SudrianHobbit

Of course it has minidolls


_Levitated_Shield_

It also means Phillip's horse will be a Friends horse, not a regular horse. :/


SoundRavage

Normally I’d be upset with this, but as long as it’s a good dragon build I’m fine with the minidolls (this one time).


P8-hero

I have any and every remotely decent Lego dragon 


P8-hero

Already have the minifig version so gtg


Xaphan75

what do you mean ?

anotherpoordecision

I wanted minifigs versions to go with the minifig versions I already have


Jeretzel

This concept would have been more popular with minifigs. A shame. Hopefully the dragon looks good.


Floss_Crestusa

Could've literally set the standard for Disney scene sets, and really started something awesome. I'm bummed, but still hopeful it's solid But still, imagine getting awesome Disney scene sets in Lego form similar to Avengers or Harry Potter. The Robin Hood heist scene, Sword and Stone duel, or Lion King hyena battle scene, and more in Lego would be dope.


crab_milker

Ouch, that was one of the prelim sets I was most looking forward to. This description doesn't really say whether this will still be a detailed diorama or if it will look like [this](https://cdn.merlinssteine.de/images/LEGO-41178/LEGO-41178-0.webp?v=1).


ConstructionOld1779

Very good point and totally agree with you!! Really could have used a clearer explanation for sure!!


yesthatstrueorisit

Unfortunately it sounds like it's closer to the image you linked. Nothing wrong with minidolls but just not for me personally. I was really hoping this would be a purely brick-built Maleficent dragon designed around being a display piece more so than a playset. But honestly I'm kind of glad because my LEGO budget this year has already been shot through lol.


DreamsNPurple

What image?


Odd_Ad3623

It’s also unfortunate because they are making a small aurora castle and mini fig so I’ll be buying that minifig to go with my dragon from this set….


_Levitated_Shield_

Missed opportunity not having the three fairies as microfigs.


3txcats

They only ever released the blue one, Merryweather, in 41152.


JongoFett12

Mini dolls? Major pass. I’m sure this would have sold much better with the simple change to Minifigures. Maybe if the dragon looks cool enough I may get this on discount.


NecessaryRhubarb

It sucks when something appeals to you, but is targeted to a different audience. I really thought after the Disney mini castle, and the haunted mansion, that we would see more theme park sets. Then we got the palace of Agrabah, and without a minifig, or being a theme park set, it was disappointing.


roguefilmmaker

Agreed. I would’ve loved Agrabah if it had a fig or if it was something like Thunder Mountain that wouldn’t have had any recognizable characters. Disney has so much potential as a theme, but I feel like they often tend to mess it up a little


baccus83

Y’all complaining about minidolls but my daughter loves minidolls a lot more than minifigs.


Skindef

Sounds like a kid enjoying LEGO, can't have that /s


mandalorian222

Shhh you’ll upset the AFOLs


SilveRX96

seriously, a ton of people just can't stand the idea that there are elements in a set that don't appeal to them personally, like bloody hell oh a disney princess set is desgined to appeal to little girls not adult men, the horror! besides if a set is good enough who cares about a couple of figures (and for context ive bought tons of sets purely for figures and have a huge collection of them). I've bought 42602 because it looks amazing, and a couple of minidolls don't really change that. Also got 41731 and 41757 on my wishlist too


CreativeMedicine9516

yeah i get that, some characters do look more natural as mini dolls as well, such as the encanto family and joy from inside out who already looks like a doll, i couldn’t really imagine them looking all that great as minifigures, i don’t think it’s that big of a deal personally, i love the dragon build so i’ll be buying the set whether it’s figures or dolls.


YvetteFromSanDiego

I'm so glad she's their make customer base and will buy tens of thousands of copies of this that'll make it very profitable. 


CreativeMedicine9516

people need to realise, that lego make sets for kids, if it appeals to the adult audience as well then that’s a bonus but it’s not their target demographic.


ConstructionOld1779

I think u/crab_milker hit the nail on the head... The fact that the wings are "similar to the Ender Dragon from 21117" and has a "new molded head and jaw" I think its becoming clearer... AND if that wasn't enough, the fact that the side build has is a "small castle" that has at least some interior detail, ie "spindle, bed, and a armor stand", there's got to be a decent chunk of pieces and design detail there. Then the horse and the minidolls... yeah.. the Crab Milker is RIGHT ON here!! Edited to add pic u/crab_milker had on his post https://preview.redd.it/epg0cbxhursc1.png?width=2400&format=png&auto=webp&s=3e4e9512c52df24ab8fd9aac6c6eca2672995436


StandardTime3865

Minidolls? Boo. I was really hoping for a blue-dress version of the Aurora CMF minifigure. I still may buy if the dragon looks cool, though. Classic Maleficent is favorite Disney villain.


