No, no, no, no, no...the minifigs!
The costumes in the movie look GREAT...just like they should. But the
minifigs look NOTHING like the movie...look at 'em! Monotone grey torso,
hips and legs. Capes with STARS. They look NOTHING like the movie! They look
like they are wearing '70s polyester leisure jump-suits.
I've kvetched about this before here in .harrypotter, back when we were
looking at the Creator box. (http://news.lugnet.com/harrypotter/?n=220)
There is NO reason for them to look so...well, WRONG.
If I could make a figure that looks like the costumes in the
movie(http://news.lugnet.com/harrypotter/?n=108), and NOT get paid to do so,
you'd think LEGO could get a bit closer, right?
