thekeeperofthereaper Posted January 30, 2021 winnie the pooh was a huge part of my childhood growing up its going to be a day one buy for me im just hoping eeyore is included as i was obsessed with disneys many adventures of winnie the pooh tv series and some of my favourite episodes was centred on him , it would also be stupid to leave out christopher robin as a minifigure im expecting a few easter eggs in the set too Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He obviously can’t be made in the standard minifig form but will that mean he gets a new full body mold. It’s really unlikely and the most obvious option is him getting cut from the set. I’m really rooting for eeyore but I think the roster will be Pooh, Piglet, tiger and rabbit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BigGuy4U Posted January 30, 2021 I'd be surprised if they cut Eeyore, he'll require a lot of resources to make but also he's one of the most marketed Pooh characters, much moreso than Rabbit. It would be weird for him to be absent. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thekeeperofthereaper Posted January 31, 2021 im expecting the set to come with a beehive or 2 and a log to be placed just outside the house for pooh to think about things On 1/30/2021 at 3:48 PM, BigGuy4U said: I'd be surprised if they cut Eeyore, he'll require a lot of resources to make but also he's one of the most marketed Pooh characters, much moreso than Rabbit.

Surge Posted March 3, 2021 New teaser released! I would expect the full reveal any day now even though it seems a bit early. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not officially, but a leaker on IG claims there’s going to be 5. There’s no way Eeyore has been realised as a minifig (or so I hope), so I guess he’s been replaced by Christopher Robin I know the scaling would be WAY off, but when has that ever stopped them Edited March 3, 2021 by Lego-Freak Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JintaiZ Posted March 3, 2021 The full reveal can be any day now, I'm definitely looking forward to it. However, the Adults Welcome sections seems completely inappropriate. I'm okay with more complex/bigger sets being 18+, but this set feels more like a playset than a display piece... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
doclord Posted March 3, 2021 (edited) I'm expecting Eeyore to be a new mold that looks like the pig animal, and then two other animals. Christopher Robin would be too wonky and Tigger and Rabbit are popular/fit the minifig proportions. Pluto in the new Mickey sets shows that they are not afraid of making new molds for Disney animals now. Edited March 3, 2021 by doclord Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Surge Posted March 3, 2021 If Eeyore is a one piece mold/brick built character, I wonder if the leaker counted him as one of the 5 or there is 5 and Eeyore. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BigGuy4U Posted March 3, 2021 I find it hard to believe Eeyore would get cut, he's one of the most iconic Pooh characters. (Granted, the cast isn't that large anyway, but still...) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BrickBob Studpants Posted March 3, 2021 I wonder why they still refuse to reuse that awesome balloon piece introduced in CMF S18 Don't get me wrong, the brick-built version looks nice too, but nowhere near as good IMO. The 'hunny' jar on the other hand is excellent, I hope the set includes at least two or three of those Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
doclord Posted March 3, 2021 Pooh, Piglet, Tigger and Eeyore are the big mandatory 4, the fifth can be swapped around but I think it’ll be Rabbit using the same mold Bugs Bunny will have. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

To be honest, these characters are the equally big characters. It's possible that the way Kanga and Roo's names combine to make the word 'Kangaroo' impressed itself on little tiny me in a way that a Rabbit called 'Rabbit' didn't. It's probably coming up twenty years since I last read or watched anything Pooh related (other than Goodbye Christopher Robin, which while a beautiful film was more about the Milnes than their characters) so far be it from me to ever try and claim to be an authority on which characters were the bigger ones!

Retro Posted March 3, 2021 The two books, 'Winnie The Pooh' and 'The House at Pooh Corner' are two of the best written (and illustrated) stories that any person of any age will ever read. And Rabbit is much more important than Kanga and Roo, in the overall scheme of things. And Owl and Eeyore rank ahead of Kanga, Roo and Tigger in story importance too. Not that it really matters. It's like choosing between your children. All wonderful. 🙂 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
spiderfan2000 Posted March 4, 2021 The latest post from Lego_Fulcrum seems to indicate that Pooh, Piglet, Tigger, Rabbit and Eeyore will be the included characters of the set. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Robert8 Posted March 4, 2021 Why don't they just reuse the Series 18 balloon mold? Is it to increase the piece count? Other than that, this just confirms my first impression. He needed medium legs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
4bee Posted March 4, 2021 has there been any info on the piece count for this set? I will get it, but hoping for a piece count lower than the Blacksmith. Otherwise collecting all Ideas sets gets too expensive! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
