Those should be more firm goals of TLC, and if they use classic molds (...) (24 years ago, 21-May-01, to lugnet.harrypotter, lugnet.general, lugnet.dear-lego)

He is no more immobile than the LEGO Ghost figure, though, whose ghostly body prevented the minifig legs from moving, if the set bothered to include legs at all. (...)

Good points all, but there would be realy great play value in a new larger scale figure in minifig style, so new scale models could be made with a parent-child type dynamic...not phased out minifigs, just new scale opportunities (look what (...)

Hagrid's body did look like a brick in the box art for the PC game, but look at the pic of Hagrid posted by Monica Wilbur a few posts back - note his arm - that's a Creator-fig arm (and yes, that means his head/hair/beard will be one big (...)
