Lego Minifigures Series 1: Tribal Hunter

Tribal Hunter
“If you’ve lost it, I can find it!”

The Tribal Hunter is the best around at finding lost objects. No matter what you’ve misplaced, large or small, he can find it for you. He’s tracked down the Forestman’s cap-feather (it was up a tree), the Zombie’s turkey leg (he left it on the sofa), and even the Circus Clown’s missing pet elephant (it was behind the fridge). It’s made him a pretty popular fellow, but it also means that no one is ever willing to play his favorite game of hide-and-seek with him – after all, he wins every time.

The Tribal Hunter secretly loves dancing. If he hears about a dance party, he’ll be there…but he’s very shy about it, so he usually wears a disguise so no one will know it’s him. His most precious possession is his MP3 player loaded with dance tunes. No matter how good he may be at finding things, he’s always afraid of losing it!

Lego Minifigures Series 1: Skater



Super Wrestler
“I will defeat you – with HONOR!” Only three things matter to the Super Wrestler: his mask, his honor, and the time-honored art of wrestling. He throws himself at every challenge that comes his way with gusto, counting on the strength of justice and his muscular arms to save the day, no matter the odds or danger. When victory is his, he throws out his arms to the sound of roaring cheers and wild applause…which is a little odd when there doesn’t seem to be anyone else around.

There are few situations that the Super Wrestler doesn’t think can be solved with a bold battle cry and a fancy wrestling move. The surprising thing isn’t that he treats life like it’s all a big wrestling match – it’s that so far, it’s always worked!

XandersBrian Review:

This is a "World Wrestling Federation" inspired minifigure. The masked muscular wrestler is equipped with a red robe are ready to enter the ring for a match.

Aside from the printed torso and legs, this is one minifigure that doesnt have enough accessories.

Lego Minifigures Series 1: Spaceman



Spaceman
“Greetings, strange creatures. I come in peace!”This brave and intrepid space traveler doesn’t quite realize that he’s not out exploring the cosmos. The Spaceman walks in long, slow bounds across the landscape, somehow ignoring the fact that gravity is perfectly normal for everything else around him. He’s friendly and fearless, always happy to investigate a strange new place or salute a stranger with a universal-greeting hand gesture, but his unshakeable belief that he’s dealing with alien creatures and worlds can lead to a lot of confusion for everyone involved.

The Spaceman carries a sci-fi gizmo for just about any situation, including hi-tech binoculars, a grappling hook, a jetpack and even a tiny, remote-controlled space rover. Just be careful if you startle him into thinking that you’re an attacking hostile alien – his futuristic Electro-Zapp blaster fires a zig-zagging electric beam that can zap the hair right off a minifigure!

XandersBrian Review:

This Spaceman has a white printed torso that has the classic space logo embedded at the center of his chest. One more thing here is his helmet is not the usual regular helmet but something different which conseal the visor when if it was putted on.

Lego space collector will be excited to add the new Laser Gun weapon which is included in this set. They even add extra clear visor in case you lost it. A blue light saber is attached to the gray Lasergun in each package.

Lego Minifigures Series 1: Skater

Skater
“Bet you can’t do THIS!”
according to www.lego.com

The young Skater practices all the time to be the greatest skateboarder in the world. He lives for speed and tricky stunts, and when he’s around, any and every surface becomes his own private skate park. His board is his prize possession, and he always makes sure to keep it clean and shiny, even when he gets totally grungy himself.

The Skater is extremely competitive, and he can’t stand to see anyone do something better or faster than he does. His rivalry isn’t just limited to other skateboarders – he’ll try to out-race trains and out-jump pigeons flying in the park, just to prove he can. He hasn’t beaten them yet, but he’s sure he will some day!


XandersBrian Review:

Im not a great fan of Lego city theme but this minifigure looks really good specially his expression which show either confidence or boastfulness. This cool looking civilian boy has a wavy hair and his torso has the skull design makes him look young and hip.

This minifigure is great addition for city themed Lego collectors especially the blue skateboard which is included on each package.

