In this update we have Figures Series 25, and a Shields pages update as well.
Figures 25 is possibly the best series they have done in my opinnion. The girls are particularly strong.
Many original figures. In a few cases there are figures that seem like past issues, or echo them.
The Sushi Chef is a new torso color with new legs as well and dark brown rather than black hair. Seen here with the earlier version. Clearly they work at the same restaurant or chain though.
In the Girls there are three figures that look like they could come from Everdreamerz Comic World - the Artist, the Superhero, and the Unicorn Mascot. Artist is pretty unique, with a nice art smock pattern on the torso.
Superhero has the same hair mold and similar color palette and face mask style as Colorista. She is otherwise different in patterns though.
The Unicorn Mascot uses the fat body suit from the bear mascots, but has a similar patterning and color scheme to the previous version.
The horn seems to be in the old gold color, a tone we haven't seen for some years.
The biggest stand outs for the series are the Sami figures
They are great cultural figures and very different from previous releases.
Other standouts, Mister Black and White, Aztec and Valkyrie
For the whole series the graphic design is top notch. The Pizza Delivery Rollerblades Girl has a pizza slice logo on wheels, the Burger Guy has a burger pattern on his sleeves, the Koi fish on the Sushi Chef, all just great designs.
I really like how the castaway is a modern one and not a historical pirate type. You can tell by the modern uniform design on his tattered shirt
Just a great series and well worth getting this time around.
On the Shields pages there have been new image updates thanks to Bob, with part number updates for the most recent Novelmore knights releases. Part numbers can be found on the site.
From Novelmore
The 50th Anniversary Knight shield, no part number known yet
From the Miraculous series the shield from the figure Carapace, no part number either.
That's it for this update. Animals again next. New sets are due to arrive this week for me. It's going to be the third biggest year for animals ever, or possibly overtake one or both of the last two years that have been the record holders so far.
Thanks for reading - Tiermann
