Hehe, that was exactly what I thought when I first saw him.

Awesome. And, we've got the new mohawk coming out in series 4 with the punk rocker. We just need that piece in black to make a B.A. Baracus fig.

Oh, and we need a cigar.

I love it when a plan comes together.

The zookeeper sounds like a great figure, it would be the first animal (other than the bat) ever included as an accessory( if these indeed are them)

The judge may be the answer to a lot of people's prayers for a historic wig! Eagerly anticipating confirmation of these but they sound fantastic. :thumbup:

[Peanuts]

So, the rumored new figs are the Eskimo, the two unidentified figs, the suitcase woman, judge, mobster and zookeeper.

The judge sounds interesting because of a possible wig, a robe and a judging hammer, and the zookeeper because of the monkey.

I think the mobster will have a new gun (different from the batman/indy gun), if it fits into a violin case. And a violin case! A piece I ever dreamed of, as I like the mob theme. I think this fig will be together with the gladiator a highlight of wave 5. I'll get as many as I can get.

Wow! That's a great lineup! Thanks for the news Plissken!

Hooray for an Eskimo! Never can have too many parkas!

The Historic Judge figure sounds pretty interesting, too. Will we finally get a powdered wig?

I don't know what they plan on doing for the mobster, though. LEGO is a toy directed almost entirely at children, so I'm not too optimistic about him. Maybe they could call him "Legitimate Businessman Figure".

I interpreted "case" as being a suitcase, not a violin case. Although, I like the idea of violin case a lot more!

[Peanuts]

I don't mean the woman, sorry, wasn't translated so far:

14. schwarz gekleideter Mafiosi mit schwarzem Hut, mit Knarre und Geigenkasten,

means: black wearing mobster with black hat, gat and violin case.

[vexorian]

Mobster with gun? LEGO would not give guns the city cops, but they will make a mobster collectible fig?

I agree it doesn't make sense but it has to do more with age groups; police sets appeal a lot more to younger kids so they don;t arm the good guys, as good guys don't shoot people just arrest them...

Violin case sounds great, here come the music shop MOC's

Zookeeper with small monkey seems iffy. I'd imagine it would be something to do with pirates or adventuring or pet store/vets. Unless it's a hint at an upcoming subtheme of city and it is a zookeeper.

Of the ones we've seen I like the boxer and the godzilla suit guy. The clown's pie is interesting from a MOC point of view. Can't see enough of the others to make a judgement. Cleopatra could be cool though.

[kevin1990]

Bold is what we've seen on picture

- Boxer:

- Cleopatra:

- Sherlock Holmes Style PI

- British Guard

- FEMALE Cavewoman (the one with the bone in the hair)

- Gladiator

- dwarf

- clown with melon hat

- godzilla costume

- Unidentified Blue Figure

- Unidentified Red Figure

- Female Figure with suitcase

- some kind of historic judge

- Mobster with gun, hat and case

- female zookeeper with little ape

- Eskimo

This sounds a bit differant to what I've heard from romours.

Although The zoo keeper might be mistaken bij the Bird trainer.

We'll just have to wait and see the first pictures.

Never the less I am curious of what will be released.

[Dunjohn]

They probably won't call her a caveman or a cannibal... what else is there? Savage? Jungle Girl?

On the subject of guns, and not to derail the thread, but does Denmark have an armed police force? I know Ireland doesn't. Only the special units carry firearms.

This sounds a LOT more plausible than the previously posted rumor, and it gets me so anxious to see a snapshot of those additionnal minifigs!!! I was actually thinking of adding an eskimo to the list of collectible minifig suggestions, I guess I don't have to anymore :P

Given TLC usual usual restraint regarding explicit violence, I would be really surprised if "cannibal" was the actual name of the what we assumed was a cave woman...

The judge sounds like a must have if wearing the proper wig and a gavel would be a nice new piece.

