I still haven't been able to find Series 17...

[Findus]

Finally master Wu!

I absolutely love this! I'll buying at least one! It's just2good! I can display MOCs or my custom minifigures on there, I just the concept so much, I'm definitely buying one!

[K_Tiger]

They almost got me with the Sand Green, but I think the $30 would be better spent elsewhere.

Super expensive for what you're getting! It looks great but that is steep even for Lego.

Yeah, yeah, it is. Between actual sets I want and the exorbitant secondary market prices on minifgures from this years sets, I'm already dumping too much money in to Danish plastic blocks as it is.

 Looks like there is even distribution of the figure (assuming he didn't feel for them) also looks like Lloyd's hair and hood/hair combo looks like it will bulk the bag up making the two lloyds easier to find

Melting Shark's head print is great.

[LegoShroom]

Really love the female angler's face print. That scar is a really nice touch.

[Metanoios]

Glad to see the octopus head is indeed a seperate piece like the angler and puffer fish heads!

At 2:02 on the backside of the leaflet it is clearly depicted as a seperate headpiece to be added after the scuba gear

Are we getting Ninjago Movie BrickHeadz? Maybe something like this.

Oh, I'm disappointed in the Garmadons now- they didn't bother to make a new neutral torso extension- it still has armor on the back. I'd hold out for the vacation one to be different, but the pajama suit shouldn't have it, either.

They did that so the torso wouldn't move, without the armor the top torso could get out of line really quick

I can see that, I suppose, but it's still ugly. I wouldn't mind adjusting it.

Not sure if these have been posted before. It gives us a better look at some of the minifigures.

Aw dang it. The separate air tank piece has only one air tank as opposed to two like the one piece sharkhead/air tank mold.

Well, primarily, I would have liked to see the separate air tank mold redone in other colors perhaps to be retrofitted on classic spacemen, if it indeed had two air tanks like the spacemen originally did. With one air tank though, it sort of is just too scuba diver-esq. 

[8BrickMario]

I just noticed that the Garmadon torso was assembled backward from normal. It's not ideal, but I think it's funny that they did that just so they didn't have to make a new piece/to let it fix the torso in place.

I thought the leaflet would have a teaser for the next series, like the silhouette of Hugo Strange or Clock King

Would you prefer the Navy/aquatic life themed army not dress the part?

The leaflet doesn't tell us how to put the trigger in the stud shooter for the octopus henchman. I'm assuming it'll be one of those stud shooters with the trigger already included. This year's coastguard sets had a red one in it and it included the trigger already assembled so I'm guessing they did that on purpose for the CMF series  I just hope they make more minifigures with stud shooters!

I'm definitely getting 5, 11, 12, 13 and 14.

No, the scuba tank does fits them well for that themed look, it just would have been nice if instead they had dual air tanks like the shark headed goons so the piece could be used to spruce up classic spacemen for a much more outfitted look.

You could always just use the shark helmets with the dual air tanks for a new "Sharktron" faction.
