Hapori Tohu Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 The collectible minifigs have been pretty popular, and LEGO has the next two series planned out. Luckily FBTB has pictures of Series 6 and Series 7 up and looking shiny. The new molds and colors LEGO keeps using for this line of collectibles continues to make each one exciting.

Vezok's Friend Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 Series 7 looks a little more exiting then Season 6, which is cool-looking as well. I definitely looks forward to that heavily armoured space-man ^^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makuta_of_Oz Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 I'm LOVING Season 6's spearman and bandit! I can make GREAT use of them! They're the most useful minifigs for me since Season 1's Zombie! Quote If you use correct grammar in your posts (or try hard to), place this in your signature.

-JustGeorge- Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 Ahh, those are so cool! the Genie in series 6 is just great.

Aanchir Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 (edited) Incidentally, these images come from the same sources as the non-watermarked Hero Factory and Ninjago 2012 pics. And both of these series are due for release in 2012 (even though Series 6 will probably show up early to catch Christmas shoppers). Why, then, can those sets not be discussed, but these sets get a news article? It seems like an inexplicable double-standard. It'd be nice to get a proper news article explaining the 2012 spoiler discussion policy. What decides if a 2012 set can or can't be discussed? Anyway, love these guys, just like the previous five series. Hope to pick up several.

Toa of Nerds Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 Is that a space marine from starcraft? I swear that looks just like a spec marine. Technically not, because Lego would need permission for that, but it is obviously influenced by Starcraft/Warhammer 30k. Overall these minifigs look pretty sweet. I especially like the hippie, the nerd, and the pajama dude. -don't touch my pocket protector Quote Three great comedies at one low, low price....NOTHING!

Kojol Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 was i the only one who was reminded of Rocka by the Series 7 aztec warrior?I was as well. For some reason, it intensely bothers me that the Grey has a ray gun. Don't they usually use psychic powers and ...probes?The LGMs have ray guns, not the Greys!

Aanchir Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 Also thought I'd share that Brickshelf user grogall has the pics in high-res. Here is Series 6 and here is Series 7. Unfortunately, the Series 7 image has the background cropped out badly, but otherwise it's high-quality and you can make out a lot of details.

GeluNumber1 Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 (edited) Well... looks like 2012 is going to be another year spent feeling the bags. But it'll be worth it. (Neptune is my favorite. Also, is it just me, or is it ironic that a few days after Dan Wheldion died, that one of the figs revealed is a racecar driver?) Edited October 18, 2011 by GeluNumber1 Quote Why are orange and black such a good color Combination ? Purple is pretty, and so is blue. Pink hurts your eyes, green is quite mellowing, black is very threatning, red is cool, orange is SO awesome, yellow's hard to read... But you can't see white at all! Oh, wait. I forgot brown. Here's my thoughts: If a person tells the truth and says, " I always lie," Is he lying? Or is he telling the truth? And what has a mouth, but no head, and a body, but no torso? Do caterpillars like to tend to supporting colum of stone's every need? Or is that name misleading by nature? Speaking of nature, why are the children of animals called offspring? don't many young beasts come alive in spring, and thus, should be called onspring? Heeeeeeyy.....

Nuvaguy Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 The Aztec warrior in series 7 is really detailed, especially his helmet! I also really want to get that wind-up robot.

A Toa Hero Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 Series 7 definitely beats Series 6 in my book. My favorites in series 7 are the Knight,The Space Warrior, and, of course, the computer guy.

Aanchir Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 If they called the native american a "tribal hunter," what are they gonna call the hippie? disestablishmentarian? color-loving flower child? Tie-dye wearing man with long hair? Man intoxicated with illegal substances?"Hippie" isn't all that politically incorrect, to my knowledge. I mean, if you call someone nowadays a hippie it's disrespectful because you're basically calling them a relic of a bygone era. But I don't think referring to a person in that historical context as a hippie would be disrespectful. If they called the native american a "tribal hunter," what are they gonna call the hippie? disestablishmentarian? color-loving flower child? Tie-dye wearing man with long hair? Man intoxicated with illegal substances?more impotantly, what's his quote, "I'm a lover not a hater." or "I like flowers."?Given his John Lennon-style glasses, I'd laugh if his quote were "Just Imagine" (playing off of TLG's promotional tagline in the early 2000s but also off of John Lennon's "Imagine"). I really love the quotes and bios on the Minifigures website, especially the ones that reference obscure details from past and current LEGO themes. Incidentally, they're written by Daniel Lipkowitz, the author of "The LEGO Book" and designer of many BIONICLE alternate models from LEGO Magazines such as the Manutri, Protodax, and Mata Nui Cow. On BZPower he is known as Swiftone, although he hasn't been active for over a year.

Nittany Nuva Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 Most of these are pretty awesome. I can pass on a few like the Flamenco Dancer and the Hippie (kind of dislike hippies in general), but that Scotsman is fantastic. Good to see a new costumed character in the Bunny. As it happens, Series 5 has essentially disappeared in my area, except TRU where they're $3.50... good thing I got everything I wanted early on, 'cept I want the detective now.. Quote 7.

16N1K4 Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 Is it me or do the minifigs in each series get progressively awesomer?
