Big Bad Wolf plays a lute in the musical finale of Shrek 2. My bet would be that as an accessory since it already exists, and who doesn’t love a lute? 

Didn't he eat some medieval pork snacks in the opening of Shrek 2? Maybe that would be a more in-character accessory

Merlin is also such a weird choice. He's not really a popular or major character and he's from the worst movie of the series. The ugly stepsister, the king, or the queen would have made more sense.

Maybe he was that popular back then? It has been a really long time since I saw any of the films, so I can´t really say.

Dragon should be her own set

Gingy should not be in the CMF. He should have been the figure in the buildables. Not Puss.

He is one of the main characters, so it makes a lot sense to include him. But yeah, wouldn´t mind if they would have made a big buildable dragon, but I guess since the other sets will be for the new Film it will likely be something else and if the dragon will be included it will be rather small.

It'd be funny if one of the Puss minifigures had his iconic "cute eyes" expression...

If they make the hat he is wearing so he is carring it leaning a bit backwards they could make it as an second print.

Correct! He said they were either postponed or cancelled, but he thinks it’s the former, which makes a lot more sense :laugh: So 72421 and 72422 are mostly likely based on the 5th movie.

In the video, he also said that Shrek and Fiona will have specialised head pieces rather than the standard minifig head, which I think is for the best! :thumbup:

If not they would have had to make new "hair pieces" for them and especially the one for shreak would just look ugly going over the standart head - so would have been really surprised if they went that way, especially since they would need two moulds anyways

See, I think Donkey will cone with Shrek or Puss along with whatever small handheld accessory they have, dunno why, off vibes I guess, I think Dragon won't have an accessory 

I am still hoping for one of the Dronkeys as one of the dragons accessories

As with every series in the last coupla years beside Disney S3, I can’t help but wonder what it would look like had the reduction to 12 figures per series not occurred :hmpf_bad: I’m very happy with the choices here, but having 4 more would’ve added so much!

I imagine Pinocchio will have a nose like Disney's Pinocchio. I'm curious to see how all these figs look. 

I wouldn't be surprised if they reused the exact same piece :laugh_hard: Come to think of it, the series will touch upon quite a few familiar CMF archetypes and tropes, but for a fairy tale parody that's to be expected :snicker: On top of Pinocchio, we'll have a fairy, a knight (sort of), a dragon, a wizard, a villain coming from nobility in possession of a magic mirror, a swashbuckler, a wolf man (sort of), a princess, a gingerbread man, and a character representing a fairy tale species usually portrayed as evil. ...wait, that is every character except for the executioner :rofl:

I have no idea how the dragon would work in minifigure form.

I seem to remember Merlin being semi important with donkey and puss mix up, could be wrong??

The same could be said also for the executioner. Didn’t think he was all the popular

But yea plenty of other side characters they could’ve picked

Merlin doesn’t have a ton of screentime, but it’s more than other side characters have and he is relevant to the proceedings. And yes, he’s also responsible for that body swap :laugh:

The executioner is not super important, but he is pretty iconic to the first movie I’d say ^^ (Or maybe I’m biased because the first one is my favourite)

Personally, I’m very happy with the choices they’ve made. It may not be perfect (like Gingy should have been included in the buildable Shrek & Donkey set, freeing his CMF spot for someone else), but it’s still a very good selection in my eyes :thumbup:

The first parts leaked, new Puss‘ head and torso, plus a 2x3 tile depicting the „beware ogre“ sign ^^ Puss could be from the set or the CMF series, but the tile has to be Shrek‘s CMF accessory! :thumbup:

The Shrek set has leaked! :excited:

Both Shrek and Donkey look much better than Gru for instance! Love the onion references :snicker: The full Puss in Boots minifig looks great too, but the scaling is clearly off. Should’ve been Gingy instead, as others have said before!

Didn't the original CMF list include Puss? I wonder if there was some confusion there because it'd be really weird if he was in both the CMF and this set.

Chopper's body would've been so perfect. Classic example of Lego teams not communicating.

Correct, he’s also part of the CMF series ^^ The CMF one could be a variant, but it wouldn’t be the first time a CMF minifig wasn’t exclusive :laugh:

That wouldn’t work since he’s in the CMF series and thus has to be a minifig, and having both a regular minifig and a …toddlerfig (?) would be weird since they’d share the same head piece :snicker:

Two Shrek sets leaked! :excited: One is a buildable Gingy, the other a swamp playset based on Shrek 5! :thumbup: Love the minifigs, but I doubt the Hagrid-like Shrek we‘re seeing here is the one from the CMF series. The house itself looks neat as well! Too bad we most likely have to wait until April or May for that :shrug_oh_well:

I'm not the biggest fan of the Shrek and Fiona figures. Hopefully (and most likely) these aren't final...

I think Shrek would’ve looked better with just a moulded head rather than being like Hagrid…. I think Gingy looks way out of scale too 

all in all I think the actual set looks great

There's no way those figures are final, right? The color matching is terrible and Shrek's head looks like someone molded clay onto a minecraft head.

Well it is a prelim leak, so in the end neither the figures, nor the build have to be final - and likely aren´t. Especially the figures including donkey look very clearly like they are not final models to me, especially fiona and the kids head don´t even look like ABS to me - Shreks head more, but I hope it isn´t the final one either, as that one looks just aweful.

The overall set looks good and could actually already be the final version.

Given it is a 'prelim leak', I initially thought this was a rendering also considering how awful those figs look!

Folks, no need to hit “panic” button yet, I’m pretty sure eit’s jsut a prelim leak.  We haven’t seen the offical reveals.

We finally have a list of accessories for the CMF series:

  • Shrek: fairy tale book
  • Fiona: Fairy Godmother card
  • Puss in Boots: microphone
  • Dragon: smoke blast pieces & Donkey
  • Big Bad Wolf: sack
  • Executioner: “Awww” sign
  • Pinocchio: at least one of the blind mice
  • Gingy: lollipop
  • Farquaad: magic mirror
  • Merlin: fire of truth
  • Fairy Godmother: wand
  • Charming: sword

Sounds like a good selection of accessories! Wonder what the fire of truth will look like :snicker:
