Looks like VB is growing up.  It finally has curly braces thanks to LINQ:

Dim People = {New Person {Age := 42, Name := "Erik"}, _
  New Person {Age := 12, Name := "Wouter" }}

It was only a matter of time until they admitted the power of the curly brace.  MUAHAHAHA! :)

To be more VB-like, I suggest:

Dim People = Begin Anonymous Type _
Begin New Type As Person(Age := 42, Name := "Erik") End New Type, _
Begin New Type As Person(Age := 12, Name := "Wouter") End New Type, _
End Anonymous Type As Anonymous Type
