Seems to match up with J2G's description with the white temples (although that was for Doctor Strange but it could be on both)
deskp Posted April 21, 2016 Posted April 21, 2016 (edited) That looks like general Ross face on ras body Or Ras got a face that is youngish on one side and super old on the other for pit feature Edited April 21, 2016 by deskp
Deathstroke77 Posted April 21, 2016 Posted April 21, 2016 https://scontent-dfw...d89&oe=57AC05D5 Is this the new Ra's figure. Seems to match up with J2G's description with the white temples (although that was for Doctor Strange but it could be on both) Well, it looks accurate, and looks very much like from what I recall his BTAS design. Happy with that.
Duncan Young Posted April 21, 2016 Posted April 21, 2016 Fine with the body, I do hope there is a younger looking face though
Clone OPatra Posted April 21, 2016 Posted April 21, 2016 I wouldn't be sure about the face or the yellow cape, but the rest looks like Ra's.
BaneShake Posted April 21, 2016 Posted April 21, 2016 This isn't really ringing "Ra's" to me, but I could be wrong. I guess we'll have to wait and see.
retrotaco Posted April 21, 2016 Posted April 21, 2016 Yeah, I like that a lot if it's official - I think I'll switch out a younger-looking head if that's what it comes with and maybe give him bare arms, but I like that. Simple yet effective.
Falconfan1414 Posted April 21, 2016 Posted April 21, 2016 I think that is general Ross's head on Ra's body
Nsk97 Posted April 21, 2016 Posted April 21, 2016 The head and yellow cape are not part of the Ra's minifigure.
BaneShake Posted April 21, 2016 Posted April 21, 2016 I think that is general Ross's head on Ra's body That's the boat I'm currently in. The costume matches a Ra's costume I've seen before, but the head of The Demon's Head seems rather different.
just2good Posted April 21, 2016 Author Posted April 21, 2016 So Thunderbolt Ross is going to be in the fourth Civil War set, you guys think?
Sir Gareth Posted April 21, 2016 Posted April 21, 2016 (edited) I'm betting that the headpiece is Thunderbolt Ross's from the fourth Civil War set, while the cape is Robin's. So Thunderbolt Ross is going to be in the fourth Civil War set, you guys think? Care to prove us wrong? Edited April 21, 2016 by Sir Gareth
just2good Posted April 21, 2016 Author Posted April 21, 2016 Care to prove us wrong? I wish I could, though I'm watching out for CW spoilers.
Captain Nemo Posted April 21, 2016 Posted April 21, 2016 Not sure why people assume the head is wrong--its very clearly Ra's head on account of the goatee style. Thunderbolt, aside from not being confirmed as an upcoming figure anyways, does not have that kind of facial hair.
BaneShake Posted April 21, 2016 Posted April 21, 2016 Not sure why people assume the head is wrong--its very clearly Ra's head on account of the goatee style. Thunderbolt, aside from not being confirmed as an upcoming figure anyways, does not have that kind of facial hair. It's a matter of huge age difference. Ra's is almost always shown as younger looking. It is possible that he has a younger face, as deskp theorized above, in which case this head would not seem out of place with the Lazarus pit, but this head on its own is not the common depiction. Of course, Lego has occasionally differed from the norm with faces, particularly Mr. Freeze lacking his trademark red goggles, so anything is possible.
TheBrickBuilder14 Posted April 21, 2016 Posted April 21, 2016 That figure is definately Ra's... the body is accurate as he has appeared that way many times and the head also looks very much like Ra's to me. It's just the white facial hair that makes it look... weird. If it had been dark gray or black it would be instantly recognizable. One can only hope that he has one "young" face with black facial hair and one "old" face with white facial hair though that would still be strange as his beard is never really depicted as getting a different color no matter how old he gets.
Duncan Young Posted April 21, 2016 Posted April 21, 2016 Looking at a closer picture on Flickr, he's got to have an other face, he's even got age spots on his forehead.
NXS7 Posted April 21, 2016 Posted April 21, 2016 Not sure why people assume the head is wrong--its very clearly Ra's head on account of the goatee style. Thunderbolt, aside from not being confirmed as an upcoming figure anyways, does not have that kind of facial hair. Yeah, Ross has the kind of face used by J Jonah Jameson. The hair looks like one of those knock off customs, and surprised to see a lack of muscle print, but he's a pretty coolio figure
Cobb Posted April 21, 2016 Posted April 21, 2016 No that's not Ra's Al Ghul. Ra's doesn not have white/grey facial hair.
CM4Sci Posted April 21, 2016 Posted April 21, 2016 That face isn't Ra's tha looks weird. Where is that face from? Who is Ross?
TheBrickBuilder14 Posted April 21, 2016 Posted April 21, 2016 Yup the picture on Flickr pretty much confirms that it is Ra's. I'm also pretty hopeful that he will indeed have a younger face as it would make totally sense given the lazarus pit etc. That face isn't Ra's tha looks weird. Where is that face from? Who is Ross? Ross is a (ex)general that will appear in Civil War. In the comics he is also the Red Hulk.The picture on flickr however looks nothing like Ross and looks 100% like Ra's just a lot older thus making people (and me) suspect that Lego will also include a younger head with darker facial hair.
