I enjoy looking for interesting parts. Today I will share details about parts ordered in late July 2016.<br />
<br />
<br />

Its easy to confuse Pick-A-Brick and Bricks & Pieces. I don't live near an official LEGO store so I don't have regular access to a Pick-A-Brick wall so I love having access to parts with Bricks & Pieces. Of all of the options though a Pick-A-Brick wall offers the best prices.<br />
<br />
My order arrived in a bubble-wrap lined mailer. Since discovering Bricks & Pieces I've placed several orders and all of them shipped in a similar fashion. I'm not sure if very large orders would ship in a box or if all ship this way.<br />
<br />

<b>Torso's and Legs:</b><br />
Its easy to find pick out lots of minifigure parts. I usually pick out too many and then have to remove some from my cart.<br />
<br />
Pictured are the torso's and legs that I ordered. On the top left we have Catwoman's torso from Classic TV Series Batcave set #76052. Neither her hairpiece or face were available. In green we have the Riddler's torso and legs from the same set.<br />
<br />
The black and blue torso belongs to Blue Beetle from Scarecrow: Harvest of Fear set #76054. I really like the colors and printing and think that the torso may be interesting to use in sci-fi space mocs.<br />
<br />
The torso with the sweater is from Fun in the Park: City People Pack set #60134.<br />
<br />
In red we have a female red torso from a Nexo Knight set. If I remember correctly it is the torso of Lavaria. It is available in Jestro's Volcano Lair set #70323 (and I think several others). The legs are also from Nexo Knights sets. They should be useful for monsters.<br />

<b>Printed tiles:</b><br />
<br />
I love collecting printed parts for use in future builds.<br />
<br />
I only bought four of the small 1x1 printed tiles of each Nexo Knight. I need to buy the others in future orders. The blue one takes me back to my childhood with the Falcon Knights (although there are slight differences I'm sure).<br />
<br />
I love those goofy round 2x2 printed tiles (also from Nexo Knights sets).<br />

Yet another purchase for my medieval themed builds. The torso and dress piece belongs to Nexo Knight minifigure Queen Halbert from Infernox captures the Queen set #70325.<br />

<b>Minifigures heads!!!</b><br />
<br />
My minifigure head collection has grown a lot since I returned to LEGO as an adult. I love having mixing and matching heads and hairpieces to make new characters. I always buy extra for my son and friends.<br />
<br />
I tried to create columns of each head. In each column I tried to turn 1x backwards to display its alternate printing if its double sided. Either Lance Richmond's head is not double sided or I forgot to turn one backwards.<br />
<br />
<b>Top row: </b>From left to right we have 4x Nexo Knight: Chef Eclair heads (set 70317), 2x Lance Richmond heads (70312), 1x Axl head (70322), 1x Ava Prentice head (70324), 2x Queen Halbert heads (set 70325).<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<br />
2nd row: six different enemy heads from various Nexo Knights sets. The first two have printing on the back but its not an alternate expression (as you can see in the photo). The remaining four each have slightly different expressions on the back).<br />
<br />
Bottom row: 6x lady face with glasses (set 60134), 6x Louis Tulley heads (75827). In set #75827 Louis Tulley is seen with two different faces so I assumed that it is double sided. I wanted the other face. Apparently it is NOT double sided. *Bummer. 4x Jestro heads (Nexo Knight 70316), 6x man with mustache heads (set 60134), 6x Moltor heads (70313) which has back printing but its not an alternate expression, 6x Aaron Fox heads with beaming smile and freckles (set 70313).<br />
<br />
*I'm listening to a Jangbricks review while writing this to discover the truth behind the Louis Tulley head.*<br />
Update: Louis Tulley has 2x different heads in the set. One is double sided and one is not. Thanks Jang!<br />

I love these "Elf" hoods with ears! I really, really want to see one with yellow ears! Maybe in a dark green?<br />
<br />
The peasant hat (farmer cap) is very useful in medieval builds. Its been around for long time and in different brown colors. I was very happy to see it re-appear in a set because I needed some.<br />
<br />

I'm a little excited about the black Nexo Knight Ash Attacker helmet. It reminds me a little of the hat created for Mola Ram from Indiana Jones. It has spots for horns or attachments on either side.<br />

I've always liked these "Jedi" hoods because they can be used in so many different themes and time periods. Is this the first time that its been created in this bright orange color? I've seen them in different browns, dark red, white, black, grey and blue so far.<br />
<br />
To the best of my knowledge the top hat had only appeared in black before but its possible that I missed an appearance in a different color. I would <br />

love to see it in more colors and also different sizes for variety in historical city scenes.<br />
<br />
AND the scarecrow hat! I LOVE this hat with hair hanging down. Its been used at least once in CMF 14 for the Wacky Witch but in different colors (purple hat and grey hair). This may or may not have cost me $3.10 from Bricks & Pieces. I do love it though.<br />

Another that I love is this Green Goblin hat with ears. Its been used before with the goblin from CMF series 13 (brown with ears in a different green) and again in black (with red ears) in the Nexo Knight theme. Also its been used for Green Goblin in a LEGO Juniors set and a Mighty Micros set. The purple and green may be different in those versions of Green Goblin. I may or may not have paid $2.66 for this one.<br />

Remember the Ninja theme from the late 1990's? I remember seeing these hoods in those sets and then it was used again in some of the early Ninjago sets. I'm glad to see them re-appear again for more variety. I really liked finding it in this light grey in case I want to use them for plain grey sculptures.<br />

I discussed these "Elf" hoods earlier in the post. Again note that each has different designs on the top of the hood AND each has different skin tone colors used for the ears. There is another available in a purplish-lavender color in another Elf set. I don't have it yet. As I mentioned earlier I really hope to see these in different colors with yellow ears.<br />

This blue color doesn't really match any of the minifigures that I quickly gathered for photographs. Hopefully in the future I can find a use for it. I suppose with a matching blue cape it would look OK on a minifigure of different colors.<br />
<br />
It looks very nice with regular minifigures I think (not just Friends and Elves mini-dolls)<br />

I love these little guys! The LEGO site refers to them as "scurriers" and there are several different variations (different printing/faces).<br />
<br />
I love the face of this one. His looks very mischievous.<br />

Their arms move but the hands don't come off. <br />

There are holes on both sides of the head. In the Nexo Knight sets they are used to attach horns.<br />

There is also a hole in the back for a tail.<br />

I couldn't quickly find any red "horn" pieces so I used different colors. In the future I'll try different parts to see how they work.<br />
<br />
Note the top hat sits above the holes for horns so it works with horns. Some hair and hat pieces extend down past the holes.<br />

<b>Knight Helmets and Shoulder Armor! </b><br />
<b><br /></b>
I'm still waiting to get a few of the other visor parts from Nexo Knights.<br />
<br />
The one on the right is the one that I most wanted though so I'm happy. Just a bigger more bulky visor than we've seen in the past for medieval themes.<br />
<br />
They look nice with the shoulder armor. NOTE the shoulder armor on the left is a different color than the other.<br />

The back of the shoulder armor has stud's to attach parts which is useful but looks horrible for those that want to use them for traditional medieval mocs.<br />
<br />
Also there is the "hole" in the front that affects which torso may or may not look OK with the armor.<br />
<br />
Nearly every armor piece like these that I've seen has orange on the shoulders. It was great to find some without extra colors. <br />

From the front these look good with armor. From a side view though the first visor sticks out a lot. Maybe a little too much? with armor though it isn't as noticeable.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
NOTE the second visor (on right) has a larger hole on top (for plumes) than visors that we've seen in the past. The traditional plumes won't fit. This one is supposed to work with Mini Pony Tail (design #22411) but I really struggled to fit it into the hole.<br />

<b>Helmets for army building.</b><br />
<br />
I've seen these in several different colors over the years.<br />
<br />
Grey (Silver Met.) Steel Helmet (design #30273)<br />
NOTE this is not the super shiny color that was available years ago in Castle themes although I really like this variation.<br />
They are also currently available in BR.Blue in Nexo Knights sets.<br />
<br />

Thank you for reading! I've been very busy with grad school and for other reasons I'm not sure how much longer I'll continue the blog. Maybe I'll revive it in a different form in the future. Maybe not.<br />
<br />
Comments and thoughts are always welcome. Thank you!<br />

I recently purchased LEGO Elves: 41078 Skyra's Mysterious Sky Castle and decided to experiment with some hair swaps to see how they work with LEGO minifigures. See more in my post.<br />

The above photo is Wonder Woman from the 76046 Heroes of Justice: Sky
High Battle and Battle Goddess CMF (blind bags) series 12. I love Wonder
Woman's new brown hairpiece from set 76046. I actually thought it was
the same as the hairpiece from Banshee from CMF series 14 (Monsters) but
as you can see in the following photo's it is slightly different.<br />

I thought that the Wonderwoman brown hairpiece may be the same as the
Dana Barrett minfigure (Sigourney Weaver) from Ghostbusters Firehouse
Headquarters 75827 but I actually think it may be the same as the
Banshee from CMF series 14.<br />
<br />
Anyone know for sure if they are the same? <br />

The purple and light blue hairpiece are from Elves: Skyra's Mysterious Sky Castle. The minidoll in the middle is Skyra from the same set.<br />
<br />
The minifigure in the black is Lois Lane from the same set as the Wonderwoman (Heroes of Justice: Sky High Battle). Skyra comes with the purple hairpiece (plus a cape). <br />

I was originally excited about the possibility of using Elves hairpieces with LEGO minifigures but in most cases they just don't look as good as they do with Elves, Disney Princess and Friends minidolls. Still they do offer new possibilities.<br />
<br />

Hmmm... the hairpiece is the same color as the Banshee's face.<br />
<br />
I really like the Banshee hairpiece on the Skyra minidoll. <br />

I recently placed a purchase with Tokyo Otaku Mode and was very pleased with their shipping costs (free for my order) and their authentic product guarantee. They have warehouses in both Japan and in the US so shipping should be fairly quick for those in the US in most cases. <br />
<br />
Let me begin by stating that I do not own this figure <b>yet</b>. I have placed an order and it is scheduled to be <b>released in January 2016</b>. The preorder period at the Goodsmile Company has ended. It is available though for preorder at Tokyo Otaku Mode online shop (and other online vendors).<br />
<br />
Again I don't have the figure on hand yet. All pictures have been taken from the Goodsmile company page to promote the figure and share with others like myself that collect Legend of Zelda products.<br />
<br />

Majora's Mask Link comes with a different sword and shield than the Wind Waker version (you can read more about this version at a previous <span style="background-color: #f1c232;"><a href="http://cavortblock.blogspot.com/2014/12/legend-of-zelda-action-figures-jakks.html" target="_blank">post here</a></span> )<br />
<br />
I actually prefer the overall look of the Wind Waker version better but this one has great accessories and the figure is incredibly well done.<br />
<br />
If you are new to Nendoroid (Goodsmile company) figures I'll briefly explain that most come with extra parts like arms and legs so that they can be swapped out to make different poses. The arms are usually somewhat poseable. They also usually have alternate faces that can be removed and swapped out so that the expressions can be changed. Many also come with a stand and posing "arm" to help pose figures. Many Nendoroids stand just under 4 inches tall. <br />

<br />
This Link comes with four masks. The three shown here cannot be worn but because of the small hole at the bottom of each they can be placed on his hand so that it appears Link is either removing or about to place one on his face.<br />
<br />
From left to right:<br />
<ul>
<li>Zora mask</li>
<li>Deku mask</li>
<li>Goron mask </li>
</ul>

<br />
There is even a Tatl (fairy) accessory that can be attached to the stand!<br />
<br />
Here you can also see how the arm has be interchanged for the arm that is bent and with peg on the hand to hold the mask. <br />

