Ugha Warrior face

[JCC1004]

Well Lego introduced a new print for the Ugha warriors. Link to Ugha.Then I started seeing it used again. Like Henry Jones's mouth was used on Indy and the smirk face. Then I saw it on the cemetary warrior. Link to warrior. It ws the same print except with out the pireceings and tattos with the skull added. Then TOD had it on the thugge with tattos and circles added to the print. Link to thugge. I hope it doesn't become as common as the Bruce Wayne head. What do you think about this? Not all these guys can't look the same so a little more diversity would be nice.

Thanks,

Nice find there.

The Bruce head was just a bunch of the exact same face, though.

These all have at least a little variety.

I noticed that too. Thankfully though most of those are in expensive sets so it is unlikely that they become too common.

I also noticed that. I don't think it's over used because it's not like the bruce wan head which is the same head over and over but this has come smalll changes to it which you already pointed out.

For me there is still enough diversity with the different printing that they all look like different faces. The temple guard is least distinguishable with the added face and eye paint so it's really just the same expression on 2 (so far) heads that have differing skin tones. As long as they take steps to at least attempt to spice it up it's fine with me.

It's ok for now, but if they keep releasing the same head without any other features, that would get really out of hand.

I always thought this face was overused.

Stole my post Omi, lol.

Anyway, I don't really count them as being the same face, I mean, they're not exactly interchangeable, and they're unique enough.

Problem with the Bruce Wayne face was that it was constantly used as a generic fleshie face.

Ceartain details on the Bruce face are in other figs such as Indy and Henry. You can't attack the classic smiley head. It has become alot less common. The flesh has really taken off in SW.

I pretty much agree with you on all accounts. Think about it; it's like how people smile - everyone does it, regardless of ones individual features. I think that as long the designs are for the most part different, I'll be OK.

I hope it doesn't become too common in figures. I'm fine with 3 or a 1 or 2 more, any more then 5 or 6 figures would be almost too much.

I wouldn't have noticed this if you hadn't made this thread. I doubt it will become too much of the problem, because the variations of the face that we have seen so far are so different that they are barely noticable...

I'm perfectly content with them using the same base printing, as long as there isn't another Bruce Wayne!

I wouldn't have noticed either - keen spotting!

It doesn't really bother me too much. As others have said, the designers have taken steps to camouflage the similarities as much as possible.

The original minifig classic smiley ran for years and years so I can live with a little repetition.

My Ughas aren't hanging out at the Chauchilla Cemetery with Mola's minions anyway. At least, not at the moment!
