lego contest 71024 disney collectible minifigures series 2 2019

Let's go to a little contest that will allow one of you to win a complete set of 18 LEGO Disney characters (ref. 71024 - Series 2). To be honest, when sending the boxes to the various sites responsible for promoting this new series of bags, the distribution of the bags in the boxes seemed really (too) random with only two complete series out of the 60 bags. of the box.

LEGO had therefore returned a new box thinking that this questionable distribution was a mistake (it was not). So I have some sachets left and I finally took the time to sort this second box to offer you a new complete series to win, obviously including the much requested Riri, Fifi and Loulou.

To participate, it's always so simple: You look for the answer to the question asked and you enter this answer in the area of ​​the form below provided for this purpose. Prize draw at the end of the competition. No participation via comments.

Your contact details are only used in the context of this competition. I don't sell them to a spam box. As usual, this no-obligation competition is open to all residents of mainland France, DOM & TOM, Belgium, Luxembourg, and Switzerland.

Thanks to LEGO who regales via the endowment provided. The prize will be sent by me to the winner and by Colissimo followed with insurance and signature on delivery.

Good luck to everyone !

71024 lego disney collectible minifigures series 17

We continue to discover a little more closely the different characters of the second series of Disney minifigs to collect (ref. LEGO 71024) with a zoom on the last eight minifigures which join the 10 others I was telling you about. in the first part of the test.

If Jasmine already has a very advanced career at LEGO with several sets in which this character appears in mini-doll format, this is the first version of Jafar to be produced at LEGO. Many fans will certainly be delighted to be able to add these two minifigs to their collection which already includes a version of Aladdin and the Genie, two characters delivered in the first series of Disney collectible minifigs in 2016 (ref. Lego 71012).

Jafar's minifigure is overall very successful, even if we can regret the absence of Iago, the cunning parrot while Jasmine is delivered from her pet bird. On closer inspection, we can see that LEGO has chosen to use a torso for Jafar in Dark Red on which large black areas are pad printed. Result: The black of the torso is not as deep black as the bottom of the outfit which is tinted throughout.

Jafar's headdress is perfect, it falls perfectly on the character's shoulders, also equipped with epaulettes already seen in the Ninjago range. The reflection effect on the stone that adorns the headdress is striking and the scepter, already seen in the hands of the pharaoh from series 2 of collectible minifigs does the job.
Jasmine's minifigure is also very successful, but I still note a few annoying flaws. The skin tone on the figure's torso does not match perfectly with those of the girl's arms and head, and the white areas placed on the front side of the feet are not perfectly centered. More embarrassing in my eyes, the "wig" effect already seen on Elsa and Anna with a headdress which already equips Jasmine in mini-doll version and which, even nested correctly, leaves an unsightly space at the front of the minifigure.

No junction between the sleeves and the bust of Jasmine's outfit due to technical limitations that LEGO has not resolved to date: only a limited area of ​​the arms can be pad printed.

In a box of 60 sachets: 3 copies of Jafar and Jasmine.

71024 lego disney collectible minifigures series 24

Edna Mode and Frozone also join our collections and complete the inventory of minifigs based on the universe of the Incredibles after the figures of Mr. Incredible and Syndrome delivered in the first series of minifigs to collect Disney in 2016 (ref. Lego 71012) and the series of LEGO Juniors sets based on the second part of the saga marketed in 2018.

Edna Mode had also been the subject of an adaptation to the minifig format a little disappointing in the polybag bearing the reference 30615 offered in 2018 with the video game based on the animated film.

The character gains credibility and loyalty to his digital version with this new minifigure. The torso is more neutral, but the face of the minifigure with its glasses molded directly on the hair is really more convincing than the minifigure of the polybag 30615. Too bad the color Flesh a little too light glasses do not match perfectly with that of the head.

The Frozone minifigure was eagerly awaited by fans who had until now been content with the BrickHeadz version (ref. Lego 41613) of this character who was already shining by his absence in the three LEGO Juniors boxes sold in 2018.

The minifig is superb, it's flawless, but the relative simplicity of the character's costume will have made LEGO's job easier. If I had to pick up one detail, it would be the junction between the areas of different colors on the arms. This is approximate and LEGO still has to work on its bi-injection process to obtain a slightly clearer demarcation.

In a box of 60 sachets: 4 copies of Frozone and 3 copies for Edna Mode.

71024 lego disney collectible minifigures series 25

Jack Skellington and Sally have so far only had top honors in the LEGO BrickHeadz line of buildable figures (ref. Lego 41630). This was arguably insufficient for most fans of the animated film The Nightmare Before Christmas (The Nightmare Before Christmas).

The two characters are now making their entry into the world of minifigs with these interpretations that will probably divide fans. As with Anna and Elsa, the switch to minifig format erases all the grace of these skinny characters.

