2012 - New Park - (12/4/09) According to this news report the new Legoland park under construction in Iskandar, Malaysia will be ready a year early, opening sometime in 2012.
(12/16/08) Merlin Entertainment has confirmed that the deal was signed to build Legoland Malaysia in Iskandar. The $210 million project is expected to open in 2013, follwing Legoland Dubailand that is on track to open in 2011.

 Park News - (1/31/10) According to this report posted at the Completely Legoland Windsor website, the park has begun the process of taking down the Jungle Coaster. Ever since it was modified, due to local complaints, to use enclosed cars, the operation of the ride has simply been a nightmare for the park. With the site now earmarked to become home to a possible future Legoland Hotel, I do have to wonder if they might consider moving the Jungle Coaster for use at another Leogland theme park… minus the enclosed cars of course. Check out the link above for a great video clip show off just what the ride experience from the enclosed cars was like.
(6/19/09) A post over at UK Rides talks about a new planning application submitted by the park for future development. The plan calls for the removal of the Jungle Coaster which will instead be replaced by a new 150 room Legoland Hotel. They also have a short list of other future attractions they want to add: Atlantis by SEALIFE in the Creation Center building, a new children’s coaster next to the Dragon coaster, and new kiddie rides in Land of the Pharohs and Knights Kingdom, a new family coaster to replace the outgoing Jungle Coaster, monorail expansion, and something called the Jungle Cruise. You can see some of the items and artwork submitted here.
2010 - Pirate Attraction - According to this news article the park has applied for permits to build a new Pirate themed attraction. I’ve got to wonder if it might be a copy of the Pirate Shores area built at the California park that featured a Lego themed Splash Battle style ride along with other small pirate themed rides.
2011 – Family Coaster – Confirmed – (11/2/09) Legoland Windsor has been conducting guest surveys lately to determine interest in other new attraction concepts. Concepts shown to guests include a Lego Atlantis themed aquarium attraction, Jet Raiders, a family inverted coaster themed to the Lego Agents toy line, Slime Wars, which seems to put the same inverted Jet Raiders coaster with a swamp theme and lots of water effects, Turbo Chase, an indoor/outdoor spy car themed roller coaster and Pirate Battle on Black Lagoon, a Splash Battle style attraction, possibly for last second feedback about the 2010 Pirate project or a possible 2nd year expansion.
(3/26/09) The park confirmed in the press release about their long range future plans that they are planning on building a new family roler coaster for the 2011 season.
2012 – Legoland Hotel – Planning – (3/26/09) The park has announced plans to build an official 180 room Legoland Hotel in 2012, subject to obtaining planning permission to do so.
