5158 Fi?ures series 2
« on: March 12, 2012, 05:07:07 »
Hey, 

Since most of the features can be seen from the promo pix, we just wanted to show a couple of things that surprised us on the fi?ures we have so far.

First, the fairy has a long train as part of her skirt:


We've never seen this type of skirt before.  She's very easy to find in the bags, as her skirt is bulkier than any other piece.  Pretty cool.


Next, the debutante has a unique hair ribbon.


The ribbon has 3 pegs that insert into her hair, which has 3 holes in the back.  Putting the pegs in is a trick, since the ribbon is rubbery, like newer version sandals.
The result looks good, but if you can pop the ribbon out, your deb has 3 holes in her hair......

Thanks for the pics..

The hair thing, though the effect is nice, the holes in the hair are not welcome.

The skirt is a huge disappointment :(  I thought it looked sooo nice..

I like the fairy skirt... I thinks it is neat... though I wish the wings were um... different or non-existent  :lol:  the hair ribbon works for this character but I can see why holes in the head may present a problem as well  ;)
Someday, I will organize my stuff, I promise.

I think her skirt is lovely! It's a great piece to use in customs.

What does it remind you of, Gaston?

Thanks for these pictures. I didn't notice the fairy's skirt before either. I think it looks cool though, but I agree about the strangeness of the wings (especially the holes in her back if they are taken out).

yeah that's true. Though it is not the first one with the hole in the back.
The fairy from series 1 has the same kind of wings and has definetely the same type of connection.  :(
The only difference is that the fairy in series 1 has the wings folded the other way around (at least mine does) so the wings press againts the body and they fall off easily.
These ones are a bit better.

The holes just force you to use the wings basically. So it's not easy to use the figure for something other than a giant-winged fairy. :-\