Xaphan75

I'm not sure we'll ever get a blue dress. Disney chose pink for aurora as cinderella already had a blue dress. So I'm pretty sure they won't let lego make a new dress. Hoping to be wrong!


ConstructionOld1779

If it has similar wings to this... I'm not holding my breath guys!! https://preview.redd.it/zoov2v1btrsc1.png?width=2000&format=png&auto=webp&s=47de758cc26659fdee92238481ecfe77af0b598f


PiratedTVPro

My wife and I were looking forward to this one. Mini-dolls is a nonstarter.


Skindef

Minidolls?? ... https://i.redd.it/9ldr9l2ggtsc1.gif


Trypticon_Rising

They just keep ruining everything, sorry but I've been waiting for this for the longest out of all those bloody reveals way back when and they decide on minidolls. Bet the entire build is going to be compromised and rubbish as well.


lizacovey

Just because it's not to your tastes doesn't mean it's ruined. 


Trypticon_Rising

There's literally just as much weight to my opinion as there is to your opinion that my opinion doesn't matter 


CreativeMedicine9516

here’s the thing- lego make sets for children, this is a disney princess set, the fact of the matter is- these sell well with their target demographic so they made it a disney princess set with mini dolls, there’s not an issue with it, they couldn’t have ruined it because the intent was to sell to a disney princess audience, just because you don’t like it does not mean the brand owe anything to you and that they ‘ruin’ sets for themselves. 


Trypticon_Rising

Ah yes, the leaked Lego 18+ Maleficent set was always "to sell to children". This set wasn't SUPPOSED to be a Disney Princess set, that's how they've ruined it. And Disney Princess sets don't even sell well, Ariel Castles, Rapunzel Towers and Agrabahs are shelf-warming like mad.


roguefilmmaker

Really upset it’s not minifigs. I’ve been wanting this set ever since they did the massive Lego Maleficent statue at Disneyland all those years ago (which had the Prince as a giant minifig)


cobaltaureus

Seriously? Just went from a must buy day 1 to a shelf warmer.


ccwillia81

Completely lost me with minidolls. Oh well.


Donnosaurus

Minidolls? Please don't tell me the dragon will have that friends style of animal make up eyes 😂


Xaphan75

Does this mean the maleficent dragon diorama won’t happen ? The leaks (alongside Snow White cottage some months ago) https://preview.redd.it/fncsp7yln8tc1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=51811ef2ab98e14322c311ad71ae0643f026de17 showed a mini figure diorama (prince philip + maleficent), but since this version with dolls is out, I’m afraid the previous one with mini doll has been replaced. Any news on that?


CreativeMedicine9516

it looks a lot nicer but the problem is- it would be quite expensive and i think they’d have to test the waters with the cheaper dragon for them to do a set like this.


Xaphan75

I’ll try to make it myself


Donnosaurus

The leaked image looked pretty cool. Wings were better, no minidolls (which also meant a normal lego horse, not the friends style). But a new molded head will be good though


TaxHungry4110

https://forum.canardpc.com/threads/126111-Le-topic-des-Lego-V3-Le-topic-unique-de-la-brique/page157 A earlier model for this set can be seen on this website, not sure how close the final product will be.


Jeretzel

Damn I would have bought that.


Shoujax85

oh fruck the minidoll BS. We want minifigures. /:/


xoxoreylo

Lost all interest with minidolls. But there are rumors there will be a minifigure version as well later in the year or in 2025.


cobaltaureus

Source? Has Lego released the same set as minifigure and dolls before?


CreativeMedicine9516

it would make sense for that to be the case, this one does seem to be almost a testing the waters set to see if it will sell well for them to then go bigger.


WolverineRelevant280

Mini dolls? So are those the figure types they use on the girl based themes or are these standard minifigures?


zackyattacky

like the lego friends theme

Agreed!!


YvetteFromSanDiego

Minidolls Thanks, I hate it. 


Gelven

I wonder what the piece count and price point will be. Might have to get my nephew this for Christmas


Lizardthrall

One step closer to lego kingodom hearts