I mentioned four masks earlier. The fourth one is Majora's Mask!<br />
<br />
The mask can be attached to the front of the face by means of a connecting piece so that Link actually appears to be wearing the mask!<br />
<br />
I really love the paint job shown in the picture on the mask.<br />
<br />
What a great bonus accessory!<br />

Wait! Does the Bunny hood count as a mask? If so customers actually get five masks!<br />
<br />
I'm not sure how the Bunny hood is attached to the head though. I'll have to wait to see when my order arrives.<br />
<br />
Also notice the legs have been changed so that Link appears to be running. The moveable "arm" on the stand is attached to his back so that he can appear to run without falling over. <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

In this photo the moveable "arm" on the stand can be better seen.<br />
<br />
Notice Link's face has been changed to an angrier face more suitable for a combat pose.<br />
<br />
The backside of the shield appears to have wooden details. <br />

I love that a red potion bottle is included in the set. Is the face different in this photo? It looks the same.<br />
I'm guessing that the Majora's Mask Link comes with 2x faces. I don't know how many interchangeable arms and legs. Other contents include:<br />
<ul>
<li>Goron mask</li>
<li>Deku mask</li>
<li>Zora mask</li>
<li>Majora's mask</li>
<li>Bunny hood</li>
<li>Tatl</li>
<li>Red potion</li>
<li>Sword </li>
<li>Shield </li>
</ul>
<br />
While Nendoroid figures only stand about 4 inches tall I look the attention to detail and their overall appearance. I love that they come with stands and interchangeable parts.<br />
<br />
Purchasing them in the US can be tricky since I rarely see them in stores. Most often they are found online and it can be tricky to purchase an authentic Goodsmile brand Nendoroid because of the bootleg versions that are often produced. I'm always nervous about buying them from ebay vendors and through Amazon.<br />
<br />
My favorite way to buy Nendoroid figures is from the Tokyo Otaku Mode online shop. The prices are fair. items are well packaged and they guarantee that all items are authentic and ordered directly from the companies. Best of all for those in the US they also have warehouses in the US which can make delivery quicker. If you are considering purchasing from Tokyo Otaku Mode consider helping me out by using my invite link <span style="background-color: #ffe599;"><span style="background-color: #f1c232;"><a href="https://otakumode.com/invite/32909c" target="_blank">https://otakumode.com/invite/32909c </a><span style="background-color: white;"> .

ALL
parts sorted by type (minifigures and accessories, very specific parts
like tree parts and window screens and tires, basic bricks, bricks with
studs on the side, basic plates, specialized plates...). I find this
more helpful than the pages in the back of instructions booklets because
they are grouped by type and not color.<br />
I have more information about parts and close ups of each type near the end of the review.<br />

Oh
the sticker sheet... I stressed out a just a little trying to apply
these carefully. I'm complaining but still I applaud you LEGO group for
creating an official Mystery Machine. Thank you seriously. I understand
that it would have cost both the company and customers if the parts were
printed. Still... applying those stickers was the least enjoyable part
of building the Mystery Machine. <br />

Shaggy, Zombie/Zeke, Fred <br />
Zombie/Zeke
will definitely be the focal point in an army of grey zombies. I love
the colors used for Zombie/Zeke. He looks great. <br />
<br />

Shaggy,
Zombie/Zeke, Fred (alternate faces... the Zombie only has one
expression). I know that Shaggy has different torso in the lighthouse
set. I'm not sure about the head. He appears to have a different
(unhappy or scared expression) than the alternate expression in the
mummy set. I've only seen pictures though so far. <br />

Notice
Shaggy doesn't have the "black" on the neck stem... why is this? Is
Shaggy manufactured in a different location than the others? All three
minifigures have the imprint under their arm (near the arm pit). This may not mean that Shaggy is manufactured or printed in a different location than the others but I did find it odd. I don't have the answer but I did want to point it out. Usually when I see torso's without the black printing on the neck it is in the LEGO blind bags. <br />

The head is the only moving part and can be rotated 360 degrees<br />

The head fits perfectly onto a "Friends" figure.<br />

In
this set Scooby has two different expressions... one on either side.
I'm very curious to see if the head is the same in all of the sets
(except for the Headless Horseman set which has goggles printed around
his eyes).<br />
<br />

Opposite side. Notice the expression is different<br />
<br />

Scooby
attaches easily to LEGO parts but its not the strongest of connections.
He can be knocked off the plate much easier than a traditional
minifigure<br />
<br />

Here's the minifigure accessories that are included with the set. I love the printed tile. <br />

Here's the Mystery Machine WITHOUT stickers. The hubcaps and spare on the front are printed parts.<br />
<br />

To
establish a sense of scale I've taken some photo's of the Mystery
Machine with the LEGO Movie Ice Cream Machine and The Monster Fighters
Vampyre Hearse<br />
<br />

Both vehicles would go well with Scooby-Doo sets (Monsters and snacks)<br />

Scooby
will fit in the front with another minifigure but not with his feet on
studs. He's loose in there. I don't have a sitting version of Scooby yet
to see how it fits. Scooby has more space in the back<br />
<br />

Its
not necessary to take the windscreen off to place minfigs in the front
but I removed it to take photo's and it comes off easily. The interior
is very plain. Notice how badly I applied that sticker<br />
<br />

2x minifigures fit easily in the front<br />
<br />
<a class="postlink" href="https://flic.kr/p/wK4t3W"><img alt="lego Scooby Doo Mystery Machine" src="https://farm1.staticflickr.com/512/20177988702_3a83517ede.jpg" title="LEGO Scooby Mystery Machine" /></a><a class="postlink" href="https://flic.kr/p/wK4t3W">Review_75902_MysteryMachine_100_4572</a> by <a class="postlink" href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/116332433@N07/">ponderingzissou</a>, on Flickr<br />
Forgive
me for the dust on the windscreen. I dusted the Vampyre Hearse before
taking photo's. I didn't realize there was dust on the Mystery Machine
already (built it only hours before)<br />
Is this the first appearance of this windscreen? I've never seen it before.<br />
<br />
Note:
I removed a few of the parts on the back of the van to let light into
the back of the van. With the back of the van closed it would be dark
and difficult to see Scooby.<br />
<br />

The
top is easily removed (only 2x studs holding it). Many may prefer to
change that the part with a 1x4 plate to hold it on more securely.<br />
<br />

The
walls hinge open to allow even more access to the back of the van.
Those stickers are a pain. It was incredibly difficult to apply those so
that they match up.<br />
<br />

The back is a little crowded with many little details. <br />
<br />

I
think the four orange round tiles represent a stove top. There's a sink
underneath the sandwich. Monitors/screens on both sides (both are
stickers). <br />
<br />

I removed the sandwich to show the sink underneath. I love that they included places to "hang" the flashlight and camera. <br />

Scooby has a special spot to stand in the back. <br />

Scooby
is a little loose on those studs but still it was a nice idea and it
makes it easier to place minfigures when facing either the stove, sink
or monitors. <br />
<br />

Here's
the spooky "robotic" tree with Zombie/Zeke. I chose to not apply the
sticker. It would look much better with the sticker. <br />
<br />

There's
a spot for a minifigure to stand (as if he's hiding and looking
around?). There is a second sticker that goes on the dark grey slope
just below the minfigure's feet. Its appears to be a control panel with
buttons and switches. <br />
<br />

ALL of the stickers are for the Mystery Machine EXCEPT for two. You can see both of those here. <br />

I
should have applied the stickers to the tree. This guy isn't scared at
all. He actually looks happy that trees are coming alive. <br />

Printed parts. Will each Scooby Doo set have different printed tile with some sort of clue newspaper or map?<br />

Minifigures and minifigure accessories (the printed newspaper shown in earlier pic)<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Closing</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Pro's:</span><br />
- The Mystery Machine looks great and is well designed<br />
- Its a quick and fun build<br />
- I love the colors that they set includes. <br />
- Excluding the tree there are four figures (counting Scooby)<br />
- Set includes 3 members of the gang (fans only need to pick up the girls in another set)<br />
- Both Fred and Zombie/Zeke are exclusive (currently) to this set <br />
- ALL of the mifigures (and Scooby) look great. The LEGO designers did a great job designing these. <br />
- 2x new hairpieces<br />
-
With the minifigs included and the opening back of the Mystery Machine
young builders can have a lot of fun playing with the set. <br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Con's</span><br />
-
Sigh... the stickers. The pressure of trying to apply those stickers
was overwhelming for me. Young builders will definitely need to get some
help with those<br />
- Zombie/Zeke... this is me just being incredibly
picky... doesn't have a face that can be revealed when they "unmask"
him. All of the other villains in the other sets do. Granted they have a
helmet or hairpiece to cover the back of their head so that the
alternate face would be covered. It would have been incredibly awesome
if there was a complete second head for Zombie Zeke. I know.. I'm being
too picky. They did add printing to the back of his head so that it
appears to be a mask. <br />
- I think it would have been great to have
included a female minifigure in this set (either Daphne or Velma). True
Fred is usually the driver so it makes sense to include him but they
could have replaced (dare I say it) Shaggy with Daphne. <br />
<br />
I'm a
huge fan of Scooby Doo so this will be a set that I will cherish for a
long time. I may even display two (one at home and at work). The set is
reasonably priced at $30 US retail and includes 301 pieces and four
minifigures (including Scooby) AND there are some fun colors in the set.
I'm very pleased with the set and can't wait to incorporate the Mystery
Machine and the characters into other builds and environments. <br />

