Assuming they represent Muppet characters (other than Big Bird) with minifigures in the first place. If they include human characters like Gordon and Maria, the LEGO Games-style microfigures would be a better fit for Ernie, Bert, Grover, the Count, etc. scale-wise.

I would hate it if the muppets ended up being microfigures instead of minifigures.The premise of minifigure muppets is the prime reason as why I'm looking forward to this set.

Same. Seeing microfigures in the set would probably be the same turn-off like the microscale Hogwarts castle. I want this set primarily for the minifigures, especially Oscar and Cookie Monster ?

Pulp Detective Posted September 2, 2020 Some people have speculated that the set will drop in November since it's the series anniversary month.Fingers crossed we'll see leaks start dropping soon. Also I recently found out that there will be a Sesame Street movie in 2022.Maybe then Lego will have a good excuse to reuse the molds in new sets or a cmf.

TheLegoDr Posted September 4, 2020 I keep forgetting about this set. Another expensive set I'll have to add to the list...this is getting frustrating. If only I had more money, and time to build them, and space to display them, and... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And November would also fit very well in terms of the anniversary. Nevertheless, I wouldn't complain about an earlier release ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dr.Cogg Posted September 11, 2020 Lego could release it mid October for VIPs and the regular release could be November. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pulp Detective Posted September 11, 2020 Just now, Lego-Freak said: What kind of torso printing were you expecting? His entire body is red! Yes but he's a furry muppet just like Grover or Oscar. They could've given him at the least a print like the Cowardly Lion. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If the lack of print on Elmo was cause of budget limitations then I’m glad since he doesn’t really need it. Characters like Ernie, Bert, and Count are ones that really need torso printing. The molds while simple are better than the print on standard minifigure heads like the project had. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Huigberts Builds Posted September 11, 2020 How good to see new molds. He looks a little funny though. The mold kinda looks like a knockoff mold. But I thought the same of the Disney leaks back in the day, and I love those now. I don't mind the lack of torso print as I rather have the budget go towards the molds. Just as long as the characters with clothes get prints. I guess Grover and Oscar can use the same mold if they print the unibrow and nose. But I thought the same about Cookiemonster and Elmo and that's already of the table so who knows. I'm just really curious which characters we'll get. I really think/hope they'll leave out the humans as they're exclusive to almost only the English version of the program, plus I don't wanna miss out on muppets just to get humans.

Robert8 Posted September 11, 2020 Bert looks great! And Elmo too! New molds for LEGO Ideas is a thing now. And multiples for a single set! What a day to be alive... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Huigberts Builds Posted September 11, 2020 Oooh I love Bert. So glad he has the midlegs. His little turtle neck being molded is also very funny to me somehow. So this basically confirms Ernie as well. I think Cookiemonster and Big Bird are also save bets. Not sure about the others though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
