Lego Disney Princesses

Recommended Posts

I couldn’t resist them... I bought the Aerial, Merida, and Rapunzel sets.

They’re absolutely fantastic, the figures are adorable, they come with their pets (or little brothers as bears) the sets were easy to build (I’m still scared of building larger sets after the horror that was the C3 Bat cave) and look super cute.

I’d really like a Mulan set (they could reuse a lot of Ninjago props for it) but since her Blu-ray already came out I’m sure it’s a ways off.

the only downside is Flynn Rider looks terrible as a friends minifig... it makes me sad that when if Jasmine gets made then Aladdin will probably look just as bad (I’m hoping the Beast would be a unique sculpt like Hulk if Belle got a set, but I’m anticipating disappointment in getting “Adam” with a mask or just getting all the sidekicks in place of a second figure)

(this is also the first time I’ve gotten to see a friends base in person, do they sell them in blind bags or anything? I need to get a couple of these to make some Monster High customs, they’re the perfect size next to the Universal Monster minimates)

I can understand going with the Lego Friends figures for the Princesses line. If Lego expands into Disney at large, I could see that license easily slipping into the standard minifig realm.

Well, there's these: http://www.amazon.com/Lite-Brix-Moonlight-Monsters-Mansion/dp/B00G116MWC

A double knock-off of both Lego Friends and Monster High. heh

I’ve seen those and they don’t really grab me, “Maia” in that set looks enough like Frankie Stein (not even default Frankie, but one of the variants) but that’s it. The rest are drab gray normal looking girls with nothing monstery about them. (also, I just now noticed these are called “Lite BRIX” was “Blox” taken?!)

I did however find a Hong Kong reseller selling 7 random Lego Friends minifigs (and I *MEAN* random, he has negative feedback for some of them having male heads and weird hair) for what breaks down to $1.30 each, so I bought 14 which should be a good start...

Went halfsies on the Tangled set ($40...sheesh) with my girl, but she loves it. She was upset it didn't come with that white horse but I tracked down a random Lego horse at a local Swap Meet for a $1.

It looks great in person.
