I already have, thats how i know the ids to smart minifig.

There shouldn't be anything controversial about them besides the decision to launch in just 8 countries.

When I put them in the hands of a young child, I saw that it works exactly as intended.  Play time is absolutely enhanced by the sounds and lighting which are triggered by proximity to smart tags and minifigs, movement, and the color sensor.

I looked up the bulk cost for the components used to make the smart brick, and it is fair to guess that the brick costs 4-6$ to manufacture.  The charger and USB cable would be another couple bucks.  Retail costs are generally 2-3x the manufacturing cost, so it's not hard to understand why a smart brick and charger adds 25$ to the retail cost of Smart Play sets.

That's honestly about right when the TIE Fighter costs 70$ for 475 parts and a smart brick.  It is expensive, but probably not overpriced per-se.

I bet that the LEGO Super Mario minifigs from 2027 will use this new technology.

there are also rumors of a bigfig bowser (finally yellow bigfig arms and hands?)
which if it is smart play (which i sorta feel it might be) then the first smart bigfig? how would it be done?

My guess is it uses a smart tile like R2D2.

The system allows multiple 'smart devices' to communicate with each other using the BrickNet p2p protocol, so it is possible that they will debut a bigfig with actual electronics in it (or a spot to slide in a SmartBrick) and not just a Smart Tag.
