Hoth Rebel Posted January 11, 2018 Posted January 11, 2018 But then it would be a collectible minidolls series. Anyway I think the suit guys are one of the best/fun figures Lego makes so I would rather have every set like this. But I get why people want more diversity in a CMF ‘set’. Quote

If list said for example, 17 mini dolls, I wouldn't bother buying them as I don't like them. No matther how the final result would be. Discrimination of minidolls is LEGO racism. Quote

In my Lego City (which my wife allows me to place in about 33% of our living room) my MiniFigures and MiniDolls cohabitate. Only Jack Stone-style figures are exiled/ostracized.... --Mr Bill Quote
8BrickMario Posted January 12, 2018 Posted January 12, 2018 (edited) For me, I'm always imagining what the figures are going to look like, but I don't think I've ever ruled one out on description alone, because it is so often the case that a minifigure will turn out to have a really great new mold or useful pieces even if I don't love the design, and I'll get it for that. It's when I see the product that I pass judgement, and in those cases, the only figures I don't like are the ones that don't have any redeeming pieces in addition to unappealing designs. I, for one, have high hopes for the Unicorn Knight's ridiculous concept, but I am worried about the execution. The clown is one I'm looking forward to, and in most cases, my anticipations are exceeded. Edited January 12, 2018 by 8BrickMario Quote

x105Black Posted January 12, 2018 Posted January 12, 2018 In my opinion, the Unicorn Knight sounds like a silly idea, but if I really like the shield design, I may end up with a few anyways... Quote
1Panda Posted January 12, 2018 Posted January 12, 2018 I’m surprised they chose to recolor the unicorn molds and not the pandas. Quote

I'd expect someone with Panda in their username to say that! But I agree. The panda makes sense as a recolor option much more intuitively than the unicorn. Quote

Like I’ve said before there are a lot more possibilities for recoloring the panda mask such as ... polar bear, grizzly bear, black bear and teddy bear. Also does anyone know if the spider accessory in this series is black? Quote

Well unicorns come in all colours , don’t they? I think there must be some Bronies working at Lego giving eachother brohoofs when their Unicorn Knight got picked out for this cmf wave :-) Quote

Quite often I will pass judgement when the first photos appear, and then WhiteFang's review goes up and i change my mind and end up buying almost the entire wave, even if just for parts. I would love if the Minifig Collector fig came with a microfig based on someone from wave 1. Quote
Robert8 Posted January 12, 2018 Author Posted January 12, 2018 According to the video, Unicorn Knight is a girl Quote

I have some Chima wings, but need the right color bracket neckwear. I have a trans-pink magic wand, though. Quote

Also does anyone know if the spider accessory in this series is black? We don't know. The Spider Suit was described as being all-black, but the color on the back piece wasn't mentioned. It was described as all-new, and it doesn't sound like it's the piece coming in the Infinity War sets. EDIT: Actually, Brick Show described it as being a good piece for Venom, so I guess we can assume it is indeed black. Edited January 12, 2018 by K_Tiger Quote

I think it will just be that piece. I had hoped that the cmf spider would have been brown instead of black though. Brown is imho a better colour for spiders. Plus the human fly is also black and a brown spider would look great with him. Quote

K_Tiger Posted January 13, 2018 Posted January 13, 2018 That thought had occurred to me. Guess we'll just have to wait until some intrepid soul leaks the pics. Quote

Ok, but I was talking about the actual spider companion for this figure which I assume is the new mold from the jungle theme. If it’s included at all. Quote

Let’s hope it will be solved by changing headpieces then. I just noticed there are already 5 females: Cactus, Balloon girl, Elephant, Brick costume and Flower So, the Unicorn has to be a guy. Unless, the brick costume is considered like an "extra character" and there will be 6 females in this series. Quote
Borex Posted January 15, 2018 Posted January 15, 2018 I hope we find out soon enough with some pictures. As of now a lot of them sound interesting, but the pics can make them or break them. Quote
