It is focused upon a despicable group of rogues and villains that control the world through tyrannical behaviour and dastardly schemes. Theme Characteristics: Steampunk technology aspect is emphasised through the unconventional vehicles and contraptions within the sets; Victorian aspect is emphasised through the buildings and minifig clothing; Each set revolves around one of their dastardly schemes to achieve global domination; The heroes are The League of Extraordinary Minifigs led by Prof. M. Set List / Information: Impulse Sets: Hired Henchman The Agents of G.O.L.D.F.I.S.H rely upon mercenaries and thugs to enact their plots and schemes. This set includes a mercenary armed with a man portable steam cannon. Glider Warrior The Glider Warriors League of Extraordinary Gentlemen use hit and run tactics to thwart the evil agents plans. This set includes a minifig glider pilot and steam powered glider armed with explosive rockets. Core Sets: Steamcoach Ambush The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen are trying to transport reknowned scientist Prof. Va Dinci to the safety of an Imperial Stronghold using an armored Steamcoach. Cha Zu and her Oni Ninja intercept them and a battle ensues. Airship Intercept The sky above London is the scene for a battle between the airships of the two factions. The lighter vessels of the League take on an ironclad juggernaught of the Guild.

Palace Attack The Guild have succeeded in penetrating the outer defenses of the Imperial Palace and now battle the League and the Queen's guard in the palace grounds with the safety of Her Majesty at stake. Entry Images: Even though my entry is only one of the figs (Ze Baron below) I thought I would give you a look at him with some of his associates: the Agents of G.O.L.D.F.I.S.H: Close up of 'Ze Baron' (The fig that is my entry): Left side view: Right side view: Rear view: Ze Baron is the de-facto leader of the Guild, a dubious and shortlived honor that generally leads to a rather messy retirement. That being said Ze Baron has held the position for longer than anyone previously and has left a large number of would be challengers in his wake. A master tactician and strategist he finds great sport in the ongoing conflict with the League as the lack of any opposition would make the acheivement of world domination a rather hollow victory. He wears a state of the art Clockpower Armoured Suit with the ticking Top Hat of Terror his most prized possession, having stolen the designs from the original inventor who subsequently mysteriously disappeared. For some reason the suit and hat seem to have developed a semi-sentience and have been known to act independently of Ze Baron, with numerous infiltrating assassins eliminated whilst he sleeps soundly in his bed.

HumanPackMule Posted July 13, 2009 Posted July 13, 2009 Just a couple of quick questions: What's that orange stuff on some of the figs that look like lights? Is that troll dual wielding cannons? How'd you get the scorpions to work as arms? Quote
Jasbrick Posted July 13, 2009 Author Posted July 13, 2009 Just a couple of quick questions: What's that orange stuff on some of the figs that look like lights? Is that troll dual wielding cannons? How'd you get the scorpions to work as arms? The orange balls are the tips of trans-orange Antenna whip pieces. The troll does have 2 cannons and the scorpion hands are made into moveable hands by attaching half of the scorpion to the base of a minifig hook hand. Hope that answers all your questions.

L-space Posted July 14, 2009 Posted July 14, 2009 Great entry here Jasbrick. For some strange reason I am thinking "League of Extraordinary Gentlemen" when I see this. Don't ask me why, I don't have a clue. Quote
