![]() ![]() It’s placed on an angle, which makes it more interesting visually. His Cowbow Hat is the focal point of the Brickheadz, and is satisfyingly wide. Here, you can see that pearl gold clips are used to great effect for the spurs of his cowboy boots, and there’s even a red scarf that’s placed between his head and torso.Īnd last but not least, there’s also a ring on his back, which in the movies, you can pull to make Woody repeat some voice lines. ![]() Here, you can also see his holster which is fastened to his blue pants. I also like the use of tiles on the front of his face for his hair that peeps out from under his cowboy hat. On the other side, his tiny stubby little hands clutches a lasso, which is just the cutest thing ever. The tile is wonderfully designed, and brings the Brickheadz to life in the most accurate way.Īnother really neat design technique is the use of a drum-lacquered gold tile, sandwiched in between his pants and upper torso, for his shiny belt buckle. Woody has a very attractive printed tile for his torso, with his cow-patterned vest, and shiny Sheriff star buttoned on his breast. Update: Looks like these are meant to be cotton stuffing, as Woody’s a doll. Very, very strange and they sorta rattle around if you shake him. Woody’s colours are spot on, and there are cool little flourishes hidden throughout.īut before that, let’s peer inside – he has these bits of popcorn or cloud on the inside of his body. Let’s take a look at Sheriff Woody, which starts of the build, Andy’s favourite toy who is also a little jealous and insecure. Up next we have the 40553 Woody and Bo Peep, which come in a two-pack! Like Buzz Lightyear, the poppy and bright colours instantly grab you, and both Woody and Bo Peep are among some of the best Brickheadz ever produced, and I had a blast building them.īo Peep in particular had an outstanding build experience – every time I thought we were done, there were plenty of amazing details like her bow, cape, and hair that just kept on going. Unfortunately, the wings don’t deploy like in the movies (how cool would that be), but they can swivel slightly via the clips, giving it some small amount of articulation.Īnd here’s a comparison with the Buzz Lightyear Minifigure from LEGO Disney Minifigures Series 1! I also like the round tile on the sides of Buzz’s head, as well as the slight variations on Buzz’s arms – his left has a red laser as you might expect!Īnd here’s a look at the back, which gives you a better view of his jetpack. Those aren’t the only printed elements as the red and white strips on Buzz’s wings are also printed on wedges, which is another nice touch. Here’s a look at Buzz Lightyear’s buttons, and the Star Command logo, printed on a 1×4 tile on the front. Update: And these are meant to be batteries! Thanks to everyone who pointed them out! There’s this strange new trend where the designers are hiding fun little objects inside some of the bodies, and I’m not sure how I feel about that. This is a new Brickheadz thing, but apart from the usual pink brains, Buzz also has these blue canisters on the inside of his body. The first thing that strikes you is the excellent use of colours with Buzz’s iconic purple, lime green, and white making it feel right instantly.īuzz Lightyear’s impressive wingspan are on full display, outstretched so he can fall in style.
