LEGO Collectable Minifigures Series 16 Rumors and Discussion

[x105Black]

Yeah...I just watched Batman Forever, and I no longer have any qualms about amassing a Penguin Army.

Penguins all the way.

I feel for you.

I am definitely getting at least one penguin suit and one photographer with penguin. I hope the photographer has decent prints to make it more worthwhile. I got the pig and skunk in the last seeies, but didn't care for the related figures.

Well, considering the Wildlife Photographer is said to have a parka hood, maybe she'll have a generic jacket print (with female curves of course) And a goggled face? Maybe her legs will be two-toned, with boot prints on the toe like the Snowboarder?

On that note, are there any ideas of what color scheme she will have? Are we thinking the Orange and Blue like the Arctic sets from a while back, or will she be a peculiar color (Medium Azure comes to mind??)

I hope that we get a different color scheme just to have some more variety with colors.

[telaruhn]

I'd like a different color scheme as well, but I'm not sure how 'different' it will be. For some reason, I could see her wearing mainly orange with maybe some black. Bright colors are needed to stand out from the snow and ice... I would say red, but the Imp is also red (though thats not really here nor there). I don't expect a crazy color like Pink or Lavender.

[sunhuntin]

i wouldnt mind a different color, either. already have enough blue and orange, lol. maybe a bright green?

[BrickFit26]

I hope we'll see some pics by the end of this month, like Series 12 in that catalog

I would LOVE a nice slow reveal like that.

[pittpenguin123]

Purple and red seem to be common colors of those big poofy coats they wear.

[Robert8]

I expect something like this

And I really hope the new penguin mold will be better proportioned than the skunk in Series 15, which was awfully oversized

Not compared to the rat mould. The skunk was fine. I'm just hoping the penguin is generic enough, I don't want it printed to identifiable species level...

[notpennysboat]

Beside snakes and maybe monkeys, a lot of animals are over/undersized : cats, horses, sharks, crocodiles, scorpions, I don't think it's a problem, I'm sure LEGO studies a lot of possibilities. I'm really ok about the skunk, he's fine and adorable :) The penguin should be smaller than the friends one (like the monkey quite similar)

[BrickFit26]

Have proportional accessories and animals is tough. I like them either way.

[sunhuntin]

the only thing with the skunk is i wish the tail had been up. still love it though. im looking forward to creating a small flock of penguins. finally, something for my polar bear to chase.

If they can fit a horse into a blind bag, then there should be no problem creating a 'Centaur' (my most wanted mythology creature), in future collectible minifigure series. One can only hope and dream..

And now I want to try fitting a horse into a blind bag whenever I get home.

[Amazing Bricks]

Or they could easily make a new mold that's a bit smaller than the normal horse. It'd be like Ursula's new piece from the Disney series, except molded into a half horse and easily fit a torso on.

So if anybody has one of those rare Bellville (I think) ponies that are about 2/3 the size of a horse, you could try and fit that into a Minifigure bag.

Or just try a Brickforge centar body which would probably be the most accurate way. Though I really don't see it happening, that would be a huge mold piece to sell for only $4 with everything else the bags include.

[Actor Builder]

Amendment: Ignore me. I was off-topic and talking about the price. Both are annoying habits and I have moderated myself.

Move along.

Just tried it, and it will fit with a minifig torso and head with no (or little) problem.

Not to be "that guy" but penguins are actually on a completely different pole than polar bears. Polar bears are found in the Northern Pole and Penguins in the Southern Pole.

Thanks. I was having to sit on my hands! Though, fact fans, most penguin species don't actually live on Antarctica itself - and some are technically tropical. Handy to know for MOCs maybe ;)

[Ed3n]

Thanks K_Tiger for that info! We've got a minotaur, medusa, satyr.. a centaur will make it complete.

[CM4Sci]

Tried it for myself, too - surprisingly it's small compared to the bag, and it fits perfectly. I really hope that they make one soon - just feel for the flat bag !

It's my dream too. LEGO can definitely make it happen.

If TLG can put a pig inside a blind bag, with a little more effort a horse is not far from reality. Hope that TLG accepts the challenge.
