Hello,

I am working on the new Aloy
 
Minifig No: hrz001  Name: Aloy - Open Mouth Smile / Lopsided Closed Mouth
* 
hrz001 (Inv) Aloy - Open Mouth Smile / Lopsided Closed Mouth
Minifigures: Horizon: LEGO Horizon Adventures

And could use some help describing the differences from the existing similar
parts:
 
Minifig No: hfw001  Name: Aloy - Lopsided Closed Mouth / Surprised Open Mouth
* 
hfw001 (Inv) Aloy - Lopsided Closed Mouth / Surprised Open Mouth
Minifigures: Horizon: Horizon Forbidden West
 
Part No: 970c69pb18  Name: Hips and Dark Tan Legs with Tan Skirt with Trim, Blue Sandals, Red Sash on Hips Pattern
* 
970c69pb18 Hips and Dark Tan Legs with Tan Skirt with Trim, Blue Sandals, Red Sash on Hips Pattern
Parts: Minifigure, Legs, Decorated
 
Part No: 970c69pb20  Name: Hips and Dark Tan Legs with Tan Skirt with Trim, Blue Sandals, Red Sash on Hips and Legs Pattern
* 
970c69pb20 Hips and Dark Tan Legs with Tan Skirt with Trim, Blue Sandals, Red Sash on Hips and Legs Pattern
Parts: Minifigure, Legs, Decorated
The red strap is wider and the position of the straps on the hips and left leg
are shifted. Despite the differences in the colors of our images, I believe the
details on both are Blue. (Hygrotus makes amazing images but sometimes his Blue
drifts more toward azure.)

 
Part No: 973pb4693c01  Name: Torso Female Robe, Dark Turquoise Scarf, Red, Blue and Reddish Brown Necklaces, Low Skirt Flap Pattern / Light Nougat Arms with Sleeves, Silver and Dark Bluish Gray Armor Plates, Fur Trim Pattern / Light Nougat Hands
*

Parts: Minifigure, Torso Assembly, Decor.
 
Part No: 973pb6053c01  Name: Torso Female Robe, Dark Turquoise Scarf, Red, Blue and Reddish Brown Necklaces, High Skirt Flap Pattern / Light Nougat Arms with Sleeves, Silver Armor Plates, Long Fur Trim Pattern / Light Nougat Hands

Parts: Minifigure, Torso Assembly, Decor.
The position of the belt and detail on the hips are different. Also, I believe
the 'Green' scarf may be an error.

 
Part No: 981982pb297  Name: Arm, (Matching Left and Right) Pair with Reddish Brown Sleeves, Silver and Dark Bluish Gray Armor Plates and Light Bluish Gray Fur Trim Pattern
* 
981982pb297 (Inv) Arm, (Matching Left and Right) Pair with Reddish Brown Sleeves, Silver and Dark Bluish Gray Armor Plates and Light Bluish Gray Fur Trim Pattern
Parts: Minifigure, Body Part
 
Part No: 981982pb396  Name: Arm, (Matching Left and Right) Pair with Reddish Brown Sleeves, Silver Armor Plates and Light Bluish Gray Long Fur Trim Pattern
*

Parts: Minifigure, Body Part
More of the fur lining is showing and the silver plates have more detail.

I am having trouble describing these differences without using comparison words
like higher and wider. Any help is appreciated!

Thanks,
~Jen

Qualifications for the job: I don’t know squat about the material

What strikes me on the arms is that
— the old left arm has some kind of screw (complete black circle),
— the old arms seem to be in two tones, lighter + darker grey/silver, but maybe
a trick of the light?

For torsos and hips, I’m seeing things that can help differentiate them but finding
a descriptive is hard.
I’d say the (brown) belt is thin / thick on the torsos
and the thingy on the left is thin and inclined / thick and (almost) horizontal
on the hips?

Otherwise, there’s always “type 1/2” (joking)
