Lego News Block: New Exo-Force on the Way

by

During the New York 2007 Toy Fair, Lego had some groovy new Exo-Force sets. It’s time to give the series the respect and I’ve been meaning to give for awhile now. Even though I detest nearly 99% of all anime, I do love giant robots and I ended up getting Stealth Hunter, Grand Titan, and the Toys R Us exclusive (and best mech so far) Supernova before I could stop myself. My roommate has the sweet looking tank, the Mobile Defense Tank and I have to say that I’m pretty envious.

If you don’t dig on the anime style pilots, but love giant robots like me, my solution was to ditch them in favor of some spare clone mini-figs I got laying around. Hey, if there can be 78 different planet destroying weapons in the Star Wars Expanded Universe, then clones can pilot mechs.

The last wave of figures was just as cool, the Shadow Crawler, which features a skeleton in a rear “prison pod.”

Prison pod my ass, that’s a vat of acid. Just look at that awesome skeleton in that bubble. I bet he’d tell you that wasn’t no normal prison cell, but he can’t because the evil robots melted his pink spikey haired skin off.

With the new Exo-Force sets coming down the pipe, this series keeps getting better. Head on over to Figures.com for some sweet pictures of the upcoming sets, including a big wheeled vehicle that has enough room on it for one of the medium sized mechs on the back. If your mind is blown, don’t blame me.
