Time for posting new creations, abominations or abomicrations: The picture description: Remember the RRU thread about the upcoming BrickHeadz series from LEGO and all the ideas, that people were posting (and probably still do)? Then let me introduce you to the totally unexpected and super creative Budgetheadz series! (If you find out the secret behind the title your head may explode!). With an amazing array of TWENTY pieces you can witness, how your dreams will break apart and it will make you wonder, what you have done wrong in your life! Explore the vast depths of empty space inside the eyes of the Rock Raider, but don't you worry: the figure already arrives dead on the inside, when you open the DAMAGED-CARDBOARD-CONTAINMENT-UNIT (DCCU) TM ! Budgetheadz - Your choice when buying another door stopper as a present is just too much excitement! Backstory: Today I thought about doing another LDD project and came up with the idea of making a tiny BrickHeadz. Personally I am not really convinced by the result, but for 20 pieces it's probably okay (-ish?).

I'm just so damn refreshed to see people experimenting with minifigure styles after they've gotten so homogeneous over the past decade (The LEGO Batman Movie also does this and I love it). These still technically stick with the established guidelines for the modern style, but expand on it and give the characters a lot more individual personality... Which is especially nice when the original designs for the ninja were so formulaic and similar to each other, usually just with main colors and symbols swapped. The only thing about these I'm not so sure on is Kai's hilariously poofy hair. I like everything else though. Zane's hair piece looks like it'd be great for a more game-accurate Dash minifigure if it were in brown - which is funny as the older hair piece previously used by Zane (and Dash) was based on Dash's game design (For those who don't know: The Alpha Team game came before the sets and the characters were designed by the game devs; the physical minifigs were adaptions of the game designs.) (Edit a few days later - updated the topic title to be more fitting)

...hrrrrmm... ...there are some... interesting design choices on display here.

Merged with existing topic.

Time for pics! We'll be getting a trailer before TLBM, so expect it to drop online within the next week!

So this thing launched in the US and some other places! Yay?

HE-MAN! WE'VE BEEN MADE INTO A KNOCKOFF BRAND, HE-MAN!

I went to the store today and saw these; looks like Mega Bloks is trying to compete

mistakes were made:

we're getting schoolgirl ninjago....I bet zane's gonna be the tsundre....not like I'd know or anything....

Take this all with a small-ish pinch of salt, but there's a plot synopsis here that's apparently "the official version from warnerbros.com" from two days ago. Have a read: Oh dear. Oh dear. Also there's a poster on that site that could also be real (?): I've asked Philip Lord and Chris Miller to confirm if this is real or not on twitter, but for now we'll sorta have to take their word for it I guess? Oh dearie me, this isn't looking good.
