Most of these characters look great. The original Disney characters like Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck look just like their cartoon counterparts. They look somewhat like Lego® figures too, not as far from the standard mini-figures as the Angry Birds but not exactly like genuine Lego® figures either. The dress on Minnie Mouse is a particularly nice touch.

Peter Pan, Alice in Wonderland and Aladdin all look fantastic, as does Maleficient and Arial, however my favourite is Buzz Lightyear. With his space helmet and suit he looks exactly like he does in the movie, but he also makes for one dynamic Lego Minifigure. Other nice minifigure features are Aladdin’s hair with fez on top and Alice in Wonderland’s bottle and cake which are great accessories. They help identify her character immediately whilst keeping her well within believable Lego® minifigure parameters.

2016 has seen a lot of new releases from the Lego® group already and although these might not be the absolute coolest figures yet released, they are still pushing the bar pretty high. Look out for their exciting release in May and stay tuned to Brick Yourself’s latest releases to stay abreast of current Lego® news and find out exactly what we have to say regarding the investment value of these new figures in the near future.
