strangely Posted April 12, 2016 Posted April 12, 2016 (edited) I love all the face printing and the new hair colors. Too bad I'll have no chance to get these. Oh well. Edited April 12, 2016 by strangely Quote
BrickTamland Posted April 12, 2016 Posted April 12, 2016 Looks great, but I'm not up to date on the team, why no Ozil? Quote
DarthPotato Posted April 12, 2016 Posted April 12, 2016 They look pretty good. I'm mainly interested in them for the new flesh heads and newly colored hair pieces, but the figures themselves aren't bad either. Some of their smiles remind me of the faces of the old NBA figures though. Hopefully these won't be too expensive for everyone that doesn't live in Germany. I remember ordering the Team GB minifigures for a really fair price, so I'm hoping the same thing will happen with these. Quote
Actor Builder Posted April 12, 2016 Posted April 12, 2016 German faces for my Indiana Jones Nazi Soldiers! Completely taboo, but wonderful! Quote
Moelli Posted April 12, 2016 Posted April 12, 2016 These are my guesses @KCMatze I don't see Mesut Özil and Mats Hummels here I trink that Bellarabi is actually Hummels and Gomez is Özil. Quote
BrickTamland Posted April 12, 2016 Posted April 12, 2016 I trink that Bellarabi is actually Hummels and Gomez is Özil. Yeah I see it now, I was worried there for a second. Thanks Quote
Robert8 Posted April 12, 2016 Posted April 12, 2016 (edited) I also thought that one was Hummels, but their skin color don't match (at least for me). Same with Ozil. I guess we'll find out later today anyway Edited April 12, 2016 by Robert8 Quote
Yooha Posted April 12, 2016 Posted April 12, 2016 If that one is Özil, then the eyes don't match :) Quote
promobricks Posted April 12, 2016 Posted April 12, 2016 Short news update from PROMOBRICKS: The LEGO Minifigures DFB Special Edition (71014) will arrive at German LEGO Brand Store at 2nd May 2016, in other store 14th May! Stay tuned for further updates .. i'll start live blogging at 9.45 am Quote
Robert8 Posted April 12, 2016 Posted April 12, 2016 (edited) I made a mistake with the names I just noticed that the "Lukas Podolski" minifigure has the captain band printed on his left arm. So, that means he is actually Bastian Schweinsteiger, because he is the captain. Here it is fixed Again, just guesses Edited April 12, 2016 by Robert8 Quote

Borex Posted April 12, 2016 Posted April 12, 2016 (edited) I think Löw is spot on! Superhard to feel though. I think the best shot for german afols is to buy a box and sell the figs to non germans to complete the team. Edited April 12, 2016 by Borex Quote
paul_delahaye Posted April 12, 2016 Posted April 12, 2016 (edited) First thing that came to mind was how hard these will be to feel up, no unique body parts, no unique hair pieces or accessories. Talking about accessories, I expected every one to come with a football! Edited April 12, 2016 by paul_delahaye Quote
promobricks Posted April 12, 2016 Posted April 12, 2016 The complete LEGO Minifigures DFB Special Edition (71014) press-conference you will find here: Have fun and enjoy the details! Quote
Artimus Posted April 12, 2016 Posted April 12, 2016 Looks like we have Neuer Hummels Mustafi Boateng Howedes Khedira Kramer Kroos Ozil Reus Schurrle Gotze Kruse Muller Schweinsteiger I love these. Hope they are still around when I am in Germany in June, otherwise I will have to Bricklink a set Quote

FluffyBunny77 Posted April 12, 2016 Posted April 12, 2016 I loved watching the little video that was released at 10 AM today! I wrote an article about it. The figures will be for sale in Germany, Austria and Switserland only. http://www.lcc.builders/2016/04/12/minifigures-series-71014-duits-elftal-officiele-aankondiging/ Enjoy! Quote
Yooha Posted April 12, 2016 Posted April 12, 2016 Do I see right that there are figs that have the same haircut? So they are indistinguishable in the blind bag! Quote
raminator Posted April 12, 2016 Posted April 12, 2016 Funny thing is that Max Kruse was suspended from the national team for his "scandalous" private life :P (best role model ever) Quote
parsom Posted April 12, 2016 Posted April 12, 2016 I wonder what was the key for selecting the players? Quote
benjiv1 Posted April 12, 2016 Posted April 12, 2016 Has anyone figured out who is who? I was way off on Muller (expected his hair to be darker). Unfortunately I live in Canada, and it will be very difficult to get my hands on any of these. Quote
BrickBob Studpants Posted April 12, 2016 Posted April 12, 2016 Wait, they're being released in May, along with the Disney series? Or is the latter going to be postponed in Germany, Austria and Switzerland? Either way, my wallet's already plotting my demise Quote
promobricks Posted April 12, 2016 Posted April 12, 2016 The Disney minifigures will be released a couple of weeks later in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. They will hit the stores in mid/end June. Quote
BaneShake Posted April 12, 2016 Posted April 12, 2016 I know nothing about the actual team, but these are fantastic! What are the odds of the faces getting reused in other sets? Quote
KCMatze Posted April 12, 2016 Posted April 12, 2016 Reus has the wrong number OH MY GOD. Hummels is waaaaay too tanned. Doesn't match at all... Ugh. Shame shame. But there are tons of great new faces and hair colours, that's nice! As I am a huge football fan I need to get those. They could have done a better job but these look okay. Quote
