  1. Oh yeah, I agree. The lack of leg printing is surely something that's lacking, but the flatness of thr shirt is so annoying to me, I just can't get past it. As another commenter said, it's probably meant to be a tshirt with printing (like a cosplay? A costume?) and I agree, but I dislike the choice they made. But yeah, it's still good enough that I'm going to buy 5 as usual with knight and new castle factions. I completely agree. Every detail is perfect. The printed armor that correlates with the leg printing, the shield, the face, the plume, and most of all: the superb chainmail underneath. So repurposable, so clean-looking. No overdesign that makes it hard to use for an army with a different colour scheme. It was unnecessary but such a great addition to the minifig. One of the best CMF minifigs of all time.
  2. I was looking forward to seeing her torso and... I'm a bit disappointed, to be honest. Seeing the recent modernisation of the Black Falcons and the Lion Knights, with so much detail, this feels very plain, even cheap. There are no "folds" on the fabric, there is no belt, it seems so unnatural for modern standards. Just a bit of chainmail around the neck, then a uniformly coloured flat background. The fright night chainmail from a previous cmf series was also top-notch and super detailed, in comparison.
  3. Not a single pack out in the wild yet? The only thing i care about is finding out whether the knight girl has a chainmail underneath the armor, for army-building purposes. Even though the fact that she has a printed shield already implies a must buy for me, in five copies.
  4. As a huge Castle / Medieval fan, that's what I almost screamed on the subway seeing the picture yesterday! I really hope we get a chainmail or a vest with the same crown from the shield, though I'm keeping my expectations low. The Fright Knight vest was amazing and unexpected. This one looks like a costume more than an actual knight (being a kid with a fake horse and castle-irrelevant leg printing) and I am really afraid we are going to get a plain torso or maybe a modern-looking t-shirt / shirt. I'm also ambivalent about the light bley / golden colour combination. I always regret not having a metallic silver helmet to go with the metallic silver mask, because i can't pair it with anything. It looks horrible without it imho, the contrast between metallic and plain is just too stark.
  5. While this sounds very likely and your intentions are probably good, I'd just like to say that it doesn't hurt to hope though, and you could have left it to us to be disappointed if nothing came out of it :( at least we were going to enjoy the speculation and excitement for a couple months, if they were really going to say that no physical theme would accompany the park theme. Now i'm just sad and disappointed, even before having factual reason in front of my eyes to be sad and disappointed. A new mythical theme would've been awesome, for me. I really wished for some new fantasy - castle like minifigures and prints. I don't have the space, money or time to build actual castles anymore, but i still like to collect castle minifigs and fantasy races. This theme gave me such hope for something new. I honestly really disliked the prints and (much too bright imo) colour patterns from the most recent castle line (was it 2013-14? Red and black dragons, bright blue and white lions?). At least the last couple cmf series had two great torsoes for castle (the yellow and black ravens are sweet, and the fright knight had that plain flat silver torso that was just so useful), and there have been also some decent single minifigs from other lines, like some fire demons from nexo knights (a theme i totally disliked for everything else) or a couple torsoes from ninjago. And some fantasy minifugs from cmf. Cmf is really saving my interest in Lego, honestly. If only they didn't make all those, dc, batman, disney figs it would even be better. I'm sorry if this comes out as a rant, i don't have anything against you, i just love lego and find it a pleasant hobby-distraction from this shitty world and situation, and was really hoping for this new theme.
