Cowardly Lion

These came in the Lego Movie 2 Minifigure series. Wife loves Wizard of Oz, so these were cute to give our daughter so she could play them with her mom. Pricier than buying a random pack, but you might have to buy a ton to get the one you want, so potentially worth it to do it this way if you just want the Oz ones or are worried about doubles. more less

This entire series is an outstanding release with minor rant such as the repeated inclusion of Unikitty design. Overall, I would said this is quite a remarkable release including fulfilling the distribution ratio with 3 complete sets in a sealed box. This alone, is a huge winner to ensure the distribution spread is done appropriately. Furthermore, I also noted with the minifigure neck marking increased the tightness and grip of the head and neck. This is actually great for CMFs which was previously lacking. more less

Overall The LEGO Movie 2 Collectible Minifigures (71023) series is a pretty interesting one with a number of characters that you wouldn't really expect to see in one of the sets. My favorite one is probably the Giraffe guy as well as the Wizard of Oz crew which are some popular ones among fans. There are also some questionable inclusions such as Emmet and Unikitty. Do we really need another of their variants even though they have been heavily featured in the sets and Unikitty in her series from last year? more less

Everyone needs a bit of courage, though some don't know they've already got it. The Cowardly Lion may be a bit bashful, but he's ready to join Dorothy for some LEGO adventures. Almost entirely nougat colored with simply brown fur patterns on both sides of the torso and the front of the legs, the Cowardly Lion has flesh-colored ears and head, along with brown hands. The lion's mane is a new element. more less

I found a few surprises looking through the set, especially with the UV: Bright Green seems to be particularly Bright. I wonder how other elements in this colour look?. Orange is inconsistent: some versions of Bright Orange Fluoresce, others do not. Likewise red: I have some fuselage elements joined together at home: some fluoresce, others don't! Some ‘Bright' colours don't seem to glow at all. Overall, it's a pretty diverse collection! more less
