UsernameMDM Posted March 24, 2010 Nice! I'd like to get at least one plus a couple extra hair and club pieces. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZeeK Posted March 24, 2010 any chance we could get a comparison shot (or two, or three) of this guy's club with the Castle Troll one? I was thinking of the same comparison, but somehow I can't find the old club anywhere (the sorting process has not been finished after we moved in). So as soon as I find the troll's club - we'll compare them side by side in every possible way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Matn Posted March 24, 2010 So far we´ve only seen & touched TLG quality and been told that they´re made to be in the ordinary line of products that TLG sell, and therefore checked and monitored the same way as a regular set. So please wait with the bad-mouthing of the quality , this is good stuff. Oops, sorry CopMike! I read that this wasn't the usual quality, but better than the minifigure collection packs. So I wasn't so sure what to think about it. They do look really good and like I said I just can't wait to get my hands on these. On all of them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
toatali Posted March 24, 2010 Apart from that, it's a Bill Oddie minifig! 'Goodies' MOCs on! Ahh, The Goodies, brings me back... Anyway thanks for the review! looks like I'll be picking up a few minifig packs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aanchir Posted March 24, 2010 Since I don't think I have any lighter yellow from Belville... Okay, I promise I'll compare the colors when I get home today... It's also the same yellow as is used for Willie Scott's hair in the Indiana Jones sets from Temple of Doom, if that helps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gunm Posted March 24, 2010 (edited) I'm not sure what kind of display setting I'd use this guy for--maybe I will just have a bizarre town with a bunch of clowns, cavemen, and pro wrestler weirdos! Edited March 24, 2010 by gunm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
prateek Posted March 24, 2010 Nice! I like that hair, and the face is a good surprise Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
not-in-use-anymore Posted March 24, 2010 It's also the same yellow as is used for Willie Scott's hair in the Indiana Jones sets from Temple of Doom, if that helps. I'm very sure that(even if it's the lighting) caveman Der isn't that shade of yellow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZeeK Posted March 24, 2010 are the torso and hips regular tan (brick yellow), or the lighter yellow used in Belville (cool yellow)? It's not quite clear in the pictures. I've just compared the torso with the tan and bright light yellow (as long as light yellow) parts. The torso is tan (not 100%, but 99% sure). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Delta 38 Posted March 25, 2010 Hmm. I have a slight issue with the side and back of the minifigure's torso. It's clearly the cream colour of the clothes. However, it looks odd since the top-left corner is ripped off. The yellow band above the leg printing is an issue too. Still, not much you could do to fix those issues but more printing, so I'm not too bothered. The club and hairpiece will come in handy, too. I have yet to get the Hagrid hairpiece.

fff Posted March 25, 2010 It is a really nice one, i wouldnt mind for a prehistoric line Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lego Lassie Posted March 25, 2010 Another great minifigure for the simple reason that it is unusual. It's actually one of the first figs that caught my eye when these images became available. I really like the hairpiece and that unibrow with the maniacal grin will probably make a funny appearance somewhere doing something devious in somebody's MOC.

WhiteFang Posted March 25, 2010 Ouch! Thanks for sharing this review, Zeek. I am sure, this is one of the popular minifig, for collectors whom are interested to dabble with pre-historic figures, and this Caveman appears to be very much suitable for that purpose. I can imagine, many of the builders will start building some Stone Age mocs. Flintstones, anyone? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ZeeK Posted March 25, 2010 The head reminds me a one power miners head. I think you're referring to this one: and the haed is: They might be relatives of some sort... The Caveman is the ancestor and the Power Miner is the descendant. Still fighting some Rock Monsters... With the club of with the help of Mine Mechs...

Grimmy Posted March 26, 2010 I love it! Great details and I love the printing on it. The hair could be used as a new Santa Clause for 2010 Dec holiday. Lego did such a great job on these figures that on the voting pools they are getting a majority of "outstanding" highest best vote option. I always put outstanding myself.

Capt. Kirk Posted March 31, 2010 So far we´ve only seen & touched TLG quality and been told that they´re made to be in the ordinary line of products that TLG sell, and therefore checked and monitored the same way as a regular set. So please wait with the bad-mouthing of the quality , this is good stuff. --> That's spoken CopMike... don't judge on some pre-pictures... LEGO only want the best for you, believe me. So put all you banners of cheap plastic in the closet until you actually seen and touched them !!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
