You can see it in the trailer below at 1:52 when Garmadon and Wu are fighting in the woods. When Garmadon spins round, if you pause it at just the right moment you can see the bumpy lines from the first upper torso pieceon the back of the one Garmadon has here. So I guess they just turned the arms around and added some printing to the piece. Aw, that's a bit of a bummer... though it is a clever solution. And the good news about that is that it means the torso won't swivel around awkwardly.

May 18, 20177 yr I love the regular Garmadon figure. Hopefully I can get a set with him in it. I'm kind of disappointed that I won't be able to buy all of the sets, but I need to slow down on my spending especially after the LBM waves.

May 18, 20177 yr That's a skirt on Wu. A kimono would be different... it looks really... Crappy. But Garmadon looks cool! Finally a good figure in the movie line.
May 18, 20177 yr The skirt on Wu is actually quite disappointing because they put the split along the side. You can try it with any lego skirts you have at home, but basically if you put it on so that the split is in the back, there isn't any flaring out and it maintains its shape much better. It's a real oversight that they didn't do that here. Having the split be in the front would have been even more perfect. If anyone is confused, I can take pictures of what I mean when I get home.
May 18, 20177 yr Wait a minute...where's Wu's arm printing? He has lines by the wrists in the trailer bu not on the minifig.
May 18, 20177 yr The more I look at armored Garmadon,the more I love this minifigure! Such an improvement over previous versions: great new helmet and upper torso and good prints! I think this version of Garmadon will be one of the best, if not the best Ninjago minifigure ever!

In a way i'd argue that these villains are even stranger than serpentine and stone warriors. At least the other Ninjago villains have something in common and fit the world's theme one way or another (even the nindroids fit in). These look like cheesy villains from a Japanese production back in the day (or a Power Rangers episode, which is equally as cheesy). It's not that they're human (Ninjago's had human villains), it's that they don't really represent the unique pandora's box, somewhat ornate, or ancient, design Ninjago usually has. Also I think the two piece masks look neat, and i've always wanted the actual technicality of the masks to be mentioned, but this does even more, it's a physical representation of the actual mask process. And besides, you can either wear the top part on the head piece, or the bottom part on the neck piece. If you don't have a ninja's hair but a kid wants to have them maskless, you can simply wear the top part instead of awkwardly leaving them "bald". It's a good placeholder.

The skirt component is a textile piece intending to be the lower half of his kimono. It's also applied incorrectly, so yes, it does look crappy.

If there suppoed to be hands, Lego failed. ;) Seriously, it's all about the illusion - that this unproportioned blocky thing looks like a Samurai, police officer or whatever we want.
