Corydoras Posted October 28, 2010 Posted October 28, 2010 what code do i have to enter there to access the "book"? It's "pharaohs quest". Quote
CMP Posted October 28, 2010 Posted October 28, 2010 Jake face is so amazing! And I think he is Johhny son! Wouldn't he be Jake Thunder, then? Quote
BearHeart Posted October 28, 2010 Posted October 28, 2010 The finalized figures look pretty good. I like the torsos and new heads. Quote
Zarkan Posted October 28, 2010 Posted October 28, 2010 So, this update seems to confirm that the minifigs in the leaked catalog were just prototypes, and that we will actually be getting some brand new mummies and heroes with personality. That's a relief, and it makes me just a wee bit more interested in the line as a whole. Quote
Masked Builder Posted October 28, 2010 Posted October 28, 2010 Wow. The site looks better! It appears that there will be 6 collectible items like Atlantis. This theme keeps looking better! Quote
Hewman Posted October 28, 2010 Posted October 28, 2010 It' would be great if this came as a comic to go with one of the sets. I love the back story. Quote
Baylego Posted October 29, 2010 Posted October 29, 2010 Every time I get more and more excited for this theme! Jake Raines looks like a pretty cool figure, I want to get one of him in the sets! The treasures look like the pieces that are in the prelims we saw. Quote
ttoole73 Posted October 29, 2010 Posted October 29, 2010 (edited) This theme looks to have alot of potential. I hope it sticks around awhile. Gonna take some time to build an army of undead mummies. Edited October 29, 2010 by ttoole73 Quote
Wowplayer Posted October 29, 2010 Posted October 29, 2010 (edited) So now that we are getting an idea what the figures will actually look like, how much do you think the sets will change going from the prototype models we've seen to their actual look at release. The catalog that was leaked shows them looking pretty close to what one might imagine they will looking like. But in the past we've seen that Lego can sometimes drastically change what a set looks like between the prototype stage and the actual release. I don't think they will change much, if even at all. But if I had my wish, I would like the sphinx to look more like a statue and less like a robot dog. The same goes for the snake. I'm not really into the cloth piece for the snake's hood. And for the pyramid, I'd like them to replace the giant scorpion with sometime else (maybe another vehicle), but I know they wouldn't do that anyways. If Lego made these small changes, this theme would be just about perfect! What do you guys think? ~Wowplayer Edited October 29, 2010 by Wowplayer Quote

In Adventurers, the single pharaoh had 0 chance of winning against 2 teams of adventurers with a crapful of vehicles. Now, the pharaoh has a giant stone snake, sphinx, and scorpion ready to beat the crap out of them. Quote
Nikola Bathory Posted October 29, 2010 Posted October 29, 2010 So, this update seems to confirm that the minifigs in the leaked catalog were just prototypes, This update? Which update? I've only seen the leaked catalogue + the mummy with the alphabet from the site (which they pulled down afterwards). Quote
Decale Posted October 29, 2010 Posted October 29, 2010 The official website had an update, take a look! Quote
Nikola Bathory Posted October 29, 2010 Posted October 29, 2010 Thanks! I forgot to check if the official site was back. It's starting to shape! Quote
lightningtiger Posted October 29, 2010 Posted October 29, 2010 Too COOL ! Very interesting story, but is Jake going to better than Johnny ! So December 2010 eh ? Keep on your quest ! Quote
Decale Posted October 29, 2010 Posted October 29, 2010 Too COOL ! Very interesting story, but is Jake going to better than Johnny ! So December 2010 eh ? Keep on your quest ! Where did you get that date? It would be great, I think I'm going to harass my friends and family until Xmas! Quote
Masked Builder Posted October 29, 2010 Posted October 29, 2010 Where did you get that date? It would be great, I think I'm going to harass my friends and family until Xmas! The set usually come out around mid-November/December. So I think that's where he got it. Quote
dyntar Posted October 29, 2010 Posted October 29, 2010 (edited) The December 2010 date was on the last page of the Lego comic.. [go past the page where you brush away the sand. Click anubis's photo.. the final page with the Phantom Pharaoh Photo.. just under the photo ] Christmas is looking good this year.. Family doesn't need presents this year its all about Pharaoh Lego for me lol Where is the real one?? sounds like a to be continued line to me.. hopefully more sets after the first wave. Edited October 29, 2010 by dyntar Quote
The Crazy One Posted October 29, 2010 Posted October 29, 2010 Oooh, very exciting! Can't wait for this theme. Judging by last years realease dates in stores, I make it two weeks until these start appearing. I got the Bionicle Stars around that time last year. Quote
gondortoast Posted October 29, 2010 Posted October 29, 2010 Where did you get that date? It would be great, I think I'm going to harass my friends and family until Xmas! The set usually come out around mid-November/December. So I think that's where he got it. It was on the last page of that "journal" thing. Under the picture of the buring mummy it says "COMING IN DECEMBER 2010" this is welcome news, but knowing my lego store they'll be in about febuary Quote
Antonio Posted October 29, 2010 Posted October 29, 2010 (edited) I wounder will there be other themes with Jake Raines,in the journal it said somethink about amazon and yeti . Are you thinking what im thinking: Old-------------New Johny Thunder---Jake Raines Amazon----------Amazon -search for... i dont know some indian or somethink?? Egypt-----------Pharaoh's Quest -search for pharaoh Mount everest---Another mount everest? -search for yeti PS:sorry for bad english. Edited October 29, 2010 by Antonio Quote

Egypt-----------Pharaoh's Quest -search for pharaoh Mount everest---Another mount everest? -search for yeti PS:sorry for bad english. I think the journal mentions of other adventures were just LEGO's way of bringing back some nostalgia among AFOLs and TFOLs. Perhaps if Pharaoh's Quest is popular, there might be future themes with Jack Raines, and they might even be in the same sort of places Johnny Thunder has been. But a passing mention like that doesn't mean there are any plans in place-- Historic theme fans certainly learned their lesson about that after "The Elflands" appeared in a magazine on a map of locations in Fantasy-Era Castle.

Delta 38 Posted October 30, 2010 Posted October 30, 2010 Johnny searchs,in Egypt for the Ruby,in the Amazon for the Golden Sun Disk(rumored to grant a single wish),in Dinoland for Barney the purple dinosaur,and in asia for the Golden Dragon and the treasures of Marco Polo. ...What? Anyway, I see the logic in a potential revival of the Adventurers theme in different locations. I missed all of them, and would welcome them, particularly the mountain one or whatever it was. It sounds interesting. However, I'm fairly sure that they're just references to the old sets rather than a hint to the future. To contradict myself, though, Atlantis had a second phase after they found Atlantis itself, which I didn't really expect because I thought it would end upon finding Atlantis. The new wave has redesigned human stuff, which could be similar to this because it's a new location with changed stuff but the same characters. Quote
Dr.Cogg Posted October 30, 2010 Posted October 30, 2010 I was just writing what Johnny was searching for in the old adventurer sets . Quote