Here again, LEGO shows the full extent of its know-how by multiplying the techniques used and the result should meet the expectations of the most demanding fans. For those who are wondering, the bat-shaped bow tie is a unique piece.

The box supplied with Jack is nicely decorated and the cover is fitted. Inside, you can store the four snowflakes delivered. The white printed on the black torso does not match the slightly creamy white of the character's head but we will do with it. The arms are perfectly pad printed over the entire length of the almost flat outer area. The pattern of the pants stops at the limit from which LEGO can no longer really print in the hollow of the leg / foot junction. It's not very serious even if it helps to visually compact the character a little more.

Sally's minifigure is magnificent, there is the patchwork of fabrics that dresses the character. Two-tone injection of the limbs, perfect alignments of the different shades, printing on the forearms, everything is there. Unlike other characters' hair, Sally's hair is made of stiff plastic. As for Jack, it's up to everyone to see if the minifig format is adapted to the morphology of the character.

In a box of 60 sachets: 3 copies of Jack Skellington and Sally.

71024 lego disney collectible minifigures series 26

Finally, Hercules and Hades, two characters based on the animated film released in 1997, complete the inventory of this second series of collectible Disney minifigs. The two minifigs are very successful even if the only slightly silly look of Hades would have in my opinion gained from being a little more threatening.

Hercules is magnificent with his outfit faithful to the one seen in the animated film, his superb shield with impeccable pad printing and his blue cape with rounded edges.

I am less convinced by Hades, more precisely by the pad printing of the minifigure. The face is nicely executed but a little too comical for my taste and the junction between the gray torso and the black plinth of the figure is far from convincing with a blank stripe which visually detracts from the continuity of the outfit's pattern. More serious, the base is not wide enough to be perfectly aligned with the lower torso whose ends protrude ...

The base of the figurine, a unique piece, can be plugged into a plate or a classic piece thanks to the spaces left to slide the tenons. The blue flames that make up the character's hair are not removable and logically prevent having an alternative facial expression.

In a box of 60 sachets: 3 copies of Hercules and 4 copies of Hades.

Here's what I could tell you about these eight new minifigs from the second series of Disney characters to collect.

Overall, for this series, the results are very positive. The different characters will seduce several generations of fans of the different Disney universes and in the same series, there is something for the whole family. Like the previous one, this series of minifigs will sell without difficulty and fans are already waiting to know which characters will make up the next wave of minifigs ...

3.99 € per sachet, it is however a little too expensive for my taste and it seems to me more judicious to invest in a box of 60 sachets and to resell or share the second complete set supplied and the 24 additional sachets. By buying a box, Picsou, Riri, Fifi and Loulou come back to 12 € instead of 16 €. It's always taken ...

Note: During this second part of the test, a complete set of 18 characters (provided by LEGO) is brought into play. To participate in the raffle, simply post a comment on this article before April 13, 2019 at 23:59 p.m.. You have every right to disagree with me, this is not eliminatory.

Update : The winner was drawn and was notified by email, his nickname is indicated below. Without a response from him to my request for contact details within 5 days, a new winner will be drawn.

minifigure maddness preorder lego disney minifig series 2019

As you already know if you follow, there are usually only two complete sets of 18 characters in each box of 60 sachets of the second set of LEGO Disney collectible minifigs (LEGO ref. 71024).

That being said, if you prefer to purchase a complete box at a preferential rate rather than try your luck on the shelves of your usual toy store, know that Minifigure Maddness already offers the complete box pre-order at the price of 189.99 €.

Even better, you can save an additional € 7 by entering the code Hoth54 in the basket for a final price of € 182.99.

Individually, each sachet costs you a little over € 3 instead of € 3.99. Express delivery provided by DHL for € 4. Then it's up to you to organize an aperitif to share the bags with your friends.

LEGO 71024 Disney Collectible Minifigures Series 2

New Disney Collectible Minifig Series (Ref. 71024) Coming In Just Over One Month on the LEGO Shop and on the shelves of your favorite toy store so it's time to take a look at the 18 characters that make up this new series of bagged characters.

No question of giving you an academic presentation on the subject here or giving you a simple description of what you see in the photos, you have in any case already selected your favorites among all the characters proposed. I will therefore content myself with highlighting the qualities or the faults of these minifigs. Some of them deserve a closer look and take five minutes out of the usual wonder at Disney products, especially at € 3.99 per copy.

For the service haters, when I talk about finishing, I am well aware that no one will spend their time scrutinizing these minifigs very closely and they will end up lined up on a shelf a reasonable distance from their owner's gaze. ...

Picsou, Riri, Fifi and Loulou will find their audience among the readers of Picsou Magazine and also among all those like me who one day had in their hands a re-edition of the manual of the Juniors Castors. Scrooge's minifig is really very accomplished and it incorporates almost all of LEGO's know-how in molding and pad printing.

