Whatever it may be, I somewhat wonder if that CMF is designed in mind for the new bag size introduced for TLM2 CMS, given how "BIG" it seemingly looks. Quote

While I haven't any specific idea for that first hint, the latter two are most definitely Edgar Allen Poe and a "Nessie" Costume Guy! Looking at the teaser now, I'm guessing that "circus character" @Robert8 mentioned might be the one in the upper left-hand corner. Quote
Robert8 Posted March 29, 2019 Author Posted March 29, 2019 (edited) Reading your guesses is actually pretty funny. That minifigure was made last summer so I didnt know about the new bag size, which appeared this year. But yeah that new bag size would be very useful for bigger minifigures like the Series N Flying Man Edited March 30, 2019 by Robert8 Quote

Digger of Bricks Posted April 1, 2019 Posted April 1, 2019 Okaaaaay, that Valkyrie at the end just blew me away... DAMN Robert, yet another brilliant Series from you all in all, with so freaking many groundbreakers!!! Special mention should go to the gorgeously-designed Circus Acrobat, the lovely Southern Belle, that jaw-dropping Valkyrie, and that seriously excellent ADVENTURER!!! I mean, he's absolutely perfect!!! Quote
Nerd-with-a-Pencil Posted April 1, 2019 Posted April 1, 2019 Another excellent series! The Valkyrie and Circus Acrobat are beautifully designed, and I'm a sucker for holiday archetypes and monsters, so the Snowman and ghoul are among my faves. The Loch Monster Guy has a perfect expression for his alternate face, and I love the reference to the Supervillain (and perhaps a hint at an upcoming hero CMF?) in the Delivery Guy's accessories.

Robert8 Posted April 1, 2019 Author Posted April 1, 2019 Thanks @Digger of Bricks Now you know what was that in the upper right-hand corner: It was the Valkyrie @Nerd-with-a-Pencil The Supervillain and Super Kid are indeed in those printed tiles. But with short legs it looked kind of weird, so I made him with regular legs. Quote
Digger of Bricks Posted April 1, 2019 Posted April 1, 2019 By the way @Robert8, I noticed you haven't published public Flickr images for this Series yet. Is it already due to Flickr's 1000 free photo limit? 13 hours ago, Robert8 said: 2. Robot Boy Part assortment (8 pieces): New robot mask. Candy cane introduced with the Series M Mrs. Santa.

Eggyslav Posted April 1, 2019 Posted April 1, 2019 Do I hear Wagner? Because that Valkyrie is EPIC!!! Quote
Digger of Bricks Posted April 1, 2019 Posted April 1, 2019 BTW, for as much as I enthusiastically L-O-V-E your Adventurer design, one very tiny complaint I have about it is the color of his kerchief. Given how much brown he already has as a part of his color scheme, a contrasting color such as Olive Green or Dark Red for it instead could've helped. Quote

DarrellBricker Posted April 2, 2019 Posted April 2, 2019 Stellar series, Robert, simply stellar! I especially love the Adventurer, the Robot Kid, the Writer, the Clown Girl, the Circus Acrobat, and OMG THAT VALKYRIE!!! Those are how Lego wings SHOULD be designed! Amazing work, as always. Quote

Im nowhere near the 1000 photos yet, but once I reach that amount, I'll just create another one. Like Robert8 2.0 or something - I dont follow LEGO's color palette because Im too lazy for that. That takes some extra time and it doesnt worth it. If these become real, they would need to be "translated" into LEGO's color palette. - Superheroine yes. But Superhero hmmm I dont know.

Karalora Posted April 3, 2019 Posted April 3, 2019 I'm sure I've said this before, @Robert8, but I wish you were in charge of the actual collectible minis.* The only one of these I don't think I'd be excited to get is the Tae Kwon Do fighter, and even then, her trophy has a really cool design. The tan skull for the expy of Poe is so obvious that it makes me wonder why TLG hasn't done it already to represent a weathered old skull. The Acrobat's hairpiece is superb, and overall there are just so many different takes on cultural, historical, mythological, and holiday-related characters that I'm giddy with delight! * Although maybe in that alternate universe, someone else would be doing this and coming up with the designs we actually have in this universe, and we'd be just as thrilled and wistful...anyway...

Digger of Bricks Posted April 3, 2019 Posted April 3, 2019 I must say, the turnout and response from EB for this Series seems a bit more underwhelming than it has with previous Series. Quote
