Strange that they're all female figures...

I'm a bit disappointed my two forest-women may no longer be the rarity they once were. But I'll be happy to get the actress figure.

I'm not concerned about the price going down as I had no intention of selling mine anyway, but it is a bit disappointing that my uncommon figure will become somewhat common.

I'm glad to be getting this. It's been a long time since I sold my forestwoman fig and ninja princess, so this will be the first of vintage fig collections I'll buy.

I didn't even think about her. I've got two of those I was hoping to keep rare...

I'm actually annoyed by this because I'll have to go buy several boxes of it now. heh heh...

I usually don't collect rare pieces simply because they are rare - especially in the last few years, these pieces/parts/etc have all been popping back up. Besides that, I'm a bit cheap when it comes to spending massive amounts of money for one or two pieces/figs. :tasty:

That looks like a great minifig collection. I may actually consider buying this one...

I'm interested. I would like to get the Forestmen's Crossing but it usually is quite pricey on Ebay when I've looked for it. This might be a cheaper way to get the forestwoman...

Sorry I red it somewhere but yes they seem to be released already.

now about the forestwoman I had a discussion on how to reconize the new one from the classic one
http://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=430547

seems the old one has smaller tooth in the torso, and the color of the torso seems to be a bit darker

But how do you know all of the plain-faced minifigs are men? Without makeup as represented on the red-lipped head, who's to say? :)

everybody is worried that the forestwoman willn't be rare anymore but you guys are wrong.
I had a discussion on bricklink. Turns out the classic forestwoman and the new one are quick differant.
so Its getting a new entry in bricklink. so for the real collectors (like my zelf) I will only go for the classic forestwoman.
and you can alwasy tell but the differance wich one is classic and wich one isn't:

http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItemPic.asp?M=cas122

http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?M=cas319

http://www.bricklink.com/search.asp?itemID=92395

As you already see the prices of the new forestwoman are lower then the classic one.

Yes it was my idea for a new entry and I think I did a good thing