It is flawless for printing with an exemplary finish, even the element that allows the duck tail to be inserted between the legs and the torso and colored on three sides to be really fitting with the hips and the bottom of the character torso.

Donald's three nephews are a bit more sober with the same head and legs for the whole troop and a torso / cap set in the colors of each of the three young ducks. The torsos are neutral but it is faithful to the usual outfit of the characters. We can discuss the budget to spend to bring together the three characters: 3.99 € x 3 ...

The detail that makes the difference and that gives interest to each of these characters: the accessories provided with each of them with a slingshot (Bartman's), a torch to assemble, a copy of the Beavers manual Juniors and a compass that will also serve as an interior page.

I would have preferred to get the three fur hats that the Junior Beavers are equipped with instead of the caps. But it's very personal. No major finishing flaw to note on these three rather banal but very neat minifigs.

Recall in passing that Donald and Daisy were both delivered in the first series of Disney collectible minifigs (ref. Lego 71012) marketed in 2016.

In a box of 60 sachets: 4 copies of Picsou and 2 copies of each of the Castors Juniors.

LEGO 71024 Disney Collectible Minifigures Series 2

The Mickey and Minnie minifigs are directly inspired by the animated short Steamboat Willie but are available here in a "Light" version. Exit the metallic shade of the minifigs from the LEGO Ideas set 21317 Steamboat Willie, and the minifigs are ultimately more faithful to the cartoon version.

The two big white circles on Minnie's torso are still missing and the skirt still has polka dots when she did not have any in the short film, but these two minifigs available for € 3.99 will save money for those who do not want the steamboat set 21317 sold for € 89.99. They will at least be able to boast of having the right to the helm of the boat and a lifebuoy.

The finish could have been better for these two characters. There is black ink drips under the noses of both mice and the white ink applied to the front and sides of the feet is drooling a bit in places.

No pad printing on the inside of the feet or on the back. There is also a difference in color between the white parts tinted in the mass and the pad-printed parts. A single coat on a black background is clearly not enough.

More colorful versions of these two characters were already delivered in the first set of Disney Collectible minifigs (ref. Lego 71012) marketed in 2016.

In a box of 60 sachets: 4 copies of Mickey and Minnie.

LEGO 71024 Disney Collectible Minifigures Series 2

Tic et Tac are really successful and the pad printing of the torso, simple but effective, offers a beautiful fur effect with just a few strokes.

For the uninitiated, we differentiate the two characters by the color of their nose and their teeth: Tic (the serious) with the black nose and tight upper teeth, Tac (the blunderer) has a red nose and teeth discarded.

No plastic tails on these minifigs, and I think that's a shame. An insert identical to the one seen on Donald's or Scrooge's minifigs with a small molded tail making the junction with the pad printing on the back would have done the job.

For the rest, it's pretty good. There are a few ink stains which have nothing to do there in certain places of the characters' faces but it is overall very clean. The two minifigs even have the luxury of having the right to small articulated legs that allow really more dynamic poses.

Big marks related to the manufacturing process are visible on the back of the head of the two minifigs, but it is a technical constraint which is at the origin of this aesthetic defect and it is therefore difficult to blame LEGO for these somewhat unsightly traces.

In a box of 60 sachets: 4 copies of Tic et Tac.

LEGO 71024 Disney Collectible Minifigures Series 2

Elsa and Anna are now joining the world of minifigs in parallel with their already well advanced career in mini-doll format. Opinions will be divided on the adaptation of these two characters in minifig version. They probably lose some of their usual grace in passing, but I find the two minifigs very convincing all the same.

Please note, the capes are simply thrown into the bags and all the plastic parts are delivered in an additional transparent bag. Beware of the scissors a little too fast.

The two sisters are here equipped with somewhat soft rubber hair which does not fit completely over the characters' heads and which produces a somewhat comical "wig" effect. Looks like these pieces have a little sizing issue, the quilts that rest on the shoulders of the Queen of Arendelle and her little sister limiting the sag of the accessory anyway. This defect is much more visible on Anna, it is amplified by the thickness of the cape and there is still a significant space at the level of the front of the minifigure which makes the whole thing a little disappointing.

For the rest, it's quite successful with pretty pad prints on the chest and the entire outer surface of Elsa's arms. I am a little less enthusiastic about the skirt of the two minifigs, the details of Anna's are not very visible but remain faithful to the usual outfit of the girl. The provided capes do the job, Elsa's is really beautiful with its ice crystals. Two identical soft capes are provided for Anna in the bag.

In a box of 60 sachets: 4 copies of Elsa and Anna.

Here is in a few words what I could tell you about these first 10 minifigs of the second series of Disney characters to collect. The continuation in the second part of the test which arrives quickly.

Note: During this first part of the test, a first complete set of 18 characters (provided by LEGO) is brought into play. To participate in the raffle, simply post a comment on this article before April 8, 2019 at 23:59 p.m.. You have every right to disagree with me, this is not eliminatory.
