  Re: Do we have a name for the new figs?
 
(...) You miss the point. I am talking about a name for the whole class of figs, which would include martians, battle droids, and whatever else Lego comes out with in the future that uses this construction style. (...) I'm OK with the look of the (...) (24 years ago, 29-Nov-00, to lugnet.build.minifigs, lugnet.year.2001)

  Re: white hair & grey hair ...are these old folks only in one set
 
(...) Grey printed beards are a little older, the Wild West sets have a head with a grey beard (see (URL) ). I think this was also used in some Pirate sets. Of course we also need the beard piece in grey and dark grey, black might also be nice. (...) (24 years ago, 29-Nov-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.build.minifigs)
 
  Re: Do we have a name for the new figs?
 
(...) Yeah. How about: Martians I actually have been meaning to post that after getting all the LoM sets (apart from the big base, which no one seems to have found yet) I quite like the martians, which surprises me, because frankly I expected to (...)

(...) Just an FYI, Only the torso and arms are Battle Droid parts. The Legs are actually more organic and bent at the knee. The are still fuzed like the BD lets though. Eric Kingsley The New England LEGO Users Group (URL) (24 years ago, 29-Nov-00, to lugnet.build.minifigs, lugnet.year.2001)
 
  Re: Do we have a name for the new figs?
 
Hehe, I personaly like the battle droid "figs" but the legs would be ALOT beter if they wern't attached together... Now the alien figs, that's another story, LEGO could have done better. I'd think they'd look rather robotic with those BD parts, but (...) (24 years ago, 29-Nov-00, to lugnet.build.minifigs, lugnet.year.2001)
 
  Re: white hair & grey hair ...are these old folks only in one set
 
(...) The Alpha Team sets look to have a head like this, and it is the only one that looks decent to me.. (...) The closest to that is in the Divers sets. Only problem is that the head has a microphone. Ick. (24 years ago, 29-Nov-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.build.minifigs)
 
  Re: white hair & grey hair ...are these old folks only in one set
 
(...) btw, I was suprised to see the 'Spielberg' head in a spaceport set! I thought it was new!

In lugnet.general, Frank Filz writes, among other things: (...) I agree except for the Indian braids... in grey could be for a shaman or wise-woman. I have this Playmobil shaman (URL) has grey pigtails, and he looks great. On the subject of old (...) (24 years ago, 29-Nov-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.build.minifigs)
 
  Do we have a name for the new figs?
 
I can't imagine that this hasn't been discussed, but I don't see anything on it. Now that the battle droid bodies are being used for the martians, I expect that they are here to stay. Hence, we need a general name for the whole class of figures. I (...) (24 years ago, 29-Nov-00, to lugnet.build.minifigs, lugnet.year.2001)
