That makes sense. I just hate the way it looks. I mean, include a hat accessory or something to cover it. Bleh. They really dropped the ball with Mickey.

My money is on Series 2 having a Sorcerer's Apprentice variant, and possibly a Top Hat variant even later on than that.

Stitch is glorious. :wub: Wonderful figure, I'm going to try to get as many of him as I can! The printing indicating his tail is just the cutest, very well done. He's definitely the best figure in the series for me! :thumbup:

Thanks for the review!

It's really too bad that there's grey on Ursula's otherwise fantastic, brightly shining, white hairpiece! (I have a knack for white hairpieces :wink:) Her bottom piece.. eh, I'm fine with that.

My love for these just keeps growing!... except for Mickey, go home. I'd be maaad if any of my minifigs came out with misprints like Peter Pan's mouth though.

And Buzz, holy crap. I love whoever made him. Glad I didn't get the one from 2010.

Not my photo but these have been spotted in a Target in Denver, CO. DPCI is still 204-00-1379

Why're the eyes always so small on every photo I see? They're not.. printed correctly.

Gads, I just don't know about this series. I want to like it, but I just don't. I don't like the way they did Ursula's torso, I don't like the way they did Genie's head/hair/ears, I don't know why they chose that silly green alien from Toy Story 2 when the slot could have gone to someone a lot more deserving, and all of the faces look ... off to me, not very Lego at all. I am also not a fan of the molded heads for Mickey, Minnie, Donald and Daisy, the alien or the Cheshire Cat. Stitch's came out well, though. (I can totally see them using Aladdin's hair and fez for a Dr. Who minifigure somewhere down the road, too). Outside of Maleficent, and *mayyyyybe* Alice, Peter Pan and Aladdin, I really can't see myself purchasing a whole lot of these.

Actually, they gave Buzz and all of the Toy Story crew molded heads when they did sets a while ago. I personally didn't like that look, and I'm glad they did them this way for the minifigure series. I hope that this trend continues.

I know that, that's the whole reason I mentioned Buzz

Looking at these pics closely, the printing quality is indeed VERY poor. While the figures are excellent in my opinion, I hope the bad quality printing is not consistent. Anyway with only 2 weeks away from official release, I can't believe we still haven't got Whitefang's review. Whitefang, where are you? Hopefully won't be long now. I also think Ursula is still a well made figure, if not one of the best in this series. I don't mind the mould or the colour of the torso. I think Lego has put a lot of effort in this one, even though it is not perfect and should be credited for it. I also cannot wait for the next series, hopefully more classic princesses, like snow white, Cinderella, mulan, the lists go on and on.

Yea definelty. That will come out much better. I'd love a Sorcerer's Apprentice with the blue and white stars hat. <3 Would it be possible to do a full robe or would that just be printed? I feel like just doing a standard minifig torso may look odd.

*Sigh* Guess I've got to find a Milhouse and see how a torso swap looks on Ursula.

Hah! Thats too good!

The thing about the knives is bothering me. Are they gold or silver. I prefer silver as they are more versatile amongst other figures I will be giving them too. Pan, if I ger him, is not staying put together for long. At all.

Gold

I don't mind the gold knives at all, much to my own surprise. I feel like they fit Peter's whimsical nature, and I certainly don't mind getting more gold weapons to outfit my Flying Warriors...

If you think about it from a production standpoint, there's already a plethora of pearl gold accessories in this series. Maybe it was a matter of using up the pearl gold color?

It's unfortunate that the Peter Pan in the review has some printing issues. Considering the figures came from Billund, I wonder if they were from the first batch of figures made for this series...

For me, the biggest problem with Stitch and the Little Green Alien is the price per piece thing

They have only 3 pieces. That never happened before in the CMF line

Paying $4 for just 3 pieces is too much, especially considering that you pay the same for Maleficent, who has 9 pieces

Just a thought

Can agree. Mickey also only has 3 pieces and looks worse than the Alien and Stitch.

Oh I didn't notice before but yeah, Mickey has only 3 pieces as well

So you could say he is the worst value Minifig. I'm just wondering if The Alien and Stitch really need accessories? I guess you could give Stitch a collar or a surfboard and the Alien a claw from the claw game or a ray gun(though this would be inaccurate as you never see them carrying a weapon).

The Alien could have been given a pizza, as the Aliens were found on a Pizza Planet Truck in Toy Story 2 (Not the best accessory ever but better than nothing I suppose)

stitch has a couple of dealings with a frog in the first movie, so the frog could have been his accessory. or a book of the ugly duckling.
