Yooha Posted December 23, 2020 Posted December 23, 2020 Thanks for this advent calendar and all the minifigs you designed so far. I wish those ideas would be used by TLG. Looking forward the series to come. Quote
Karalora Posted December 23, 2020 Posted December 23, 2020 6 hours ago, makoy said: For the record, I have to say that TLG needs to make more angels than demons. Seriously. The company has created more minifigures with horns and tails than halo and/or wings. That's probably because horned, tailed figures are easier to pass off as simple monsters, i.e. nothing to do with religion, while a humanlike figure with feathered wings automatically makes most people think of angels. Personally I think TLG is a little too gun-shy regarding religious imagery. Angels and demons, as a concept, are thoroughly assimilated into general pop culture and fantasy, and as such depicting them is not necessarily a religious statement at all. But then again, you never know how many worms are in the can until you open it. Congrats on another great milestone @Robert8, and on finding a possible loophole to the general prohibition on religious characters! Not to mention the sheer loveliness of this design! Quote
ToaIruini Posted December 23, 2020 Posted December 23, 2020 Wow, this minifigure is very well made! The pale gold color (not sure the name) works great. Congrats on 400 minifigures!! Your work is so consistently amazing. Quote
Lion King Posted December 23, 2020 Posted December 23, 2020 (edited) Angelic Tree Topper is beautiful!! I wish TLG gonna make that one so I can build my Christmas tree and put that angel on the top of it! Congrats on your great milestone!! 400 minifigures, wow! That’s so amazing!! I enjoy seeing your designs! Edited December 23, 2020 by DBlegonerd7 Quote

williejm Posted December 24, 2020 Posted December 24, 2020 Stunning series. Well done! I especially love the generosity of accessories and animals. Stand out figures for me would be : snowflake costume, evil snowman, ice sculpture & Grinch. Quote
Aurore Posted December 24, 2020 Posted December 24, 2020 Thank you very much for this wonderful calendar! Merry holidays, everyone! Quote
Kai NRG Posted December 24, 2020 Posted December 24, 2020 Great job on this series, it's been a pleasure to see it come together! Quote
Lion King Posted December 24, 2020 Posted December 24, 2020 Santa in workshop attire looks so cool! TLG should include that figure in Winter Village in first place. Reindeer mold is an excellent touch! Thank you for a jolly advent calendar series 2! Merry Christmas, everyone! Quote

Which makes me suspect that it's not a reindeer calf, but a tiny reindeer. Taken verbatim from the poem. Thank you so much for this @Robert8 ! Merry Christmas everyone!

ToaIruini Posted December 24, 2020 Posted December 24, 2020 Merry Christmas @Robert8!!! I always look forward to seeing these ideas and art pop up here every day. Thank you for bringing so much joy to us during this time! My favorites are the Evil Snowman, Tree Topper, Baker, and the Nutcracker collection. Your work is always so amazing, that I would force myself to find a reason to buy all of them however! Quote
Inspecter Posted December 24, 2020 Posted December 24, 2020 Great series, can't wait for the next one and Merry Christmas. If you do another Christmas series hopefully Ruprecht will be there. Quote

I had planned to reuse the fawn from Series R but without the antlers looked kind of stupid haha like a fawn with a clown nose. It really needed the antlers to complete the Rudolph look. Lets just say its some north pole magic.... Quote
DarrellBricker Posted December 25, 2020 Posted December 25, 2020 Well done, as usual Robert. A delightful character every day! And congratulations on 400 minifigures as well, what an achievement! I am grateful for your hard work, your creativity and your obvious passion, it is truly a pleasure to tune in and see what surprises you have in store for us. I look forward to seeing what you have in store for us in the future. Merry Christmas one and all! Quote

Unlike most deer species the reindeer calf get antlers the first year (both males and females have it as well) however it is usually only two long spikes Quote
