Posted February 20, 20169 yr Here is my Amazon Temple with my favourite Lego character: And movie with traps:
February 20, 20169 yr Really cool! It is a magnificent temple. I really like the colour used for the river itself, spot on!
February 20, 20169 yr Great! Brings back so much nostalgia of playing with Adventurers... Awesome job!
February 20, 20169 yr Amazing! The Adventurers theme is my favorite LEGO theme ever and this is a wonderful homage! Congratulations! :thumbup:
February 20, 20169 yr Fantastic MOC! So good to see my favourite Lego theme being re-explored. You can imagine the sound of the water crashing down from the cleverly-built waterfall (is this made using parts from the Cinderella set?)as well as the busy sounds of the jungle fauna hiding in the abundant foliage. The boat is the perfect vehicle for navigating the murky waterways (a realistic colour choice). The mangrove-style tree roots also set the scene nicely. I just wonder if this is not more of a Mexican/Central American location rather than the Amazon, as the temple looks quite Mayan-inspired but certainly not a criticism. Also I don't think crocodiles are actually found in the Amazon - (just their smaller caiman cousins). It pleases me to see the CMF series 13 palaeontologist used, as always thought she would be a perfect recruit for Johnny Thunder's band of adventurers. Hopefully there will be plenty more 'Adventurers-compatible' figures in future series - or better still a return of the theme - do we dare to dream...?! Edited February 20, 20169 yr by lifeinplastic

February 20, 20169 yr Awesome! This reminds me, has LEGO actually made an Indiana Jones temple situation like this MOC before?
February 20, 20169 yr This is an awesome MOC! I think the swamp water would look better in trans-green (so it seems more water-y) though the olive green looks really good too. I love that steamboat, and the rockwork is great inside and out. I spy an Aztec Warrior! This reminds me, has LEGO actually made an Indiana Jones temple situation like this MOC before? This one comes close, with the boulder and all. Edited February 20, 20169 yr by mediumsnowman
February 21, 20169 yr This one Oh, okay. So there is no set that's corridor-like with traps. LEGO should get on that with a new (and hopefully gender balanced) Adventurers reboot.
February 21, 20169 yr Pretty cool. Brings back memories, i loved Adventurers theme as a kid (still do).
February 21, 20169 yr Favorite theme hands down. This MOC is such an excellent revival of it as well. Total nostalgia trip. Great use of combining the old and newer elements together so fluidly. The construction is great and all around it's very nice job. Amazing MOC!
February 21, 20169 yr I tried to start a list of what all I liked about this build, and ended up with everything, ha ha. Seriously, though, the foliage, the pools in front of the temple, the interior relief work, all fantastic.
February 21, 20169 yr Author I try to modernize look of the minifigs. The last three series of collectable minifigures was very helpfull.
February 21, 20169 yr That is fantastic. An excellent build, great details and clever design. Thanks for sharing, I love Adventurers and MOCs are always appreciated.
February 21, 20169 yr This is a brilliant MOC! The traps are fantastic, and I love the way you did the outside temple!
February 22, 20169 yr This is awesome! Love the outside and inside of the temple. That waterfall is very clever and the foliage is nicelly spread. Very good work.
February 23, 20169 yr This is a great creation. My only concern is the hat you gave Thunder. It just doesn't look like ol' Johnny to me. Excellent thing here!
March 3, 20168 yr This looks really nice. The vegetation looks good and the river is nicely done. The temple has some nice details and the use of the plastic waterfall is really good. It is nice to see the action inside the temple. A nice upgrade of the boat/ship of Gabbaro.
March 16, 20168 yr Unfortunately my dark age started around 1998-99, so i just own a handful of Adventurers Lego. Now looking back to that theme i feel very unlucky that i missed that era. Great build, congrats!
