Yup. They didn't make female specific printing. Kinda weird in my opinion but it does also make it easier to just grab random heads and expand your teams.

Cool thatll save money.

Plus I need to stick up on female heads with unique facial features. I'm hoping to make a JEM style girl band, any pieces people suggest?

I need to order some CMFs that would help like the pop singer, workout girl, and rock band Mohawk dude (for guitar). I already plan to use the CMF rock girl and the space girl head that I have.

Head was obviously designed to look best with headpiece on.

Anyone that actually bought the Goblin King Battle could give me some honest and frank thoughts on the set?

 

[RelentlessRolento]

bricklink is down so I cant look it up but what set is this head from?

Ice skater from series 4.

I think I've also seen it in the build-a-minifigure stand at the LEGO Store.

Markup is minimal to non existent on most things. Best thing is combine that coupon with their bogo 50% sale on regular Lego sets this weekend.

The question is whether the heads were just stuck on standard LEGO bodies or if these will be the dimensions of these minifigs... Or whether this is real at all.

Doesn't feel like LEGO with the oversized heads.

I don't like it. Hopefully fake.

Homer looks so off...

Looks like Megablock quality.

Was hoping the helmet wings/bolts were removable. Looks like it's one piece.

Umm...not feeling it completely. Looks somewhat legit. I'll hold my less than happy initial reaction until I see the final product with proper matching bodies. Assuming this is real and close to final product.

Odd look on face for homer unless it's a doughnut set and he's about to drool. I would think they'd put a more standard expression on him. If legit, I sense a "perv Homer Simpson" meme similar to the Toy Story perv Woody meme.

Lemonade stand is a definite buy.

$100 for cookies and lemonade? I think that stand is a front for "special" cookies.

Looks legit. Not the best expression on Homer though. Size of the head is about what I expected though. Looks much closer to the cartoon than if they had changed the proportions.

Yes. As shown below.

I'm waiting on bricklink to be back up to put in an order for the female head but I might jump on ebay though I'd rather not.

I'll withhold judgement, they're obviously the wrong bodies and the photos are terrible with front facing flash

The vase for the flower is a new piece first shown in the new restaurant modular. Jamie discuses it in the designer video. Check it out if you haven't already.

I bet homer gets an over chest piece for his fat white shirt belly.

Lego TMNT vs Mega Blocks
TMNT by Vanjey_Lego, on Flickr

I kinda like the way the Mega block figs look in comparison. The heads look much better IMO. I'm crossed on which body I like better. LEGO legs win.

I'll be honest, I wasn't sold on LEGO TMNT when I saw them at first, but that pic is a flawless victory for LEGO!

 

[Jeff Vader]

This is gonna sound weird but why is it that lego refuses to do leg printing on the vanilla stormtroopers and clone trooper minifigs? It looks weird when you see nearly every other new fig getting them but these still sticking to plain white legs.

As Calm Killer said, it is a new vase piece for 2014. I love it, and can't wait to get a lot of them.

As for the large amount of cash, maybe it is yen.

That will probably change soon.

I hope so. Though when it does I see myself placing a large order of legs off bricklink!

A reminder that starting at midnight tonight, LEGO will be offering the first limited edition Christmas set (40082) with purchases of $99 and up.

 

[Calm Killer]

So far I have completed 5 of the monster hunter sets. I have not built ghost train, vampire castle or haunted house yet. But I have to say so far the scientist an his monsters set is the best one I have built. The way the use the light brick in that set is amazing to me. I didn't expect it and it was a great surprise. I will start on ghost train tomorrow and hopefully vampire castle.

Save Vampyre and Haunted House for last. Because everything else is a downgrade.

Drive because then you get the Lego sooner.

And potential pab goodness. But more money in gas. But small price to pay for not putting up with fedex.

Same. And I understand that they look the way they look: in line with most LEGO printed faces.

I'm sure designing new molds is a scary one but a ton of thought still goes into each piece

 

[Reluctant-Hero]

Holiday set promo is live now.

Placed my order for the Winter Cottage (wife approved too!) and the Thanksgiving polybag.

 

[tiggerkiddo]

That polybag is great looking, they are doing an awesome job on these seasonal polybags.

I still haven't opened my Christmas train one from last year...

 

[BentBricks]

And potential pab goodness. But more money in gas. But small price to pay for not putting up with fedex.

PAB favor (por favor) if you go to LEGO store. Will page for shipping and chip in for gas money. These are the ones in the wild I'm searching for.

Large cups
- Tree leaves x2 (not palm leaves. small cup x1 for palm leaves)
- 2x2 bley x1

Small cups
- 1x2 trans blue x1
- 1x2 purple x1
- 1x2 pink x1

 

[ghostmind]

I decided to order online this time, to see if they will include the LEGO shop employee poly.

Hmmm. Good idea. Maybe order Winter Village online. Ewok in store. Gets me two holiday promos.
I am obviously on the fence about Winter Village now, or redeem VIP and order it on Black Friday. Of course, I could wait until after the holiday and get it at a discount like I did with the last Winter Village. With the possibility of moving in January, I don't know if I will have a big holiday set up this year after I take down the Halloween display.

I am in a similar quandary.

I have the post office, bakery and cottage to build this year in addition to the disassembled toy shop. Do the holiday sets always get discounted? I loved getting the cottage at such a mark down this past Feb and will wait if so.

I am going to get Palace Cinema on Tuesday in order to get the holiday bonus...I will be sitting around $130 in VIP points so the toss up is: Horizon, WVMarket or VW camper.

I still need to order Farnsworth House online but I will hold off until we get news about the Store polybags going out to Canadians.

Speaking of which-happy Thanksgiving, Canadians!!

It is double VIP time. I would hold that $130 in VIP points to maximize what you get from purchases this month. I plan to dump all my points into Black Friday purchases.

As for your choice between Horizon, WV Market, and VW Camper: VW Camper. All the way. A damn near perfect set if it were not for the fear of putting those stickers on perfectly.
