Jarreth2 Posted November 6, 2016 Posted November 6, 2016 Browsing the UK Lego website last week I noticed that the Disney minifigs now say 'retired product' .. seems like a very short release time T_T Quote
Bricknblue Posted November 6, 2016 Posted November 6, 2016 Targets and even Walmarts near me (which is uncommon for them) have a Disney box. Five Below had a Disney Box and Target received a ton of Disney and Series 16 last week. Quote

Several people on this page of the thread are talking about it and it appears to have happened to some degree based on several sightings. I know 3rd party resellers and small shops raise the prices for discontinued items all the time, but its fairly uncommon in big box retail stores that care mostly about having items on the shelves that turn over quickly. So I'm just curious if others saw the 4.50 price because it could indicate a trend for future CMF series. They are the standard $3.99 price everywhere that I have seen them. I've actually tracked down over 10 stores in my area that have/ had them again. Could just be that retailer you saw them at. Quote
Jarreth2 Posted January 21, 2017 Posted January 21, 2017 (edited) I posted this on the Batman minifigures page .. but then thought the Disney fans amongst us might appreciate it too. When I first saw the Fairy Batman figure I suddenly thought 'a great costume for Minnie' .. the only things were that the skirt piece and the wings made her seem too tall ^_^ Edited January 21, 2017 by Jarreth2 Quote

julesvincent Posted January 22, 2017 Posted January 22, 2017 (edited) @Robert8 here she is with Librarian, but with Bumblebees Wings. The skirt piece should be the same hight. Edited January 22, 2017 by julesvincent Quote
Jarreth2 Posted January 22, 2017 Posted January 22, 2017 Thanks Julesvincent for helping out .. apologies Robert8 I'm not at home at the moment .. otherwise I'd have got a pic up for you Quote
rkastar Posted February 27, 2017 Posted February 27, 2017 I believe the second wave will come at Late 2017 and include Beauty and the Beast. Quote

TAFOL Posted February 27, 2017 Posted February 27, 2017 I hope that the Disney Series returns next year. There are still some characters (Goofy, Dopey, Pinocchio, to name a few) that I'd like to see in minifigure form. Quote
rob-ot5000 Posted February 27, 2017 Posted February 27, 2017 Current word-on-the-street is that Disney CMF Series 2 has been scrapped. It's pretty disappointing. Quote

Very disappointing. I wonder what could be the cause? It seemed to be really popular and both Disney and Lego love making money. Unless they're considering a fully-fledged "Disney" theme with mini figures and builds? But, surely they'd be worried about competition / confusion with the Disney Princess line which seems to sell very well? Quote

Really? I'm not going to say that I'm happy........ but I'm not going to say that I'm not Hope this means there will be 2 regular CMFs next year Edited February 28, 2017 by Robert8 Quote
sunhuntin Posted February 28, 2017 Posted February 28, 2017 Hopefully it has just been pushed back as opposed to scrapped. I need a lego goofy! He got overlooked in Disney Infinity, would hate to see him left out again. Looking at the existing minifigs, only Maleficent doesnt have a "partner" so we need either Sleeping Beauty or one of the Good Fairies. Quote

LegoAndDisney Posted March 6, 2017 Posted March 6, 2017 There's no evidence to back up that a future line has been cancelled. I think considering the castle has won toy of the year, I really don't think Lego will scrap anything Disney-related as it is a good money spinner. Quote

Same. There's no way Lego will let this go though; the castle has been massively popular and I'd say the CMF series have probably sold better than the Princess sets by far. Quote
