Unfortunately, my sister likes many the weirdos from the candies and those idiotically named ones original, or almost...  ::)

I see a lot of potential in the so-called candy weirdos for the Circus theme! First I also was a bit skeptical about them, but then I saw their true purpose!

As parts, yes - I  loved them on the spot - but not as they are...

Indeed! Reminds me of the super elusive 7104v2 - Medieval Knight - I never managed to lay my hands on that one. :'(

Was v1 the chrome one (like the suit of armour in the Museum 3449) and v2 a dark grey one?
At that moment the ship suddenly stopped rocking and swaying, the engine pitch settled down to a gentle hum. 'Hey Ford.' said Zaphod, 'that sounds good. Have you worked out the controls on this boat?' 'No,' said Ford, 'I just stopped fiddling with them.' (With thanks to Douglas Adams)

The ewok cosplayer in series 18 boys is definitely different.

I thought that too or he is one of the Lost Boys from Peter Pan
I'm glad that I'm not the only one :)

Forgot to add this earlier: if my eyes don't betray me the miner might have the "Norman" hairpiece from 9461 in grey – now that would be a great addition, too!

I think you are right! Interesting that hairpieces used on Movie figures are finding their way into other themes. Obviously the hairpieces are not copyright!

The hair also appears on Mr. Chocolicious (the little man) of the Everdreamerz series.

Yes, that is how I understand the matter.

Indeed, and at the same time it is an assortment of useful parts – especially the fully armoured legs.

I thought that too or he is one of the Lost Boys from Peter Pan

That's a possibility I hadn't thought of, but now that you say it, it might very well be!
