It was in BAM also, but never in any sets I think Strange since it is a nice mould much better than the original snake..

Was it the last ‘squishy’ animal we got? Was always puzzled why it didn’t show up in another colour-way at least

Is there any evidence that they DIDN’T though … ?

boring old green and black snakes in the Indy set, it seems - no new colours.

It looks like the snakes could be dark blue and dark green. Would those be new colors for them?

You’re right. That’s why these leaks are a pain - yes those are both new colours I think

Looks like 2 new colours (+1 for the half snake)

New updated chicken/hen mould:



"There is one new mould in the set, although it is subtly altered rather than something completely new. Chicken in Dark Turquoise (6441823 | 1413) replaces the previous Chicken element with Design ID 95342. The differences seem to mainly be a more defined wattle and a smoother area between the legs and base.

 

The previous mould has appeared unprinted in four colours:

• Warm Gold (6170816 | 95342)
• Silver Metallic/Flat Silver (6059314 | 95342)
• Medium Stone Grey/Light Bluish Grey (6146899 | 95342)
• White (6063271 | 95342)"

New chicken mold when other animal molds are more frequently requested kind of gets my goat ...

I'll see myself out ... :D

It made me smile, and then cry.

So you can stay.

I am not much into technical things when it comes to plastic, but apparently Lego have started using a different type of plastic which may require a new mould?

Or it can simply be that the mould was worn out after 12 years in the poultry business

Factory produced chickens, after all

Oh! I can’t wait to see them recolor this one in a near future. Thank you, pal!
