I thought Baron Samedi was just the name of the villain in James Bond
Your right it is a Chinese Lion. A dragon figure would be cool too .. They could make them the same way as the lizard costume. A large mask and tail attached to the collar.
Don't know about making a back to school figure as many countries start back after the Summer Holidays in different months. In Australia Back to school happens late January early February.

Re: LEGO Collectible Minifig Calendar!
Don't know if it matters but the two tribal figures that we have would be a poor representation for Thanksgiving. The Hunters are more the American Plains culture and would not represent Wampanoag tribe that helped the pilgrams. I do like the Idea of having a Pilgrim fig and a more accurate Native American.Karalora wrote:Thanksgiving: Series 1 Tribal Hunter, Series 3 Tribal Chief, Pilgrim

You're right. More accurate natives would be preferable. However, it's probably asking too much for LEGO to delve into a variety of NA tribes.Merlin of Lego wrote:Don't know if it matters but the two tribal figures that we have would be a poor representation for Thanksgiving.

I think the curent ones are fine to be a single representation for the NA tribes, but if you are going to do a specific Holiday more accurate Natives would be nice.
