Giving The LEGO Harry Potter Minifigures The Accuracy They Deserve | Fixing The Figures

  • 2018 was a glorious year for LEGO Harry Potter, giving us both sets and figures that were some of the most accurate and detailed we'd seen. In 2019 this continued however something happened and 2020 gave us loads of inaccurate figures. In comparison the figures had less printing and detail, reused more faces and torsos and just weren't as accurate as fans had began to expect so I wanted to give them the detail these characters deserve.

    For me, Chos skin tone has always really bothered me. Cho is fairly pale and yet she is the same skin tone as the Patil twins? I'm assuming they are trying to show that she isn't white but the first time I got her Minifigure I actually thought it was supposed to be Padma. It just doesn't look like her.

I may be young, but I love the old stuff, and I know other companies have made remastered versions of their old games, so I just want Warner Bros to do the same thing (although the old game will probably work of current computers on windows ten, but I need one of the old games to test it out first)

    I have been waiting for a remake of the burrow since missing out on it in 2010, and the fact that a 2020 set has figures of lower quality than a 2010 set is really disappointing, Molly just looks wrong, why couldn't they have just used hermione's hair in orange, unlike others, I can't swap out the hair or dress or face which means I'm stuck with a inaccurate minifig that is worse than a fig from 10 years ago. And I know, first world problems and all that, but Lego prides itself for being a premium product that will give you exactly what you pay for, this just feels lazy

      @bosswoman5128 3 года назад

      Yea, I think they probably should have too, but the reason they reuse heads from other characters is because it would cost a small fortune to give each minifig individual printing. It probably costs hundreds of thousands of dollars just to create the print for a new face on a head, and then to create new colors of plastic? The price wouldn’t be worth it.
      So I agree with you, but I understand why they didn’t do that.

    I love the Bellatrix but it would have been cool if you bent a wand for her

    For bellatrix LEGO could’ve used dual molded arms with skin color at the top and black for the rest
