It was only last week that LEGO announced the LEGO Disney Collectible Minifigures Series 2 (71024) and they will be available starting on May 1. Some of our fellow European RLFM outlets have started receiving their review copies and we now have some new details of the set. As far as the distribution. Apr 30, 2019 Series 2 of the Disney LEGO Collectible Minifigures comes out tomorrow, and we've got you covered with this hand Feel Guide to help you track down a complete set!
The original series of Disney Minifigures were super popular, so it’s no surprise that LEGO have released a second series.There are 18 minifigures in the series, from a mix of Disney properties. Here’s my in-depth look at all of them.But first – the all important box distribution. With a series of 18 basic maths hints at the possibility of three full sets and some extras.
Unfortunately that is not the case here. There are only two full sets, with numerous minifigures appearing four times per box. This isn’t quite as bad as having a single chase minifigure, but it’s still annoying. Minifigure CountsBox PositionsNormally I’d include a breakdown of the box positions to help you out when looking for your minifigures. Unfortunately my box had about 5 packets that came loose during transit and I’m not sure exactly where they came from.Now on to the minifigures. Steamboat Classics Classic MickeyIf you are a massive Disney fan but feel that the Steamboat Willie set is a bit expensive then you are probably going to be thrilled by this minifigure.
This vintage Mickey is essentially the same as the Ideas set version, just missing some silver accents. The printing is fantastic as is the moulded head. The hat is a seperate element that fits securely on. I like the addition of the steamboat steering wheel, but the technic pin connection detracts a little. Classic MinnieAnother nearly identical copy of the Steamboat Willie minifigure. Again Minnie lacks the silver accents of the Ideas version.
Ducktales HueyHuey features his classic red hat and shirt combo. The accessories include a printed book and printed tile. DeweyAs you’d expect, Dewey comes with a blue hat and shirt. His accessory is a slingshot, last seen with Bart Simpson.
LouieThe last of our three small ducks. Louie comes with a green hat and shirt as well as a flashlight.The three ducks are all identical except for the colour variations and accessories.
Each has short legs and a tail element. The fact that these are all the same and the accessories are small is going to make these a nightmare to feel for. ScroogeI absolutely love the moulded Scrooge head. It is fantastically detailed.
Scrooge also includes an awesome top hat that fits in a small hole (like those commonly found in minidoll hair pieces). Scrooge also includes a cane and coin. I feel like the coin should be gold rather than silver.
Chip & Dale ChipSome people have mixed feelings about the moulded heads but there is no way a minifigure like Chip would work any other way. Chip includes a nicely done acorn. DaleAnother fantastic moulded head including Dale’s bright red nose. Dale comes with a nut sack. He comes with a sack for nuts.Both Chip and Dale feature the new half size legs. It’s great to get these elements in new colours.As somebody who grew up with Chip and Dale as the Rescue Rangers I definitely feel like this is a bit of a missed opportunity. The torsos are nicely printed but it’s no Hawaiian shirt or jacket.
What could have been FrozenFrozen has had the minidoll treatment in the past, but minifigure purists now have an option. ElsaElse has some fantastic sparkly printing on the torso, arms and sloped skirt. Elsa’s hair piece is a soft rubbery material. She has a dual printed face – one normal and one winking. Elsa’s cape is a great piece but for me it stuck out rather than laying flat against the torso. Elsa has comes with a giant snowflake accessory. AnnaAnna has some wonderful printing as well as an awesome cloak.
Her hair is also soft rubber. Just like her sister Anna comes with a regular and wink faces. Anna comes with a reasonably new latern piece. AladdinWith a live action adaptation coming out this year it makes sense that LEGO would include some characters from Aladdin.
JafarJafar is all about the awesome headpiece. The dual printed face also does a great job of capturing the character. JasmineJasmine features her iconic blue outfit, including arm printing. I know it’s unrealistic but how great would it be if Jasmine came with Rajah? Instead she comes with a small white bird.
HerculesDisney’s Hercules isn’t as well loved as something like The Lion King but it certainly has it’s fans. HadesI wasn’t expecting to love like this minifigure as much as I do, but he’s awesome. The face printing is fantastic. The blue flame hair is attached to the head. HerculesAnother unexpectedly great minifigure. All of the parts here work.
The dual printed face, the hair piece, the cape, the printed shield. Nightmare Before ChristmasConfession – I have never seen The Nightmare Before Christmas. The context behind these minifigures is a bit lost on me.
SallyI really love the black flower accessory. Sally also has a great hair piece. Sally has a dual printed face but there’s barely any difference.
JackWhile I don’t know the character I can spot a cool minifigure when I see one. I love the details here, including the bat bowtie and the printed gift box. The Incredibles Edna ModeEdna has such an iconic look and the combined hair and glasses provide for a faithful recreation. Just don’t take that element off because she looks really weird without it. Dual printed face but with the hair piece on the only difference is the mouth.
Edna includes a teacup and bag. FrozoneIt seems Frozone found his super-suit. Nice printing and colours. He also comes with the hand blast elements which actually shoot out of his hands when pressed. I think they work more as a display thing than an actual play feature. Frozone also includes a round disc to stand on.
It makes it a bit hard to display him on the standard minifigure base. The Disney Series 2 Minifigures will be available in May.Thanks to LEGO for sending me a box.
