  1. If this is true, this would be the most messed up series ever
  2. Well.... welcome ....... I guess
  3. Here are my thoughts on this series Maleficent: The "Mistress all Evil" is actually a pretty decent minifigure. Her headdress looks really accurate to the character. Her staff.... well, not so much but in this case it's not a bad thing. I hope she has double sided face with a menacing/angry expression. 8/10 Cheshire Cat: Kudos to whoever had the idea of releasing him as a minifigure. His moulded head looks really wood. I wonder if this opens the door for more animals to be transformed into bipedal minifigures in future series (Rafiki, Timon, Pumbaa, Dumbo?). 8/10 Mr. Incredible: The Incredibles 2 is coming soon so it's not surprising to get him in this series. But, as others have pointed out, he looks like Dash. He is kinda plain overall. 6/10 Little Green Man: He is probably the most accurate of them all. His moulded head is amazing. This is meant to be the army builder in this series and, luckily for LEGO, a cost saver. 9/10 Minnie: The best part is her dress piece, which I think is plastic, like the S15 Ballerina's tutu. Other than that, she looks creepy. Like Mickey on drag. 4/10 Mickey: Oddly, he is most meh minifigure in the wave. And he looks creepy. The long legs make him look like someone wearing a costume. No accessory for him is weird and enhances the meh effect. 3/10 Peter Pan: He looks a lot like Shaggy, and I think it's because they gave him long legs. Other than that, it's an average minifigure. Nice hairpiece though. 7/10 Genie. Oh boy... This is the worst of the line and a contender for worst CMF ever. He needed a moulded head, because his a Jinn, not a human. And you can see how different his face compared to humans like Aladdin and Jasmin. LEGO probably chose to gave him a normal head after all the criticism for the Simpsons series. There is nothing interesting about him. 0/10 Ursula: I think she is the best minifigure in the wave. Her new tentacles piece looks fantastic and her hairpiece is pretty accurate. I think she needed a moulded head because she is a squid, not a human but there is no harm in this case. 9/10 Ariel: The only Disney Princess in this series is a very good minifigure. Her hairpiece is amazing but her accessories are like... wtf? 8/10 Sticht: He is clearly one of the highlights of this series and..... he is clearly missing Lilo, so this is biggest hint that Disney Series 2 is going to happen. His headmould is amazing! 9/10 Aladdin: Very good minifigure overall. His accessory is pretty accurate and his hairpiece is amazing. 8/10 Capitan Hook: I know he is human but he totally needed a moulded head. I mean c'mon! He looks even weirder because Peter Pan is there too and they gave the same head piece, which is totally inaccurate if you compare them. Maybe they could have tried with a new head that looks like a regular lego head at the top (and therefore allows to attach regular LEGO hairpieces to it) but with a extended chin and nose. Disney likes to draw the villains with sharper lines to make them look more menacing (with the exceptions of Madame Medusa and Ursula). Sadly, that effect was lost in translation to LEGO in this case (On the other hand, Maleficent looks very good). He is my biggest disappointment in the line because Hook is one of my favorite Disney characters. 2/10 Daisy: aka Donald in drag. Nothing special here. She looks kida meh. Her head looks creepy.She and Donald look better than Mickey and Minnie 4/10 Donald. Creepy ad well. I wonder if this headmould is going to return in the future as one of Donald's nephews. It would need just a cap, and apparently there is a hole in this head, so it work. 4/10 Buzz: He needed a moulded head, because he is toy, not a human. If you compare him with the humans in the movie (Andy, her mon, her sister, ...) there is noticeable that Buzz don't have a regular human head shape (Actually I think only the Shepherd Girl has it). Other than that, nice cost saver. 6/10 Syndrome. I barely remember this guy, but I guess it was included to increase the playability. Oddest inclusion for sure. Even more, than the Cheshire Cat. That been said, he looks very good. Her hairpiece is amazing and his outfit is pretty accurate. This is the level of accuracy I expected for all the minifigures in this line. 8/10 Alice: Her face looks odd but ok. She is average minifigure but her hairpiece is beautiful. The bottle makes her look like she is drunk. I wonder if she was another accessory but it's unlikely as all of them have only 1 in this series. 6/10
