That is the most complete collection of MINIS I've ever seen cou10gar. Very nice!
What I'm about to post is my assumptions, which are not in anyway true. I know only as much as anyone else.
I'd like to think that because of the success of the MINIS, Fisher-Price would continuing holding on making mass productions of them, otherwise there would be nothing but sets and accessories, and anyone late to the party might have a limited choice of engines to choose from.
I reckon that a brand new blind bag series of 75 or so engines could be produced next year. To distinguish it from the last blind bags, it could use a different colour and have a cool sounding overall name. I think the series would have to re-release a quarter of the existing engines in the Classics theme, such as the Steam Team and a few extras, to ensure that people are guaranteed to have those engines at whatever stage they might be collecting had they missed out on the 2015 series. There would still be enough space for new engines, and plenty of opportunities for new themes, and by then there might be double the amount of Thomas, Percy, and James variants.
If we're lucky, we could even have another special mash-up theme or another Comic-Con exclusive, but I'm not holding my breath.
Again, all speculation, I do know nothing.
I found that Japanese poster as a downloadable from Fisher-Price's Japan website by the way.
Eight Super Friends MINIS are to be made in total, and four of those from the Comic-Con pack have been released in blind bags. Diesel as Batman (Dark Knight version) will stay exclusive to the Comic-Con item. We're expecting 4-packs of the DC Super Friends engines as well which were shown at New York Toy Fair last February, and there's three more engines in that theme we know of but there's no sign of these getting released so far.
