Hero Bricks Posted April 6, 2016 Posted April 6, 2016 When should we expect a review on this series? Quote
Jarreth Posted April 6, 2016 Posted April 6, 2016 I found a picture of the figures of Ariel and Ursula .. not sure how to post it here .. but Ursula's tentacles appear rather strange there are 'holes' in the plastic .. they don't seem to be separate tentacles as such ?? On another note the hair pieces aren't aligned correctly and it's a shame !! I'll try it this way .. if this link isn't allowed or doesn't work I'll take it down ( apologies in advance ) https://www.google.co.uk/imgres?imgurl=https%3A%2F%2Fimg.buzzfeed.com%2Fbuzzfeed-static%2Fstatic%2F2016-03%2F29%2F18%2Fenhanced%2Fwebdr06%2Fenhanced-7205-1459290164-1.png&imgrefurl=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.buzzfeed.com%2Fsamstryker%2Fdisney-lego-figures%3Futm_term%3D4ldqpia&docid=RqHBPZUY44nwDM&tbnid=_HDNb5XgTUTouM%3A&w=625&h=336&hl=en-gb&client=safari&ved=0ahUKEwi__-fgmPvLAhUEIg8KHS_LD2w4ZBAzCAcoBDAE&iact=mrc&uact=8 Quote
Robert8 Posted April 6, 2016 Posted April 6, 2016 (edited) Here they are: Yes, the tentacles piece has holes And Ursula's chest looks awful. LEGO needs to do something about the printing, because that's a recurrent issue in the CMF line (S2 Lifeguard, S12 Swashbuckler, ...) Edited April 7, 2016 by Robert8 Quote
Ultron Posted April 7, 2016 Posted April 7, 2016 Aw, that's a little disappointing. Still a great fig though. Quote
deskp Posted April 7, 2016 Posted April 7, 2016 Well that's just the negative space between the tentacles. Quote
Darkdragon Posted April 7, 2016 Posted April 7, 2016 On another note the hair pieces aren't aligned correctly and it's a shame !! Well that's not a problem with the figure, that's a problem with the person who built it for the photos. Quote
just2good Posted April 7, 2016 Author Posted April 7, 2016 FUDGE, looks like Buzz doesn't have the laser printing on his arm... Hope TS4 sets have that. Maybe they'll have super-advanced printing by 2018... Quote

LEGO needs to do something about the printing, because that's a recurrent issue in the CMF line (S2 Lifeguard, S12 Swashbuckler, ...) Oh wow. Ursula looks a lot worse in that picture. Ecpesially now that I see those holes. Also I didn't expect separate tentacles but I expected the mold to have them look separate. Not just flat. I will probably still get it but I'm more disappointed now. Edited April 7, 2016 by Captain Nemo Please Don't Quote Pictures Quote
Actor Builder Posted April 7, 2016 Posted April 7, 2016 I'm pretty sure that's just a doofy picture with odd shadowing. The "holes" are just weirdly reflected edges of the second tentacles back. I think. Quote
Robert8 Posted April 7, 2016 Posted April 7, 2016 (edited) Oh wow. Ursula looks a lot worse in that picture. Ironically, Ariel looks a lot better in the picture That hairpiece is everything Edited April 7, 2016 by Robert8 Quote

strangely Posted April 7, 2016 Posted April 7, 2016 I'm pretty sure that's just a doofy picture with odd shadowing. The "holes" are just weirdly reflected edges of the second tentacles back. I think. No, they are holes. There in almost every picture we've seen, other than the very first one. They are kind of odd looking, perhaps the sculpt could have incorporated them more naturally. I'm not too bothered overall. Quote
rodiziorobs Posted April 7, 2016 Posted April 7, 2016 Hmmm, it does look a little odd. I'll still try and pick one up, though. On the plus side, I'm sure it will find its way into a lot more creative NPU situations in MOCs if those holes are anti-studs or technic-sized. I know I'm intrigued by the possibilities. Quote
pittpenguin123 Posted April 7, 2016 Posted April 7, 2016 FUDGE, looks like Buzz doesn't have the laser printing on his arm... Hope TS4 sets have that. Maybe they'll have super-advanced printing by 2018... Guess we will never get a nice buzz with a lazer. Quote
Tech Artist Posted April 7, 2016 Posted April 7, 2016 (edited) Guess we will never get a nice buzz with a lazer. You could strap a laser to his arm. Lol. Ironically, Ariel looks a lot better in the picture That hairpiece is everything Surprisingly she does. Not fat, more balanced, and that hairpiece is just stunning. I may have to get her too. Edited April 7, 2016 by Tech Artist Quote
BrickOn Posted April 7, 2016 Posted April 7, 2016 Her hairpiece is the best, I am happy I was right that Lego could do a better job with that :-) I am very happy with those two :-) Quote

LEGODalekbuster523 Posted April 7, 2016 Posted April 7, 2016 (edited) They should make it an actual button you press to reveal a red light for the laser. Edited April 7, 2016 by LEGODalekbuster523 Quote
Robert8 Posted April 7, 2016 Posted April 7, 2016 (edited) He does. Your new photo with a different position doesn't seem to show it. Yes, it's there. It's even mentioned on his own "thoughts" video at 4:45 Edited April 7, 2016 by Robert8 Quote
Brickity Posted April 7, 2016 Posted April 7, 2016 (edited) Am I the only who isn't bothered with how Ursula looks in that pic? Lol. I actually think her face looks a lot better now, it's so accurate. Just like the drag queen she is. I am only bothered with how they didn't use a purple torso for her. PD I like that Buzz a lot more than the molded one :D Edited April 7, 2016 by Otherworld Quote
just2good Posted April 7, 2016 Author Posted April 7, 2016 Oh yeah, you guys are right! I thought the position of the photo cancelled my thoughts, but I'm glad to see it there. Quote
8BrickMario Posted April 7, 2016 Posted April 7, 2016 At first I thought the laser was on the wrong side, but then I remembered that the communicator is on his left. Heresy. Ursula still looks fantastic to me. I don't love the purple, but it doesn't ruin the figure for me. Her tentacles, though, are a shame. They're not an elegant shape for baseplates, so I guess it's the best they could do, but the holes are unsightly. Quote

deskp Posted April 8, 2016 Posted April 8, 2016 I am really into the use of the lego minifig heads instead of molded heads, molded head buzz is weird as a lego figure, will be great when we get woody with normal head as well! But lego has to STOP PRINTING INDIVIDUAL TEETH! it looks horrible on Hook and Syndrome. Knock off appearance. Quote
