Clikits is back! Also dude, what a mobile? They know these girls the sets were aimed at were like 7 years old, not 7 months old, right?
The color scheme feels off for Clikits.
going off that colour scheme, feels more warm does it not?
Id say cool wound be blue shades
CLIKITS!!!!
ALL HAIL CLIKITS!!!!
I know what a dream catcher is, but a room catcher ... Nope, never heard of it. Maybe it's used when your room was jettisoned after a catastrophic event.
"Cool Room Catchers"?...Wonder if they work along side "Geeky House Flippers"...:D

I know the Doctor has had to jettison TARDIS rooms in emergencies, but that was to lighten the load, so catching them would have been counterproductive.
Why does that girl (daisy) look like a budget version of Andrea from friends?
Heart and Star (the other clikits girls) look suspiciously similar to Emma and Stephanie from friends as well!
Low key forgot that this theme existed, and I don't forget entire themes so...
Always good to see some more Clikits.
For when you’re a Van Gogh fan but can’t afford 31215
This theme still doesn't click with me.
I can deal with the wonky proportions. We've seen weirder in our minifigures, our minidolls, our Homemaker-monstrosities and our Jacks Stone. I DO mind the way the eyes are haphazardly smeared across her face, resulting in a bug-eyed horror who gives you a soul-withering stare while simultaneously looking at her own ears.
Presumably, she uses the tentacles growing from her forehead to catch those rooms.

Yes, a bit odd.
Typically they seem to be centered around Blue/Pink/Orange with each matching one of the 3 "characters". I guess it's still meant to be the orange one.
The green is still pretty much a Clikits color, although it made a few appearances in Belville (like that giant sea horse I think).

Star looks more like Wyldstyle without her side-tail, if you ask me.
Proud to be one of the 75 members who own this set (would you believe it's not even the least-owned set I own?). Some day I'll use those leaf pieces for something. Some day...

I say we burn this heretic for blasphemy against our lord and master - the good King Clikits! Who's with me?!
(I say this in almost-total jest)

Ah, glad to hear I'll only be slightly toasted ;-)

Exactly. That's why the set's name is ridiculous. I was referencing Doctor Who.

Missed the infamous Huw-bot Clikits Controversy then? Probably better for you, if you did!
Almost missed this marvelous pick today. To think I might have almost failed to be around to bask in the warm light of those room catchers as the light of the room is caught inside them, never to break free again past the event horizon of this amazing contraption.
That said, I'm glad it's only a picture. I'm in a room so I would be in danger of the room caaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahjkkdhs
