If they don't announce Lucky Star this time around, then it's essentially a giant middle finger to the entire population of british otakus

On to my predictions...
K-On! - This was recently announced by Bandai, so it's most likely one of the 'fresh' ones they're on about
Gundam uhhhhh.... The 08th MS Team? - Wild guess, just searched for 'Anime Legends' on Amazon.com, picking out stuff we haven't got

The Big O - As Above
Scrapped Princess - Now I'm just recycling guesses from last time XD
 
They said they were going to have another guessing game. So I'm gonna wait for them to give us a few hints before I start guessing!

I'm so excited about this!
 
Didn't Beez say Lucky Star didn't sell very well in the US?

Anyway, I'd like to see Haruhi Season 2 and The Disappearance.

At a stretch...Sgt. Frog (I know FUNi have the deal with Manga UK, but Sgt. Frog is a Sunrise series, so I dunno. Also, as Manga UK said they are reluctant to license it, Beez could have jumped on that)...I'm just being REALLY optimistic because I'm in a Sgt Frog mood.
 
This twitter post at Beez along with their reply would suggest that the Big O is very likely.

Managed to find the listings myself to.

As for me I am hoping for 0083 to be an anime legends announcement. The Afterglow of Zeon movie just can't compare to the original OVA series. Oh and Turn A Gundam and an announcement of a future release for the new 00 movie would also be welcome Gundam additions.

Co-signed.

That's my all-time fave Gundam series. I've never seen the movie version and I don't wanna. Some things are just too beautiful to spoil!

If they announced the 08th Team, that'd be cool too. Quite honestly an exceptional show in the franchise.

Wait, what's this about Manga UK not wanting to license Sgt Frog...I don't recall anything in the show that would cause problems with the BBFC...okay granted the dub does have quite a lot of American pop culture jokes but then again that does not stop (non anime shows I know but I'm using them as examples) The Simpsons and Family Guy from being popular over here
 
Stu you are but one drop in the Ocean. I'm just being realistic here, Manga themselves have said that they won't risk it.

It's nothing about the BBFC. I think it's because Manga UK aren't confident that it will sell well.

Of course, I'd buy it, but not enough to make it profitable (Like, 1000 copies).

Bandai "said" it themselves (or at least that it performed under their expectations) when they cancelled the last LE and switched to sub-only for the OVA. As for Beez:

Too much money to produce, too little an income. Makes sense.
