(...) That's why I think common-characters-only packs would be a great solution. The rare special characters are still in the big sets, yet you can get a lot of the basic people. (24 years ago, 2-Apr-00, to lugnet.dear-lego)

(...) I agree. We do NOT want 1000 copies each of (for example) Darth Vader, Anakin Skywalker, Luke Skywalker, Princess Strom, Queen Leonara, Willa the Witch, Basil the Bat Lord, the WW bad guys, or any other "personalized" and characterized minifig (...)

(...) I'd agree with this generally, EXCEPT, there is a tendency for the only female characters to be rare unique characters. Willa is about the only female I have seen that I don't want a bunch of (and she's a common figure - go figure). Give us (...) (24 years ago, 3-Apr-00, to lugnet.dear-lego)

(...) You're comparing Willa the Witch to every other female face? Every other female face could be used for anything. Willa definately can't. That is what makes her a bad mini-face. I have seen the close-up picture of the Queen and princess (I was (...) (24 years ago, 4-Apr-00, to lugnet.dear-lego)

Well, you might think you wouldn't mind, and perhaps you wouldn't; but perhaps you think you would because you DON'T have them (1). I have one of each and like them, yet if I had (...)

(...) Just a quick plug for one of my favourite small sets -- 1271/5905. The Gail Storm face is pretty near generic: the clone factor (as id'ed by Shiri) is still a bit of a problem, but you can use those features nearly anywhere and they seem to (...)

(...) Here's a better idea: Stop making all of the scarred/mustachioed/...lipsticked faces and go back to plain smileys. Then they can be either. Unless your women have hormone problems and your men are cross-dressers, it's hard to use today's (...) (24 years ago, 4-Apr-00, to lugnet.dear-lego)

(...) You're right, Gail Storm is great. I liek her face a lot, luckily only have two so no cloning problems yet. However, by saying Princess Storm I meant the Castle princess Storm, as appeared in 6071. She's truly awesome, I love her. The (...) (24 years ago, 5-Apr-00, to lugnet.reviews, lugnet.build.minifigs)

(...) Well I understand what you are saying. The way I look at it though is: Any face that doesn't have a microphone, hideous grin, eyepatch, monocle, or such is a generic face regardless of how detailed it is. If I can put it on a space person, (...) (24 years ago, 6-Apr-00, to lugnet.dear-lego)
