K-Nut Posted June 1, 2015 Posted June 1, 2015 (edited) I don't know if it has a big enough presence at Comic Con for a figure. Surely it does not have a large presence like Marvel, DC, or Tolkiens works. Edited June 1, 2015 by K-Nut

Surely it does not have a large presence like Marvel, DC, or Tolkiens works. I see your point but I don't think they need it. The Simpsons are a pop culture phenomenon. Everyone knows who they are. Since they would need to reuse one of the moulds for a SDCC minifigure, there are not many options for a "new character". I'd say Bartman, but it's already done. Some guesses: -Radioactive Man using Homer's headpiece -Hugo -Homer as Pieman Edited June 1, 2015 by Robert8
Huigberts Builds Posted June 1, 2015 Posted June 1, 2015 What are the chances of getting a Simpsons minifigure as a SDCC exclusive? Is it wrong of me to hope there won't be any SDCC exclusives? They have done it with many other series I really liked and because I live in Europe I was never able to get any of them, it was never a really big deal however, I was never able to complete the entire series anyway (but I was close with TMNT). But with the simpsons it's different, and I really want all of it, really don't want to miss out on any of the figures.
Blondie-Wan Posted June 1, 2015 Posted June 1, 2015 What are the chances of getting a Simpsons minifigure as a SDCC exclusive? I think they might conceivably do an exclusive version of a character, such as an existing character in a unique outfit. Not to give them ideas, but I can think of one for whom it would at least be fitting: they could offer an SDCC-exclusive version of Comic Book Guy attending SDCC himself - like the regular CBG, only printed with a little SDCC lanyard, and perhaps including a bag or backpack for swag. I actually wouldn't mind this one, since it would be so appropriate, as well as likely the only way this particular character version might be released at all. I find it extremely unlikely they would have an entire character released only as an SDCC exclusive, though, unlike exclusive characters they've sometimes done for other themes, such as the Collector and Spider-Woman, since characters from this theme all require new individual head molds, and they're not going to create an entire new mold for a part they intend to make only a few hundred of.

I finally have EVERYTHING LEGO made for a theme, I don't want to spend $100+ on a single fig just be complete again :)
Borex Posted June 1, 2015 Posted June 1, 2015 they could offer an SDCC-exclusive version of Comic Book Guy attending SDCC himself - like the regular CBG, only printed with a little SDCC lanyard, and perhaps including a bag or backpack for swag.

But if there's going to be a sdcc exclusive my guess would be another Homer version.
Robert8 Posted June 2, 2015 Posted June 2, 2015 an SDCC-exclusive version of Comic Book Guy attending SDCC himself That would be pretty neat Blondie-Wan! But as Borex said, Homer (or Bart) are most likely
Kryne Posted June 4, 2015 Posted June 4, 2015 Id say if Homer was an SDCC exclusive it would be Mr Plow. Not saying i want that to happen but thats the most likely scenario i think.
Doctor Doom Posted June 11, 2015 Posted June 11, 2015 (edited) Here's the figures they should create for Series 3 (If they create them!): 1. Number One 2. Herbert Powell 3. Fat Tony 4. Skinner 5. Lindsey Naegle 6. Jasper 7. Blue Haired Lawyer 8. Bumblebee Man 9. Mr. Plow 10. Kent Brockman 11. Eddie 12. Lou 13. Sideshow Bob 14. Disco Stu 15. Todd Flanders 16.

Domer_Simpsoy Posted June 14, 2015 Posted June 14, 2015 It saddens me how often people miss off Phil Hartman's characters off their wishlists
Doctor Doom Posted June 14, 2015 Posted June 14, 2015 Phil Hartman's dead. Showrunners took his characters offscreen due to respect to him. I also did that in my wishlist. I respect him.
Super Goblin Posted June 14, 2015 Posted June 14, 2015 How is pretending like his characters didn't exist respect him? Show runners took his characters off to respect by not having someone else voice them.
just2good Posted June 14, 2015 Posted June 14, 2015 It saddens me how often people miss off Phil Hartman's characters off their wishlists Troy McClure has always been the character I want to see the most after Series 1 came out.
Legocity2713 Posted June 14, 2015 Posted June 14, 2015 How is pretending like his characters didn't exist respect him? Show runners took his characters off to respect by not having someone else voice them. Yeah, having his characters immortalized in Lego would actually be a huge gratitude and sign of respect towards him. Troy McClure has always been the character I want to see the most after Series 1 came out. Ditto. :thumbup:
Huigberts Builds Posted June 15, 2015 Posted June 15, 2015 Hi, I'm Troy McClure. You may remember me from such toys as 'The Lego Simpsons CMF series 3'. I could totally see that happen, out of respect the the person who voiced Edna, Edna wasn't voiced by a new person. But she still got a cmf, so Troy also could get one.

I could totally see that happen, out of respect the the person who voiced Edna, Edna wasn't voiced by a new person. But she still got a cmf, so Troy also could get one. True, but Troy has been retired from the show for quite a long time, while Edna hasn't been out of the show that long
SweetiePie88 Posted June 15, 2015 Posted June 15, 2015 I picked up 3 the other day. A frink, Edna, and moleman. Hopefully going to seek cbg and smothers today but that's probably going to be it until I find them on sale. 2 out of the 3 packs I got had heads that weren't clutching as well as they should. Had to email them and they are sending out 2 random packs.
SweetiePie88 Posted June 16, 2015 Posted June 16, 2015 Picked up 3 more but i screwed up. I should of gotten 2 CMG's and a smithers but when i was putting figures back in the box at the store, i accidently put smithers back and put a homer into the basket. Didn't realize it until after i got home and opened it up. While i am upset w/ the mix-up, at least it wasn't a martin prince since he's my least wanted character. His doofy minifigure face would give me nightmares. Haven't decided if i'll try seeking about smithers but maybe the freebies will pan out.

Legocity2713 Posted June 16, 2015 Posted June 16, 2015 Anyone who does't want to use the orange skirt piece for Marge from Simpsons Minifigures Series 2 can use Chell's leg piece. Dual molded legs, orange on top (on the thigh area) and white boots (on the foot/ankle area). I think it would look good. :thumbup:
SweetiePie88 Posted June 16, 2015 Posted June 16, 2015 Got to go to the store again. Decided to get a smithers but br check out time, I double checked at least 4 times that it was the right one. Just opened it and it was Smithers.
Tariq j Posted June 16, 2015 Posted June 16, 2015 ^^ Nice, in my minifigure collection I still have Martin and Edna to go.
