December 25, 201410 yr Author 2015 2H set list 70791 skull warrior 70792 skull slicer 70793 skull basher 70794 skull scorpio 70795 Mask maker vs. skull grinder This is correct, as I am aware of a set called "Skull Scorpion", which is what Skull Scorpio sounds like.
December 25, 201410 yr I had to. Spooky scary skeletons... Also, wrong topic (but it was mentioned here)... JOKERLAND!
December 25, 201410 yr 2015 2H set list 70791 skull warrior 70792 skull slicer 70793 skull basher 70794 skull scorpio 70795 Mask maker vs. skull grinder Can you guess my opinion of these new rumors, if true? Sounds like I designed them :D
December 25, 201410 yr This early? Dang! A present for all of us! Set names sound mostly legitimate, considering "Lord of Skull Spiders" is a set name and all. Really hoping "Mask Maker" is Ekimu (it probably is), I'm excited to get the Mask of Creation!
December 25, 201410 yr Heh, this is definitely a nice present. The first four are definitely villains and Mask Maker has to be Ekimu (not sure why they didn't call him by his name, though). If they look anything like the scorpion guys statues, then count me excited. Just not another LOSS, please! Skull Grinder is what I'm really curious about. Ekimu being in a explicitly conflict based set suggests that his opponent is Makuta (and boy would I love that), but I don't see how "Grinder" can be referred to Makuta. Unless this is another Lhikan & Kikanalo scenario- Ekimu being packaged with a villain character despite the fact the two never met before. Also OT, I got the clear Hau yesterday and boy is it cool. Not just for its colour, I'm also happy because all the doubts I had about Tahu's new mask are gone. The shape is definitely not squashed and it's a great update over the original.

December 25, 201410 yr Oh no, I just had a thought... What if they were reusing the spider skull mask....yuck.

Unless this is another Lhikan & Kikanalo scenario- Ekimu being packaged with a villain character despite the fact the two never met before. Oh, don't be so daft. Clearly Ekimu and Grinder will be Herofigures in their own Mech suits, hence the title "Mask Maker VS Skull Grinder". Sarcasm about IFB aside, what's wrong with not getting Makuta in the first year?

December 25, 201410 yr I meant getting Makuta as in, eg, not Maxilos or the Great Spirit Robot. I don't see what's wrong with LEGO not making a "THIS IS *PURE* MAKUTA" set. This gives them time to expand CCBS further to make an overall better set.
December 25, 201410 yr If this is legit, I kinda hope the Skull Scorpio is an actual scorpion rather than those warriors. We have more than enough humanoids already, an updated evil and skeletal Nui-Jaga would be a million times better. I do hope that we get some new colors of the basic spiders, though. A purple or pink skull spider would be excellent. Also, for some reason my first thought after reading "Skull Grinder" was "Helicoprion?". Why? I don't know, considering that that would be the most implausible set ever. I do think some sort of saw would be fitting for such a character. I do wonder whether the "Mask Maker" is actually Ekimu. It seems less likely, considering that the "Bone Grinder" is probably a villain, but it could be that the Mask Maker is Makuta. Makuta is obsessive enough to be willing to fight someone just to stop them from getting power. The other sets sound like generic humanoid soldier builds. Hopefully they'll be a bit more interesting than that, though. Maybe some nice colors, like we got in the first wave, could spice them up a little. If they're paler, "bleached-bone" shades rather than bright ones, that would be perfect.
December 25, 201410 yr Oh no, I just had a thought... What if they were reusing the spider skull mask....yuck. A skull spider would actually look quite good as the normal mask for a villain. Many MOCs have already popped up using it in fantastic ways. I meant getting Makuta as in, eg, not Maxilos or the Great Spirit Robot. I don't see what's wrong with LEGO not making a "THIS IS *PURE* MAKUTA" set. This gives them time to expand CCBS further to make an overall better set. I am sure they could make an amazing Makuta set using current CCBS. I am, however, now in the camp of not seeing Makuta until the climax. After my idea for a two-pack got partially shot down I thought on it, and it really would be more interesting to get Makuta later on down the line.
December 25, 201410 yr What if it's actually Mask Makers, plural, not Mask Maker? Could be Ekimu and Makuta fighting a larger villain. That'd also explain why the set refers to them by title rather than by name - Ekimu and Makuta vs. Skull Grinder seems too cumbersome to me. Edited December 25, 201410 yr by Chro
December 25, 201410 yr So there is one great villain, whose army are skull soldiers, creatures etc. including Skull Spiders and Lord of the Skull Spiders?

That'd also explain why the set refers to them by title rather than by name - Ekimu and Makuta vs. Skull Grinder seems too cumbersome to me. That is possible, like if Makuta and Ekimu are fighting but have to unwillingly fight together.
December 25, 201410 yr I kinda hope they save Makuta for later. Build him up a little before releasing him as a set.
December 25, 201410 yr I'd be ok with Makuta showing up in 2016, the only reason I'd like to see him in 2015 is because I fear we won't see another chance to get his pre-corruption form, which I like way more than his (IMO) cliched obviously evil form. It is easily one of my favourite villain designs in constraction ever, the black/gold/tr purple colour scheme is just way too good. I guess I'd be ok with not getting a set of him now if I knew we're getting a gold MoCo later, but we'd still miss out amazing parts like all the tr. purple goodness.
