April 9, 20168 yr So he does have the laser but does he have the red button that actives the laser also his right dies it have the communication thing that opens and more importantly the star Command logo
April 9, 20168 yr I'm definitely not bothered by the opaque grainy parts, we've been getting those for a while instead of the shiny (and heavier?) plastic parts. But I don't understand the usage of a black torso for Ursula, either, and I'm worried about Syndrome's hair color, it looks a bit weird. I like the detail put into the characters' faces :)
April 9, 20168 yr Wait a minute... the oversaturated images had a blind bag picture with Donald on it. This new slew of images has Captain Hook on the bag instead. Which one is the correct design?? Oh.... you're right! There are 2 different bags
April 9, 20168 yr It appears Captain Hook is trying to fight his way onto the packaging by taking out Donald... Or is it the other way round? I think a civil war has begun Edited April 9, 20168 yr by Tariq j
April 9, 20168 yr Poor hook, just trying to fit in. Maybe TLG decided he was to scary for children? Or maybe they just thought having him on the bag would decrease sales? lol that's so weird.
April 9, 20168 yr If they thought he was too scary, why'd they make a minifigure for him? It'd be cool if we say both variants in stores.
April 9, 20168 yr Probably differs by region, so North America might get one version while the UK gets another. Don't see any real reason why they would do that though.
April 9, 20168 yr Donald Duck is waaaaay more popular in some parts of the world than others, I wonder if it reflects that?
April 9, 20168 yr I saw in another topic that someone posted the background/wallpaper from the disney figures. Could this person help me out? I can't find it any more and I'm making a review of the figs right now and looking for this to make my top banner. THX
April 10, 20168 yr Author Yep, correct. Donald is much more popular in Europe. Different bags per region.
April 10, 20168 yr You're guys are probably right about the popularity thing But are the Little Green Alien, the Cheshire Cat and Cap Hook more popular than Donald in the US? Really?
April 10, 20168 yr You're guys are probably right about the popularity thing But are the Little Green Alien, the Cheshire Cat and Cap Hook more popular than Donald in the US? Really? I'd say the little green aliens are a bit more iconic here in the US than Chesire or Hook. Isn't Donald Duck not really that popular in the States? But...Carl Barks... I've seen no reason to believe that's true. I used to love Donald when I was little, I'd assume todays kids still like Mickey and friends
April 10, 20168 yr Poor hook, just trying to fit in. Maybe TLG decided he was to scary for children? Or maybe they just thought having him on the bag would decrease sales? lol that's so weird. Maybe it's because it's a terribly designed minifigure?
April 10, 20168 yr Maybe it's because it's a terribly designed minifigure? Then they wouldn't put him on the bag anywhere. The only real problem is his head, and without a nose print (which would also look bad) there's not a lot that could be done better.
April 10, 20168 yr If TLG are using different bag designs depending on region because of variations in the popularity of the characters, I wonder if the distribution per box will vary by region as well. The European box contains 3 Donalds. Perhaps the American box will have fewer making MIP Donalds in the American packaging more valuable than European ones on the secondary market. I wonder if this trend will continue to regular CMF lines with regional packaging and frequencies based on localised market research. Hmmm.... Edited April 10, 20168 yr by AmperZand

I think a civil war has begun Donald was banned in Poland for wearing no pants! Maybe this packaging was made especially for Poland!������ Edited April 10, 20168 yr by Red nightwing
