Might luck up and find it for <$15USD on Bricklink, much like the zombie sharks when they came out. Quote
Lucarex Posted April 23, 2020 Posted April 23, 2020 Yep, the zombie shark was easily available for the €10-15 mark, not bad considering it was a unique (and very cool) animal mould from a €200 set. Quote
BrickBob Studpants Posted April 24, 2020 Posted April 24, 2020 One of the Monkie Kid sets includes a light blue version of last year‘s Mohawk-cat from TLM2 Quote

Yes and unwanted from my side Quote
williejm Posted April 24, 2020 Posted April 24, 2020 Haha saw that cat and knew @roebuck would be livid! I didn’t think that mould would get a revisit either! Lots of crabs getting a look in in 2020 sets it seems Quote

Animals like the crab are much more common than e.g the lobster. The old rat was in a lot of sets, the new one with eye-print is rare. If that is right then the animals without print should cost the same as any other brick in the same size. Then it is strange that as far as I can see there are not a single normal fish in the deep sea sets Quote

No *normal* fish? The hammerhead, great white, stingray and anglerfish would like to have a word with you about what is ‘normal’ ... Quote

Hehe, sorry was not very clear, what I meant was the standard small Lego fish Why did they not include a shoal of those @cebelicamya can not remember seeing one Quote

Lucarex Posted April 25, 2020 Posted April 25, 2020 @Roebuck where’s that azure fish from? The only blue one I’ve seen/have (not the orange and black) is the light blue one that came in TLNM CMFs most recently. Quote

williejm Posted April 25, 2020 Posted April 25, 2020 Am I right in thinking the ‘normal’ fish has now been produced in nine colours? Pearl grey; flat silver; Sand green; orange; black; light blue; azure; and spring green? Quote
Roebuck Posted April 25, 2020 Author Posted April 25, 2020 @cebelicamya For some reason I can not quote your post No, that fish and of course other fish like sharks.. No, not a new colour.. 1 hour ago, gedren_y said: That's because they're all going to be in Monkie Kid. One set has 5 or 6.

K_Tiger Posted April 26, 2020 Posted April 26, 2020 (edited) It looks like the Chihuahua mold is back in one of the Hidden Side sets. Pic quality is bad, but it looks like it's in reddish brown. Edited April 26, 2020 by K_Tiger Quote

Not that it is much use to me with that crazy head-print There is a fish in an unusual colour in a ninjago set, but I think it is the same as in the DC CMF Quote
K_Tiger Posted April 27, 2020 Posted April 27, 2020 (edited) The rendered shark *looks* sand blue, but I'm not certain of it. Yeah, the conjunctivitis around the eye printing is a let-down, especially after they went and gave us a tan crocodillian. The whole wave looks phoned-in. Edited April 27, 2020 by K_Tiger Quote

Makes me think...if you could attach a hook to it, the Lego fish in some of the brighter colors might actually make an effective lure. Has anyone ever tried it? Quote
samurai-turtle Posted April 28, 2020 Posted April 28, 2020 It looks like Harry Potter is getting a transparent glittering otter and hair animals. Like the patronus stag from last year's set. Quote
