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.

    • @bosswoman5128

      I would totally pay for that, but I also think it would be cool if Warner Bros could remake the original Harry Potter video games for modern operating systems (like Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone VG that came out in 2001, and those same franchise games beyond that one). 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)

    • @bosswoman5128
      @bosswoman5128 3 роки тому

      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.
