LEGO Collectable Minifigures Series 29. Rumors and discussion

[CDM]

I'll wait for official images but on first look it's Trash Monster for me and nothing else. Which, saves me some money, I guess.

I think it looks pretty nice, Tahu and Lloyd are ofc great as fans of their respective themes, but I like the mecha t-rex, steam punk girl, and queen (idk the official names) quite a bit as well. The boba outfit is funny too, not one I need but I wouldn't be disappointed if I happened to find her.

I’d remove that image if I were you, as leaked images are not allowed on EB, even without watermarks

I love the series!  A little light on new animals, but so many cool accessories and new pieces! My favourite minifigs here are the trash monster, monster hunter, boba fan and Bonkle cosplayer. Too bad they didn’t bring back the soft drink piece for the boba fan, but it’s a cool minifig regardless.

The new sitting cat may be somewhat superfluous, but I appreciate it anyway

I’m hoping his obscured lower half reveals he’s a para-athelete of some sort to keep up LEGO’s recent trend of disability representation and set him apart from all the licensed players they’re doing this year.

If that was the case, I would think it would have been showcased on the key art and not hidden.

It’s good point though, and not sure it would be possible to showcase on the group shot (also including visible ability differences best practice would be not to point it out necessarily).

There definitely seem to be some details hidden in that group shot - for example the chocolate dragon appears as if it’s sitting on a stand/table, and some characters might have fabric skirt pieces.

Hmm... You might be right. I was double checking the older boxes, and I forgot that S25's Sprinter didn't have his legs visible on the box. So, I guess it could still be in the cards!

Wait, there is no actual unicorn for Unicorn Elf? 

But I love love love this series! I love some cool ambiguities and minifigure parts. 

In my personal opinion, I’m disappoints that Mysterious Ronin is not a hysterical / Castle figure after all, but it’s jsut an aged Lloyd with mask and hairpiece. But I guess it makes sense for Lego to include Lloyd in CMF so it seems that Ninjago will have a new story for Lloyd as a Ronin?

There is a unicorn!

Scott!! I didn’t see that one! It’s first non-licensed fantasty character to come with a modled fantsaty creature in CMF! And I think Unicorn Elf is also the second/third in-house character to come with a molded fictional creatures after Space Sereis 26 (Retro Space Girl with robot dog and Ice Planet Explorer with alien penguin). A small step for fictional creatures!!

[Lion King]

Clownfish, sitting cat, chocolate dragon, bonefish, and unicorn foal - it’s a nice mix of animals for this series (living & enduring / dead / non-animated / fantasy). It makes me wonder what future has stored for in-house CMF series. I hope they keep it up. I hope to see a aner-toothed tiger cub, dark phoenix, zombie dog (half flesh & half sketeal)!

Also, it’s pretty interesting that Monster Hunter and Unicorn Elf have “ties” to 3n1 Creator sets (Haunted House and Unicorn Castle) that are already released last year. Not sure about Trash Monster and Cute Witch meant for Haunted House so I shrug off my shoulders.

I think it’s also nice that in addition to 3 new molds – clownfish, sitting cat, and fish skeleton – we also got two recolors of popular animals. The unicorn foal is much more appealing to adult collectors in this context than the original 3-in-1 set it was released in, and the baby dragon made the jump from a licensed series to an unlicensed one. It’s been awhile since we’ve seen animal recolors beyond the basic fish/scorpion/clamshell simplistic style stuff, and the fact that the CMF designers are giving us a combination of new and recolored animals to maximize the number we get in the series is something I hope continues going forward.

As CMF targets young staunch, I think that unicorn appealing both boys and girls, rather than the one from the oriignal 3n1 Creator set - say, less “Little Ponies”? But I agree with you on everything you said.

Wrong thread

Castle would be successful if they roster characters wisely. Pirates as well, although I can't see it approximating the same potential success as a Castles theme.

[Lion King]

Sooooo it’s March 24 and April is coming up. I can’t wait for offical photos and reviews soon.

Kinda crazy we haven’t had any fresh leaks in weeks. We might end up having to wait for official pics to see all the characters in full.

If we assume the leaker is wokring in a factory, I would imaigne he say “okay, I think that’s good enough so I won’t get in trouble” or “ohh it’s almsot April? Okay I will let Lego reveal it”. But I agree with you that those leaks were very anytime in two or three past months

Still no official images?!

Right??? Hopefully we will see offical pictures next week. 

[Accio Lego]

Official pics have dropped in the usual places. Not much new info from the legs, but…

Good:

-Monster Hunter comes with fabric hip piece to imitate a tailcoat

- Cute Witch has a printed ruffle skirt and the most adorable kitty socks

Disappointing:

- Goalie was not hiding any sort of leg prosthetic, he really is that boring 

- Chocolatier just has the brown dragon and a little white two part stand to display it on, no chocolate making tools like a spoon or whisk (Edit: it looks like the official renders left out a piping bag she comes with)

Weird:

- the unicorn foal’s horn is transparent clear, which I’m personally not really feeling and will be swapping out with something else (luckily the part already exists in several colors)

Official leaked photos in HD are now out. A few more visible details, like a printed Bonkle canister, cat stocking on the witch, and some kind of cape/ waist cape on the Monster Hunter.

[Accio Lego]

Really weird development: There are a few accessories that aren’t rendered as part of the official group and individual poses, but are visible in the lifestyle pics that have spread around a little less. 
 

- Chocolatier also has a small assembly that looks like a piping bag 

- Monster Hunter also has a Vampire Wanted poster printed tile

- Marine Biologist also has a printed tile with a diagram of a fish on it, as well as some clear parts that can be used to make her and the clownfish look like they’re floating

- Trash Monster also comes with a pizza box printed tile

 

This seems pretty impressive for the last three, who also come with brand new molded accessories as well as these newly revealed custom printed tiles.

Ohhhh the clear parts aren't just to make them seem like they're floating—they also make it so you can have the marine biologist on the stand while wearing her flippers! That's a nice inclusion since it's been an issue for past CMFs with flippers (and was one of my first thoughts of what to do with the "nipple plate" back when it was first introduced).
