In my humble opinion Timmy is going to get some serious competition for the
most annoying looking mini fig. I was looking at the Alpha Team part of the
new brochure and saw, among a number of perfectly well adjusted LEGO
minifigs, the fig with a really big mouth. Thankfully it doesnt look like
this head will proliferate throughout sets as Timmy has (knock on wood).So
on that count Timm'ys title is still in tact. But this new fig just looks evil.
Just some thoughts

| (...) Definitely looks like he got a big dose of Smilex. I don't know what LEGO is thinking with the new style on the 'figs. These things (the faces from Racers, the Construction set from 2000, and especially Alpha Team) are just stoopid. Steve (24 years ago, 26-Oct-00, to lugnet.build.minifigs)

| (...) Pshaw. I can think of at least one use where the new minifig head will be PERFECT: As kamikaze in BrikWars campaigns. Adrian -- www.brickfrenzy.com (24 years ago, 26-Oct-00, to lugnet.build.minifigs)

In fact, several of the Alpha Team seem to be Anime (...) (24 years ago, 26-Oct-00, to lugnet.build.minifigs)

| I don't mind this insanely happy fig. He kinda reminds me of that guy that's always screaming on the Dilbert cartoon show. I don't mind that Lego is creating people with personalities. I mean, how much personality can you instill in a fig that looks (...) (24 years ago, 27-Oct-00, to lugnet.build.minifigs)