I was unsure of which sets to buy to get different variations. For
instance I noticed there was 3x different Scooby figures... Scooby with
goggles, Scooby sitting and Scooby standing/walking. Actually upon
closer inspection it appears there are THREE different HEADS (not 2).<br />
Also
I wanted to know if there were different variations of Shaggy and
Daphne in different sets. I knew Shaggy had at least 2 different shirts.
But is his face different in each. So I used checked the Design IDs for
parts in Brickset and in LEGO Bricks & Pieces (those are the five
digit numbers that I use in this post). If I provided the Design ID then
I did check Brickset and Bricks & Pieces for the information. If I
did not provide a Design ID it is only based upon my visual inspection
of images.<br />
<br />
Here are my findings...<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<br />
Fred: Mystery Machine only<br />
<br />
Velma: Mystery <span style="font-weight: bold;">Mansion</span> only<br />
<br />
Daphne: <br />
- 2 sets (Mansion and Lighthouse)<br />
- Hairpiece (22873)<br />
- Head (22875)<br />
- Torso (76382)<br />
- Leg assembly (22879)<br />
-Appears to be the exact same minifig with <span style="font-weight: bold;">no variations</span>?<br />
<br />
For
the visual people out there (like myself) this may be best for Shaggy
and Scooby (at the end is the written notes used to create the visuals)<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjIVFo7Wydmlw8US9hv1Y2KfcCcl1wCiJY0R5IC_HYCKUBics795Pho2qdZNzG79alsR3U892tXg86R4wo6Sm5L5CzF0XSisedrHH79Kyxh9kzTnPxQjSrduvzCpLhoSvXvE2jnryQh4OzW/s1600/shaggy+diagram.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="LEGO Shaggy variants" border="0" height="245" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjIVFo7Wydmlw8US9hv1Y2KfcCcl1wCiJY0R5IC_HYCKUBics795Pho2qdZNzG79alsR3U892tXg86R4wo6Sm5L5CzF0XSisedrHH79Kyxh9kzTnPxQjSrduvzCpLhoSvXvE2jnryQh4OzW/s320/shaggy+diagram.jpg" title="LEGO Shaggy faces" width="320" /></a><br />
<br />
Shaggy has a double sided head. There are 2 different heads
(total of 4 different expressions). All photo's were taken from LEGO
Bricks & Pieces except for the most frightened (design ID 21665)
which is a detail from a photograph used in a review by Huw at Brickset <a class="postlink" href="http://brickset.com/article/15836/review-75900-scooby-doo-mummy-museum-mystery">http://brickset.com/article/15836/review-75900-scooby-doo-mummy-museum-mystery</a> and the frowning expression is my own from the Mystery Machine set.<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj5QdYurUkrOZXaIqo7Lq-JXwpHjNH_QoBFfUeEQeScYeVHBI7MzSn-a6wsqRfa1QlsNUoER1RNAVfyLSPVxZrSGGpOitS_I0EfWUgDke2OrR1wjfF9DMzlbnUspA1Y8oP2O-cF9f8CW74u/s1600/Scooby+Diagram.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="LEGO Scooby-Doo comparisions" border="0" height="215" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj5QdYurUkrOZXaIqo7Lq-JXwpHjNH_QoBFfUeEQeScYeVHBI7MzSn-a6wsqRfa1QlsNUoER1RNAVfyLSPVxZrSGGpOitS_I0EfWUgDke2OrR1wjfF9DMzlbnUspA1Y8oP2O-cF9f8CW74u/s320/Scooby+Diagram.jpg" title="LEGO Scooby Doo variants" width="320" /></a><br />
Shaggy:<br />
- Hair (I'm assuming there are no variations)<br />
- Head (2 variations)<br />
- - - Design ID 22384 in Mystery Mansion, Haunted Lighthouse and The Mystery Machine<br />
- - - Design ID 21665 (alternate is more scared) in Mystery Plane Adventures and Mummy Museum Mystery<br />
Torso (I'm assuming the only variation is in Haunted Lighthouse)<br />
So.. with Shaggy I didn't check the design ID for the hair, legs and torso (visual inspection of pictures only)<br />
- - Mystery Mansion and The Mystery Machine are the SAME MINIFIGURE?<br />
- - Mystery Plane Adventures and Mummy Museum Mystery are the SAME MINIFIGURE?<br />
- - Haunted Lighthouse has an EXCLUSIVE TORSO but the same head as the Mansion and Mystery Machine<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;">So.. with Shaggy we have 3x variations?</span><br />
<br />
Scooby:<br />
- Head (3x variations)<br />
- - - Design ID 21648 in Mystery Mansion and the Mummy Museum Mystery<br />
- - - Design ID 22382 in Haunted Lighthouse and the Mystery Machine<br />
- - - Design ID 22349 in Mystery Plane Adventures (goggles)<br />
- Body (2x variations)<br />
- - - Design ID 21649 (walking) in Mansion, Mystery Machine and Mummy Museum Mystery<br />
- - - Design ID 22367 (sitting) in Haunted Lighthouse and Mystery Plane<br />
<br />
My brain hurts... <br />
Basically with Scooby we have 3 heads and two bodies. Have fun mixing them up to make different combinations. <br />
<br />

Back to the Scooby Comparisons:</h4>
<span id="goog_1851660318">I discovered the Character Building company when I saw images of Doctor Who minifigures. I began looking for a store in the US that carried their products so that I could buy a few of my favorite Doctor Who characters in minifigure form. They weren't LEGO but they had a lot of similarities. They weren't easy to find in stores in the US but I found a few and ordered a few from Ebay vendors. Not long after I discovered that Character Building was creating a Scooby-Doo line. It included a few building sets with Scooby and the gang plus some villains. They also released villains and members of the mystery solving crew (except for Scooby himself) in blind bags. I was able to find both the Scooby-Doo sets and blind bags at a Toys R Us but I only wanted Scooby-Doo so that he could accompany custom LEGO minifigures of the rest of the gang. I was able to order the Scooby-Doo Character Building minifigure from an Ebay vendor in Britain. </span><br />

I was very surprised and happy when I heard the news that LEGO was creating LEGO Scooby-Doo sets and managed to buy the LEGO Mystery Machine 75902 set two days ago. The LEGO Scooby shown in my post is from that set. I'm not sure which set the Character Building Scooby is from.<br />
<br />
Side by side they look very similar and close to the same size.<br />
<br />

Both are able to turn at the neck. I think it looks a little strange though when the Character Building Scooby is posed this way.<br />
<br />
Also the collar of the LEGO version is much more clearly defined and the color is much more vibrant.<br />

The Character Building figure is much more poseable than the LEGO figure. Here you can see each taken apart.<br />
<br />
The LEGO minifigure can only be moved at the neck. There is also a LEGO Scooby in sitting form. It also only moves at the neck. I hope to have one soon. <br />

Character Building Scooby definitely out scores LEGO Scooby in movement possibilities.<br />
<br />
Also his feet snap onto LEGO studs much more securely than the LEGO version.<br />
<br />
Each foot of the Character Building figure can snap separately on a stud while the LEGO version attaches much differently. Below is a photograph of LEGO Scooby's feet. <br />

<span id="goog_1851660318"> Each foot of the LEGO Scooby only connects to a small portion of a LEGO stud. One leg is raised. The other three legs work together to grip LEGO studs. </span><br />
<span id="goog_1851660318"><br /></span>
<b><span id="goog_1851660318">Verdict:</span></b><br />
<span id="goog_1851660318"><br /></span>
<span id="goog_1851660318">LEGO Scooby looks much better in both the sculpt and printing. Also LEGO has released both a standing and sitting version. Now they just need a frightened and wrapped around Shaggy version. Each side of this Scooby face is different. One side looks frightened while the other is calm. This is great for those that like to do LEGO stop motion animation. </span><br />
<span id="goog_1851660318"><br /></span>
<span id="goog_1851660318">Character Building Scooby is much more easy to pose and play with. Even though he has many more articulation points it's impossible to make him sit in a convincing pose. </span><br />
<span id="goog_1851660318"><br /></span>
<span id="goog_1851660318">I prefer LEGO Scooby but only slightly. Character Building Scooby "sticks" to LEGO studs better and has more articulation points but LEGO Scooby looks better, has different expressions and is available in both standing and sitting poses. Please keep in mind this is just my opinion. I love both and plan to keep both in my collection. </span><br />

<br />
<a name='more'></a>I discovered this little guy on the bottom shelf at a Wal-Mart checkout. At the time I had no idea that Jakk's Pacific was making a small version of Link. I've already posted information about their larger Link in the 4 inch line.<br />
<br />
You can read about the 4 inch Link and the Figma Link version in my earlier post <a href="http://cavortblock.blogspot.com/2014/12/legend-of-zelda-action-figures-jakks.html" target="_blank">by clicking here</a><br />
<br />
It appears Jackk's Pacific has a World of Nintendo Line with various sizes.<br />
<ul>
<li>2.5 inch line retailing at $3.99 (various reports of which characters this includes)</li>
<li>4 inch retailing at $8.99 (currently including Mario, Link, Yoshi and Wario)</li>
<li>6 inch line retailing at $14.99 (currently including Donkey Kong and Bowser)</li>
</ul>
Most people report best luck finding the 4 inch and 6 inch figures at Target and Toys R Us stores. I don't have either in town so I have yet to see any of these in stores in my few visits to stores out of town. Many can be found online on Ebay and Toy Wiz but of course the prices are often double retail (or more). I was able to order the 6 inch Bowser from ToysRus (online) but it was out of stock for days. I had to keep checking daily online until I finally found it in stock and ordered one successfully. The link that I had for the 6 inch Bowser no longer works (item not found). But I do have a link for the 6 inch Donkey Kong. Currently it is listed in stock at ToysRus.<br />
<br />
Here's the link <a href="http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=42398016&cagpspn=plat_19164308&camp=PLAPPCG-_-PID19164308:TRUS&eESource=CAPLA_DF:42398016:TRUS" target="_blank">TRU 6 inch Donkey Kong link</a><br />
<br />
Also there are a few other 4 inch figures listed in the recommendations at the bottom of the Donkey Kong link. At the time of this post there the recommendations include: 4inch Mario, 4inch Yoshi and 4inch Wario.<br />
<br />
Moving onto more information about this particular 2.5 inch Link. I found it at my local Wal-mart. It was at the checkouts (near gift cards) on the very bottom shelf. The various characters were mixed up (sharing the same shelf space.<br />

This is a close up of the back of the package. I have more photo's of the packaging near the end of my review.<br />
<br />
The package shows:<br />
Mario, Link, Olimar (from Pikmin), Luigi, Tetra (from Legend of Zelda games such as Wind Waker, Spirit Tracks and others) and Waluigi. I haven't seen a Waluigi in stores yet so I'm assuming many people are snatching him up. <br />

Here he is! Link! My favorite video game character.<br />
<br />
He is poseable but only barely. His head rotates and each arm can be rotated. There are no ball and socket joints. His legs are not poseable at all. His head can be rotated completely around but his hair causes some resistance so doing so loosen his neck slightly.<br />
<br />
The sword can NOT be removed.<br />
<br />
The shield can be removed<br />
<br />
There is NO stand to display him on (or to keep him from falling over).<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<br />
Here you can see how the shield "snaps" onto his arm. It can be a little loose in some spots on his arm. <br />
<br />
He falls over VERY easily. With his tiny little feet and NO display stand its difficult to stand him up without.<br />
<br />
I'm OK with that for such a great looking little figure for the retail price of $3.99 USD.<br />

<br />
Here's a photo of his back. The cap looks nice from this angle.<br />
<br />
Also his sword arm has been rotated making the sword point downward. <br />

Again you can see how the shield snaps onto his arm. <br />

<br />
Underneath is some identifying numbers of some sort.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Jakk's Pacific's website describes this line as being 2.5 inches but as you can see here that Link stands about two and one quarter inches tall (just to be clear).<br />
<br />
I thought Green Arrow was a suitable LEGO minifigure to stand beside him to see how close he is to LEGO minifigure size. <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgiQaG6TQ7jh9TWED9WfrDCygjTbR6vKHyoyqHf1JnXIE9j_9UWWKdveaCd4iTC8VFM-Soj8ntghHgtfYeq5DtWflwjLd0eFYWDb33NaPFn5FIyZex20grZdjs4XaquAXgFMwENoL0VS9Vj/s1600/link_shield.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="LEGO Hyrule Shield" border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgiQaG6TQ7jh9TWED9WfrDCygjTbR6vKHyoyqHf1JnXIE9j_9UWWKdveaCd4iTC8VFM-Soj8ntghHgtfYeq5DtWflwjLd0eFYWDb33NaPFn5FIyZex20grZdjs4XaquAXgFMwENoL0VS9Vj/s320/link_shield.jpg" title="Hyrule Shield" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
The shield doesn't work perfectly with a LEGO minifigure but if one carefully turns it just so and attaches it to the right spot it does work.<br />
<br />
Its a nice shield. For such a small piece (and the price) I think the detailing is pretty great. Is is flawless? No. But I really like it. <br />

Back of packaging.<br />
<br />
Notice that the other characters that I mentioned earlier are on the bottom left of the back.<br />
<br />
Samus is shown on the box but apparently not included in the 2.5 inch line.<br />
<br />
I have seen photo's (online) of a Samus (Metroid) figure that is to be released in the 4 inch line. I have yet to see Samus in stores or available online (other than ebay).<br />

