Overall, the Series 12 LEGO Collectible Minifigures looks like to be another hit. It adds some more variety to existing minifigures and most if not all of them can appeal with everyone. Many of the minifigures are very suitable for army builders like the Hun Warrior and the Battle Goddess.
Another high scoring for the LEGO CMFs which it is definitely worth buying and collecting these new minifigures.
I just feel that the Jester is an average minifigure. It's a rehash of an established LEGO Castle character that didn't get the same exceptional treatment as the Wizard. That said, it is still a handy character to have, especially if you like the Castles and require some entertainment for your Lords and Noblemen. The fact that it's really accessible to builders thanks to Series 12 is a positive in my book.
We've had plenty of LEGO jesters before, from various court jesters in the Castle line to the Harley Quinn character from Batman. This Jester is unique in that his colors are a mix of orange and purple. His outfit is still similar to other jesters, and even the hat is the same mold, so the new colors really are the main draw here. He is also carrying two 1x2 tiles representing cards: one with a Joker, and the other with the Ace of Spades. It makes me wish that we could get the rest of the playing cards, but I don't see LEGO releasing a set with 52 unique tile prints, especially since they wouldn't stack very well in that form.
