Thoughts:
Knight- its a knight. Pretty generic/boring. Not much to say
Human Chicken - o_O what on mars? Also, new arm molds? Can't wait to see what the NPU MOCers do with those
Space Orc- if I didn't know better i'd think this was a MOCfig. Looks like an Atlantis diver with new space armor/helmet, and a castle Orc face. Not a lot new here.
Cop- eh, rehash-y, but I like that hat.
Cyclops - niiice, I see this guy becoming a must-have for both fantasy and sci-fi builders. But is it just me or is Lego making more and more pre molded heads? Not sure how I feel about that....
Gypsy - she's cool. I like the hair, dresses in Lego are always welcome, and are those tarot cards?
Power Ranger- That doesn't even look Lego, looks more like brickforge/other custom bricks....actually now that I think of it isn't that one of the heads from the new galaxy quest line?
Judge? I think its a judge - hair just looks weird IMHO. Hammer (gavel?) and face are great tho. They should have made an iPhone brick for him, his role as injustice of the peace would be more clear that way.
Jeckyl/Hyde- nothing too special here sadly.....
Mermaid - lots of Lego mermaids already, what makes this one different? Also will be very easy to pick out due to the tail.
Larry The Cable Guy-aren't there like a hundred minifig overalls already? Plunger is hilarious tho.
Skater Chick - xD she's awesome. Also, Lego roller blades are epic, epic win.
Ceaser (Not the salad) - great looking all around, one of the most polished figures here IMHO. Also there can never be enough Lego Romans.
Maralyin Monroe - I repeat everything I said about the gypsy (except the tarot cards) Good things.
Waiter - He's french. I can tell. Its hilarious. Great face, great accessories. Are those flesh hands tho? o_O
Merideth - so Lego made an unofficial brave fig. Nice =P Gotta say tho, I love her. Great dress, great hair, great shield. Can't wait to see someone MOC an oak tree faction into the lego castle world
My favorites are the Cyclops, Gypsy, Skater Chick, and Merideth. Ceaser gets an honorable mention too.
A lot of dissapointing ones in this line sadly. They just seem less polished than previous lines. Even the ones I like still seem... bland, as compared to past collectible mini figs. And no back printing on any of them (except the Cyclops) - what's up with that?
Just my 20¢
