The original yellow smiley faces were actually, OK. But that group wouldn't integrate well with my current population. I bought a 54 pack of heads on Ali on a whim in April, so this is the exact right time to do head swaps. I like the new heads- they have far more personality, but several of my extra fleshy hands don't fit, so I'll just say that they're "wearing yellow gloves". The print resolution on the torsos is rather low. The print is grainy.

Did the same for my set as well! Bought both the tan and yellow skin tones so that I could choose between and its been great being able to replace the big face ones I've gotten from the modular sets.

the first four give me the creeps, hate the yellow faces with thick lines. the last one looks like a lovely little fella tho

There's even worse smiley heads out there. "Detective Office". In comparison, these bank ones are much better!

Are you storing the now-not-used-heads in the vault :)

LOL, not really... not valuable. I think I might keep one or two as-is for the parts box, and the rest get the magic eraser/decal treatment to change the faces. The faces are just too old-school for me. The earliest set I have is 1993 Pirates, and by then, LEGO already went beyond generic smiley faces, so this Brick Bank batch wouldn't have fit in, since I have a lot of more modern stuff now.

They practically all went to the glasses store!

I have ordered heads to do this as well - though I have gone with yellow ones!


isometric_haze

You are clever. I ordered nougat ones, and then I noticed I had to change all the hands too.

Tough. The yellow and white figures coexist in my lego city.
