8BrickMario Posted December 13, 2015 (edited) There are three different Scurriers. The two in Fortrex and the one in Clay's Rumble Blade. I'd expect some minor plant minions for the Mushlord arc. Edited December 13, 2015 by 8BrickMario Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BrickJagger Posted December 13, 2015 There are three different Scurriers. The two in Fortrex and the one in Clay's Rumble Blade. I'd expect some minor plant minions for the Mushlord arc. The question is....... when is the Mushlord arc? 2017? If so, how on earth did we get pictures over a year in advance? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BrickJagger Posted December 13, 2015 2017.. that feels like forever from now. Did you ever get a response from Lordofdragonss? I have no clue why he barely posted anything about the sets after just seeing them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DraikNova Posted December 13, 2015 It amuses me how many people seem to think that mushrooms are a kind of plant rather than an entirely separate group. Personally, I'm hoping they're based on non-creature swamp organisms in general. Some sort of bacteria-themed villain would be lovely. And maybe we could get a pitcher plant at some point. For what is basically a disembodied plant stomach, they're immensely underrepresented, and I feel that they could work well as the Globlin equivalent for a swamp and decay-themed wave. Little root-coil feet and limbs and an open, gaping "mouth" to top off the pot-like body.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lyichir Posted December 13, 2015 (edited) Why is everyone assuming those figures represent actual figures in future sets? Just because they're a part of the story doesn't mean they'll appear physically, and previous "Big Bang" themes like Ninjago and Chima have featured plenty of characters and even species that showed up in media but never appeared in actual sets. I doubt the mushroom and plant people will feature in sets, and I definitely don't see them representing a major villain faction.

8BrickMario Posted December 13, 2015 Well, Jestro's gotta get out of the picture at some time, and these seem like good candidates for the "villain-of-the-year" spot, especially since one is named. Also, wishful thinking. Because we want them, we're talking about them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DraikNova Posted December 13, 2015 (edited) Also, wishful thinking. Because we want them, we're talking about them. Yeah, it's not so much that we're assuming that we'll get them, as much as that we're trying to come up with reasons that they could and might, if only to convince ourselves.

Vorkosigan Posted December 13, 2015 While there is no guarantee we will get those figures, I fully expect the villains to change from lava monsters in subsequent years. A corrupted forest is perhaps my favorite way that could go. An underworld / cave realm would also be great. Even a cliched ice world could be good if it involved some warg like creatures.

A corrupted forest is perhaps my favorite way that could go. An underworld / cave realm would also be great. Even a cliched ice world could be good if it involved some warg like creatures. At least, the evil plant theme reach a sweet point between originality and classic evocative theme. Too much "classicity" (an orc army) and it solid but boring. Too much originality and it's become weird (revolt of the mutant farm animals...). Fire creatures and a volcano base are on the super classic side (less with the addition of a evil Jester and his talking book) but they made the best of it with all the minions and diverse lieutenants.

BrickJagger Posted December 13, 2015 (edited) With all of this talk of the 2017 Nexo Knights stuff, should I go make a thread for it? Unless that would make the mods mad. Edited December 13, 2015 by BrickJagger Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
telaruhn Posted December 13, 2015 The Book of Monsters has only been shown to make lava-type monsters. Shouldn't it be able to make other kinds, like plant and fungi monsters? Maybe if it fell into another person's hands?... If there's a forest, maybe there's a camouflaged Elven fortress!? I really hope to see the mushroom guy in a future set. IMO it's just too good of a conceptual character to not have in LEGO form. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DraikNova Posted December 13, 2015 I just realized that there's a monster hiding in that swamp picture. It has three large protruding sections of teeth...Giant leech? Oh god please LEGO, that'd be the best thing ever. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The other thing that's good about it: Mushroom people are typically innocent fairy-tale creatures. So a twisted version is both incredibly cool, and entirely appropriate for a fantasy kingdom.

BrickFit26 Posted December 13, 2015 Wow wow wow! The Mushlord and the evil plant lady look fantastic and so detailed. I really hope they do become actual minifgures for future Nexo Knight sets. Flame looks really good too with the snake tail. These villains for Nexo Knights have turned out to be excellent. :devil: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