The mobster can be totally epic. It woud be quite shocking to see an official lego machine gun though...

If properly done I can also see myself buying a quite a few little apes!.

The female figure with suitcase is somewhat mysterious... I wonder if she's more of a traveler or a business woman.

[tin7_creations]

- Unidentified Blue Figure = no idea what this is

- Unidentified Red Figure = no idea what this is either.

- Female Figure with suitcase = maybe a flight attendant?

- some kind of historic judge = as in the one with a gavel and curly wig?

- Mobster with gun, hat and case

- female zookeeper with little ape = will the little ape be a new animal mold? Or will it be the monkey we usually get?

- Eskimo

[jonwil]

I hope the Judge is real. Although unfortunatly if it is real, it wont be available in time for my courthouse MOC (the layout in which my courthouse is appearing is happening before the release of S5 unfortunately :( )

[Jargo]

Judge. If it is a judge then finally those city criminals have a higher authority to answer to. Or it could be a town crier. Or something to go with the musketeer from series four like a 17th century dandy or king.

If Lego are happy to give space minifigs laser guns and cowboys guns then why not a mobster with a tommy gun? Weapon weilding minifigs run right through Lego's themes.

Female with suitcase could be anything.

If the Eskimo is an actual Eskimo and not a mountaineer or Polar explorer then I guess it might come with a penguin or have the short fishing rod and a fish. Maybe snow shoes. An Eskimo would be cool but I'd like it to be an explorer or mountaineer.

[CptMugwash]

The 7 new ones sound interesting but could be just rumours. I could actually see TLG doing a mobster, why not? the Buckingham Palace guard has a brown gun. Eskimo seems likely, the zookeeper could also be a vet or bird trainer, not sure. Judge sounds awesome, I'll definately be making a courthouse,

Judge: "I find the defendant guilty!"

"Penalty for not wearing hair or hat and revealing your head stud is death by disassembly!"

I wonder what the red and blue figs will be.

[Peanuts]

The mobster can be totally epic. It woud be quite shocking to see an official lego machine gun though...

Why? Lego has already done Tommy guns and SW weapons. I don't think a new gun that would fit into a violin case wouldn't be a big step from now on.

Not a penguin! I can take some inaccuracy from LEGO but a penguin to go with an Eskimo (or Inuit) would just be plain stupid and ignorant.

- dwarf

- female zookeeper with little ape

I so hope these are the actual figures! If they are, it's possible we could get 6 female figures (Cleopatra, cavewoman, woman with suitcase, female zookeeper, mystery blue fig, mystery red fig), but I doubt the red and blue mystery figures are females. The other figures all sound excellent! I think the female with suitcase would be either a flight attendant or a buisness woman. I'd like either, as it would mean a new female suit! Thanks for the information!

[Sandy]

There are so many wishlists and false rumors in the internet that I for one will not get my hype up until I see pictures.

I do however love the ones we've seen so far, especially the Cavewoman (very Flintstones), the Detective and of course Cleopatra.

[homoludens]

I attended the Nuremberg Toy Fair today and can confirm the list from above with some additions:

- Boxer

- Eskimo (with rod and fish)

- Cleopatra

- Sherlock Holmes Style PI

- British Guard

- Cannibal (the one with the bone in the hair) - not sure about this one

- Gladiator

- Unidentified Blue Figure - this may the lumberjack I saw (has cap and axe)

- Unidentified Red Figure

- Female Figure with suitcase

- some kind of historic judge - not sure, but if I remember correctly there was a figure with graduation gown and mortarboard

- clown with melon hat

- godzilla costume

- Mobster with gun, hat and case - I can definitely confirm this one

- dwarf

- female zookeeper with little ape - looks great!

I hate to say this, because it sounds so stereotypical - but this one looks like the best series so far! Terrific job by Lego.

Cheers

Frank

PS Have the figures from the SW advent calender been revealed? Don't want to spoil anyone's fun, but...