<h3>
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Closing</span></h3>
<br />
For quality of the character meets or exceeds expectations for the price of $3.99. He can't be compared to the larger Nendoroid Wind Waker Link or the Figma Skyward Sword version of Link because they are much more expensive so of course they have much more attention to detail. For $3.99 I'm very pleased. Now if i can find the Ganon (in either 2.5 or 4 inch size) <br />
<br />
<h3>
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Pro's:</span></h3>
- Link for $3.99! What I mean is in the past Legend of Zelda products were released much less than Mario products. It was great being able to purchase him for such a low price and to actually do it in a brick and mortar store (without ordering him online).<br />
<br />
- Apparently there is a 2.5 inch and 6 inch Ganon that has already been released or soon to be released. So maybe there is hope of more Legend of Zelda characters!<br />
<br />
- Very well sculpted for a "toon style" Link of this price and size.<br />
<br />
<h3>
<b>Con's</b></h3>
- Falls over very, very easily. A display stand would have been very nice to have. <br />
- Very limited poses<br />
- Paint details are far from perfect (but for $3.99 I'm satisfied)<br />
<br />

Here is the back of the package.<br />
<br />
Package illustrates how rubber stopper is removed from the bottom of each.<br />
<br />
Small white & black 1x1 bricks shown are not included<br />
<br />
They DO stack on top of each other. AND with SOME clutch power!<br />
<br />
They were slightly smaller than I expected. This isn't really bad... just different than I anticipated. <br />

Alright and now for the test... Can these salt and pepper shakers somehow fit with regular LEGO plates and bricks? I only devoted a little time to the problem. Maybe others can find ways to do so but my quick test with plates (shown here) did not work. The stud on top of the pepper shaker is slightly smaller than the space created here (slightly smaller than a 4x4 space). Also the actual shaker is slightly (only slightly) smaller than a 6x6 plate. Notice in the photo the LEGO plates extend outward on both sides past the edges of the 6x6 frame that I placed on top.<br />
<br />
So one can loosely stack LEGO builds on top but NOT with any sort of clutch power. I'm sure someone will prove me wrong with a clever solution (maybe a snot technique or sorts). I hope so. <br />

I tried to show how much space is between the "stud" and the "frame". Or... just how loose this connection is if that makes more sense. <br />

Here's is the bottom (with stopper removed) sitting on a 6x6 frame made with plates. The opening is slightly too small to fit over the studs. Again this doesn't work.<br />

More fun with photography<br />
<br />
I love the fun with scale one can have with these salt and pepper shakers. With the stoppers removed they look so much like a regular brick (only larger). Of course the holes in the top give them away as well.<br />
<br />
<br />

Still they are great fun. <br />
<br />
I wish they came in more colors instead of just white and black. <br />
<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Closing</span><br />
<br />
At $6.99 it would seem expensive to purchase them for parts since that would be roughly $3.50 each. Compare the price to the larger "brick" storage containers though and it doesn't seem as bad (unless one of course wants a much larger "brick" like the storage containers).<br />
<br />
Also consider that without purchasing these I would have paid over $5 in shipping and would not have received the Winter Soldier polybag (exclusive offer during June 2015). So in a sense this was the perfect time for me to purchase them.<br />
<br />
For small paper weight or display on a desk I also recommend them... although they aren't very large (some may want a larger more easily seen brick "container").<br />
<br />
Also for those in need of a salt and pepper shaker (for dispensing salt & pepper) this isn't a bad price at all compared to other salt and pepper shakers.<br />
<br />
I had loads of fun considering photography possibilities with them and highly recommend them to any LEGO fan that loves photography and playing around with different scale ratios. <br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Pro's:</span><br />
<ul>
<li>Fun way to alter the scale of things (especially in photography)</li>
<li>Cheap desk display or paper weight</li>
<li>Inexpensive and practical Salt & Pepper shaker set</li>
</ul>
<br />
<b>Con's</b><br />
<ul>
<li>Doesn't fit easily with other LEGO or DUPLO parts (although that isn't what they were intended to do... and someone may prove me wrong in the future). </li>
<li>One may consider the price a negative... maybe. Although I'm ok with it. </li>
<li>Only available in white & black</li>
</ul>

All parts (with bags open). Contents sorted by "type" (I'm always tempted to sort by color). Categories that I created are regular plates, basic bricks, tiles, modified bricks (technic bricks and studs on side bricks), slopes, ball & socket parts, minifigure parts, technic parts and other misc parts.

The comic is "double sided" meaning that half is for the new spiderman sets and the other half is for the Antman set. If I remember correctly each comic is about 4 pages. <br />

Sticker sheet<br />
<br />
Here's my first complaint about the set. The stickers aren't "clear". The two yellow stickers can only be used on yellow parts. When I first saw images of the set I hoped that the parts were printed. Then when I discovered they were stickers I hoped they were clear so that they could be applied to any part (regardless of color). Sadly they are limited to the colors shown.<br />
<br />
On a positive note one of my favorite things about the set is playing around with scale meaning that one can now create very large bricks using regular size parts to make minifigures appear as if they have shrunk or simply play with different scales. <br />
<br />
LEGO AFOL Cole Blaq has been creating some very interesting builds of enlarged bricks with regular size parts for years. So the idea of building larger LEGO bricks with regular parts isn't a new idea but with the stickers the "larger than life" studs can now appear to have the LEGO relief on top. Did any of what I said make sense? I hope so. If not please (or if so) please leave me a comment. That would be greatly appreciated. If you haven't seen out Cole Blaq's work you should really check him out. He's one of my favorites and I love the variety of his "brick" series.<br />
<br />
Here's a link to Cole Blaq's Flickr album entitled "enter the brick" <a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/coleblaq/sets/72157636609894156" target="_blank">Clicking here will open a new tab</a><br />

So I'll go ahead and say it... I love this set because of the new scale possibilities (stickers for studs) and the minifigures (and more specifically the helmets)<br />
<br />
The helmets are so cool. I love science fiction and these helmets would be so much fun to include in sci-fi mocs. Hank Pym's and Ant-man's helmets are exactly the same except for their color. All three helmets have transparent (or is it translucent?) parts.<br />
<br />
From left to right we have the helmets of...<br />
Yellow Jacket, Ant-man and Hank Pym<br />

"Arms" are moveable and have the new "shooting" guns on both arms. For those that haven't seen them before... pushing down on the small grey parts causes the translucent yellow round parts to "shoot". These have been used in a lot of recent Star Wars sets. <br />

Details of Yellow Jacket's gear. The part that goes around his neck I've seen used in several recent Ultra Agent's sets and are very useful for creating jet-packs and other accessories. <br />

Ant-man<br />
<br />
I love this expression (his head is double sided with 2x expressions).<br />
<br />
His torso is very similar to that of Hank Pym's.<br />
<br />
I had them switched by accident before taking photo's. Antman's has "silver trim" while Hank Pym's is only red and black with out the "trim".<br />

There's the expression that I like so much without the helmet (although I'm still partial to classic yellow minifigure heads).<br />
<br />
I'm 99% sure that its the same head used for Ezra Bridger (Star Wars Rebels) in set 75048 The Phantom<br />

Hank Pym has two heads. One is a plain black head piece so that his eyes and mouth don't show (shown above).<br />
<br />
Or he has his regular head piece with 2x expressions.<br />
<br />
Unless I'm wrong the same head is used for Gandalf in Hobbit and LOTR sets. <br />

I usually don't apply stickers but as I mentioned earlier I love the idea of creating more realistic "larger than normal" bricks" and the stickers add more details.<br />
<br />
Here's the build without stickers.<br />
<br />
Below is the same build with stickers applied (3x brick stud tops and 2x screw heads). As I mentioned earlier in the review I wish that the stickers had been transparent with only black detailing so that they could have been used on parts of other colors. <br />

The yellow part actually functions as a catapult that launches a "screw."<br />
<br />
Here you can see how this works and the underside of the yellow part.<br />
<br />
I forgot to mention.... I love the screws. Simply stacking two round 1x1 plates gives the illusion of threads on a screw. Nice!<br />

... and oh no he's shrunk! Or did someone enlarge the LEGO parts? I suppose it could be used either way.<br />
<br />
Although in the comics he's usually shrinking down in size or back to regular human size. Right? Correct me if I'm wrong please. <br />

Adding to the fun of scale is a giant flying ant!<br />
<br />
Its a nice build even though some have commented on that the legs aren't all that poseable.<br />
<br />
Also apparently the first few sets that were shipped had a slightly different build with the legs. I don't know the details but apparently there were some slight changes made to the way that the legs attach to the body. <br />

Its a nice looking ant especially considering its included in a set with 3 minifigures for the price of $19.99 USD. <br />

I'm confused about the pink plate in the back. Is there a reason?<br />

Overhead view<br />
<br />
Wow! That looks so convincing!<br />
<br />
Although its not really to scale with the larger LEGO parts though. The ant would be much smaller compared to the LEGO parts right? Maybe in the Ant-man film (not released at the time of this review) the ant is made larger than a normal ant? <br />
<br />
I love the wings. Is this the first time they've been used/released?<br />

I had a lot of fun taking photo's with the idea of scale changes.<br />

The head piece, hair piece and salt&pepper parts are not included in this set. I'll be posting my review of the salt and pepper shaker soon. <br />

<span style="font-weight: bold;">Closing</span><br />
<br />
Great purchase considering all three minifigures are at the moment (of writing this review) exclusive to this set, includes stickers that can help with building at different scales, interesting ant build all for the price of $19.99 USD!<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Pro's:</span><br />
<br />
- x3 exclusive and great looking minifigures<br />
- 3x great looking and very detailed helmets. Great job designers!<br />
- Fun ant build<br />
-Wing parts (are they new?)<br />
-Stickers for tops of large brick built LEGO parts<br />
-Great play possibilities for young builders! Is this all of the main characters from the Ant-man film? If so that's awesome that a young fan can purchase all three in one set for only $19.99 (in contrast to purchasing 2-3 sets to get all of the Guardians of the Galaxy team).<br />
<br />
<b>Con's</b><br />
- Sigh... the stickers. I wish that they were transparent enabling use with any color LEGO part. Still. I'm happy to have them. <br />
-Wow... was that my only complaint with the set?<br />

I'm very pleased with this purchase! 5 minifigures (counting Unikitty), some useful parts and fun tiny car build all for only $14.99. That's only $3 per minifigure (granted I wasn't interested in all of them). I'll review the minifigures last.<br />

<br />
Above is the entire contents (minus instruction manual) sorted by parts type. <br />
It takes a great deal of time for me to sort all of the parts by type but I like to think it keeps my reviews unique. All instructions booklets have a parts inventory at the end of the instructions manual but each part is only pictured once with a quantity number beside them. I like to visually see the quantity of the parts. Maybe I'm wasting my time in doing so. Anyone else find it useful that I sort all parts by type? If not maybe I should stop and spend more time building MOC's<br />

<b>Printed parts</b><br />
- Vitruvius (lower half or legs if you prefer).design ID #20823<br />
- waffle round tile 20730<br />
- radio tile 20734<br />
- Unikitty "eyebrow 1x3 plate 20728<br />
- Unikitty "eyebrow 1x3 plate 20824<br />
- Unikitty tail <br />
-Unikitty face (crying) 1x3 brick 20729<br />
- Unikitty face (stunned) 1x3 brick 20825<br />
<br />
The radio tile was a nice surprise. I had no idea it existed. This is my first time finding this particular part.<br />
I absolutely love getting two Unikitty faces in the same set. I'll compare this Unikitty to Unikitty from the Cloud Cuckoo later in the review.<br />
My son was very excited about the waffle piece. It could be useful for creating textured details in a MOC but the set only includes one.<br />
Vitruvius's bottom half of his robe could be used very effectively as a drape or curtain if more than one were included in the set. I doubt it would be a part to acquire cheap multiples. <br />

