Alright! Finally, a set worth talking about! True LEGO in its purest form with foam, cloth, doll characters, and a gigantic snail. Go wild everyone!
FLOWER BABY
Masterpiece
"75 want this set".
WHY?!
Expensive.
28 cents per part, USD.
I. Want. That. Snail.
That's a lot of medium green. I wish it could be brought back. I've always enjoyed this particular combination of medium green and shades of pink, but this is my first time seeing it in a LEGO set.
Not for me, thanks...
I admit, I own a few Belville figures. They have decent articulation, scale really well with GI Joe and other 3.75" figures, and at under 5 bucks a piece on BL, are great to get orders of small amounts of cheap parts over a minimum.
My favorite ones to get are a few of the equestrian figures, and the medical personnel.
I love those pastries. It's the chef hat in light orange with printing.
There is something...unsettling about that snail. Its face seems off somehow. And why am I imagining it with the voice of Nicholas Cage?

While Im not personally among that 75, I do have a certain interest in bizarre out-of-production parts. I just think they're neat, I guess. Like the flower stem piece here. Its a really weird piece, and I cant imagine I could ever use it for anything, buuuuut I kinda want one.
Move over Ninjago City...
I think it's great! A lot of interesting parts in interesting colors! I always buy Belville and Scala stuff at fleamarkets since it's such a joy to go through the parts!
Hmmmm
It’s good... but it’s no Clickits.
