May 18, 201014 yr We are really spoiled, this new series looks really good! They improved the female/male ratio a bit too, now we have 3 out of 16 instead of 2. Although the witch minifig is not really one I look forward to. Judging from Series 1, I don't suppose any minifigs of Series 2 will have back printing? Some would definitely benefit from it. I have lifeguard Pam in mind, her swimming suit will look awkward with a plain red back.
May 18, 201014 yr Sweet and crap. 16 more figs doubles the large price I was already looking to spend. But dang, alot of fun ones. The pharroh, the roman guy, that mexican hat is awesome. I guess that's 2 boxes I need to buy now.
May 18, 201014 yr Author Yeah! Definitely the highway-patrol dude... But as interests are different in kids, maybe the Mime won't get that much love either! I don't know? Kind of like the Mime printed arms, Three expressions and all my favorite is probably , Spartan, King Tut, Mime, Vamp, Ringmaster, Witch, Judo Man, Mexican, Donny & Marie, Bay Watch babe, Surfer dude, and the rest just to complete the set!
May 18, 201014 yr The Mime is probably the Crash Test Dummy of Series 2: The one most people don't mind getting one of, but that's a little too odd to be really appealing.
May 18, 201014 yr This may be a dumb question but where will/is Series 1 and 2 being distributed in the US? I gotta find the cowboy robin hood and spartan haha.
May 18, 201014 yr Oh my god, these are gorgeous!! They're so much better than the first series. In this case, I'd love to own ALL of them.
May 18, 201014 yr Excellent, simply excellent. This whole series, this whole idea, is just oozing with FUN. I can't see this not going well into 2011 with as many as six or more waves. How could it not??
May 18, 201014 yr I actually wish this series had some sci-fi element. The real stuff that will make me buy series 1 are the robot and the spaceman. As for this series, I wouldn't mind buying 3 or 4 bags but I don't really have much interest in a specific fig. Of course not... it doesn't represent the Mexican in a bad way, does it? It's just rather a stereotype of a Mexican... big mustached dude with tanned skin and a sombrero. Nothing wrong with that. Neither with the Spartan. :PBy the way, I counted and I spy a total of sixty-seven new parts! Woo! :D I think the stereotype is in calling this fig the Mexican, whereas I bet LEGO will call it the Salsa Musician or something like that. Imagine if we would start calling the Karate Master the Japanese :) Edited May 18, 201014 yr by vexorian
May 18, 201014 yr Uhuhuhu the spartan! Uhuhuh the mime! Uhuhuhuh the maracas chico! Crossing my fingers and toes: who knows, maybe I'll see them in a shop even here! *___*
May 18, 201014 yr I'll buy them all again! My favs are the Mime, the Mexican, Vampire, the Spartan and the guy with the black clown's hair piece. Looks like a comedian from TV, Atze Schröder. Does anyone know if there are more series in progress? I think for most of us it's time to ask. We need replenishment after Series 2.
May 18, 201014 yr I am literally drooling over all these new minifigures... oh TLG I hate you... my pockets will be empty soon enough with all these great things coming out.
May 18, 201014 yr These are great. Finally a way to get a cheap Pharoah Much better than Series 1, Thanks for the Pictures.
May 18, 201014 yr Might the Spartan have a dark red cape, or is it only the render? Compared to the lifeguard's swimsuit it looks darker than normal.
May 18, 201014 yr Might the Spartan have a dark red cape, or is it only the render? Compared to the lifeguard's swimsuit it looks darker than normal. I had a strong impression it might be dark-red as well! Hopefully it is NOT only the rendered image playing tricks on us! More cape colours are always a welcome addition. (Although I still have no purpose for those two yellow capes I got from those Robin minifigs...)
