Height is equal to a standard mini-figure.

It's interesting, that's for sure. I don't like the way the arms only stick out to the sides, but it does give me ideas for other things.
Do the hands stay in the peg?

Yes, the hands fit perfectly.

Interesting idea. If you could find a way to make the arms move more you would have a winner.

She kinda scares me.
Good thinking, i'm just not too sure.

She reminds me of the girl who eats the forbidden candy on Charlie and the Choclate Factory. Make her blue and roll her along oompa loompas!
To what end did you make this. What is she?

Wow! I was thinking the exact same thing. Great minds...

What is the skirt part made out of, I don't recognize that piece?

That's a jet engine/afterburner piece, and it is also found in the roof tops of the Harry Potter sets. I don't know the size of it off hand though.

4x4x3 Cone, if I am not mistaken.

No particular end. Sometimes when I'm picking up or sorting LEGO, parts that are close to each other have odd ways of combining. I'll let the Classic Castle experts decide what type of characters this configuration could work for.

Very interesting idea. For some reason the best movable arms I can think of is the neck/shoulder brick from the original maxifig. But that head would be huge! It would make for a good oompa loompa scene.

That's great
I would've never thought of something like that. Yes, the arms are a bit awkward, but if she's about to embrace someone I think it'll look fine. With a different face, that is
Whatever you do, don't.

Great idea, I have never seen anything like her. Congratulations on coming up with something truly new!

Maybe she is the poster girl for Excedrin. "I have a headache this big!" (That was Excedrin, right?)
