LEGO has published images of the next three BrickHeadz sets that will be released on 1st February: 40377 Donald Duck, 40378 Pluto and Goofy, and 40380 Sheep, which is next seasonal one, for Easter.
The Disney trio look to be the perfect companions to 41624 Mickey Mouse and 41625 Minnie Mouse.

Goofy! I love them all
They've done a great job of making that sheep look fluffy!
Strange it jumps from Goofy as number 99 towards Donald which is number 101.

Number 100 is the Sheep ;) Still strange, but maybe the numbering has something to do with the circumstance that Pluto and Goofy are in the same pack while the other two are individual BrickHeadz?
Finally! I though we would never see another Pluto brickhead or otherwise. Love them!
Never actually built a brickheadz set, but have collected them (most of them anyway some have escaped my claws) but these are a must have for me
Goofy's eyeballs look like facial patterns, with the pupils looking like the eyeballs...
Otherwise looks decent - Pluto is fantastic!
Great to see; just paid through the nose for Mickey and Minnie tonight, before the demand for those two bumps the prices up another notch with these new Disney ones being released.
OOH YES PLUTO!!!
I don't need anything else from this wave, but I must buy Pluto!
The eyes!! They haunt my dreams....!
Why, LEGO? WHY THOSE EYES??
Seeing that Mickey and Minnie where retired just 2 months after release and now sell onwards of £30 each might just get two of Donald, Goofy and Pluto.
Absolutely love Brickheadz and I try to get as many as I can. The sheep one looks adorable and packed with exciting details.
Twelve comments in and no one's mentioned the Pluto-Goofy paradox.
Now to get them before they sell out, will be the tricky part....
Me want more Disney characters.
I personaly think Donald looks fine but Goofy and Pluto look horrible, mainly because those 3D eyes.
They should make an eye print on white 1x1 tile instead.

I really have no idea what is meant by this.

Don’t they all have the exact same eyes? What’s up with you people?
I like the Disney ones but what does a sheep have to do with easter?

If you consider it a lamb then there's the association with Christ as the 'lamb of god' and the fact that Easter is mainly to remember his sacrifice.
There's also the association of Easter marking the rebirth as we go into spring, so any young animal would do to represent the season (bunnies, chicks, lambs, etc).
The Easter lamb is actually a very powerful Christian symbol and far more appropriate for Easter than the more well known but less fitting pagan Bunny.

That's exactly what completely put me off Brickheadz. The eyes have been a major failing; they've deadened the spirit of so many beloved characters and turned them into bizarre robot-zombies. I tried putting 'normal' eyes on Go Brick Me builds, which helped, but I couldn't unsee those soulless windows.
(Quick shout out to the awesome-sounding PAGAN BUNNY! There's a great username, right there.)

You mean that both are dogs, have the same head, and Goofy is "human" while Pluto is a dog?
I guess 2020 will be a VERY expensive year. I collect the Brickheadz, Speed Champions, Skylines and Microfighter series and there are also many other sets i want to have....
By the way - Goofy and Pluto are so cute!!!!!
Hee-yak!
Looking good!
That Donald looks nice and if I can get my hands on one I wouldn't mind adding it to my collection to go with the Mickey I bought (especially since I have thus far been unable to obtain a minifigure Donald Duck at a price I can justify paying...)
Not interested in the Goofy/Pluto one or that sheep.
Meanwhile, I'm not interested at all in Donald Duck but Goofy/Pluto goes straight into the cart! (So does the sheep, for that matter.) I've been waiting eagerly for a Lego Pluto!
They look great. Does anyone know if there will be another run of Lucky Cat? It sold out very fast and I missed it.
I busted out laughing when I saw Goofy. He looks INSANE.
Someone needs to do a Kingdom Hearts tribute now that we've got the right characters :)
My first thought to the eyes on these sets was...
Minecraft and lego had a kid?!?!?
Note to self: buy EARLY this time...
Does anyone around here have all of em? Sadly my origins of collecting come from toys where responding to getting everything like a deranged schoolboy is the norm, so I’m close but most of what I’m missing now are either new or scare, hence $$$.
Are the ones from store openings numbered or did they stay out of the 1-___ insanity?

The thing is though... if you look at the Disney character designs too, the difference becomes more apparent. On Donald, his whole eyes are represented by the typical Brickheadz eye tile, so no issue there. On Goofy and Pluto, however, that same tile becomes just the PUPIL of the eye; the eye whites are built onto the head around it. When most Brickheadz don't show the white of the eye at all, it kind of creates an odd discrepancy.
These look kinda nice, but Brickheadz aren't going to tempt me unless they come up with a character who's an especial favourite of mine. You haven't reached that point yet, Lego xD

This is more or less what I was trying to say, but you said it better. Thanks for that!
Donald looks a bit bland to me, but the Goofy/Pluto set is kind of cute.
seems like a nice build
