[Angeli]

yup, I agree, it's just a guessing game, so it should stay

but, if you KNOW what the 16 will be, then you are out of the game.

so, I'm out ;)

*sniff, sniff* Why you no tell us what they are?? Seriously though, do you really know what they will be? That would be awesome!

[SilentMode]

I call shenanigans.

[Phyre]

Okay, since we may be not too far away from finding out what the minifigures are, I'm going to post my guesses now. I put some serious thought into this, trying to think of what LEGO might make next and looking at patterns in the previous series (such as we only get a animal suit figure every two series, and therefore the Bunny Suit Guy in S7 most likely rules out an animal suit figure in S8).

1. Golem

2. Cyclops

3. Golfer

4. American Football Player

5. Beekeeper

6. Santa (with a new hat mold that actually looks like a Santa hat)

7. Teacher/Professor

8. Pirate

9. Groom

10. Construction Worker

11. Waitress

12. Pumpkinhead

13. Snake Charmer

14. Scarecrow (just a normal scarecrow that could be used in a LEGO farmer's garden or perhaps in a Wizard of Oz MOC)

15. European King (with a new multi-colored crown mold)

The last spot was hard for me to decide, but since there aren't any in the summer batch of LotR sets, and it seems to be a popular guess, I'm going to go with...

16. Female Elf

Okay Angeli, now tell us what the figures are.

[Itaria No Shintaku]

:p

At least you could tell me how many right guesses I did ;)

[KnightSnap]

:p

How about letting us play mastermind with you, where you can give a score to each of those who have contributed guesses about how many are right or half right. Then we can keep guessing till someone gets them all right.

[SpiderSpaceman]

I call shenanigans.

Yeah why are you gullibleheads being as such?

This sounds like a good idea.

[Cire]

I hope the following :

1. Shepherd with sheep (the sheep will be great addition to my farm)

2. Turtle or starfish or swordfish warrior (for the atlantis collection)

3. Pearl Krabs or other sponge bobs characters not include in any sets (for sponge bobs collection)

4. Female Ewok with kid (for starwars collection)

5. Medusa

6. Centaur

7. Dragon Knight King (for the kingdom collection)

8. Dragon Knight princess (for the kingdom collection)

9. Female dwaft

10. Swamp thing

11. Devil with horn and tail

12. Mermaid

13. Cyclops

14. Beekeeper

15. Angel with wing

16. An old woman with a baby

13. Cyclops

14. Beekeeper

15. Angel with wing

16. An old woman with a baby

These are most unlikeable imho. Too many mythological creatures (Medusa, Centaur, Cyclops), I won't bet on Devil and Angel (furthermore on the same series) or on a baby (if they were to make babies, they would have already done them). Much more, there is clearly no room for SW or SB characters in the minifig series.

I am sorry but this seems more your wishlist than a guessing game. I started this topic with another spirit, to see how TLC can be predictable.

No offence meant.

[WhiteFang]

For all to note, I understand the anticipation and excitement of the upcoming Series 8 and this could be the only exception that this topic can be allowed. So, while the excitement and anxiety is there, don't spoil it.

In short,

Stay on Topic.

[AndyC]

I reckon they'll include a skateboarder. We could do with more of those.

[Klaus-Dieter]

That's a great and very interesting topic, Itaria No Shintaku!

I could well imagine that we'll get

1. centurion (the legionaire's helmet includes a hole - so there is imo a reason behind that, namely that you can put a feather inside)

2. female skier (we got male and female snowboarder, so it's likely that this will be the case with the skiers, too)

3. Middle Eastern knight (we have been waiting for a non-fleesh one since years)

4. male ice skater (same reason as 2.)

5. baker

6. some sort of monster or another horror/fantasy creation

7. violine player (we already have a violine case - although a violine supposably wouldn't fit inside)

8. man in lion suit

9. sheriff

10. medicine man

And my further wishes (I don't know if we can await them) are

11. damsel of the castle with new medieval bonnet

12. Western banker with money bag

13. gardener with watering pan

14. gladiator with trident and net

15. white-red crusader

16. Caesar

What do you think?

Thanks for liking this topic. I believe 2, 3, 4 and 5 to be very likely. Most of all the male ice skater!

6. Soldier with machine gun

You will NEVER see that.

Perhaps you don't know that TLC did their first green brick after a lot of years because they feared someone could have built tanks with that. LEGO is totally against war and I support this behaviour.

Correction: Lego is against modern war

The lines blur a little more when it comes to licensed sets however.