<br />
I have no idea why I grouped these together. Maybe because they both have holes? Maybe I just forgot to include them in a category?<br />
<br />
I love the round 1x1's with holes in the stud. I hope LEGO expands the color selection of this part. These are white. I've seen them in white, black, BR.Yel (classic yellow) and New Dark Red. The design ID is 85861. LEGO lists the part as PL.ROUND 1X1 W. THROUGHG. HOLE.<br />

Its a very tiny car but one I consider very memorable. This is the same car that he is driving in the beginning of the LEGO Movie to work? Right? While playing "Everything is Awesome!"<br />

Its a very easy build but I like it. I especially liked that it was included with the couch AND 5 minifigures for $14.99.<br />
<br />
Wouldn't it be fun to create different versions of this car for different characters? Same basic build but modified to match different characters. <br />

The construction hat fits in the back. Although if falls out very, very easily. <br />

Bottom half detail of how its put together. The back simply snaps onto the bottom. The couch "arms" snap on and fold upward.<br />

Very similar to the top half. <br />

<b>Benny! Benny! Benny!</b><br />
<br />
Love the very happy face. Really I would like to have 5 more of these faces. <br />
<br />
Benny has a double sided head. The alternate expression is shown below. <br />
<br />
This is my first Benny minifigure so I can't adequately <b> </b>compare him to other Benny minifigures.<br />

Here's his 2nd expression.<br />
<br />
I THINK this is the 3rd set that Benny is available in and its by far the cheapest way to get him.<br />
<br />
Benny is also available in:<br />
<br />
- Benny's Spaceship, Spaceship, SPACESHIP! #70816 (retail $99.99)<br />
<br />
- MetalBeard's Sea Cow #70810 (retail $249.99)<br />

<b>Ghost Vitruvius</b><br />
<br />
This is his third appearance in a LEGO set (4th if you count the exclusive variant Vitruvius offered in the "Everything is Awesome" edition of the movie) <br />
<br />
Other appearances:<br />
- Lord Business Evil Lair 70809<br />
- MetalBeard's Sea Cow 70810<br />
<br />
To the best of my knowledge there are currently 3 different Vitruvius minifigures. Young Vitruvius (movie exclusive), Vitruvius with jeans and blind (available in 70809 & 70810) and Ghost Vitruvius.<br />

The cape is double sided. Only one side is glittery/shiny.<br />
<br />
I can't tell any difference in this cape and the cape from Lord Business Evil Lair 70809. <br />
<br />
A photo of Vitruvius from 70809 can <a href="http://cavortblock.blogspot.com/2014/04/lego-movie-lord-business-evil-lair.html" target="_blank">be seen here at this link</a> <br />

<b>Pro's and Con's of this Vitruvius</b><br />
<br />
Pro's <br />
- Much cheaper way to get Vitruvius than other sets<br />
- Includes his "staff" accessory and cape <br />
- Love the "leg" part. Its printed on a 2x2x1 but not a slope part like most robe "legs". The design ID is 20823. The part is exclusive to this set.<br />
<br />
Con's<br />
- Does not include his great beard and hairpiece.<br />
- Does not include his face (this one is solid black).<br />
-Both the torso and "legs" are different than other versions. <br />
<br />

<span style="font-weight: bold;">Closing</span><br />
<br />
Very good value for collector of LEGO Movie minifigure's. Unless you already have these characters in minifigure form and aren't interested in variants or different faces.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Pro's:</span><br />
- x5 figures for $14.99<br />
- Exclusive expressions for Unikitty (2x expressions)<br />
- Unikitty and Benny for a very low price (compared to other sets)<br />
- Did I mention I finally have Benny without paying a $10 or more for him? <br />
- Interesting car build<br />
- Interesting couch build<br />
- lots of MD.Blue (light blue) tiles<br />
- Alternate faces of President Business, Benny and Emmet <br />
- Waffle<br />
- Vitruvius "leg" part (design ID 20823)<br />
- printed tile for radio <br />
<br />
<b>Con's</b><br />
- Many may already have these characters and not want duplicates or be interested in slight variants<br />
- Vitruvius is very different (most will probably prefer the other Vitruvius versions)<br />
- Yet another Emmet. I'm sure most have several already. On a positive note they can easily be converted into construction workers by changing out the head and hairpiece.<br />

<a name='more'></a>I've learned to save up and plan some purchases when DOUBLE VIP points are offered. If you aren't familiar with VIP points you can click <a href="http://shop.lego.com/en-US/VIP/index.jsp" target="_blank">this link to open a new window at LEGO.com for more information about the VIP program</a> . Here's the quick details... Its free to sign up, VIP members earn $5 for every $100 spent at LEGOshop@home or in Official LEGO stores. When double VIP points are offered members earn $10 for every $100 spent. There are rare occasions when triple VIP points are offered. That doesn't happen often.<br />
<br />
Double VIP points are available March 14-29, 2015.<br />
<h3>
March 14-20, 2015 is the date in which some offers overlap </h3>
Normally some offers are stackable. Read on for more information. <br />
<br />
It appears (based upon the information in the calendar) March14-20 is the best time to make a purchase if one wants to earn Double VIP points AND get the free Azaris's Magic Fire set (with purchase of any LEGO Elves item) AND get the free Bionicle Hero pack with any purchase. Of course details may change before then and as always the items you are looking for may be briefly out of stock during this period. Also be sure to check out the current Discounted items at LEGOshop@home. <a href="http://shop.lego.com/en-US/Sales-And-Deals" target="_blank">Clicking here will open a new window at LEGO US Sales And Deals </a>. At the time of writing this post (Feb 8th) there are some interesting items available at decent prices. <br />

LEGO Elves sets (new theme) become available March 2015. They do offer some fun colors and elements. By purchasing any LEGO Elves set customer receive a free Azaris's Magic Fire set (shown in photo). There is of course some fine print and it will be available only while supplies last (March 1-31, 2015).<br />

I have to admit that I know very little about the Hero Pack. According to the information provided customers will receive a Free LEGO Bionicle Hero Pack with ANY purchase. It reads as though one does NOT have to purchase a Bionicle item. Offer available March 1-20, 2015 or while supplies last.<br />

<br />
Update (Aug 2105): I now have the Mystery Machine. Here is a link to my comparision of LEGO Scooby and Character Building Scooby <a href="http://cavortblock.blogspot.com/2015/08/scooby-doo-minifigure-comparison.html" target="_blank">CLICK HERE</a> <br />
<br />
Finally Scooby-Doo in LEGO form! Recently I wrote about Character Building brand Scooby-Doo sets and figures because at the time Scooby-Doo did not exist in official LEGO form. You can read the Character Building brand <a href="http://cavortblock.blogspot.com/2013/08/character-building-scooby-doo.html" target="_blank">post here if you like</a>. With the LEGO Scooby-Doo news I've noticed a lot of traffic on the previous post so I thought I should provide some updated information.<br />
<br />
Apparently it is official Scooby-Doo is coming to LEGO! My sources state that they will be available in August 2015!<br />
<br />
The five sets to be released are as follows:<br />
<ul>
<li>Mummy Museum Mystery 75900 ($14.99) no photo's released at the date of this post</li>
<li>Mystery Plane Adventures 75901 ($19.99)</li>

It looks like goggles are painted on his face.<br />

<b>Mystery Mansion 75904 ($89.99)</b><br />
860 piece count <br />
Includes Velma, Daphne, Shaggy, Scooby-Doo, a ghost, vampire, knight (ghost of a knight I'm assuming) and a brick built plant monster.<br />
It appears that all of the five characters are included in this set EXCEPT for Fred (available in the Mystey Machine set). The Scooby-Doo figure shown here looks like the one shown in the photo I've provided of the Mystery Machine. Again... I'm curious to see if there are different versions of Scooby and/or his legs are movable?<br />
Photo taken from toysnbricks.com. Thank you! <br />
<br />
I'm super excited about these sets! The Mystery Machine is must have for me. The Mystery Mansion is not what I expected but I really like the way that it looks. I've heard (rumor) that the interior is very detailed. I can't wait to learn more about it. I'm so happy that it will be under $100.<br />
<br />
I haven't seen photo's of Mummy Museum Mystery 75900 or heard which minifigs will be included. With the exception of the Mummy set here is a breakdown of what sets each minifigure will be found in:<br />
<ul>
<li><b>Scooby-Doo</b>- all sets although I still don't know if there will be different variations of him in different sets</li>
<li><b>Shaggy</b>- all four sets (as with Scooby I have no information about the mummy set yet)</li>
<li><b>Velma</b>- Mystery Mansion ONLY. She will be the hardest one to get unless she appears in the mummy set. She is unfortunately one of my favorites from the show. </li>
<li><b>Fred</b>- Mystery Machine ONLY. It is a cheaper set than the one Velma is available in. </li>
<li><b>Daphne</b>- Haunted Lighthouse AND Mystery Mansion. </li>
</ul>
Again I have no information yet about the Mummy Museum Mystery 75900 set yet so the availability of minifigures will change when information about this set is released.<br />

Looking for an online retailer to purchase a Legend of Zelda,
Goodsmile or Nendoroid item? I recently placed a purchase with Tokyo
Otaku Mode <a href="http://otakumode.com/" target="_blank">http://otakumode.com/</a> and was very pleased with their shipping costs (free for my order) and their authentic product guarantee. They have warehouses in both Japan and in the US so shipping should be fairly quick for those in the US in most cases.<br />
<br />
Please consider helping me buy using my invite link that should give me $5 for inviting new members and <b>save YOU $5</b> as well. Here's the invite link (hope it works) <a href="https://otakumode.com/invite/32909c" target="_blank">https://otakumode.com/invite/32909c</a><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Let me begin by saying that I do not yet own any of these so all images were borrowed from others which I will attempt to give credit to the links that I took them from.<br />
<br />
I am a HUGE Legend of Zelda fan. I haven't played all of the games and probably never will since I simply don't have the time. That being said though Link has always been one of my favorites characters from any video game.<br />
<br />
There have been a few Link action figures and merchandise produced in the past but I either discovered them after they were being produced (higher than retail prices) or they simply weren't that well done. <br />

Recently I discovered THREE link action figures that are still in
production and are well done! The most affordable option can be seen in
images 1-3. Jakks Pacific has created a "World of Nintendo" line which
includes a 4 inch version of Link that retails for $8.99.<br />
<br />
Here is a link
to Jakks Pacific Nintendo products <a href="http://www.jakks.com/nintendo-products.html" target="_blank">click here for Jakks Pacific</a>
. I've been told that he can be found at Target or Toys R Us but I
don't have either in town so the few times that I have ventured on a
road trip Link was not in stock (Mario and Yoshi were). He can be found
on Ebay but usually for a price that is double the retail.<br />
<br />
The figure comes with his sword, scabbard and shield (shield is the "mystery item"). All of the accessories can be carried on his back (sword in scabbard and the shield). For $8.99 he looks amazing and according to my sources has 13 points of articulation. I found a great photo of the action figure taken apart that makes it easy to determine what sort of joints are used. (Thanks <span id="goog_352722055"></span><span id="goog_352722056"></span><a href="http://smeagol92055.kinja.com/world-of-nintendo-skyward-sword-link-review-1658563726" target="_blank">http://smeagol92055.kinja.com/</a> for the great photo!). <br />

