LEGO Collectable Minifigures Series 12 Rumours and Discussion

[8BrickMario]

Spooky seems like she would be GitD, but I doubt they would do that for a CMF (and she's China-made). Would make it more worth the money, but it depends on whether or not glow in the dark would make sense for her character (her bio will reveal all...).

Wait, what's up with Piggy? Look at that line on the bottom of his torso... is that printing or is it three-dimensional? The angle and shadows are confusing and that line doesn't look like good detail to put on the torso since we can't see any other printing on it.

Can someone Identify this thingy in the middle of the picture?

Edited July 1, 2014 by Wardancer

[8BrickMario]

Which thingy? There's a Nixel and the Speedor from Web Dash.

[SirBlake]

Hmmm, unfortunately none of these three do anything for me, but I'm not complaining. Lots of potential wih the rest that have yet to be revealed.

[The Executive]

The spooky girl is exactly what I expected. She's basically a goth girl with a little Elvira/Vampira feel to her. The piggy guy also is pretty much what I envisioned.

[Amset-Rah]

Prospector: He's alright, but I wish they used a different beard for him instead of the Fusebot recolor. It just doesn't work for me, and I would have chosen the Santa beard in gray instead. Other than that, a decent figure, as his hat mold is pretty good.

Spooky Girl: I really like this one. The new hair is great, the concept can work for a lot of applications. The spider on the torso is a bit of a let down, but the bear makes up for it.

Pig suit guy: I am a bit mixed here. While I like the new pig mask, the face inside is a little generic, but it could be used for a kid. The apple is a welcome addition.

[strangely]

Well...yeah. I would expect a version with hairband, but at least Gwen won't become another Storm if she would be in any future set.

I would expect a hairband too, but after the 2013 version of April O'Neil I think Lego would probably just print the hairband on.

Santa-beard in gray would be nice, but I don't mine the Wiley beard in gray, either… more fodder for dwarves! (already have two dwarves sporting Wiley-beards; looking forward to seeing how it works with the various graybeard heads or even mustaches like CMF Explorer)

Spooky Girl looks okay, Piggy Guy's great. Prospector's biggest draw for me is the beard & more Western body parts, even tho I tend to focus on Castle & Scifi.

[Wardancer]

Which thingy? There's a Nixel and the Speedor from Web Dash.

Oh, this is a nixel. This new idea was unknown to me up to now, but I googelt and found it. Very ugly.

I like the spooky girls leg piece, this might be useful.

[Amazing Bricks]

So there's six minifigures left.

Hun Warrior: New head piece, he will either have a spear or a bow and arrow, and some sort of shield.

Fairytale Princess: Blonde hair, Bee woman's wing piece in pink, a cloth piece, and a star wand as an accessory.

Pizza delivery Man: Red hat with a logo on it, red shirt with short sleeves, and a pizza piece or a new piece that a pizza can fit in, or a printed tile piece.

Genie girl: The skin color will either be pink or purple, new head piece, different color of the series 6 genies lamp.

Rock Star: New hair piece(maybe blue), star looking glasses printed on his face, leather jacket on the torso, and a guitar.

Lifeguard Dude: New hair piece, shows his body, red shorts, different color of the series 2 Lifeguards rescue buoy

Is that just speculation, or what?

[Amazing Bricks]

Yes, but i hope it's right

[Sandy]

Loving the Spooky Girl, it is indeed a mixture of Wednesday Addams and Samara/Sadako from The Ring.

Fairytale Princess: Blonde hair, Bee woman's wing piece in pink, a cloth piece, and a star wand as an accessory.

You're describing a Fairy Godmother, not a princess.

I'm really rooting for a first-ever pink sloped dresspiece. Or did I already say it.

[Blakstone]

I think you will get that dress piece. But I think the princess will get the new wizard hat in a different color instead of hair.

[8BrickMario]

I doubt they would use the same new piece twice in the series. The modern perception of princesses is long flowy hair with tiaras, so maybe we'll get a Friends hairpiece in a new color. I hope we get a new tiara piece, though.

[strangely]

I'm sort of hoping for a new piece entirely for the dress. After all Queen Amidala got a special dress piece, so I see no reason the princess shouldn't. Plus I'd just like to see some diversity for the dresses, the slope brick is getting kind of repetitive.

It would sort of look like she was bald if they used that piece.

I LOVE the Spooky Girl! Probably my favourite CMF fig in a long time! That hairpiece is so cool!

It's happened before, but then again it was just with the Bride and Hippie's bouquet in Series 7, which is definitely different than a hairpiece. Time will tell though, but I do expect two different hats.

[Robert8]

Pieces coming twice in the same series isn't rare at all

It happened in Series 1 with the bow and the quiver in the Forestman and the Tribal Hunter

It happened in Series 2 with the Vampire and the Karate Master hairpiece

In Series 3 the Space Alien and the Space Villain had the same ray gun

In Series 4 both the Ice Skater and the Hockey Player had the same ice skates

The Bride and the Hippie had the same flower piece in Series 7

And it happened again in Series 8 with the ray gun piece in the Evil Robot and the Alien Villainess

But I don't think it will be the case this time: the hairpiece in the Fairytale Princess will be like the Sad Clown's but larger

Would it be too much to hope that the Princess might actually give us a real dress piece that is the same height and connection as normal legs, and not simply a printed slope? Much like they did for Maggie Simpson? Now that would be something that they could get some long term use out of.

Too much to ask? No. Will it happen? Probably not, but it sure would be neat to see lego move in that direction.

I am a little frustrated that they didn't do this years ago, it seems like such an obvious and useful piece. Although I wouldn't be surprised if instead of just using a basic slope shape, they shaped it in some way to suggest Lego legs in some way. Not sure how that would work.

I think the minidoll long skirt is closer to my original expectation. They're, at least, able to bend their body forward and sit on something. The slopes don't do anything in actions, neither does Maggie.

If TLG did, things would end up like this:

It's hard to tell, the designers have given us chicken and manbat hands, they may give us a new body design, but they might also want to keep the slopes since series 2.

I'm also inclined to think a hair piece with a tiara like the princess in the Dragon Mountain set ( http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?M=cas533 ). But if we're lucky, maybe we'll get a hennin like this one http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=x107

but in a new colour for that piece, e.g. pink.

That would be really a thing!

I really wish they could do something like this, I'd buy tons of those for all my female minifigures.
