  1. Considering that Itaria put "Satyr" on his list of guesses, it's safe to say that he's also confirmed.
  2. I created little 3x4 bases for them, with two jumper tiles framed by a 1x4 in the front and two 1x2 tiles on the sides. That way, they're centered and in line with the others, while their bases match the size and shape of the others' in their rows. For the Plant Monster, the vines aren't a good indicator. The big round piece with a finger-sized indent is.
  3. The plot thickens...wait, how on earth does anyone know what's in the next series?
  4. I'd like: 1. Teacher- as suggested, ruler and apple. 2. Baker/Chef 3. Gothic Maid- just to have another creepy monochrome figure 4. Satyr- almost a given due to the hints dropped by Itaria 5. Pirate- normal rank, not a captain 6. Super Hero- this would be fun to see 7. Evil Sorceress- I'd love to see a villainous magic female 8. Spy- either a modern secret agent or an old-timey trenchcoat spy 9. Prince- To go with the FT Princess 10. Athlete- generic guy to fill out sports characters 11. Sprite- male fairy character 12. Doctor- we've had a nurse, so why not? 13. Scientist- just to have a normal, sane, male one would be nice. 14. Lady Clown- might be a nice addition to the circus 15. Classic Queen- made to match the S13 King 16. Sleepy Girl- pink pajamas, teddy bear, counterpart to S6 Sleepyhead
  5. I opened it and broke it on purpose, because it was too weak to be used anywhere. I had a few spare ones, so I just replaced it.
  6. I'd love it. Heck, I just want a new Joker! I wouldn't be surprised to see that hair on him.
  7. Oh, that's nice. WhendoesitcomeoutIneedhimsobadly....
  8. They're replacing a bad batch of parts in the neck. This is annoying since the greater problem is the head rotation.
  9. The Spooky Girl is black-and-white because she's partially based on Wednesday Addams, a spooky little girl on the black-and-white television show, The Addams Family. Her design itself is meant to reflect a spooky Japanese schoolgirl. She's never stated to be a ghost or vampire, although she could be if you want her to. But Anansi has nothing to do with her. Someone didn't understand the mythological connection when labeling her as such.
  10. I got the three Zombies and the Skeleton Guy today. I love the Businessman! The Skeleton Guy is great, too. The Cheerleader and Pirate are good, but not in my favorites. I'm not going to open the Businessman's case, since I've heard about them breaking. Perhaps I'll replace it with another one.
  11. I honestly hope it's not the goblin hat. I don't think they need to use it a third time just yet. A Lady Goblin would probably be the character to use it, too, so I wouldn't want that. EDIT: Apparently, there's a Shark Suit Guy being suggested by someone "in the know".
  12. Here's a mockup of the hypothetical Satyr's headpiece. Thank goodness the CG version is unprinted! Yes, the returning part is a new mold introduced in S12 or S13. Since it's been mentioned in the other thread by guessers, a Satyr seems like the best guess.
  13. She just turns into a giant spider. Not all of them are Anansi...
  14. I would hope they'd be peg legs, but I won't expect it. Printed legs with hooves on the toes seem more likely, if only to provide a sitting stud connection. For his torso, I expect him to be bare-chested, and either wearing the Pan pipes on a necklace or holding them as a new piece. His face could be interesting.
  15. Wacky Witch's hair is probably being reused for DC's Scarecrow. The Goblin's hat is possible, but unlikely to create a unique figure. Perhaps a Cthulhu figure with the Alien Trooper head? Or is that a stretch?
  16. Possible, but harpies were avian humanoids. The Gargoyle's wings are too batlike/dragonlike.
  17. Itaria says there's a mythological figure in S15, reusing a part from the past two series. My guess is a Satyr reusing the Gargoyle's cranium. The goatlike horns and pointed ears are perfect for a satyr. But the forehead is too brutish, so it might not work perfectly. Somewhere on the Satyr there should be Pan pipes, but it would be better if they were a new accessory mold! S14 had zero.
  18. Totally calling a satyr. The gargoyle forehead isn't a perfect match, but the horns and ears are. I look forward to seeing it if I'm right.
  19. That's the peril of not completing series...if a counterpart you like appears, you are compelled to get the original, and might not be able to. But usually the counterparts go to a fig I already like and own.
  20. Flash has had vehicles before. It's totally pointless, but he has the Flashmobile.
  21. I'd be fine with a Zombie Football Player. He'd go great with the Cheerleader!
  22. After Nekchirgate, I'm still left hesitant to believe.But I hope it's true that any of these proposed figs will be happening. If the next themed series isn't mythology, it's probably Fairy Tales, which would be a better place for characters like Baba Yaga.
  23. This is impossible to answer. But some of my all-time favorites are Medusa, the Clockwork Robot, Mr. Good and Evil, the Spooky Girl, the Goblin, and the Banshee and Spider Lady. Of course, I love almost all of the CMFs, but the ones I listed were some of the ones that instantly attracted me and made me very happy. As for why I like them? Simply put, I think their designs are perfect. I don't throw that word around lightly, but these guys just did everything right. Instantly recognizable and very unique. Spooky's one of my favorites due to her subtlety and restraint. You know she's creepy due to her colors (or lack thereof) but the rest of her design also contributes to that vibe without making it over-the-top. On the reverse, I like the Spider Lady and Evil Wizard because they're over-the-top. It's variable, but this theme has contributed some truly spectacular designs.
  24. Oh, it looks good. I can't wait to see the official one, which I assume will have a more detailed print and a better face.
