Minifigs from this bunch that I want:

6. Stubby
7. Catwoman
8. Pest Control Lady
9. Col. Chris Hadfield
10. Left Shark
11. Native American Stereotype
12. All those CHESTY MEN
Often, literally, a pillow fight but may include similar situations like volleyball, particularly when wardrobe is skimpy and the action is bouncy.

Nah, I don't think anybody wants that. Lego doesn't want psychotic BrikWars debauchery bleeding into their sanitized Lego wholesomeness, and I for sure don't want Lego wholesomeness infecting my BrikWars. Each would ruin the other. Despite how well it worked for The LEGO Movie, the two must never mix.

stubby wrote:What Vikings was really about was a big gamble to see if we could create a hybrid theme between System and Bionicle parts, and we didn't want to risk damage to the Castle brand if people ended up hating it. So we cooked up this expendable theme that could be thrown under the bus when people inevitably didn't like the system+bionicle style.

So I shouldn't hold my breath for an official Brikthulu theme? I'd love to see a mash-up of the deep one minifigs from Atlantis and those deep sea monster bionicles from a while back, but I guess that's just me.

Someone tell me when we get pics of the Inside Out figs. Gotta get my Shinji. They'll probably put her in the most expensive set like they did with Velma.

Those cutlasses look rad as fuck. Also, that balloon is pretty cool.

Those katana holders on the ninjas backs have the katanas on the same side, instead of in an x, is that new?

Kinda wish we could put them on the hip if that's the case.
