I must say, the turnout and response from EB for this Series seems a bit more underwhelming than it has with previous Series. 

Well, a couple of people already told me something liket that

I thnink that when people come, see what I posted and leave without leaving a comment, that's a comment on itselt, right? It means that what they saw wasn'y worthy of a post. It means that this Series was like poor in terms of quality and novelty and it's just not interesting, and I just have to work harder on the next one

Or maybe I already went too far with this and it's time to stop. 

 

But I appreciate when people say something so I appreciate that you always share your thoughts with us

I mean, the more devoted regulars have turned out, but I'm wondering if it's rather escaping everyone else attention instead. 

I forget, has this topic ever been frontpaged before? If it has already, could it be frontpaged again? Can select posts from within a topic be frontpaged @WhiteFang?

Thanks for your concern but I dont like to bother the mods with this. Thats why I dont do it.  

Look, if people come and dont leave a post, its ok. I get this is not interesting for most of the people because these are just drawings that will never become real.

If there are comments to read, its great but if not, its ok

BTW, for as much as I enthusiastically L-O-V-E your Adventurer design, one very tiny complaint I have about it is the color of his kerchief. Given how much brown he already has as a part of his color scheme, a contrasting color such as Olive Green or Dark Red for it instead could've helped. 

You know, other colors such as White, Yellow or even Navy Blue could work as well.

The only reason that I didn’t comment is because I didn’t see these until now.

they look great! 

Lochness monster is my favorite.

I've got to say, this series is probably tied with Series K as my favorite series of yours! My favorites are definitely the snowman, circus acrobat, valkyrie, southern belle, kite flyer, and actor! Fantastic work as always @Robert8!!!

Alright, I understand, though I still do sincerely hope that your work influences TLG and other fans alike in some way, perhaps even propagating an increase in the output of further non-licensed CMFs in both official products and fan art!  I mean, regarding the latter, there are not many CMF fan artists who render original archetype designs outside of your own work, as most of them take the licensed route.

I'm sure I've said this before, @Robert8, but I wish you were in charge of the actual collectible minis.*

Thanks glad you liked them. That would be a dream job for sure

Hi,

I thought it would be great to see some of these wonderful ideas in 3D, so with the permission of Robert8, I made a few minifigs with LDD.

Since there are many new molds here, I was restricted to the ones with already existing molds, or those where I could "change" some of the molds with some Photoshop magic. 

Let's start with Series A

Galactic Traveler

Mime Girl

Organ Grinder

Piper

Southern Businessman

It would be really great if you made also 3D versions for Ashnflash's and just2good's series.

Wow you honestly never cease to amaze me! These are amazing quality and thought put into every single figure.

Yes, but you can do it, too.

Ooooh, I'd love to see @Ashnflash design an original, non-licensed Series!!!  

[Drew15]

Hey Roberto! Would you ever consider making a licensed theme CMFS? A few suggestions that I have include: Star Wars, Jurassic World, Lord of the Rings, Indiana Jones and more!

He has done one licensed CMF draft as a commission for the YouTube channel Brother From Another Brick.

The NFL isn't an official LEGO license though! Although I think the NFL is pretty awesome!

Shouldn’t the Loch Ness monster guy be a girl, Nessie is female after all

What?

I've never heard of that

The tour guides and locals in and around Loch Ness refer to her as she.

Also most versions of the Loch Ness monster in pop culture are a she or neither male or female. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loch_Ness_Monster_in_popular_culture

By the way @Robert8, have you yet considered a 1970's Prom Suit Guy for a future Series? 

[Robert8]

Yeah I do have Prom King and Prom Queen listed, the problem is all the series up to Series Z are already full. I need more letters

Hmmmm, perhaps try Roman Numerals after Series Z? 

[Drew15]

Roberto, you could have done more with the Spanish Alphabet:                                                                                                     With this complete Spanish Alphabet, you get a chance to create 3 extra minifigure series!

I am using the spanish alphabet, as Im a native speaker of the language. 'Ch' and 'll' are not longer letters. Those were removed like 20 years ago. That pic  outdated. 

But with the all the series, the advent calendar and another idea I have in mind, there will be around 500 ideas. I think thats more than enough.

Oooooh, another idea eh? How tantalizing...  ...perhaps it'll be a City-style People Pack, maybe?

Well, I haven't commented on every series you've made but they've all been great. Maybe you're getting less comments cause people are in awe of your work and don't know how to put their appreciation into words, either way I like'em keep up the good work .

I really love the Ghoul and Valkyrie, those are the two best in this series in my opinion.  That Valkyrie is just killer, I would love an army of those.    Alot of the other designs are really good just not my cup of tea.  I do like the writer, the snowman, and the card guard.  You do great work can't wait for the rest.  I really hope lego asks you for your Valkyrie design that would be great to see in a CMF.

That sounds better. Lets go with that. Thank you!
