Credence Barebone

Credence wasn't a particularly interesting character in the movies to me, especially since his non-Obscurial form character didn't have as much airtime and wasn't given enough attention. That said, this is the only minifigure of his character, so completionists and fans of the movie will be happy to have him. more less

As I look over all of these fantastic figures, I find myself asking the question “Why is Voldemort, the only character depicted without a nose in the movies, the only figure with nostrils printed on his head?" With only one figure per box, and two characters incorporated in that figure, Percival Graves/ Gellert Grindelwald will be the greatest challenge for serious collectors. You can find two series of the Harry Potter specific figures in every box, but the Fantastic Beasts figures are harder too complete. more less

Turning Credence's head around reveals a pair of white and metallic silver eyes, representing his deadly Obscurial form! I am very pleased that this was included and am similarly impressed by his traditional three-piece suit which features some intricate white stitching along the lapels and a striped waistcoat, matching the character's attire in the movie exactly. more less

Other than the distribution ratio of the minifigures, I'm very satisfied with the variety of characters that we get in this set. Most of them don't appear in the standard system sets so just them being in random packs makes them more sought after. This is the second Collectible Minifigures set that LEGO has released to include a “chase" minifigure and it doesn't look to be stopping anytime soon so we'll just have to get used to seeing more of them in future sets. more less

LEGO has done an excellent job with this series, filling in many gaps and bringing new life to many woefully outdated characters. The multitude of new elements is in keeping with the traditional CMF series, and the detail on the characters is excellent. We didn't notice any of the plastic quality issues that have sometimes plagued CMFs, which is a refreshing turn. more less
