just2good Posted December 31, 2011 Posted December 31, 2011 LEGO P&F sounds like a great idea! If those come to system, I'll definitely be picking them up for the unique hairpieces! Quote
SoupOrFishOil Posted December 31, 2011 Posted December 31, 2011 Anybody else think that if it does come to system, that at least some of the characters will have those mini-doll figures or something similar. That's the best way I can think of doing Candace because of her neck. Quote

Perry the Platypus Posted January 2, 2012 Posted January 2, 2012 Wow. My dream is finally come true. I am a big fan of Phineas and Ferb, as you can see. I will definitely be picking this game up once it hits stores. Fingers crossed, this leads to a System theme... Quote
lightningtiger Posted January 2, 2012 Posted January 2, 2012 There is talk of a Phineas And Ferb cinema release in 2013....perhaps this will be a cartoon theme for that year ? Quote
Perry the Platypus Posted January 2, 2012 Posted January 2, 2012 There is talk of a Phineas And Ferb cinema release in 2013....perhaps this will be a cartoon theme for that year ? Yes. In July of 2013, to be exact. It seems like a very cool game! I hope it turns into a theme. I want Agent P minifig... Quote
Lordofdragonss Posted January 2, 2012 Posted January 2, 2012 Yes. In July of 2013, to be exact. It seems like a very cool game! I hope it turns into a theme. I want Agent P minifig... Not only you, not only you! Can't wait to see how it turns out, maybe "Build your Inaction Perry game!" Quote
K-Nut Posted January 2, 2012 Posted January 2, 2012 Not only you, not only you! Can't wait to see how it turns out, maybe "Build your Inaction Perry game!" Please! It's "Build your own Perry the Platypus Inaction Figure Game!" Get it right! Quote
Perry the Platypus Posted January 2, 2012 Posted January 2, 2012 Please! It's "Build your own Perry the Platypus Inaction Figure Game!" Get it right! No, it is obviously Skiddley Whiffers! Quote
Flipz Posted January 5, 2012 Posted January 5, 2012 No, it is obviously Skiddley Whiffers! If I do not see someone do a MOC of that episode combining both System and Games in a strange and bizzare fashion, I will be sorely disappointed. Actually, if I don't see P&F make it to System, I'll be sorely disappointed... Quote
Perry the Platypus Posted January 5, 2012 Posted January 5, 2012 I better start building, and making it bizarre! Quote

Blondie-Wan Posted January 9, 2012 Posted January 9, 2012 (edited) Wow, pretty neat about the Phineas & Ferb game! I do think it doesn't necessarily mean we'll get a whole licensed theme full of sets, but I think it's certainly possible, and of course the only other licensed games are also full-blown themes (the two largest licensed themes ever, in fact). They did release Cars in Duplo before System. Yes, I know; that's what I was talking about (in the sense of, "I'd like it more if they did System rather than Duplo, and it'd be better still if they did both, the way they already do Cars and Toy Story"). I probably omitted a few words too many. I for one, don't like Disney having any foothold in Lego besides POTC and Marvel. It's a little late for that, given that TLG started doing Disney sets back in 1999 with Winnie the Pooh and Mickey Mouse the year after, and more recently has done Cars, Toy Story and Prince of Persia all before doing Pirates of the Caribbean or Marvel.

Oky Posted January 15, 2012 Author Posted January 15, 2012 HQ pictures of the Duplo Princess sets have finally surfaced. Check Vidiator's post on Brickset for the hi-res links. Nothing exciting for AFOLs, but just imagine how beautiful these would be as System sets! 6151: Sleeping Beauty's Room 6152: Snow White's Cottage 6153: Cinderella's Carriage 6154: Cinderella's Castle Quote
Aanchir Posted January 15, 2012 Posted January 15, 2012 Thanks for the pics! The somewhat short and chubby designs with Disney-style eyes remind me of the film Lilo & Stitch more than anything else. Sleeping Beauty's Room, Cinderella's Carriage, and Cinderella's Castle are quite overwhelmingly pink compared to the actual movies they are based on, which is a real disappointment, but not really too different from what I'd expect in a girl-oriented line like Disney Princesses. The two Cinderella sets are probably the nicest in terms of architecture, although Snow White's set is the least overtly "girly" and so will probably be the AFOL favorite. I like all the decorated parts in the sets. Don't eat those apples, Snow White! I rarely keep up with Duplo, so can't totally speak to which parts are new, but I can say the parts selection is much more sophisticated than when I played with them. There is a lot more variety in plates, and they appear in more sets. There are lots of rounded parts, one of which I recognize from the similarly girl-oriented Creative Cakes set. Some of the castle elements also are familiar from Duplo's ambitious foray into medieval fantasy in the mid-2000s. At the same time, basic bricks and simple constructions are still the order of the day. It's nice to see that the builds, even for the large Cinderella's Castle set, still seem manageable to young kids. While some might prefer for preschoolers to be challenged, I know that a toy that frustrates them will not give them the same enjoyment as one that they can build, either according to instructions or based on their own imaginations, with relative ease. And the parts, even the larger ones, allow for a certain degree of versatility. While the smaller sets don't have enough parts to make too wide a range of things from one set alone, and their diverse colors would make meaningfully color-coordinated play a challenge, they compensate for this with relatively small and simple bricks that can be arranged and rearranged in at least a few different ways.

SilvaShado Posted January 16, 2012 Posted January 16, 2012 Thanks for the high res photos. Still disappointed in how these turned out, but they are Duplo. I can only hope that this will be moved to System next year like they did with Cars. I just hope they do normal minifigures, not the Friends mini-dolls. This would be a huge opportunity lost for more female minifigures, especially since my husband and I do a lot of castle MOCs - princesses would be so very cool! Quote
Perry the Platypus Posted January 22, 2012 Posted January 22, 2012 I wonder why we haven't seen pictures of the Phineas and Ferb game... I will be sorely disappointed if this is fake. Quote
SilvaShado Posted January 22, 2012 Posted January 22, 2012 I wonder why we haven't seen pictures of the Phineas and Ferb game... I will be sorely disappointed if this is fake. Me too. In fact, I only started watching Phineas and Ferb because of this rumor. I heard about it here and then talked to some friends who encouraged me to try the show. Thankfully, 78 episodes are on Netflix instant streaming. My husband and I are hooked on it, watching it almost every day. We're into season 2 now. Quote

It is good to watch a few episodes before seeing the movie. It is an amazing cartoon. Quote

It is good to watch a few episodes before seeing the movie. It is an amazing cartoon. The movie is also on Netflix, but we're probably going to wait until we watch all the episodes before watching the movie. The show amazes me every time. The writers are ingenious, slightly tweaking the formula every episode. It never feels tired or repetitive, even though they are almost doing the same thing every episodes. It's great! Quote
Clone OPatra Posted January 22, 2012 Posted January 22, 2012 What does this have to do with LEGO Disney 2012? I can't see any connection. There is a Culture & Multimedia forum for discussing TV shows. I don't think that this news was fake. It was listed on an actual toy website that listed a lot of other things we know about as well. I'm not surprised by no pictures yet either. We haven't even seen pictures of the Marvel sets that are only two months away! Quote
K-Nut Posted January 22, 2012 Posted January 22, 2012 The new Cars sets were at both my Target and TRU today. I didn't pick them up, since TRU had the new Star Wars stuff. Quote