<br />
The Japanese company <a href="http://www.goodsmile.info/en" target="_blank">Good Smile</a> has released two versions of Link. There is the Toon style Link also known as <a href="http://www.goodsmile.info/en/product/4370/Nendoroid+Link+The+Wind+Waker+ver.html" target="_blank">Nendoroid Link The Wind Waker Version</a> and the more realistic version <a href="http://www.goodsmile.info/en/product/3575/figma+Link.html" target="_blank">figma Link</a>.<br />
<br />
I absolutely love the Nendoroid Link! I've always loved the Toon style Link and this one is very well done! He looks great and can be posed/displayed several different ways. I've never owned a Good Smile product but I did recently buy one for my son (the Nendoroid Sonic the Hedgehog). While they don't have lots of articulation points they often come with multiple parts that can be changed to change the poses. For example in the first photo (sword slashing pose) Link's left arm (his left.. not yours) is straight. In the third photo his left arm is bent.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhR8VQ0w8pzZFftaM7JgnzJeQQDG1i21ZOmhaTNIUV2u5Wx4x8dUiPQ-aIZ7BQTM6g8cHjhUDwhuSRlzZfJHzSBmmoovip8z5pGS0IxvTHRLMFC1gdNwfUqINgH43qI9wug8r4hN2y655DZ/s1600/link_04_218_1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Good Smile Link Zelda" border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhR8VQ0w8pzZFftaM7JgnzJeQQDG1i21ZOmhaTNIUV2u5Wx4x8dUiPQ-aIZ7BQTM6g8cHjhUDwhuSRlzZfJHzSBmmoovip8z5pGS0IxvTHRLMFC1gdNwfUqINgH43qI9wug8r4hN2y655DZ/s1600/link_04_218_1.jpg" title="Nendoroid Link review" width="240" /></a></div>
I'm 99% sure that this works the same way as my son's Nendoroid Sonic in
which there is both a straight and bent arm. Also there should be
multiple hands that can be swapped out (holding sword, wand or open
hand). You can read more about this figure at the Good Smile <a href="http://www.goodsmile.info/en/product/4370/Nendoroid+Link+The+Wind+Waker+ver.html" target="_blank">page link</a>.
His face also can be removed and swapped out with other faces (included
with the figure). Based upon the poses shown on the Good Smile page I
see four different faces.<br />
<br />
Good Smile figures usually come with great display stands similar to the one shown in the photo's that make displaying them in various poses easier as well. <br />
<br />
I'll definitely be saving up for this little guy.<br />

<br />
When shopping for Good Smile
products (figma or nendoroid) you will encounter bootleg versions. I
spent a lot of time trying to find a Sonic Nendoroid for my son for a decent price that was the official product. Most bootleg versions have looser parts (parts fall off easily) and the paint application isn't as good. Shopping online can be very difficult because one has to rely on the seller's photo's. Whenever possible contact the seller before making the purchase.<br />
<br />
I thought that typically an official Nendoroid figure retails for about $50 US dollars but according to the Good Smile link this figure retailed for 4,000 Japanese yen (<span style="word-break: break-all;">$33.20 US dollars). </span><br />

Finally we have Good Smile's <a href="http://www.goodsmile.info/en/product/3575/figma+Link.html" target="_blank">figma Link</a>. Like the Nendoroid Link he comes with a stand. In regards to style and accessories this one is similar to the Jakks Pacific version (first shown). He has what appears to be the master sword, shield and scabbard. He stands about 5.5 inches tall. The details and paint of the Good Smile figma figure are better than the Jakks Pacific version (to be fair though I'm comparing a $9 figure to a $30-$50 figure).<br />
<br />
The figma Link has two faces that can be changed (calm face and action face). He has very good articulation AND has parts that can be swapped out (face and hands) to help with different poses. Some hands are open and others are closed to hold accessories. Even the toe of his boot is articulated and can be bent. Also the back of his "cap" can be rotated to be trailing behind in any direction. <br />

I'm still learning about Good Smile products and retailers. Here is a direct link to Good Smile's order closing dates <a href="http://goodsmile-global.ecq.sc/cartclose" target="_blank">click here</a>. I'm assuming that one can purchase directly from Good Smile IF ordering before the closing date (much like a pre-order?)<br />
<br />
At the moment (creation of post) it appears that both Good Smile versions of Link are only available from 3rd party vendors.<br />
<br />
I have NEVER made a purchase with the following two vendors but I'm told that these are reliable vendors that deal with Good Smile products. In the future these will be three sites that I will consider (shop at your own discretion):<br />
<ul>
<li><a href="http://www.amiami.com/" target="_blank">http://www.amiami.com/</a></li>
<li><a href="http://ekizo.mandarake.co.jp/shop/en/" target="_blank">http://ekizo.mandarake.co.jp/shop/en/</a></li>
<li> <a href="http://otakumode.com/" target="_blank">http://otakumode.com/</a></li>
</ul>
<br />
If making a purchase from Tokyo Otaku Mode <b>Please consider helping me buy using my invite link</b> that should give me $5 for inviting new members and <b>save YOU $5</b> as well. Here's the invite link (hope it works) <a href="https://otakumode.com/invite/32909c" target="_blank">https://otakumode.com/invite/32909c</a> <br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Series 4 is here and includes two great new additions! Waluigi is a great
looking figure and nicely compliments Wario but it is Baby Bowser or
Bowser Jr. that is my favorite! </div>
<br />
<a name='more'></a><b>Knex: Super Mario: Series 4 Mystery Bags</b><br />
<span id="goog_1851660318">Pieces: Varies per bag (only includes 1 figure with no additional builds or display stands)<br />
Retail: $3.99 (US)<br />
Ages: 6+<br />
released August 2014</span><br />
Series 4 includes seven figures:<br />
Bom-Omb, Toad (green), Donkey Kong, Mario, Luigi, Waluigi and Bowser Jr.<br />
<br />
Several are repeats that have been available before in a set, blind bag series or part of a 3-pack.<br />
<br />
<b>Repeats:</b><br />
<ul>
<li>Mario</li>
<li>Luigi</li>
<li>Donkey Kong</li>
</ul>
<b>Repeats but with minor changes:</b><br />
<ul>
<li>Toad with green spots and vest (first time in green)</li>
<li>Bob-Omb with charred tip on fuse (previously released as mystery figure in Fire Mario, Hammer Bros 3-pack). The previous version had a plain white fuse without the charred tip.</li>
</ul>
<b>New appearances!</b><br />
<ul>
<li>Waluigi </li>
<li>Bowser Jr (or Baby Bowser) </li>
</ul>
Bob-Omb and Toad are the Common ones<br />
Mario, Luigi and Donkey Kong are the Rare ones<br />
Waluigi and Bowser Jr are the Elite ones<br />
<br />
My son and I already have at least one Mario, Luigi, Toad, Bob-Omb and Donkey Kong so it was Waluigi and Baby Bowser that we were determined to find. We soon realized that "rare" means fairly easy to find and "Elite" means super difficult to find. Over the course of several weeks and many visits to nearby Wal-Mart stores we managed to find 1x Baby Bowser and 2x Waluigi. Several of the cases that we searched through we actually cut the tape on ourselves (definitely new cases that had not been cherry picked). We never found more than one each of Waluigi and Baby Bowser in the same case. Apparently there is only ONE Waluigi and ONE Baby Bowser in each case!<br />
<br />
I'm pleased that Bob-Omb is a common figure because I really think that many will want multiples of him to create an army of Bob-Ombs. I think making Toad (with green) a common figure was a good choice also because many are probably searching for each different Toad figure to complete their collections. However I think Waluigi and Baby Bowser should have been easier to find. They should have included at least 2 of each in each case instead of 1 each.<br />
<br />
<b>Good news:</b><br />
Often Knex releases figures more than once in sets or mystery bags or 3 packs so if you can't find a Waluigi or Baby Bowser now in mystery bags hopefully you will be able to purchase one in a set or 3 pack in the future. I hope... only hoping.. I don't have any news of upcoming sets. <br />
Also I can tell you some of the codes to identify the figures:<br />
<ul>
<li><b>1st number underlined (either Mario or Luigi.</b>. I wasn't interested in these and forgot which was which)</li>
<li><b>1st number underlines TWICE (Waluigi)</b> feel for long legs and pointy shoes if you want to double check</li>
<li><b>2nd number underlined (either Mario or Luigi</b>.. I wasn't interested in these and forgot which was which)</li>
<li><b>3rd number underlined (Baby Bowser)</b> will feel similar to Donkey Kong with point of hair on top and widespread legs. Be careful feeling for the hair on top of his head because Baby Bowser's hair on top is soft and could possibly be broken off while Donkey Kong's is much more spiky and made of a harder material. Be careful also because Donkey Kong and Baby Bowser's body shape and size are similar. </li>
<li><b>5th number underlined (either Donkey Kong of Toad</b>. Not interested in these) Toad is very easy to find though. Simply feel for the very round hat on his head with a smaller half sphere attached that is his head</li>
<li><b>6th number underlined (either Donkey Kong of Toad</b>.. see above)</li>
<li><b>7th number underlined (Bob-Omb)</b> VERY easy to find because his body is a HUGE round ball and you will find there is a huge abundance of him in most stores which I find sad because he is a great little figure. He is one of my favorite minions or henchmen released thus far.</li>
</ul>
I'll try to post more images of figures and parts in the future.<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I don't often get excited by proposals on LEGO IDEAS. When I do, I have
noticed it is most often because I respond very favorably to the licensed merchandise that the set corresponds with. For example consider X-Men:
X-Mansion proposed by DarthKY and Glennbricker. I love the X-men and
would love to have more X-men minifigs. AND it is a very cool looking
structure to build and display with other LEGO structures. Consider the
Adventure Time proposals by Jazlecraz, various Doctor Who proposals, Scooby Doo proposals or
Zelda proposals by various people. All of these have one thing in common. They are all
characters that I would love to see in LEGO form because I was already a
fan of the characters. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Nick Royer has created a proposal that does NOT include licensed characters that DOES excites me greatly. I love the ship and the characters. </div>

<b>Why am I excited about this proposal?</b><br />
<br />
1. It does not involve licensed merchandise (lower price for the parts and product... more for your money)<br />
2. It looks like it would be fun to build<br />
3. It consists of interesting parts or parts in interesting colors (both the ship and the minifigures). When I purchase a set for myself it is usually because I want to build the set and either display it or take it apart and use the parts for my own creations OR I simply want the parts. I think I would enjoy building this one.<br />
4. It looks like it would be a lot of fun for young fans to play with. Nick Royer has provided the audience with enough information to make the characters seem to have a personality but at the same time Royer has left room for the consumer to create their own stories about them encouraging greater creativity among the young builders. I still remember playing with GI Joe figures when I was younger. For me it was never GI Joe vs the Cobra. It was always MY story with MY characters. The toys were simply the medium.<br />
5. It would not be expensive for the company to manufacture and market. I don't see a lot of new parts that would require new molds and as I mentioned earlier it does not involve licensed merchandise.<br />
<br />

<br />
Sandtrooper and Dewback. When I heard news of a new Mos Eisley Cantina set I was most excited about the Dewback. I missed out on the earlier Dewback released in Mos Eisley Cantina 4501 ($29.99 and released in 2004). <br />

<br />
This updated Dewback is much more detailed than the original and looks great.<br />
<br />
Mouth opens and closes. Unfortunately the mouth is the only moving part on the entire Dewback. I wish that either the legs or head moved. Imagine the fun that could have been had with a removable Dewback head! Builders would have had a large reptilian head that they could have attached to builds.<br />
<br />
I would have gladly sacrificed a little bit of detail for removable parts like the T-Rex in Dino: T-Rex Hunter 5886 set.<br />

Still I have to admit the Sandtrooper looks great astride his Dewback steed.<br />

Like the original Dewback the "saddle" can be removed and replaced with LEGO parts to cover the space for the saddle.<br />
<br />
The harness piece may serve useful in creating Mocs. <br />

