"Overlord" doesn't necessarily refer to the character, just a generic villain descriptive the report used. I feel like Terabyte and Psyclone are connected, but not in partnership with Toxikita/Acid/Retox. They seem like their own force, working for themselves only. Infearno and Tremor are unaccounted for if Terabyte/Psyclone and Toxikita/Adam Acid/Retox are established villain teams, though. Tremor may be with Psyclone and Terabyte, since he's also apparently a technologically enhanced human, but Infearno's more elemental, but not toxic-based. We may be overthinking this, though.

Here, on the cockpit: And the laptop:

It's funny that Glurt's tail is the most obvious LEGO piece on the cartoon versions.
-
Hmm... a second wave and a well-developed storyline seem more likely now.
-
Toxikita looks more human than Acid or Retox, and Retox is the only one who may not be human-or have been human- at all. I don't think Adam and Toxikita could have been "created" but Retox could have been. Infearno being a DI reincarnation is odd since they look very different aside from their names and basic premises. What happened to the robotic arm? A few more weeks and we'll know who and what these villains are. EDIIT: Wait, I just noticed the Riverside Raid product description confirming Toxikita as his master. Adam Acid is trying to steal crates of toxic compounds from the Astor City docks for his Super Villain master, Toxikita.

I love how you tried to match the game's bike but made it your own. The wheels are fantastic. You should get one of the trans-orange chains from the new Hero Factory sets. I knew we'd be seeing these customs once Just2good posted his quick rendition of GR in his Infearno review.

I got mine a few years ago off of Amazon when the sets were fairly current. D. Zaster's hair print has since rubbed off. I'm glad that the villains all have independence in this theme, since it allows for them to be more unique, rather than the orange/black jumpsuit-cyborg villain theme of original Agents. I'm wondering now if the Ultra Agents are a continuation or revival of the previous Agents (in-universe) and maybe some are descended from them..I have to stop speculating, but the references and similarities have us wondering...
-
Why on earth would LEGO make sets based on The Batman? It's fairly out of date by now, and the target audience (present-day kids) wouldn't understand it. LEGO makes things for recent or classic properties to cash in on the public's interest.

And the same toxic bottles/grenades on him. He does seem to be a lackey of 'Kita. I'm certain Infearno is a separate villain, but his similarities to Dr. Inferno in theme and name are no coincidence. I simply can't wait for official info.
-
That brings up an interesting point. If she does make her superweapon in a future set, than that means Curtis Bolt ultimately failed in his original mission, confusing a few kids if their playtime revolves around official info. I think it's just an excuse motive to set up the scenario, but it would be interesting to see her again.
-
I like it, but it's also a clear throwback to 4-Wheeling Pursuit, and also one of the first times that LEGO used a stand-alone female villain to be the main threat. I don't know why everyone is clamoring for her to have a new set or reviews, but it's just popular, it seems.
-
What do you mean? She's exclusive to her set, and LEGO always has hero characters in sets with villains. If we get a second wave, it's likely to be new villains. Unfortunately, he doesn't, but he has orange sideburns under his helmet.
-
Toxikita could be D. Zaster's daughter. Of course, the "edgy" look might not please him. I would be disappointed if there's no continuity nods to the original Agents themes. HH is my least favorite of the bunch, but I still want them all.
-
It's sort of odd having any "I'm so lucky to have this instead of you" mascot, but at least he's young. If they kept him as he aged, it would be very creepy.
-
I would think that the HQ would be enhanced by the other sets to fill out the rogues gallery for more agents and play scenarios. But I want it and feel like it would be good free-standing.
-
This is a LEGO change that will go down in history! (okay, not really...?) but it is a great thing to hear about. What about that little brat made them think he conveyed an "excited and happy" image?
-
Psyclone's is rubber, so it should come in a tiny bag. Tremor and Infearno's special parts don't.
-
Even though The Batman minifigs would only be used in customs, I was thinking the same thing. Infearno's face is awesome but horrifing as well, since it looks legitimately burnt. Again, I like the slightly darker minifigs.
-
I didn't know Psyclone was old! I wonder what the meaning of his red eye is, and if the "Psy" corruption of "cyclone" is relevant. love the broken lens of the head print where his eyepatch is on the normal side. These minifigs are so wonderfully detailed and satisfyingly less campy than the older ones. The evolution is nice. It's good to see that the Infearno flame doesn't have much of a gap between the torso and head (or overhang). Great description, too. Thanks for the pics. Must get to TRU as soon as I can! I'm looking at you, Toxikita and Infearno...
-
I never noticed- Infearno carries dynamite. A flaming villain carrying explosives-isn't that a bit suicidal? He better know how to control it.
-
That would be a very welcome change. That kid looked angry and constipated. Using one of their own mascots is more appealing, and hopefully it sticks.
-
Exactly. Rapunzel's tower was actually a decorated prison, and the only relevance it has to the theme is being the iconic feature of Tangled. The Disney Princess theme is a misguided result of LEGO trying to market solely to girls (and not all girls are all about the romance ascpect) on one theme, instead of potentially acquiring a more generalized license that would be more interesting.
-
Please post pics of Psyclone and Infearno with no armor or headgear. And also pics of Infearno's head-flame.
-
The Overlord is just too epic to be true, especially in his walker, and, despite the bumbling review, the set looks really nice. I saw them yesterday at TRU. Pythor for the book would be unlikely because his head would make the front cover too thick, unless they put him in disassembled like the Toy Soldier.

Whoa...that makes Volectro look quite sinister!
