I feel like there is something I am forgetting, but it looks good now. Berrybrick (talk) 21:08, 8 January 2015 (UTC)

Both the notes bother me:
- Cinderella has bleach blonde hair rather then strawberry, like she does in the movie.
- In LEGO Cinderella wears a blue dress, while in the movie she wears a sliver dress.

In all three of these images, the dress looks blue to me. Even the last one, the greyest looking version I could find, looks Sand Blue. Also, as you can see, after all the times it's been remastered, the hair colour changes all the time ((remastered, older version- the artwork's older, not the cover since it says Blu-ray :P). And really, it's probably the nearest colour anyway- Bright Yellow would look ridiculous, I guess Flame Yellowish Orange could work if you were comparing it to one of the darker shots. Either way, I don't really know if it's noteworthy NovaHawk 08:40, 3 January 2015 (UTC)

That's in promotional artwork :P I said movie because the designers claim that's were they got inspiration [1]. I have the current DVD and it's the same colour as that. I understand in Disney Princess redesigns besides 2011 ([2]) she's been blue and blonde, but the designers claim their inspiration is the movies. There's a description on Disney Wiki that will unveil more if you want. Oh and Aquaman and Green Arrow have bright yellow hair :P.
...and they look stupid :P Well, Green Arrow does. And that's probably because the only Green Arrow I know is from Arrow :D Anyway, back on topic- just looked at a 1950's clip, and the dress was blue, and it's blue even in the latest Diamond Edition- see here 5 seconds in. I'm not saying that it's always blue and never was silver, but in at least some versions it's blue, so it doesn't mean that the minifigure is in the wrong colours.

But that isn't blue, see the Prince's lemon cost is the same shade when it gets dark :/ But it was originally sliver, the place where the designers should and claim they get their inspiration from. Soupperson1 ^{Friends are Forever! <3}

It always looked blue to me as a kid, but okay. It's a nonissue to me, personally (especially the hair: They always go with more vibrant shades, but we don't have notes about Han Solo's hair being too vivid of a shade or some such). If you can source that the designers based the figures and sets directly off of the movies (which they obviously aren't), then I guess that it is okay to keep. Otherwise though, the design does match the glitter-tastic redesign that Disney synergy has been using the last couple of years. I'd kind of rather state that it looks like that than to call it inaccurate to a movie that it isn't exactly based off of, but again, if you can find a source, go ahead I guess. \_O_/ Berrybrick (talk) 21:56, 7 January 2015 (UTC)

Yeah, basically, what I'm saying is I'd rather only have articles accusing LEGO of being wrong except for in cases where they clearly are. These ones just don't even seem remotely noteworthy to me- obviously I'm not the only one who only remembers Cinderella with a blue dress, so it's not like they got things 100% wrong here.

Ill delete the notes then bad problems solved? I'm preety sure Max interviewed the designers on LEGO.com, but kids won't understand the term "Disney Princess redesign", so they probally just said movie. Soupperson1 ^Jeepers!

Maybe. \_O_/ If you can find the interview, feel free to add the note back. Berrybrick (talk) 21:07, 8 January 2015 (UTC)