Set includes 1x updated Sandtrooper. He is slightly different than the 2x Sandtroopers that appeared in Droid Escape 9490 (Squad Leader and Sergeant).<br />
<br />
This version has more sand on the front of the helmet, what appears to be a "radio" on chest and NO printing on the feet. Both 9490 Sandtroopers had printing on the legs AND feet.<br />
<br />
I am not bothered by the lack of printing on the feet. Some newer LEGO minifigs have too much detail in my opinion. <br />

The cloth pauldron is black. The earlier Sandtroopers from 9490 had 1x orange pauldron and 1x white pauldron.<br />
<br />
There was an earlier Sandtrooper in Luke's Landspeeder 8092. The Sandtrooper from 8092 had no sand detail but it did have a black pauldron. The pauldron and backpack was the only things that distinguished the 8092 Sandtrooper from regular Stormtroopers of the time.<br />

To the best of my knowledge Sandtroopers have appeared in four LEGO sets:<br />

<li>Imperial Landing Craft 7659 (year 2007)</li>

<br />
Bith band members<br />
Figrin D'an and the Modal Nodes<br />
<br />
From what I've read the number of the band members changed from time to time having as many as seven members at some point. <br />

<br />
I think three is a good number of band members to include with the set (since more probably would have increased the set price)<br />
<br />
Each band member minifigure is exactly the same except for the instruments.<br />
<br />
I can't wait to use one of these great looking head pieces in a space/alien MOC.<br />
<br />
I predict that the value of the Bith minifigs will increase in the future after the set is discontinued.<br />

Han Solo<br />
<br />
He has appeared in over 20 different sets with many different variations. <br />
<br />
This is a great looking variation with lots of nice printing on the torso and legs. It appears to be the same variation that is available in 75030 Millennium Falcon (Microfighter series). I don't own 75030 so I can't be certain but based upon all pictures that I've seen and the reviews that I read he is the same. <br />

Luke Skywalker<br />
<br />
Luke may have even more variants than Han Solo. I'm not going to attempt to count the many different variations but there are easily at least twenty different variations (probably +25)<br />
<br />
The head, torso and legs are different than the Luke minifig available in 7965 Millennium Falcon. <br />
<br />
I haven't fully decided if I like his face or not. Sometimes I think that it has too many lines (details) making him appear older than he should but at other moments I like it.<br />
<br />

I do like that it is double sided with 2x expressions. Like Han he
has both a serious and smiling expression (although they are different
than Han's).<br />
I really do like the torso and legs. GREAT printing on both. I love that the legs have both black and tan details printed on them. While it may have been easier to print both with black I think that the tan lines on his knees look great.<br />
<br />
This particular hairpiece has been used before (in a few recent sets such as 7965 Millennium Falcon) and I really like it. It is perfect for Luke.<br />

Ben Kenobi (or Obi-Wan Kenobi)<br />
<br />
Obi-Wan has been released in many many variants as well. I think this one is my favorite thus far of older Obi-Wan (Star Wars episode IV onwards). I still haven't decided which is my favorite version of Obi-Wan from the Clone Wars era. He's definitely one of my favorite characters from the Clone Wars being Anakin's trainer (referring to him as Anakin's "master" sounds so demeaning doesn't it).<br />
<br />
I really like the face printing on this one. It unfortunately only has one expression (not double sided) but I really like the beard detail and gentle expression of his eyes.<br />
<br />

The torso printing is fantastic and has back printing as well with the hood printed on the back. <br />
<br />
The brown part on the leg assembly don't match up perfectly though with the torso. I've seen this on 2 out of 2 personally and others report the same thing. I have a feeling that this variant of Obi-Wan will be a little overlooked now and later he will be in higher demand. <br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Closing</span><br />
The set contains 8 minifigures (plus the dewback) at a price of $69.99 with a piece count of 616. Luke, Han, Obi-wan and the Sandtrooper minifigure have been released several times before so they aren't incredibly rare. They are very nice variants though that cannot be purchased in other sets (unless this is the same Han Solo that is available in the MicroFighters series). Greedo has been released only once before. I'm sure that he will be in high demand. The Bith band (or Bith musicians) have never been released before. I'm sure that they will be in high demand. The Dewback also has only been released once before.<br />
<br />
Most fans of Star Wars will want the Bith musicians, Greedo and the Dewback (with Sandtrooper). I'm sure many will purchase an additional Dewback and sandtrooper to build up an army. Some will probably buy additional Bith minifigures to create a larger band.<br />
<br />
The drawback to this set is that many fans of LEGO Star Wars probably already have a Luke, Han and Obi-Wan and won't need this variants unless they are collecting all variants or trying to find the newest variant of each. Those that don't want Luke, Han and Obi-wan will be essentially purchasing the set for five minifigures (Greedo, Sandtrooper and the Bith Band) plus the Dewback. This is essentially $11.66 per minifig and the Dewback. Of course you could look at it this way... $20 for the Dewback and $6 per minifig (Greedo, Sandtrooper and the Bith Band).<br />
<br />
<b>Pro's:</b><br />
Personally I really was really excited about the set for several reasons.<br />
<ul>
<li>Lots of tan parts (currently what I'm trying to stock up on)</li>
<li>Interesting parts for creating new minifigures (Bith heads, Greedo head & torso)</li>
<li>Dewback and Sandtrooper (while I don't have an army of Stormtroopers or Clonetroopers I have enjoyed purchasing various variants over the years)</li>
<li>While I hate paying $70 for a LEGO set it definitely could have been much higher (if the build had been larger). Consider the Jabba's Palace #9516. It had six minifigures plus Jabba the Hutt, Salacious Crumb (tiny little pet-like creature), B'omarr Monk and Han's carbonite block. I consider Jabba nearly the same as a Dewback (in price while I find the Dewback considerably more useful). Salacious cannot be used for minifigure parts and the B'omarr Monk is made up of very ordinary parts. Jabba's Palace retailed at $119.99 with 717 parts. </li>
</ul>
There will always be those that point out the faults in sets. I think that $70 for EIGHT well done minifigures AND a Dewback in a set with 616 pieces is pretty exciting. I always get excited when I see a creatures such as a Wampa, Tauntaun, Rancor or Dewback in LEGO form.<br /><br />
<b>Con's:</b><br />
I'm not complaining (much) but others may not like:<br />
<ul>
<li>purchasing variants of Han, Luke and Obi-wan to get Greedo, Bith musicians, a sandtrooper & Dewback</li>
<li>that the Dewback has only one moving part (its mouth). It would have been great if the head rotated of the legs moved.</li>
</ul>

ALL LEGO parts (including the minifigure and accessory shown here)<br />Only
one part is printed (excluding the minifig of course). This part is the
2x2 small slope with the Lion's eyes printed on it. There are 4 other
parts identical to this one but without the printing. <br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
(above) Parts that I consider very useful, new or somewhat rare. I purchased the
set for its joint parts that are also being used in Mixels. This set
contains 18 of these joint parts. It also includes 2x white parts that
are used for the Lion's teeth that were new to me. The Croc Legend Beast
(#70126) comes with 8x of these "teeth". The Eagle Legend Beast
(#70124) has 1x of these but in yellow and it is used for the Eagles
beak. Very interesting part that I hope to see more of in the future. </div>

<br />
Laval minifig with all included accessories (shoulder armor, sword and
translucent shield). Laval is the main character of the Chima TV series
and has been in several sets. This set does NOT include a cape although
I've seen him with a blue cape in other sets. I'm not sure if the
printing of the minifig is identical to other previous released Laval
minifigs or not. He has a double sided face which changes his expression
(around the eyes) even with the "helmet" on. <br />

I really like that shield. Could be a useful part for MOC's.<br />
<br />
I'm pretty sure that I've seen in any other sets before but this was the first one that I've acquired.<br />
<br />
Chest armor has ONE stud on the front and TWO on the back<br />

The Lion Legend build is capable of a lot of movement allowing a lot of convincing poses<br />
<br />
I love the shape created on the back of each leg with use of the half arch. <br /><br />I think the grey parts on its shoulders are supposed to be armor which would be more apparent with stickers applied.<br />
<br />

Check out the movement of the joints! I know the pose is silly but I
wanted to show how much the legs can be moved not only forward and back
but also in towards the body or outward (feet wide apart). I hope that
the photo does a better job conveying what I'm trying to say than my
rambling at this point. <br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<span style="font-weight: bold;">Closing</span><br /><br />I don't collect
Chima sets or minifigs although I do like the molds used for some of the
animal heads and the prints on some of the torso's are useful for mocs.
I also like the colors of some of the parts that have been used in some
of the previous sets. I have purchased some in the past for their parts
when I was able to find them discounted. I purchased this one for its
ball joint parts, "teeth" pieces and the parts used for its "claws".
These are parts that can also be found in many Mixel sets. I chose to
pay $9.99 for this Chima set rather than paying less for a Mixel set
because I like the light tan parts AND because it had more of the new
ball joints parts than most Mixel sets. I chose this particular Chima
Legend Beast because it had more joint parts than the crocodile and the
eagle. The set reminds me of some of the animal builds that have been
released in the past in the Creator Theme. <br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Pro's:</span><br />-Lots of Mixel joints and other new parts being used in Mixel sets <br />-121 parts (parts in colors that I like) and a minifigure for $9.99<br />-Very
good range of movement for a LEGO animal. My son has been using it for
stop animation and is presently building a scene to do more animation
with him. <br /><br />I'm very happy with the purchase. The joint parts
will be very useful when building robots, humanoid figures, and animals.
Maybe I can finally have a LEGO elephant by creating my own since I
don't have the LEGO elephant that was released in the past (LEGO adventurers theme released in 2003). <br /><br />It
was a very easy and quick but fun build. I think young ones will be able
to build it with no problems and will enjoy its great range of
movement. <br /><br />Its a great build to be used as either a display or to
be played with and would fit a variety of themes. It could easily be
modified into a griffin to be used with Castle Theme or as a giant lion
in other themes. <br /><br />I will probably buy either the Crocodile or
Eagle Legend Beast in the future if I can find them at a discounted
price or BOGO. I also plan to purchase a few Mixels (probably series 3)
in the future.<br />

One sticker sheet with some useful stickers for textures on otherwise bland walls. I don't really like applying stickers that often though so I did not use them. <br />

Closing:<br />
If you want lots of Dark grey parts this may be the set for you! A large majority of the parts are dark grey with some light grey, black and brown mixed in. This would be useful set for builders that like to create their own castles, or rocky terrains.<br />
<br />
Even at retail $69.99 (US) with its many grey bricks and parts and interesting minifigures it is a good set. I've seen offered as low as $51.99 (US) on Amazon quite often. Although its been offered at discounts lately I think that in the future after its been retired that it will be a highly sought after set because of the Azog, Radagast and Necromancer minifigures.<br />
<br />
Set has 6 minifigures + 1x skeleton + minifigure/sculpture. Depending upon your interpretation of minifigure it has either 6, 7 or 8 minifigures. While Azog was available before as a convention giveaway for most of us this is our first time that he has been available to us. Radagast and the Necromancer are exclusive to this set. Gandalf the Grey and 2x orcs are available in other sets but I welcome more orcs for army buildings.<br />
<br />
I most like...<br />
Lots of dark grey bricks and slopes for castle and rocky terrain building<br />
Black gates<br />
Sculpture minifigure (can be seen at <a href="http://cavortblock.blogspot.com/2014/04/lego-hobbit-dol-guldur-battle-79014_9.html" target="_blank">my minfigure review of this set click here to open in new window</a>)<br />

<a name='more'></a>This is my first entry to a LEGO MOC contest. Entries had to be a landmark of the Simpson's Springfield created in microscale with no more than 300 parts. I used exactly 300 pieces although my first finished versions greatly exceeded the 300 limit. I had to make a lot of changes and leave out some details that I wanted to include. It was quite a challenge. I chose the church because I thought the roofs would be a challenge. <br />
<br />
Below are some photo's that I referenced with links to where I found them. It was very difficult to find good photo references. It was even harder to find actual screenshots of the church in actual episodes. <br />

