Loving the way that the new Elrond and Gandalf can ‘sit down’ in the new Rivendell set, gives me a nice idea on how a Cinderella minifigure could sit in the carriage on the way to the ball 😁 I’ll be shocked if we end up finally getting minifigure princesses and Cinderella isn’t one of them. She’s gotta pop up in one of the sets this year.

spiderfan2000 Posted February 8, 2023 Posted February 8, 2023 (edited) Huh, so it seems I was right in guessing that we are getting a Nightmare Before Christmas set, but it's through LEGO Ideas, which I was not expecting. Edited February 8, 2023 by spiderfan2000
THELEGOBATMAN Posted February 12, 2023 Posted February 12, 2023 Peter Pan and Wendy's Storybook Adventure set leaked, and yeah, nothing exciting. Just more mini-mini-dolls.
Jarreth2 Posted February 12, 2023 Posted February 12, 2023 Yeah I know it will appeal to some, but one I can cross off my list. This isn’t classic Disney to me. 🤷🏻♂️
BacktoBricks Posted February 12, 2023 Posted February 12, 2023 (edited) Well that's disappointing. :( Does that mean the Disney train will have minidolls then I wonder. I know the books are normally minidolls so it might be the exception in the list and the rumour said minifigures for the train, but as it's at a relatively cheap price point and a 4+ set I have to wonder now. Hopefully it will be more like the Mickey 4+ sets, but with good looking minifigures. Edited February 12, 2023 by BacktoBricks
Khargeust Posted February 12, 2023 Posted February 12, 2023 What is about the White Snow Cottage ? Is it planned for this summer ?
BacktoBricks Posted February 12, 2023 Posted February 12, 2023 Interesting that the book wasn't officially revealed but seems to have been put out on a store shelf early yet again. Don't know why Lego's holding out on revealing it. 😆

BrickBob Studpants Posted February 12, 2023 Posted February 12, 2023 Is this the first minidoll set based on a live-action property? Probably the only noteworthy aspect here
Huigberts Builds Posted February 12, 2023 Author Posted February 12, 2023 Who's that dog? What happened to good old Nana? Also is that supposed to be Hook? He looks like such a generic pirate.

In these very trying times, these are my main sources of anxiety: - rising price of goods; - social instability, and prospect of war from certain parts of the world; - natural calamity, including global warming; and... - Lego making most-wanted Disney mini figures into mini-dolls with no prospect of a minifigure version.
JeanGreyForever Posted February 12, 2023 Posted February 12, 2023 It looks awful. I really wanted a Wendy minifigure to go with the other Pan minifigures, not to mention Alice and Dorothy.

Especially for these kinds of sets that likely won't generate any kind of meaningful buzz in the press. It's only a huge anticlimax to us, who have been following every leak and rumour for months, which is a pretty small proportion of the buyers of these sets.

Yeah that's what I meant by reveal, just officially put the product out there with a product page on their website. But they have a habit of leaving it so close with some sets that they get 'revealed' or 'leaked' elsewhere and it just makes them look a bit incompetent. Maybe Disney has a say in this one, not that the product reveals anything of the new film. Either way, definitely an anti-climax this one. Even the minidolls look off to me. :(

Even the minidolls look off to me. :( True, but they do it all the time. It's either, as you say, that they're a bit incompetent, or, and I suspect that this is the case for most things, they don't care. They're not intending to reveal it 'officially'. It's just a thing that happens, and if a retail partner puts something out early and there isn't a planned launch of it, then they probably don't care. At this point, it's a few days, maybe weeks ahead of it releasing everywhere, so none of the competitor clones or sensitive movie plot points matter. Unlike the recent batch of leaks where we're now seeing pretty much every one of those big concepts being cloned with (pretty terrible) versions popping up all over the place. That will annoy them a lot. As you say, anti-climax on this. But hopefully some of the others deliver on the promise that the big batch of leaks last week promised!
Volt01 Posted February 13, 2023 Posted February 13, 2023 i wish lego would do my favorite Disney series LEGO YOU HAVE DISNEY YOU HAVE VOLKSWAGEN MAKE LEGO HERBIE HAPPEN
Agent Kallus Posted February 13, 2023 Posted February 13, 2023 I didn't even realise Herby was Disney whoops.
doclord Posted February 13, 2023 Posted February 13, 2023 (edited) Mickey in a silver jacket has leaked, likely to come in the Birthday Train set as was "predicted" here before. The same user "predicted" Belle and Gaston are getting figures this year. Edited February 13, 2023 by doclord
Huigberts Builds Posted February 13, 2023 Author Posted February 13, 2023 Mickey from what I assume is the train set leaked. A bit bland imo, but it's alright I suppose.
JeanGreyForever Posted February 13, 2023 Posted February 13, 2023 Very boring. I was expecting more silver than dark gray. If this minifigure is an indicator of the rest of the set, it'll be an easy pass.

It was the first film completed since Disney passed away, actually. It was one of the last ones he green-lit before dying. 3 hours ago, Volt01 said: i wish lego would do my favorite Disney series LEGO YOU HAVE DISNEY YOU HAVE VOLKSWAGEN MAKE LEGO HERBIE HAPPEN Herbie has to happen eventually, but the last three films (Herbie goes to Monte Carlo, Herbie goes Bananas, and ESPECIALLY Herbie Fully Loaded) were bigger and bigger duds. Sure he's iconic, but if anything, we'll get him as a CREATOR large scale car. Minifigure scale Beetles are almost impossible to do. BUT: If they do a fig-scale car, it had better be able to split in half! (You can't beat the iconic "53 comes in first... and third!") Edited February 13, 2023 by Murdoch17
