TeriXeri Posted December 12, 2022 (edited) It's interesting to see how different the 2023 Disney minidolls are compared to 2022, same characters but very different style of prints, especially the eyes and mouth prints have very different proportions and shapes. So it's not just friends getting a doll makeover. Edited December 12, 2022 by TeriXeri Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JeanGreyForever Posted December 21, 2022 The Spider character from the new Avatar sets has a hairpiece that would be perfect for Disney's Tarzan if it came in brown instead of dark blonde. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
THELEGOBATMAN Posted December 21, 2022 Has anyone considered the possibility of Carl's House being a microscale set? I really hope it's not the case, since that's one of my dream sets, but the number of pieces is line with the Disney Castle and the Haunted Mansion. The only difference is that the set numbers for those were different, and the one for Carl's House is in line with other regular Disney sets. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think it’s been brought up before, and while I’d prefer something in a bigger scale, microscale is the likeliest option I’m afraid. The balloons alone would make a minifig-scale set below $120 next to impossible Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Still, I hope it makes a nice display piece. Minifigures are a must tho, without those I probably won't buy that set. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Luckily if I recall correctly the price point is above the micro castle and haunted mansion, which would suggest wiggle room for multiple accompanying minifigures instead of just one like the others. We definitely need at least Carl and Russel, preferably Doug as well (the golden retriever mold already exists after all). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, I'd be happy with a well-done microscale model with those three characters. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, but Doug looks nothing like a regular golden retrievet (let alone the existing mold), the movie style is way more cartooney, so he'd need a new one Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I just think a molded Doug next to a Carl and Russel using standard minifigure heads wouldn’t look quite right. It would be like if they’d done the Winnie the Pooh set with a molded Eeyore but just given the rest of the included characters printed minifigure heads. Yes, Doug is in a very cartoonish style, but so are the rest of the characters (Carl’s head is square and takes up over 1/3 of his height), so I think you’d either need to do new molds for everyone (which might not fit the budget and doesn’t fit with their previous handling of Pixar’s penchant for nonstandard body proportions in human characters) or make the designs fit on the current system the best they can.

SoupOrFishOil Posted December 22, 2022 Maybe there is a Friends mold that could work for Dug? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
