August 5, 201410 yr Best: Probably the Queen Amidala minifigure I want so bad. Worst: One of the first-ever released Star Wars sets was the Speeder Bikes, with these as Scout Troopers: Any slight movement of the helmet caused yellow to be sticking out of the Trooper's mask. I resorted to simply taking droid heads from Insectoids and turning them around in order that there wouldn't be any embarrassing yellow. (One good thing about the face: it allowed me to make a Darth Sidious character, as his face was never shown in Episodes I or II.) Also, got to throw in Battle Droids. They stay together for maybe a minute at a time before completely falling apart. Oh, and their hands often crack, to make matters worse.
August 6, 201410 yr Juno eclipse was definitely one of the most poorly made figures. But battles damaged Darth Vader made up for that! :)
August 7, 201410 yr My vote for best goes to the turtles (cartoon, not those ugly pieces of trash from the new movie). Even with the design flaw of having the platic shell on their backs stopping the legs from rotating backwards, they printed the shells on the back so you could have that flexibility to remove the shell and get more articulation without the figure looking more weird. Worst fig: Star Wars Clone Wars Humanoid figs. Ew. *shudders* Edited August 25, 201410 yr by Jared
August 20, 201410 yr A new best: Heath Ledger Joker. I think they handled the dark character rather well, keeping the creepiness of his appearance while making it colorful and LEGO-like. Edited August 20, 201410 yr by 8BrickMario
August 21, 201410 yr My new best would be the Lego Batman 3 Space Suit Batman, http://img2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20140727021715/lego/images/d/d5/14753584925_c9fd214239_h.jpg
August 23, 201410 yr My personal favorite has to be Star-Lord from the Starblaster Showdown set. The mold for his helment is amazing and the printing can only be described as gorgeous.