Lego Minifigures Series 1: Nurse

Nurse
“Don’t worry, you’ll feel all better after this!” According to www.lego.com

Cheerful, professional and devoted to making people feel better, the Nurse believes that every
body around her ought to be as healthy as possible at all times, even if that means covering them from head to toe in bandages and checking every reflex in their body with a little rubber hammer. She can tape up a boo-boo, dash to the scene of an accident with a wheelchair or build a fully-functional MRI machine out of random spare pieces, all in a dizzying blur of motion…whether her chosen patient wants her to or not!

The Nurse thinks that every problem can be solved by expert medical care. If she sees a child crying because its balloon is stuck up in a tree, she’ll try everything from checking its temperature to taking X-rays, trying more and more complicated procedures when nothing seems to solve the problem. She doesn’t understand why the tears stop as soon as she gives the child a new balloon for being such a good patient, but she’s proud and delighted that her treatment worked anyway.

XandersBrian Review:

Finally, lego collectors can now have a beautiful Nurse who will appointed to take care of patients inside hospital. This rare female minifigure has a lovely printed face, nice printed white nurse uniform on her torse and a nice hair piece.

The syringe accessories is specially made for this series, one more good thing is, you will got another one extra syringe. A printed 2x2 tile which reflects the medical condition of the patient are also included

Lego Minifigures Series 1: Ninja

Ninja
“Like a shadow in the night, I – oops!”according to www.lego.com

Stealthy. Sneaky. A cunning master of martial arts. None of these things describes the Ninja, although he sure wishes they did. He tries his best to dramatically blend into the shadows or hide in plain sight like all the other ninjas can, but no matter what he does, he always seems to mess things up. The truth is that he’s just plain clumsy, and no matter how gracefully he may start a back-flip, creep along the rafters or launch himself into an epic sword battle, he always manages to trip over his own feet, fall off the ceiling, or bonk himself on the head with his ancient and mystical blade. Also, he’s afraid of the dark.

No one is quite sure how the Ninja ever managed to graduate from ninja school. But no matter how bad he may be at his chosen profession, he always keeps trying and never gives up, convinced after each blunder that the next time, he will prove himself a true ninja warrior for the ages.

XandersBrian Review:

Ninja is one of my favorite character in any role plating game due to their skills, I am really upset when I didn't have the chance to purchase the ninja sets when I was a kid before until Ninja has made a re-appearance on this year. I was very excited and purchase several Ninja minifigure so I can build an army of Ninjas in my Lego Collection

This ninja has a black printed tunic, a regular ninja headgear which has a clip at the back for the katana. The head piece has a nice printed face and each package includes two gold katana.

Lego Minifigures Series 1: Forestman

Forestman
“Have no fear, for I am here!” According to www.lego.com

The brave and fearless Forestman is always arriving just in the nick of time to save the day. Whether he’s swinging down on a vine to rescue a damsel in distress, leaping boldly from the castle battlements to duel an evil duke, or making an incredible trick shot with his bow and arrow to help a friend in danger, he is at all times the very model of a chivalrous hero of legend and yore.


The Forestman loves to make a good first impression and is always practicing his dramatic entrances to get them just right. He’d come to the rescue anyway, of course (it’s just in his nature to right wrongs and fight injustice wherever he finds them), but it’s terribly disappointing for him if no one is around to see him gallantly arrive on the scene for his latest feat of swashbuckling derring-do. He’s only sad for a moment, though, and then it’s off to battle the bad guys and save the day once again!

XandersBrian Review:

Wayback before, i always want to have this minifigure when I was a kid. Forestmen are one of the legendary factions of Lego Medieval theme proclaimed in the 1980s for their resourceful strategies against the lego Knights and Bandits. Equipped with bow and arrow, the forestman can take down any enemies and take the treasure away from them to share with the poor.

I purchase five of these to create a small faction on my lego collections. Their head has a printed face similar to the iconic "Robin Hood" and their green printed torso was really nice. This minifigure is equipped with normal bow and arrow weapon, a quiver, and a nice archer hat with red plume. One good thing here is you will also get additional red plume as extra in each package which is very sweet and useful not only to this faction but to any headgear as well.
