A photo of the Unicorn Elf leaked, and her hair-and-tiara combo is gorgeous! I guess she'll have a unicorn too...
Cute Witch may be of interest for medieval-fantasy too.

The unicorn castle felt expensive for what you get, so please to be able to get a small unicorn at a sensible price (less than the cost on PAB), and with an excellent figure.

Bubble tea, no?

Oh... okay, I never heard that one before. The only Boba I know is Boba Fett 😅

Yeah here for sure it’s also called ‘boba tea’, no bounty hunters in the ingredients

I’m hoping the recoloured dragon is a proper animal, rather than an unprinted ‘chocolate’ creation!

Isn’t it the monster hunter that comes with the dragon? Apparently recolour of the one from D&D series 

That was my first guess. But the dragon is the 7th item of the "description" leak, and the 7th item of the minifig list is the Chocolatier...

Chocolate dragon sounds cool if it’s true. And it’s kinda odd that unicorn elf doesn’t come with a unicorn foal. But I will order that unicorn off PAB then.

That's what they want you to think :devil:

I hope the chocolatier has a big unnerving grin :laugh_hard:

Well, as long as the chocolatier used dark chocolate for the eyes I am good with it ;)

So as far as animals go, we know for sure:

- Marine Biologist comes with a new clownfish

- Unicorn elf comes with a unicorn 

- Chocolatier comes with the D&D baby dragon recolored to look like chocolate 

I doubt we’ll see any animals with the Soccer Goalie, Tuba Player, Robot T-Rex, Boba Cup Fan, Bionicle Cosplayer, or Mysterious Ronin. However,

- Monster Hunter could come with something like a bat

- Cute Witch could come with a familiar (‘cute’ could easily mean she’s a kid witch with a kitten familiar or something similar)

- Trash Monster already has bugs printed on it, so its accessories could include more bugs

 

I'm aware that 3 animals in a series is already pretty good, but since only one is a new mold it doesn’t seem crazy to speculate we might get another preexisting mold not mentioned in leaks yet. (It’s also worth mentioning that the extra comments from the leaker on the Elf focus on her using the Wonder Woman hair and tiara and not the fact that she presumably comes with a large animal)

You’re right. We don’t. It’s an assumption given the name. Since she doesn’t appear battle worthy however, I can’t see her being called yah because she has a unicorn-emblazoned shield. So while it’s still speculation, what else can it be?

Shut up & take my money.

Black kitten is a good shout & would be most welcome. 

I assume trash monster will come with some combo of a rubbish bin, sack, banana skin &/or fish. It should, of course, come with a trash panda 🦝

Painting of a unicorn, tapestry of a unicorn, book with a unicorn on the cover...

That said, a unicorn foal does seem the most likely--it's not as if any new molds would be required.

She also has a unicorn horn pendant. could get a matching wand or something.

She would not be called unicorn elf just because of the pendent and a foal seem most likely. However strange the leakers did not mention it, but they mentioned mostly new moulds I guess :wacko:

Yup! It’s quite odd that he didn’t mention a unicorn foal, I maintain my hope at its low (and cautious) level. I often wish for fantasy/prehisotric/sci-fi creatures to show up in non-licensed series. Unicorn Elf gives me a glimpse of hope….

As ever, leakers have limited reliability in looking at things the way each of us separately would 🤷🏽‍♂️

Exactly. The original leaker mistook the Mysterious Ronin for a Ninjago fig and failed to note that the Bionicle fig was a costume. 
 

The leaker who revealed the list only really made one specific comment on each character, with some being frustratingly vague – Robot T-Rex simply gets “Great fig” does that mean it’s getting new head and tail molds or has Lego just done a very good job repurposing the old ones? We can only guess. Likewise, the Cute Witch is described as “pretty standard” – the last stereotypical witch we got came with the equally stereotypical black cat, which is ‘pretty standard’ for a witch. Does that mean this one will also have a familiar? We can only guess. 
 

I do think it’s a bit too much of a coincidence that we’re getting a ‘Unicorn Elf’ just a year after a unicorn foal mold was introduced. And just doing a unicorn emblazoned shield would mean copying both series 17’s Elf Maiden and series 18’s Unicorn Costume Fan, which seems uncharacteristically uncreative for a team that cooked up Robot T-Rex, Bionicle Cosplayer, and used a Chocolatier as an opportunity to establish the D&D dragon as an unlicensed part.

Yeah, I agree wiht Accio Lego. I feel like unicorn foal would show up in CMF about a year after Unicorn Castle being introduced. It might make sense.  And I can see how Chocoaltier having a chocolate dragon. There are so many chocolate sculptures in real world - I have seen book, castle, rabbit, and others made out of chocolate.  I like that idea.

I assumed the hair piece was new, but that is a recolour so the fig have used zero budget on any moulds so a shield and a unicorn make most sense. The beastmaster got both and then the wolf was new, this is CMF figs after all not some random BAM figs :wink: Lego knows a Castle fig, with a animal and preferably a new shield is a winner by now :shrug_oh_well:

I still remember the heady days when very-confident leakers attested that the new boxes would see extra accessories & bricks, and specifically that the Marvel s2 would include parts to create a large, buildable, Sentinel robot.

Or, to put it another way, leakers used diffusion models to generate leaks before AI used it to generate images. Ahead of their times.

I was so fascinated by that leak and thought it would have been great, but for the fact that the boxes had no identification on them. I bought a (cheap) gram scale for that series and it was entirely unreliable. So glad they've got QR codes now.
