what are your most hated minifigs?


-James Walker

I hate the skeleton minifig, if it is a minifig.  Its too common, and I • dont
lke having a bunch of skeletons in my Lego town.

Ah, just have a big pile of dead dissidents in town, for an example to
others! (J/K, folks! I have a pile of skeletons on top of my monitor at
home!)

I have em on my monitor too! :)  They're holding hands.  About the town deal -
if you don't like em in your town, why put em there?  They're awesome minifigs
for what they're intended for, but no substitute for living, breathing ABS.

I think Selbuba is a good candidate, as well as Timmy, Dr. Cyber, and other
ones with the same face in other sets, and the freestyle minifig torsos.

Timmy and Cyber are the worst in my book.

Anyone remember Rob Dye's contest back in 97 on the funniest ways to kill a
Timmy?  I'd like to see that one dug up again :)