May 18, 201014 yr That adventure guys torso will make a great Canadian Militia uniform Thanks for these great pics
May 18, 201014 yr Finally! A Sombrero! Huzzah! My old title finally will come true! EDIT: Hey, Anyone notice a resemblence between the "Elvis" and "Tony Angelino" from Only Fools and Horses? "Cwying, Cwying, Cwying for you!" Edited May 18, 201014 yr by Joey Lock
May 18, 201014 yr Wow!So many new accessories! Yeah! In fact, I think I'm more excited for the accessories than the figs themselves this time. The miniminiminifig is really epic! Indeed! It will be very useful for decorating any minifig homes and offices, and for making Academy Awards MOCs (or any kind of awards). Same's true for Pam (the Lifeguard-girl)! I'd only get her for her face and another hair-piece. Hopefully that very hair-piece is again another colour (read: not the same one as the Cheerleader's...). It actually might be. On the package cover pics, it looks tan, but on the line-up pic it looks yellow. Maybe it's the same color as Elsa's hair piece. I'm actually wondering how long it takes before some madman has assembled an actual 300 figs strong hoplite-taskforce and incorporates that into a giant battlescene-diorama using tons of PoP Hassansins (spelling?) as enemies...!!! Strong mental images start to appear Hassansins? Why not Persian guards? Then again, seeing how Persians were portrayed in that movie, troll minifigs would probably be the best choice. But yeah, I would totally like to see that too! The Mime's beret would make a fantastic medieval-citizen's headwear! Now if it only had a hole to add some plume... I'm sure that with some care, such a hole can easily be drilled. Although the witch minifig is not really one I look forward to. Same here, but then again, I can't resist the possibility of making a Green Army Woman! Judging from Series 1, I don't suppose any minifigs of Series 2 will have back printing? Some would definitely benefit from it. I have lifeguard Pam in mind, her swimming suit will look awkward with a plain red back. True, true... I don't know? Kind of like the Mime printed arms, Three expressions and all Yeah, I love the mime for his hat and different expressions! Great for brickfilming! And I bet his arms would go great on a City prisoner. Excellent, simply excellent. This whole series, this whole idea, is just oozing with FUN. I can't see this not going well into 2011 with as many as six or more waves. How could it not?? Agreed! Plus it gives the kids something actually useful to collect instead of that Yu Gi Oh crap. I actually wish this series had some sci-fi element. The real stuff that will make me buy series 1 are the robot and the spaceman. Ditto. For example, as someone suggested a while ago, it would be great to get some Greys in minifig form, just like this: Oh well, maybe in the next wave. Looks like a comedian from TV, Atze Schröder. LOL! True, but I think the head with the red glasses from Robo Attack would be better suited for him.
May 18, 201014 yr Wow! Thanks for the pics. Very excited about this series - much moreso than the one already coming to the states in a few short weeks. Although, to be quite honest, I REALLY, REALLY don't like that LEGO wastes the opportunity to have 16 stellar new minifigs by always including a couple throw-aways that very few people want as various versions already exist. You know who I'm talking about. I'm looking at you scuba diver and spaceman (although the ray gun is nice) in series 1 (possibly even ninja - even though I like ninjas, I already have several - and cowboy). And the celebration of mediocrity that is the Adventurers series rip-off explorer/butterfly catcher (?) and police officer in series 2. I suppose in some way, it brings balance. When you have something as new and awesome as the Spartan or zombie, you have to offset it with something, well...kinda lame. I just wish every minifig brought maybe not the same level of excitement, but at least a significant level of excitement - no matter which one you open. I'm already dreading all the crash test dummies, scuba divers, and spacemen I'm going to be invariably getting. PS - I am totally loving the new minifig headgear coming our way. A beret! A freaking sombrero! Decorated, no less! A Spartan helmet! Now I wish they'd just come out with a nice Derby/bowler hat.
May 18, 201014 yr I am absolutely in love with all these new minifigures and their accessories. They are really adding so much to the Lego minifigure world all at once. It is like getting an entire decade's worth of new figures in rapid order. I want them all now!
May 18, 201014 yr I totally agree with those who say that the second wave is even better than the first one. Me too! I mean, series 1 ain't bad, this is just better!
