Who calls them minifigs?
The Lego group themselves, for one
The Lego company, since around 1980. It's been the official name since their creation.
As someone who will go to any length for a pun, certainly if it's a physical one, my fig jam will be more tasty due to this change
I feel like this would be a popular opinion amongst the Lemmy general demographic but then some psychopath below proved the opposite to be true.
I find the use of "Legos" more triggering, the plural is Lego ffs.
Well I like all the new helmets, hats and hairs ¯|(ツ)/¯
Those are all fine. But they're still all supposed to have vacant smiley faces like the kind you'd find in a smiley face circle on plain yellow heads.
This is not okay:
You also probably hated the computer slant bricks too, or at least refused to use them on the outside of your spaceship... How boring.
How dare you! Space Legos were the best Legos when they were just Space Legos and not Star Wars or whatever.
Star Wars toys should have stayed with Kenner.
Oh yes, I'm going to piss people off with my strong toy opinions I am!
I just don't think simple smiley-faces would work with all the different ideas, though:
I like these ones far better than the hands-in-pocket guy, and infinitely more than the must've-been-4-inch figures in the old lunar rover set.
Yeah, this one definitely deserves to be unpopular. They've always been minifigs, they'll always be minifigs, you don't mess with perfection.
Unpopular Opinion
Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!
How voting works:
Vote the opposite of the norm.
If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.
Guidelines:
Tag your post, if possible (not required)
- If your post is a "General" unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
- If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].
Rules:
1. NO POLITICS
Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.
2. Be civil.
Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Please also refrain from gatekeeping others' opinions.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...
Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.
5. No trolling.
This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.
Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/