I really wanted to use finishing tiles on the small roofs and the parking lot surfaces but I had to remove the tiles so that I wouldn't exceed the 300 piece limit. <br />

The green roof was a real problem. The smaller brown roof would stay in place with a brick or plate attached to the bottom of it. Because the green roof is so steep the green plate kept falling off.<br />

Here is my solution to the problem. The pieces shown in this photo hold the green plate against the steep slope<br />

The large brown roof in the back caused me a lot of grief as well. This is my final solution. I didn't realize that brown slopes of this size (only 2 bricks tall) were this uncommon. I had to open a set that I had planned to keep sealed to extract a few more brown slopes. <br />

I love using SNOT techniques and have learned alot from building the mini-modulars set.<br />
<br />
The roof and arches posed some problems and I had to change things around until I was finally able to close the roof with no gaps.<br />
<br />
Here is the back wall with the roof removed<br />

My biggest problem was creating the slant of the two parts of the front roof (slopes standing and slopes on their side). The windows in the front needed to be different sizes and be positioned close to the roof. To complicate things even further I discovered that light tan (is it also called brick yellow?) of this size are fairly rare... and the SNOT technique that I used for the roof created a gap above the 2nd and 3rd window that could not be filled with a tile.<br />
<br />
The picture to the left is from an EARLIER version of my MOC (not my final version of 300 parts)<br />

<br />
I attempted to fix the problem by filling the gap with a "wall element 1x4x1"<br />
<br />
I was amazed that the width of the "wall" of this piece actually fits into the gap created in this case but it didn't stick out as far as the wall so the gap was still visible AND I had to build a platform to fit this piece into the proper spot for the gap which added to my piece count. <br />

Here is my final solution for my completed MOC<br />
<br />
I used to call the grey parts ("angular bricks 1x1") shown headlight pieces when was a child.<br />
<br />
When attached to the bottom of the portion of the wall shown in this manner the top of the wall portion is elevated so that the gap in the wall is filled completely!!!<br />

<br />
<br />
Stained glass windows consumed a large portion of my piece count.<br />
<br />
I considered leaving the windows empty (not depicting the stained glass) but I felt that they were too important for this building.<br />
<br />
In the beginning I used plate pieces which I think looks great because there are more small parts making up the windows but this greatly increases the piece count so I had to switch to bricks and less colors in each window <br />
<br />
The windows on the front wall were done with simple bricks. I had to use two 1x1 and one 2x2 because using four 1x1 bricks in each window took pieces. I didn't have any 1x2 red translucent bricks so I used the 2x2's <br />

<br />
My next to last version had far too many parts with stained glass windows using translucent plates or bricks stacked on top of each other so I had to experiment with different ways to create stained glass windows.<br />
<br />
Here are the 7 windows of the back portion of my finished version. The actual church on the TV show had more than 7 windows here but I had to simplify things for a microscale version.<br />
<br />
I used translucent panel pieces that are two bricks high. I used these panels and 1x1 bricks and plates and placed them on their side to create the windows that you see here. I like that the variety that is created with the thin plates, bricks and panels. This allows a greater variety in sizes of window fragments and allowed me to keep my piece count low.<br />
<br />

These colorful windows are held in place by the 2 clear panels that are shown here on either side. The tallest window is held in place be the "corner" brick.<br />

<br />
First portion dropped into place behind the clear panel<br />

<br />

Second smaller portion dropped into place. The one long clear panel holds both portions in place<br />

It consists of two of these detailed bricks on their side<br />
<br />
One of my favorite details in my finished version is the pink welcome mat. I took artistic liberties to add the mat. Pink is a very common color for carpets on the Simpsons so I felt it was appropriate to use pink here. I like the little splash of color that it adds to the finished MOC.<br />

Early version (NOT final version)<br />
I thought this would be the final version... but after doing a piece count I realized I had used too many parts.<br />
<br />
I really wanted to used this base but it would require too many parts<br />
<br />
I also really like the windows using a SNOT technique but these too required too many parts.<br />

Another picture of the above early version from another angle<br />
<br />
I had planned to use tiles to create a parking lot on either side and in the back and then create stained glass windows in this version but after estimating the parts needed to do so I started over again. I began the final version by building a smaller and simpler base<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />

Here are all of the parts including minifigures and the few extra parts that remain after completing the builds. It was the dark blue that caught my eye before buying the set with yellow that caught my eye when I first saw the set. <br />

Here are the three minifigures with their accessories and weapons.<br />
<br />
They are (from left to right) <span id="goog_1851660318">Sakaaran soldier, Star-Lord, Nova Corps officer</span><br />

I couldn't resist trying to pose Star-Lord so that it looks like he is flying. <br />

<br />
Star-Lord (Peter Quill)<br />
Perhaps the main character of the Guardians of the Galaxy team (even though the favorite of many may be Rocket Raccoon). The members of Guardians of the Galaxy that are currently available in LEGO sets are Star-Lord (2 versions), Rocket Raccoon, Drax the Destroyer, Gamora and Groot.<br />
<br />
I love that he comes with both a helmet AND hairpiece. The set includes two identical weapons (element guns), one infinity stone (silver sphere) and two yellow 1x1 round bricks to pose him as though he is flying.<br />

<br />
Nova Corps Officer<br />
<br />
Flies the main ship build included in the set and his accessory is a pair of handcuffs.<br />
<br />
I think I like Star-Lords helmet just a little better but this one is nice.<br />
<br />
I LOVE the printing on his torso. It will work well for MOC's<br />

This is a great looking ship especially for the price of the set. It was difficult attaching transparent parts to the bottom to display it. I had to attach the transparent parts much closer to the front that I wanted but it does the trick allowing me to photograph the ship with the rear parts in open position. <br />

The transparent parts that I used to hold the ship up unfortunately get in the way when photographing it from this angle.<br />

This is a good angle for the ship. From this view it reminds me of a squid. <br />

For $19.99 retail (US) with 3 interesting minifigures and a nice spaceship build (the nova corp ship) its a good deal. I particularly liked the dark blue parts and even a few random darker red parts, interesting weapons for microscale MOCs (interesting shapes), and the minifigs parts for constructing other minifigs. If you are a fan of Guardians of the Galaxy or seeking the particular parts in this set it retails at a fair price.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b>Pros:</b></div>
Fair price<br />
Interesting minifigs (very detailed with interesting print designs)<br />
Weapons of both the Sakaaran and Star-lord are interesting shapes/elements and new<br />
Nova Corp Ship is an interesting design<br />
Both heroes and villains have a vehicle which increases play possibilities for young fans<br />
<br />
<b> Cons:</b><br />
Sakaaran ship is rather "blah" but I'm sure it is based on the design of the ships to be used in the movies (not the fault of the LEGO designer) and for the price of the set I don't think we should complain<br />
Set reminds me very much of an army builder set. The inclusion of Star-Lord presents problems in this case. Those building an army of Sakaaran and Nova Corp soldiers will have multiples of Star-Lord (send them to me please ;-) )<br />

I'm updating an older post. Somehow I uploaded the pics but never went back and added text (my least favorite part. <br />
My son and I went to our first trip to a LEGO store. It was in a neighboring state and we drove all the way there with the sole purpose of buying LEGO.<br />
<br />
I've created the post mainly to show how I packed the LEGO into the PAB container. At the time of the visit containers this size were somewhere between $16-18 each.<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a>For those that have never visited a PAB brick wall basically there is a wall with LEGO elements (parts and colors divided into different bins by parts (colors and types). The elements that are available change. I'm guessing its items that LEGO has a surplus of for whatever reason. Customers pay the price that I mentioned for as many LEGO elements as they can fit into the cup. There is also another smaller cup (lower price) but the larger cup is the better value. IF one can find parts that interest them this is the cheapest way to purchase LEGO elements (usually cheaper than ebay, bricklink, LEGO shop@home PAB, and LEGO bricks&pieces).<br /><br />

I heard some LEGO stores are a little more forgiving than others as to how overflowing the cups are permitted.<br />
<br />
The staff at the LEGO store that we visited in Ohio were incredibly nice.<br />
<br />
They taped the lid onto the top of this one for me. <br />

I've watched several video tutorials online demonstrating how to fit more LEGO elements into the cups.<br />
<br />
All of the parts that you see in the photo on the left fit into the one cup! I'll show you how I packed all of those into one cup further down.<br />
<br />
Packed loosely into cups wastes space. To the left you can see the cup full of loose parts AND the parts that I was able to fit into the cup by packing them more carefully.<br />

(LEFT photo) The left pile are the parts that I showed packed "loosely" into the cup. The right pile is the parts that didn't fit into the cup when I packed it "loosely". Of all the parts shown in the photo is it 1/3 or 1/4 that didn't fit into the cup? Packing the PAB cups carefully can significantly increase your value. <br />

On the bottom of the cup there is a raised spot for the stud on the lid to fit (so that you can stack the PAB cups). There is a ring of space at the bottom on the cup.<br />
<br />
FIRST fill this "ring" space with as many SMALL parts as you can. Do this until the level is flush with the top of the raised "stud" space at the bottom of the cup. <br />

I apologize. The photo's aren't in the correct order.<br />
<br />
Don't add the purple parts that I've shown in the cup YET.<br />
<br />
First you want to make "circle" walls with bricks as in a similar fashion that I've shown in the NEXT photo.<br />
<br />
Then they will be stacked as I've shown (left photo). Notice the layer at the bottom is smaller than the top layer. This mimics the shape of the cup so that little space is wasted. <br />

Here how I made each "layer" of basic bricks. They were then stacked as I showed in the above photo.<br />
<br />
NEXT (next photo) stack these "layers" into the cup.<br />
<br />
Then (next photo) fill the remaining space around the "layers" of basic bricks. I kept piling small plates and tiles (1x1 or 1x2 sizes) onto the top and then SHAKE the cup slightly so that these small parts work their way down into the cup. Keep doing this until you have filled the remaining space around the "layers" of bricks. <br />

On top of the placed the final "layer" of bricks. Because there is a final pocket of empty space in the "stud" part of the lid I added some more parts on top.<br />
<br />
The lid was shut and taped down. <br />

Here's another cup that I filled. Again... the pile on the right is the parts that did not fit into the PAB cup when I packed the cup "loosely".<br />
<br />
By packing everything carefully I was able to fit everything that you see in the photo into ONE cup. <br />

As I did with the first cup I first filled the "ring" at the bottom of the cup. Then stacked "layers" on top of each other and packing tiny parts around the edges.<br />
Repeating until I reached the top of the cup. <br />

At the top I placed some of the horses best that I could and then filling in the space around the horses with small parts. I of course occasionally shook the cup slightly so that parts would trickle down into the empty spots. <br />

I wish that I had more time to organize the photo's into a more logical sequence and to plan my written instructions but I don't.<br />
<br />
I do hope that my experience helps others though. Please don't hesitate to comment if you have questions.<br />

As always thanks for reading. Best wishes. <br />

<b>Verdict:</b><br />
Lots of odd parts and parts in not so common colors. I really like the yellowish green, new dark red and Azure blue (or is it dark azure?). Oh and of course the blue-violet cocoon element that currently is only available with Galaxy Squad sets.<br />

At $39.99 retail and with 3 minifigures and 311 parts I prefer the sets at a discounted price. I managed to catch it on sale recently and I'm very happy with it.<br />
<br />
Don't wait too long though. LEGO shop at home just days ago discounted ALL Galaxy Squad sets. I believe they are being retired. If you want some buy them now before they are gone.<br />
