Scrooge McDuck

As an old school Ducktales fan, Scrooge McDuck hit all the right spots for me and I didn't waste any time re-enacting him swimming in a pool of chrome gold LEGO coins. I never thought that LEGO would include Ducktales in their Disney Minifigures series, so Scrooge was a very pleasant and welcome surprise for me. more less

On the whole, I would said this is a remarkable release despite of the disappointing distribution ratio of 2 complete sets in a sealed box which resulted in a large number of spares of other characters. more less

The lasting impression I have from them is that the character designs are largely excellent, but some of the accessories leave a bit wanting, especially in comparison to other CMF waves. There's no doubt if these sell well that we'll see more Disney minifigures down the road (and who are we kidding, these will fly off the shelves). more less

The legs are dual-moulded and include printing on almost every available surface! The red spats worn over his feet are particularly impressive and I love his new head, featuring feathered texture around the sides and glasses above the flame yellowish orange beak. A black top hat is connected to the head using a small pin and this is compatible with other minifigures. Scrooge comes with a wooden cane and a printed ten cent piece, representing his Number One Dime which has appeared in numerous comics and television series. more less

For the most part, they're brilliant, and I can't wait to see some MOCs with them included. These will go crazy, given they're Disney, and so I'm relatively sure these will result in a series 3 Disney CMFs. more less

Overall I find this collection quite interesting: some figures are elaborate, while others are quite plain, but in either case this suits the depiction of the characters in their respective film or television appearances. Overall it is quite strong. more less

I quite enjoyed the first series of LEGO Disney Minifigures, but I have to say when the second series was first revealed I didn't think much of the character line-up. But once seeing them up close I actually quite like them. more less

The LEGO Disney Series 2 Collectible Minifigures (71024) is a mixed bag for me but it does include a lot of good characters that fans would want. Again my favorite is Scrooge McDuck but there's a few others that I do enjoy such as Hades and Jack. However, there's also a few characters that are somewhat lazy on LEGO's part including Mickey and Minnie along with Huey, Dewey, and Louie and the chipmunks. more less
