That is one beautiful face.
Just look at his lower jaw, made entirely out of teeth. Look at his tiny black eyes embedded in his mane. Look at his long, flat beak. Just beautiful.
this... well this is something, I know some modern polybags look strange but this looks closer to zuul than a lion
Aslan's not looking too good.
It’s looks more like a primate of sorts than a lion.
Oh, Mr Lion, you have such beautiful eyes.
“Kill meeee...”

There is no lion... Only Zuul...
I didn't know lions could crossbreed with ducks.
Huwbot wants to be real! This is an interesting polybag...
I thought this was one of those unreleased polybag which LEGO revealed alot back in the day.
"I will never financial recover from this"
It does look like the product of a passionate love affair between Simba and a duck, doesn't it?
A productive days work for a Lego product designer in 2005.
Serves a purpose I guess, doesn't look that bad...
Simba remember who you are.
What an intresting little set i was unaware of.
This is the scariest lion I've ever seen, not because it is big and has sharp teeth, but because it gives me nightmares
Everyone benefits from a little lion in the morning.
Very baboon-like face on that one. Not sure what's going on in Africa but we might want to get a couple zoologists out there to check up on the lions.
The most interesting part out of this RSOTD is the plug for the Ideas project. That's a good way to earn more supporters, I'd say.
I find it funny that the instructions for this set contain an ad for a much better looking lego lion
I like this in a classic "it was all just bricks in my day - none of these special parts" quotes you always get in articles in the Guardian about Lego.
Bit odd looking though so I am glad Lego now makes more 'special' parts.
Lion? looks like a messed up duck to me.
@mr_Fikou:
I'd actually missed that, but I'm not sure this is really helping his case. It's a bit like threatening to kill a baby bunny if you don't give him your wallet.
