  1. Well, the name is pretty close. It's the "Piñata Party Boy" But @Nerd-with-a-Pencil you can post yours anyway. I'm still looking forward to see your series
  2. So, it seems there will be 16 instead of 20 Ninjago Movie CMFs
  3. According to CM4Sci, his actual name is Retro Space Hero So, he is not evil. Other than that, Surfer is actually Surfer Boy, which is pretty much the same So, the names are Corn Cob Guy Rocket Boy Butterfly Girl Hot Dog Vendor Elf Maiden Roman Gladiator Battle Dwarf Circus Strongman Highwayman Verterinarian Dance Instructor Surfer Boy Retro Space Hero Yuppie Gourmet Chef Connoisseur
  4. My thoughts Corn Cob Suit Guy. The face is awful. Just awful. I love the corn cob mold. I like the long sleeves better than the short ones he had in the leaked pics. 8/10 Rocket Boy: Amazing. The Rocket suit could have been more colorful. Love the flag. This one will be the most popular S17 minifigure for sure! 9/10 Butterfly Suit Girl: It seems to be just a girl with butterfly wings, instead of the regular full costume. I have to say this is my least favorite animal costume so far 5/10 Gourmet Chef: She is ok I guess. 2 new molds is always good. The pie looks amazing. 7/10 Circus Strongman: Long overdue. He looks nice. I like the new weight piece. And the leopard pattern is exactly what I wanted. 8/10 Elf Maiden: She looks amazing, but I hoped she would be made to match the S3 Elf. Her color scheme looks interesting. I would have prefered a bow+arrow piece in a new tan color instead of a sword. 8/10 Battle Dwarf: I don't like this one... at all. That hair+beard combination looks.... not good. Which is bad since I had high expectations for this one. The molded short legs don't really work for him. 4/10 Retro Spaceman: I'm unsure about this one. His helmet and gun pieces are kinda cartoony. At least, they are trying something new here. New space gun piece! Finally! After all these years. 7/10 Yuppie: This one doesn't look like a CMF. I just find him to be boring and plain. Probably the worst one from this wave. I think the original Robin hairpiece would have been better, IMO. 2/10 Connoisseur: When I think on the stereotype of a frenchman, I think on a guy with a bottle of wine and a croissant/baguette. I don't really know what that dog is doing there. I mean, I like the dog, but it doesn't really fit with the minfigure. About the minifigure itself, I have to say I find the torso to be kinda plain. I would have prefered a new scarf piece and a bottle of wine instead of the new dog. I know, unpopular opinion here. 7/10 Dance Instructor: I like the hairpiece and how they made the bottle but that's it about her. I would have prefered girl with casual 80's clothes, because she looks way too similar to the S5 Fitness Instructor. Also, no boombox for a Dance Instructor? 6/10 Highwayman: ????? His silhouette looks good ?/10 Surfer: A blatant rehash from the Series 2 minifigure. That's bad, just bad. It's like the Cheerleaders thing all over again. I like the shark surfboard, but that's it about it. Also, I think that's a hairpiece that is debuting in the CMF, despite being quite old. Interesting. 2/10 Roman Gladiator: I know he is a Retiarius, so it's not a complete rehash from the S5 Gladiator, but still. It's like something we've already seen. There is no novelty here. Nice reuse of the trident piece tho. 6/10 Hot Dog Vendor: Nice tray piece! I nice suprise with this one overall, just like the S16 Hiker. I never got the Angry Brids bun piece, so getting it here is awesome!. Love his overall look. 8/10 Veterinarian: I like the bunny piece, but I find the Veterinarian to be kinda plain. She looks like a normal City character from a modular or something (expect for the face or course). She could have been better. 7/10 Overall I think this series isn't as good as Series 15 or Series 16, which were pretty good with the babies, the dress, the new legs, new shark/penguin arms etc.... Actually this series is kind of weak both by character selection (lots of rehashes in a single series) and also some of the designs are kinda plain like the Yuppie. Which makes me sad because I had high expectations for this series, considering is the only regular series this year. There is a lot of characters they haven't done but yet this series has a lot of rehashes I haven't seen the Highwayman, but this series overall is like a 6/10 for me. I really love this line and I hope there will be a Series 18 next year. There are rumors about Disney 2 and Batman Movie 2 for next year but I still have hope.
  5. So, the sets are not there It's just the boxes with the confidencial stamp
  6. The CMFs are designed a year before the release That would be May 2016, in this case
  7. I think the silhouette thing is just a mistake. Probably someone just forgot to include the picture of the Highwayman
  8. I'm doing it! And I have a speech next monday! Damn you, NY Toy Fair! I think I'll talk about the City Jungle sets and CMF S17
  9. Ugh. Spanish is so tricky. I just don't get it
  10. Not always. Spooky Girl, Tennis Player, Snowboarder and Lifeguard came first And there is a lot of female minifigures that might get a male counterpart in the future, like the Bride, the Fairytale Princess, the Dino Tracker, the Swimming Champion, etc
  11. CMF S17 Retro Spaceman
  12. Sadly, the Elf Maiden doesn't seem to match with the S3 Elf
  13. These are names, by the way 1. Corn Cob Suit Guy 2. Rocket Boy 3. Butterfly Suit Girl 4. Gourmet Chef 5. Circus Strongman 6. Elf Maiden 7. Battle Dwarf 8. Retro Spaceman 9. Yuppie 10. Connoisseur 11. Dance Instructor 12. Highwayman 13. Surfer 14. Roman Gladiator 15. Hot Dog Vendor 16. Veterinarian
  14. Oh sorry guys! I thought you were saying that the character was going to be a shocker because it was amazing I didn't know there was someone called The Shocker How embarrassing
  15. Who is supposed to be the truck driver? Do we know it?
  16. Its a Roman Gladiator. The other one is the Highwayman. Dont know why he is still a mystery
  17. That huge stone monster tho... Also, spoiler alert with the queen figure in the castle set
  18. It looks awesome but it could have been better
  19. Oh! Im not sure if I like the Retro Spaceman The Rocket Suit looks amazing Lots of hairpieces! Why does the French Guy come with a dog?
  20. It's plural The spanish version is "Los Ultimos Jedi", the portuguese title is "Os Últimos Jedi" and the german version is "Die letzten Jedi", which are all plural That means, "The Last Jedi" is plural
  21. Wow. That was way too fast. I actually never saw it until now It works fine for me!
