Robert8 Posted May 12, 2017 Those villains look kind of lackluster, right? I would have expecting something more visually appealing like the NK villains Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Clx_45 Posted May 12, 2017 Overall I see what you mean, most of them are bland aside from headpieces, but in this case it feels entirely intentional. I think they want to visually appeal to the sea theme in more ways in just head pieces, while also making them humanoid. It also seems like these are supposed to be normal civilians with have been possessed in some way or taken over. NK villains are more eye catching and bright but they're also a completely different style. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
makoy Posted May 12, 2017 NK villains might be visually appealing but they are disposable characters. I think the head gears were intentionally made to stand out much like how you will identify all kinds of sea creatures. You remember them by the head gear and not through something else. I can't recall the names of these henchmen but I know there is jellyfish head, shark, angler fish, squid, etc. I think that's clever. At the same time this accentuates Garmadon as the ultimate boss.

Dr.Cogg Posted May 12, 2017 To me the villains look like their part of a navy that wears funny hats. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

benderisgreat Posted May 12, 2017 Fish villains look really bad. Sure headpieces are cool, but only a few of them even wear those headpieces! I wish Lego had gone with classic villains like Skulkin or Serpentine, at least those look unique. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Totally debatable... but if I'll go with your opinion it's actually a good thing for me because I have so much Star Wars this year that I cannot afford building another set of army.

horizon Posted May 12, 2017 The facial drawings of the Ninja's look really really drab. Disappointing to the max. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Skulkin and Serpentine have been done already, I appreciate that there aren't jut rehashes of previous villain armies. Also all the leaks are getting me super jazzed for the movie and sets this fall!

Borex Posted May 12, 2017 Anglerfish is cool. I'll use his head for an alien sort of fig. He looks kinda goofy too. lobster/shrimpguy has a nice headpiece as well. With some crab claws and some brickbuild feet you can make yourself a great lego shrimp/lobster. Would have preferred white dots in his eyes though. Too bad their bodies are so boring.

I don't get the fish villains either, but I suppose it is a springboard for constant sushi jokes throughout the movie. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
obsidianheart Posted May 12, 2017 I'm pretty sure that if they had gone with a pre-existing villain faction, a lot of fans would be howling about how they "misrepresented" or "didn't do justice to" that group. Like if all the skeletons were just disposible background whatsits, some people would be like "That movie sucked, Krazy didn't even get any lines and was totally stealing a hotdog cart which let me tell you makes NO sense because..." With new guys, you don't care how they behave. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ashnflash Posted May 12, 2017 (edited) It's already been talked about from some sources that there will be just a videogame for it and no Dimensions packs will be released for the movie. Also that same style of code has appeared on almost every preorder polybag we've gotten in the past. And you there are no cheat codes in LEGO Dimensions to access characters... He looks really great though! Edited May 12, 2017 by Ashnflash Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zergos Posted May 12, 2017 (edited) Yeah I'll bricklink a couple of the ninja's, but other then that, it's really not worth it. These villain figs are really disappointing, and I have no need for the civvies. Oh well, I'll be saving lots of money. Edited May 12, 2017 by Zergos Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
