Alien Avenger 9.Battle Mech 11.Evil Mech 11.Lady Robot 12.Space Miner 13.Alien Trooper 13.Galaxy Trooper 15.Astronaut 15.Laser Mech 16.Cyborg 17.Retro Spaceman 19.Galactic Bounty Hunter Post 1/3 Quote

Roebuck Posted August 17, 2019 Posted August 17, 2019 (edited) Monster; Not my favourite group, but I sometimes buy them. Series 14 had a lot after that not so common, but fine by me 1.Zombie 2.Witch 2.Vampire 3.Mummy 4.The Monster 4.Werewolf 4.Crazy Scientist 8.Vampire Bat 9.Mr. Good and Evil 12.Spooky Girl 14.Wolf Guy 14.Monster Scientist 14.Wacky Witch 14.Fly Monster 14.Spectre 14.Zombie Cheerleader 14.Gargoyle 14.Monster Rocker 14.Zombie Businessman 14.Banshee 14.Spider Lady 14.Zombie Pirate 14.Tiger Woman 16.Spooky Boy 19.Mummy Queen Pirates; A classic theme that have surprisingly few figs compared to similar themes, should have plenty of potential for future figs, but we will see 8.Pirate Captain 11.Island Warrior 16.Scallywag Pirate Fantasy; A lot of varied figs usable for a variety of other themes. Most common in the middle series, so maybe not so common in future series 6.Minotaur 6.Leprechaun 6.Genie 7.Ocean King 7.Grandma Visitor 8.Fairy 8.Santa 9.Cyclops 9.Mermaid 10.Medusa 11.Gingerbread Man 11.Holiday Elf 11.Yeti 12.Genie Girl 13.Goblin 13.Lady Cyclops 14.Square Foot 15.Faun 16.Ice Queen 19.Monkey King Misc.; Chase figs or other odd ones. Will probably see more chase figs in the future 1.Demolition Dummy 4.Lawn Gnome 6.Lady Liberty 10.Mr. Gold 18.Classic Police Officer Animal; not a fig, but my favourite thing with the CMF series I will usually buy 10+ of new animals no matter how the fig looks like Rare in the first 10 series, but getting more and more common!

Robert8 Posted August 17, 2019 Posted August 17, 2019 Wow what a list. Thanks Id say Video Game Guy, Video Game Champ and Ballerina are not sports. They are City Highwayman is not a warrior, but a Historic character Swashbuckler is a pirate, not part of an army or anything Mythology should be its own subtheme I think. Quote
K_Tiger Posted August 17, 2019 Posted August 17, 2019 Canonically speaking, S.14's Tiger Woman was turned into a tiger-human hybrid by means of an artifact. She is NOT a costumed character. That aside, I do much appreciate those lists! Quote
