LEGO Special Announcement this Friday

[Toys N Bricks]

In four days (this coming Friday), LEGO will announce something very exciting. What do you think it would be? A new theme? A new set? Let the speculation begin!

From LEGO's Facebook/Twitter page:
We have HUGE news coming your way! In 4 days time, we will be revealing something very exciting right here. Let the guessing game commence!

*yawn*

Ooh! Maybe it's the Lego 6 Plus Plus!

Hmmm... the filename of the image here doesn't give any kind of hint. Other postings have an image with a filename that (maybe?) gives away what the big secret is.

My guess is the return of Bionicle - even though it seems that's already leaked.

When I saw the "4" on a white circle, I immediately thought "Fantastic Four" but... probably not. I'm thinking the Bionicle return is right.

Lego Movie 2 ?

[stan5345]

Do the order of the colours have anything to do with the Space theme? Maybe the newest spacemen will be red? My guess for the 4 is it's just a countdown till Friday.

[Kainzzo]

Lego Movie 2 ?

Exactly my first thought. It is very soon for a sequal but after seeing the HUGE success the movie was for the company I can't imagine part 2 is far off.

I'm hoping another HUGE set. 3,000+ piece star wars ship would be great! I can only hope.

Speak like a pirate day on Friday the 19th.

Speak like a pirate day on Friday the 19th.

Good call!

If we stick with the "HUGE" clue, what if they reveal they are making the Avenger's Helicarrier set which recently passed 10k votes?

Hmmm... the filename of the image here doesn't give any kind of hint. Other postings have an image with a filename that (maybe?) gives away what the big secret is.

Something that clings to the hull of your ship, right?

G+ filename contains "Bionicle-4-new" FWIW.

[StClair]

Shouldn't it have changed to 3 today instead of 4? Maybe the number has more to do with it than the number of days away? IF this is the case... as someone else mentioned maybe something like Fantastic Four? It would be easy to do all 4 of the team members. DC has the Justice League being cranked out (YAY!!!). If it weren't for the Guardians of the Galaxy I would say that Marvel is being slightly over looked (since they only have Guardians of the Galaxy, Spider-man, one X-men set and Iron Man sets which will probably be retired soon). With new Avengers movie being made maybe they are expanding marvel universe with Fantastic Four? I sort of doubt it though and honestly I would greatly prefer they expand X-men lineup instead if that were the case.

When I first saw the news I thought it may be announcement of new LEGO IDEAS product (like Doctor Who??? or Big Bang Theory since there was as satellite dish in the background of the image). The satellite dish piece may just be part of the image though since they are referencing communications. Maybe its not space related at all...?

I'm leaning towards Bionicle announcement since only those that follow LEGO news closely would know about the plans for Bionicle. I don't think the casual fan would have heard about it yet. I'll certainly be looking forwards to the announcement of Friday.

G+ filename contains "Bionicle-4-new" FWIW.

I'd say this right here solves the mystery pretty well.

[stevebuscemi]

If it's bionicle then this is super lame on TLG's part.

[IAmElim]

One thing is for sure : The LEGO Movie is far from ready. A close friend of mine who works as a supervisor for lighting effects in movies just went to work in New Zealand for 2 months to work on another project. After a month vacation, he's moving to Australia for 8 months to work on The LEGO Movie 2. So it's a least an entire year before the movie is released.

[blarghiflargh]

The LEGO Movie sequel's scheduled for 2017. They announced it shortly after the first came out.

Avast, me hearties. Bionicles is back.
