Geriatric macaroni that's having trouble standing up without a cane.
@PurpleDave I dunno man, looks pretty studly to me.
On the other hand I wonder how many of them will be in the Pac Man set.
@MeisterDad:
What? Are you kidding? Healthy macaroni plates have a nice graceful curve to them. This one is clearly bent over. I've seen people shopping for groceries (and even one stocking them) who walk like that, and it's clearly challenging for them to get around.

1 star again, still does not taste good with cheese.
@PurpleDave : Yeah, I can't count the number of people I've seen at Walmart using their shopping carts as walkers.
HA! now you have all been fooled! just like Peter! (insert Invader Zim cackling)
Pac Man?
@Norikins: Um...no...you may need to lay down, as you might have a 'fever' of some kind.:)
@PurpleDave, @MeisterDad, and @Randomness: "This piece brought to you by KraftHeinz..."
Wow, the Pac-Man set reveal is a little lacklustre,
I really need this in white for a MOC. Lego should make this part in a lot more colors than it currently exists in.
Not a fan of how many specific shapes we have right now. It works great for model-making, but for regular sets it becomes a chore to build an alternate model if it's larger than a 30 euro one.
Coincidentally, I was building 31138 Beach Camper Van yesterday which is one of the sets tha contains this, in yellow.

This one feels kinda unnatural. Not quite 1x5 plate unnatural... but still not quite right.
I knew I had used this piece, and it was probably from Mario, but I thought it would be one of the smaller sets, not 71395.
Would love to see this in more colours.
@Miyakan:
I'm not particularly interested in using this because the radius doesn't match the 2x2 macaroni brick family. I assume it's designed to match the Mario pucks, but I'm unlikely to use those either. It looks like it might also match the 2x2 round radius, but not well. There's no stud in the center, so you can't attach a quarter-round tile there, and it won't plug the gap under the stud on a round plate.
Like the macaroni brick, it really needs an expanded family of parts. Even just plates with longer tabs and bricks would be a good start, but if it's married to the Mario theme, it might go away as soon as they do.
