Lego 2011

Just saw some photos of the new sets coming out on another forum, the guys flickr got taken down though. But from what i saw:

new Atlantis sets, one with a huge fish with massive teeth like a piranha
some kind of adventurer egyptian style theme with flying mummies, a massive cobra snake, adventurers with an aeroplane, motorbike, a truck half track thing and what looked like a sphynx that was movable.
Also saw a photo of 2 new star wars sets, a clone trooper battle pack with 4 troopers and something similar to the speeder bike, and also a mandalorian battle pack with little minifigs that look like jango fett.

And finally, perhaps my favorite of the new stuff. a new theme of ninjas! called ninjago or something. looked pretty bad ass

Pictures from the retailer's catalog have been leaked.
Lego is usually aggressively fast when it comes to getting them removed from websites. Just do a search for them if your interested.

I don't know if I like the colour change for the Atlantis theme. I don't think it looks bad, its more of a question of why. Are they a different crew, or is it because they went through the portal to Atlantis

The Star Wars battle packs look interesting. The Clones look kinda meh, would have preferred a regular clone instead of the second orange one (bomb squad I think)
Good to see the Manalorians. Can see why they changed the Boba Fett helmet. Now it has more uses.

The Space theme looks good too. I like the look of the space shuttle.

Not sure about the Egyptian theme. Some sets look great, others not so much

Sweet, new Police to get me pulled in already deeper than I should be

I'm loving the Egyptian themed one! So much potential for great architecture or even re-creating the original Stargate

Ninjas are a welcome return too, however this seems to be a more child/gimmick orientated line. While i'm pleased that the skeletons are involved in this theme it still seems very odd as ninjas and skeletons are not what I would call traditional enemies.

I'm so going broke.

Egyptian stuff looks cool, Ninjas are a disappointment, too similar to crap like Exo-Farce.

the ninjas looks like it is a game......

series three mini figures.... build an army of apes!!

Am I the only one who thinks it's bizarre that the Atlantis source material is written as if the treasure-hunting humans are the good guys and the sea creatures are "evil"?

(I think they're great sets though.)

I thought this as well.

I also thought it rather odd that the Space Police are all human and the Criminals are all Aliens

The lego pirates of the caribbean sets look stunning :)

Would that make the sets alien-ist? :)

I liked it better when it was Space Police I vs. the Black-suited Blacktrons.

Also, the gun and dynamite-wielding, graverobbing humans are the heroes of Pharaoh's Quest, while the mummies whose tombs and jewels are being ransacked are 'evil' too.

There's certainly some kind of 'ism' going on, that's for sure. :)
