BrickBob Studpants Posted January 31, 2016 Posted January 31, 2016 Cruella De Vil would be great! Especially with that new piece that Kraven the Hunter has in one of the Marvel sets. You're right, that piece would indeed be perfect... Usually, new CMF parts are hints for future minifigs in other themes (Wacky Witch's hat -> Scarecrow, Series 13 Goblin's cap -> Green Goblin, Forest Maiden's hairpiece -> Endor Leia etc.), but this time, it may be the other way around Quote
BrickFit26 Posted February 1, 2016 Posted February 1, 2016 (edited) Yes for the Cruella De Vil idea. I hope they make her. Edited February 1, 2016 by BrickFit26 Quote
MysteriousSir Posted February 1, 2016 Posted February 1, 2016 I made a Cruella quite some years back, although the picture's not on this computer. Took the green cabbage hair from Exo-Force and painted it half-black, half-white, which was more styled after her book hair, and sawed off a police dog's ears (I had a bunch from pick-a-brick) and painted it appropriately. I made Horace and Jasper too, and I remember doing Roger with the beret from the Artist CMF. Don't recall doing Anita. Quote

rob-ot5000 Posted February 2, 2016 Posted February 2, 2016 ...and sawed off a police dog's ears... You're a terrible, terrible man. No, but seriously, welcome! There's a customization thread around here somewhere, which sounds like it would be right up your alley. I have no idea where, since I can't bring myself to do that. I bent a few 5x6 leaf pieces one time and felt bad enough about that Quote

Thanks for the advice! Sounds pretty cool. Thanks! Quote
8BrickMario Posted February 3, 2016 Posted February 3, 2016 Cruella would be a really neat figure to have, and would be great to pair with Two-Face! Quote
BrickFit26 Posted February 4, 2016 Posted February 4, 2016 What could Cruella's accessory be? A dalmatian puppy? Quote
CM4Sci Posted February 4, 2016 Posted February 4, 2016 Hey, if we get her then that means another new hairpiece! I love new hairpieces. Quote
sunhuntin Posted February 4, 2016 Posted February 4, 2016 What could Cruella's accessory be? A dalmatian puppy? her cigarette and holder ;) j/k, a puppy could be ideal. how theyd do it, i dont know. maybe the standard dalmatian dog mould, but i would want one that says "disney character" in looks. Quote
JaseTJ Posted February 4, 2016 Posted February 4, 2016 Would the chiuaua piece look good with the right color/print? I'm not looking at it at the moment, but it came to mind for the puppies, rather than the parent Dalmatians. (I haven't seen it in a long time :P) Quote
Ultron Posted February 4, 2016 Posted February 4, 2016 I feel like including a puppy with Cruella would be a little...much. Quote
Actor Builder Posted February 4, 2016 Posted February 4, 2016 I feel like including a puppy with Cruella would be a little...much. It'd be better than including a puppy-fur coat piece. Quote
Robert8 Posted February 4, 2016 Posted February 4, 2016 Usually, new CMF parts are hints for future minifigs in other themes (Wacky Witch's hat -> Scarecrow, Series 13 Goblin's cap -> Green Goblin, Forest Maiden's hairpiece -> Endor Leia etc.), And the Banshee Hairpiece -> that girl in the Ghostbusters set and the Zombie Cheerleader hairpiece -> Harley Quinn, etc......) Maybe they are going to reuse the Faun legs for Philoctetes. Actually, I'd be surprised if that doesn't happen because that's the only way to reuse the Faun legs. Quote

Actually, I'd be surprised if that doesn't happen because that's the only way to reuse the Faun legs. It is, now that we know Beast will not be in this series. It would obviously work for this character, though. Quote

It'd work for Beast but I don't think he's in this series. Quote
strangely Posted February 4, 2016 Posted February 4, 2016 The legs could also work for Mr. Tumnus. However I don't know what Disney's current rights to the Narnia movies are. So I doubt he would make an appearance, if for any reason that the franchise has been dead for quite some time (Plus the last one didn't even have Disney's involvement). Quote

So I doubt he would make an appearance, if for any reason that the franchise has been dead for quite some time (Plus the last one didn't even have Disney's involvement). The one in series 15 is basically already Mr Tumnus by design. I think it was a bit intentional like the old Genie in the series where they used a popular character as a benchmark. Quote

I think it was a bit intentional like the old Genie in the series where they used a popular character as a benchmark. To be fair, Tumnus is a fairly ordinary-looking faun, so I doubt there's any connection besides the character's popularity. At any rate, the S15 character and the lesser-known character probably exclude him from this series. Quote

I think they would have to go for a new mold. im not overly familiar with the friends mold, but there may be one there that could work if decorated right? it cant just be a spotted puppy though, it has to recognisable as one of theirs. maybe patch, as he would be the most distinctive spots-wise. other puppies have names, but patch and roly would be the only two i could pick out a line up.

I just looked it up. And that puppy from LEGO friends has it ears down. It would work if they didn't want to make a new mold, but the dalmatian puppy would have to be decorated right. Quote
Robert8 Posted February 6, 2016 Posted February 6, 2016 (edited) I think they're too tall All the licensed minifigures are unproportioned compared to the character they are based on Ursula will be unproportioned as well. I don't need to see her to know it Edited February 6, 2016 by Robert8 Quote
LEGODalekbuster523 Posted February 6, 2016 Posted February 6, 2016 I love how we know more about the 2016 Ghostbusters Reboot Ecto-1 set that comes out in July than this May 2016 CMF. Quote
