Aurore Posted April 24, 2020 After Mitgardian Heroes and Scientists, I'm glad to share a third custom Collectable Minifigures Series with you! This time, the theme is Adventure. Inspired by adventure literature classics, pulp fiction novels, and vintage archetyps...Note : just like with the previous one, I hesitated between posting it in this forum or in the Action & Adventure one. I chose this one because this is sort of a MOC within the Collectable Minifigures Series theme... Sorry if I made the wrong choice! Jungle Adventures - A Custom Collectable Minifigures SerieSpoiler sections contain a back view of each minifig, and sometimes additional pictures too. 1. The Hunter Spoiler 2. The Guide Spoiler 3. The Ingenue Spoiler Do you really think I'm naive? 4. The Captain Spoiler 5. The Place Miner Spoiler 6. The Boss Spoiler 7. The Bush Pilot Spoiler 8. The Airplane Mechanic Spoiler 9. The Archaeologist Spoiler 10. The Bookworm Spoiler 11. The Jungle Guy Spoiler 12. The Damsel in Distress Spoiler "Oooh, you're such a cutie!" 13. The Priestess Spoiler 14. The Castaway Spoiler 15. The Warrior Spoiler 16. The Ophidiophobic Spoiler Why does it have always to be snakes?? Bonus! The Video Game Heroine Spoiler Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Darth Shadowthrone Posted April 24, 2020 Wow what a unique and fun idea! I really like the designs for the Priestess, Bookworm, Bush Pilot and especially the Boss, they all just seem to really work and stand out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
deraven Posted April 24, 2020 These are great! I was just putting together a CMF-style lineup and diorama of the original Adventurers characters and seeing this more modern take on basically the same theme is wonderful. Great selections and combinations here! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Robert8 Posted April 25, 2020 Omg these are perfect! Archaeologist, The Bush Pilot and The Ingenue are the best ones! I'd get them all if real! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Karalora Posted April 25, 2020 Absolutely classic pulp archetypes! Six seasons and a movie please! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well, either way, I do hope @Peppermint_M comes by if she hasn't already to check these out... 20 hours ago, Karalora said: Six seasons and a movie please! I'll take those six seasons of a Pulp Adventure inspired Netflix series too please! Seriously, I don't know why we don't see many studios nowadays tapping into that genre...

Peppermint_M Posted April 26, 2020 Oooh, neato! I love figure customs like this, thanks for sharing them If you ever feel like MOCing for them, feel free to post in Action and Adventure Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Your creation sounds great, I'm eager to see it! @Robert8 Thank you so much! We seem to have the same favourites... @Karalora Thank you very much! I also agree with @Digger of Bricks : why are classic/pup adventure serie and movies so scarce nowadays?? @Digger of Bricks Thank you so much for your enthusiam! @K_Tiger Thank you! And I definitely agree with you on the wihte scarf and crusher cap... @Peppermint_M Thank you so much! I have drafted a vignette for some of those characters, but I'm not satisfied with it yet.

DarrellBricker Posted April 28, 2020 Awesome series! Very nice usage of parts. I love seeing how people take parts and use them in a new context - the results are often inspirational. Well done! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Murdoch17 Posted May 4, 2020 Love the bush pilot and the airplane mechanic! I can almost hear the mechanic and pilot saying: Mechanic: "It'll be two weeks before your plane can fly aqain after this landing-with-no-wheels stunt you've pulled, plus I'll need to order another prop blade for for the right engine and build a whole new tail." The pilot replies: "Great, I'll be back in three-to-five days to pick it up, and just for you, I'll even throw in chance to hit it big with my next cargo load as payment - I'm going to be looking for a lost temple with some guy named Thunder. Supposed to be filled with gold and lots of booby traps." Mechanic: "...How much gold are we talking?" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aurore Posted May 12, 2020 @Murdoch17 Thank you! I really like your dialogue between them... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