  4. I'm surprised to see Elsa's palace is #1 because that's not the best set produced by LEGO in 2015.... Not even close. (it has flowers and fire! ). But then again, it's "Frozen" Everything Frozen related just makes money by itself
  5. Oh wait, Alice has short legs? I noticed it but I thought it was Aladdin's lamp There is something weird in Cap Hook's hook, right? I see something white
  6. Top 5 Themes *In no particular order Top 5 Sets #5 - Heartlake Grand Hotel #4 - Mindstorms EV3 #3 - City Police Station #2 - Millennium Falcon And the best selling LEGO product in 2015 was..... #1 - Elsa’a Sparkling Ice Castle It seems Star Wars and Frozen are the most profitable LEGO licenses right now Surprisingly, the Superheroes theme is not in the TOP 5
  7. Apparently Zootopia is a hit. The reception and reviews are 90-95% positive Disney has been on fire since 2009: The Princess And The Frog, Tangled, Wreck-It Ralph, Frozen, Big Hero 6, Inside Out and now Zootopia. They just..... know how to do it.... It's amazing
  8. Yeah I'll be checking this thread because I need some tips A got the Museum Break-in set recently and I messed up one of the stickers
  9. Everyone? I don't know about that.... since they were revealed las night, these have been getting mixed reactions on social media Of course, I expect that to change to positive when the official pics are out
  10. The CMF's have some interesting stuff for Sci-Fi fans this year Disney CMF's have Buzz Lightyear and 2 aliens: Stitch and Little Green Man from Toy Story Series 16 is rumored to have a Cyborg minifigure
  11. Like I said in the CMF thread, I think Goofy will be exclusive to this sets Because............ LEGO is evil
  12. We know That happens. You're not the only one who has posted rumors that turned out to be incorrect or just partially correct It was the Gargoyle horns piece. He said a S14 new piece could be useful for a S15 minifigure because he knew about the Faun, but he never said that was the actual piece ----- That been said, I'm really excited after reading this! Can't wait to see them!
  13. The Disneyworld Castle is the most iconic of them all, but my favorite is the Beaty and the Beast Castle
  14. Ohhhhhh Goofy will be exclusive to that set..... Like Snake last year I'm calling it
  15. I see him too cartoony for historic MOC's but yeah maybe
  16. just2good said we *might* be getting LEGO Batman Movie and Ninjago Movie CMF waves. Given the release dates, those would be the Jan 2017 and the Sep 2017 CMF series. And given the characters chosen for the Disney series, it's safe to assume there will be-at least-another one. That would be the May 2017 wave. I hope you're right I'd would be ok with at least 1 normal series
  17. I'm sorry amazingbricks It's was a friendly joke I know sometimes the rumors turned out to be not true. It's not your fault :classic: :classic: :classic: :classic: :classic: :classic: :classic: :classic: :classic: :classic: :classic: :classic: :classic: :classic: :classic: :classic: :classic: :classic: :classic: :classic: :classic: :classic: :classic: :classic:
  18. We are not complaining about that because Mickey legs are not noticable when almost all the minifigures in the series look like they were made by lele
  19. Here are some predictions for the quotes: Little Green Man: "The clawwwwwwwww!" And that's it. Thanks for reading
  20. My wishlist for Disney Series 2 1.The Sorcerer's Apprentice 2.Minnie with Pluto 3.Goofy 4.Winnie the Pooh 5.Jafar 6.Prince Phillip 7.Lilo 8.Snow White 9.Hercules 10.Mrs. Incredible 11.Piglet 12.Hades 13.Aurora 14.Rafiki with baby Simba 15.Grumpy 16.Pinocchio 17.Woody 18.Tinker Bell
  21. I'd like to see better pictures but I think that's a very specific mould that they can't use outside the license, just like the Darth Vader helmet piece
  22. From the Disney Series, it seems Aladdin and Maleficent will be useful for Castle fans Edit by Hinkley: removed image
  23. sorry to burst your bubble but that piece has a red feather moulded on it
  24. I think that's a banner/poster for stores, not a catalog page
