August 12, 201410 yr Enough about global economics and exchange rates, where's the WhiteFang review of this series? Haha. Hear hear!
August 12, 201410 yr Enough about global economics and exchange rates, where's the WhiteFang review of this series? This, come on WhiteFang!!!......
August 12, 201410 yr Yeah the review is just about due... Bit more than 2 weeks to go until they are officially released
August 13, 201410 yr Except Spooky Girl, Genie Girl and Battle Goddess. Is Spooky Girl a monster? No, I am meaning real monsters, not spooky people. She is spooky and not a monster like a vampire, ghost or witch. The Battle Godess is not a mythical creature like a Minotaur or Mermaid. The Genie Girl is one but I just don't feel like its a creature or type of animal. I still think this series is kind of boring, but there are some minifigures that I am starting to like.
August 13, 201410 yr Is Spooky Girl a monster? No, I am meaning real monsters, not spooky people. She is spooky and not a monster like a vampire, ghost or witch. I dunno, man. She might be an onryo.
August 13, 201410 yr She is not a classic monster like the Mothman, the Headless Horseman or the Swamp Creature but it's a nice and unexpected addition to the monsters group in the CMF
August 13, 201410 yr There are three fantastical/unnatural characters in the series. A Greco-Roman goddess is certainly a mythical entity, the Spooky Girl is a horror-based concept, and the Genie Girl is obviously from fairy tales. And technically, the Princess's labeling marks her as fantasy, too.
August 13, 201410 yr I dunno, man. She might be an onryo. We'll, maybe I will get her just to use her for that, but I am going to have to replace the face with a skeleton head then.

August 13, 201410 yr I was also hoping White Fang would have a review by now. I am pretty sure the spooky girl is suppose to be Wednesday or goth chic.
August 14, 201410 yr There seems to be a whole lot of unfounded expectations about having Whitefang's review up already. I'm guessing that, if he had the figures in his hands (kind of a critical component to doing a comprehensive review, don't you think?) He would probably review them. Lego is kind enough to provide the figures early, and Whitefang is kind enough to devote the significant amount of time required to do his reviews, so I for one will be happy with it whenever it comes.
August 14, 201410 yr Well said. His reviews are great and very good for looks at the new parts, but people have elevated them to an unnecessary legendary status, which sort of prevents anyone else from making reviews of the CMFs. All in good time.

All in good time. Whitefang reviews ARE legendary. Would it be only because he has 14 series behind him. I may possibly understand they are not everyone's cup of tea, but I hardly imagine someone doing better than him.
August 14, 201410 yr I do like them, it just seems like ever since the first one, it's become his thing, and hyped up too much. The reviews really do tie the theme together, and have excellent pictures, and I do look forward to the next one, just perhaps less than others. I want to see if there are any double-sided heads!
August 14, 201410 yr Whitefang's reviews are more than just a tradition that we enjoy. Between being both exhaustively thorough and the fact that he gets them early, I don't see how anyone can compete. Not that I want to. But his review will go live when LEGO says it is okay and not before. He tells it like he sees it, but it is a promotion event for LEGO.
August 15, 201410 yr Yeah the review is just about due... Bit more than 2 weeks to go until they are officially released I don't think any of us should impose deadlines for WhiteFang. Anyways, isn't the release date October? If they were to be released in September, wouldn't the bios be up at least? Nobody knows what the bags look like, as well, so I think they won't be out for a while. I'm really hoping we get purple bags this time.
August 15, 201410 yr Yeah the review is just about due... Bit more than 2 weeks to go until they are officially released The official release date is October 1st.
August 15, 201410 yr Wasn't the color of this series confirmed to be yellow again? About WhiteFang's review, obviously we are all anxious to see the pictures and the review since we have waited for almost a year for the next regular series. But I'm a little more worried about what's coming next. I mean, Series 12 was confirmed back in december, 10 months before the official release date. Isn't it time of news about a possible Series 13?
August 15, 201410 yr Does this mean anything? :S http://www.argos.ie/static/Product/partNumber/2686824/Trail/searchtext%3ELEGO+MINIFIGURES.htm

August 15, 201410 yr Yeah, the official color for this is yellow, as shown at the toy fair and a few catalogs.
August 15, 201410 yr Now the background in the Japanese catalog makes sense. But why yellow again? It looks too close to the S10 gold and S1 yellow.
August 15, 201410 yr I thought I saw somewhere where it seemed (to me) to be the Bright Light Orange (hazmat suit) color. But if LEGO continues making these figs into the far future then we definitely will see some repeats of colors. I just wouldn't expect that before they uses up purple and/or pink.
