Am I just missing my Zorro suggestion? Or is he just under some other name? (19th Century Mexican masked bandit dressed all in black with a cape and carrying a rapier)

He's in there as Swashbuckler/Zorro. Wherever possible, I try to come up with a generic ID for suggestions rather than a specific name.

Excellent! Thank you, I figured he must be in there somewhere. I would LOVE to get a Zorro minifig. (wouldn't that make a great theme? Old West spin-off with Spanish Colonial architecture, Mexican soldiers in Napoleonic-style uniforms, etc.)

I'd like to throw in Humpty-Dumpty, Rapunzel (With a longer hair piece) and pinocchio.

Humpty-dumpty might be a long shot as it would require a large 'over-body' mould (like the minotaur) and I know their might be issues with infringing on disney areas. But something like 'Tower Princess' with a long braid, and 'boy puppet' with short legs and a long nose would create great new parts.

(I had also thought of female mermaid, medusa, female elf, cyclops and prince charming but they were already on the list!).

How about a cupid type figure? Short legs, bow and wings?

Some ideas that can be added to the list:
Girl Scout/Girl Guide
Tacky salesman/used car salesman (I picture something like Herb Tarlik from WKRP in Cincinnatti)
Davey Crocket (The Raccoon skin hat would be an instant favourite)
Amish Man
Amish woman
Injured person (head bandage piece, arm and leg in a cast, Crutch accessory)
Midgit Wrestler
School Crossing guard

A guy playing with a box of legos. Comes with a tile printed like a lego box, and a piece shaped like a cluster of mini-fig scale lego bricks.

Personally I could do with:
- Boy Scout (or would that be under survivalist?)
- Crusader
- Basketball Player
- Golf Caddie
- Naval Officer (or is that Admiral?)
- Senator / Congressman / Politician

I was going to start a new thread entitled "Ultimate Castle Collectible Figures" but then figured there was probably too much overlap with this one to warrant it's own thread. My point is more that after a somewhat dissappointing looking series 8 (maybe I'm just jaded from collecting) I compiled a list of new figures and pieces I would like to see TLG release. I think the CMFs provide a great way of doing this and so here are my suggestions:

Red wizard - Red wizard Hat. Grey Beard (new/hobbit mould). New wizard staff (like the brickforge one)
Female elf - New long Hair with ears (again could be LOTR, but yellow not flesh). Re-use above Staff in different colour. Printed dress.
Good Dwarf - Gold Helmet (non-winged). White Beard (either re-use new or Hobbit). Printed Thor hammer (how it should have been!)
White knight - New Mace mould (silver). Printed shield.
Barbarian - New Back sheath for swords. New barbarian Sword.
Minstrel - Beret in new colour. New Lute/harp.
Evil Queen - New Hat. New Mirror. Printed Dress (like Toth's/Maleficient).
Tower princess - Blonde Hair (PoP Tamina in blonde). Red and green Apple. Printed dress
Woodsman - Dark Brown forestman cap. Printed lumberjack Axe (without the red). Maybe a rabbit mould?
Druid/Sage - White jedi hood. Printed Cloth Tabard. Re-use new Staff in new colour (like the Heroica Sage).
Prince - New Hair/Crown piece. Gold highlander Sword. Re-use Tabard (different print. Crown?)
Dark lord - Horned helmet. Re-use Mace/barbarian sword in darker colour/black.
Female warrior/amazon - PoP Tamina hair (new colour) Spear. New warrior Shield mould (like brickwarriors spartan shield?).
Medusa - New Snake hair. Tail (ninjago). Elf Bow in new colour.
Greek hero - Winged feet. Gold gladius.
Roman standard bearer - New Animal Skin headdress. Roman Standard (brick built?)
Peddlar - Napsack (possible reuse of series 8 Santa sack in new colour/print). Silver Pot. Cowl.

I've tried to combine characters I'd like, with pieces/parts that people would be interested in (as these are my two main 'reasons for collecting CMFs) but without needing to create an excessive amount of new parts.

I hope you like my suggestions, and hope we see some of the parts/figs appear in series 9 and beyond!
