Swamp Creature

This entire series is an outstanding release with minor rant such as the repeated inclusion of Unikitty design. Overall, I would said this is quite a remarkable release including fulfilling the distribution ratio with 3 complete sets in a sealed box. This alone, is a huge winner to ensure the distribution spread is done appropriately. Furthermore, I also noted with the minifigure neck marking increased the tightness and grip of the head and neck. This is actually great for CMFs which was previously lacking. more less

Overall The LEGO Movie 2 Collectible Minifigures (71023) series is a pretty interesting one with a number of characters that you wouldn't really expect to see in one of the sets. My favorite one is probably the Giraffe guy as well as the Wizard of Oz crew which are some popular ones among fans. There are also some questionable inclusions such as Emmet and Unikitty. Do we really need another of their variants even though they have been heavily featured in the sets and Unikitty in her series from last year? more less

Hailing from the land of the Monster Fighters, The Swamp Creature has turned out to be a leather enthusiast in the apocalypse. The lime green torso is an updated design from the green version in the previous iteration, and he's picked up leather suspenders and a wicked tattoo. His legs are dual-molded with brown shorts and green leg bottoms. He carries a standard brown whip. Don't ask why. more less

I found a few surprises looking through the set, especially with the UV: Bright Green seems to be particularly Bright. I wonder how other elements in this colour look?. Orange is inconsistent: some versions of Bright Orange Fluoresce, others do not. Likewise red: I have some fuselage elements joined together at home: some fluoresce, others don't! Some ‘Bright' colours don't seem to glow at all. Overall, it's a pretty diverse collection! more less

Many retired minifigures appeared as Master Builders during The LEGO Movie, including the Swamp Creature. The original animated character was based upon 9461 The Swamp Creature from Monster Fighters but the new minifigure is unique, featuring a bright green head accessory with flippers on the sides and a fin on top. The head underneath has also been updated very slightly so the printing looks more refined. more less
