Maybe a full-sized LEGO update with official skins, textures and updates that officially integrate LEGO’s aesthetics into the game, or a sub-game? It’ll be interesting to also see what LEGO does with Minecraft, given the enduring popularity of the LEGO theme as well as the computer game. I also think we’ll get some really special LEGO Friends sets, given it’s been one of LEGO’s most important modern themes, rivalling Ninjago for commercial and cultural impact. I suspect we’ll see some commemorative minifigures for DC, and Marvel, in the same vein as the recent Harry Potter golden anniversary minifigures. Homages to other LEGO themes throughout the yearĢ022 is also going to be a big year of celebrations for a number of LEGO themes celebrating anniversaries, and I can see LEGO bundling these milestones up to the larger 90th Anniversary celebrations.

In the same vein as LEGO Minifigures Series 18 which celebrated 40 years of the minifigure, I think we’ll see LEGO devote a special series to some of its most iconic characters. Yes, this is in addition to Series 22 and the rumoured Muppets series. My next prediction? Instead of the typical three LEGO Collectible Minifigures (CMFs) we see in a year, we’ll get a FOURTH series, devoted to classic themes, and characters from LEGO’s 90 years of history. A 90th Anniversary Collectible Minifigure Series This is a colour that has never existed in LEGO’s history, and LEGO Designers have a special relationship with Teal, so I think we could expect a brand new Classic Space Astronaut in 2022, with the 90th Anniversary set.īonus prediction: while I think Classic Space will win, I think we’ll also see smaller renditions of sets inspired by Bionicle, Classic Pirates and Castle as gift with purchases (GWPs), or smaller commemorative releases. Well, based on this shot of the LEGO Designers, with props from the Rebuild the World Ad Campaign, which also curiously includes a Teal Classic Space outfit, worn by Niek van Slagmaat. In the moonbase, a rainbow assortment of Classic Space minifigures, including the addition of a brand new colour – a Teal / Turqouise.
My prediction? An actual LEGO moonbase that draws inspiration from 6970 Beta 1 Command Base, complete with an updated 928 Space Cruiser, slightly modernised using contemporary elements. I cannot see LEGO picking any other theme but Classic Space – a theme beloved within the LEGO Design Team, but also to longtime AFOLs and Adult Fans. The big reveal that everyone is waiting for will be the LEGO Ideas 90th Anniversary Fan Vote – a showdown between the top 4 winners of the fan vote: Bionicle, Classic Space, Pirates and Castle. This isn’t based on any inside information, but just wishful thinking and an educated guess of what I think we’ll get! The big one – the winner of the 90th Anniversary Fan Vote I however, am most excited about 2022 being LEGO’s 90th Anniversary, an incredible milestone for The LEGO Group, and I’m really looking forward to seeing what Billund has in store for all of us. As we approach the end of 2021, our attention naturally turns towards new 2022 LEGO sets, and leaks, and retailer product lists start trickling out from usual corners of the internet.
