elbows...at this scale I think that would be possible.  I like the
minifig and want to see it continue...but these will make a nice
different addition to building possibilities.

P.S.  I still think it's WAY too much of a coincidence that the first
three Creator figs we saw looked like Harry, Ron and Hermione.  Maybe
Lego was THINKING of taking the HP sets in this direction and then
changed their mind...but still decided to use the development efforts
for this new line...it smells fishy to me...

I am wondering if these Creator figures are the same size range as Fabuland
figures?  [This would make them smaller than Mickey and Minnie, which would
be my preference.]  Does the head have the same pivoting  movement that a
Fabuland animal has?
Pictures remind me of the people headed Fabuland body figures but rounded
and *modernized* in a duplo(ish) body format.

Not available til April?  I am interested in owning at least a set or two to
see what they are about.  Got to admit Creator as the theme name is very
appealing.
