It works for those who are familiar with it and those who are not. I think continuing the story of Squidman with a similar looking minifigure was a good idea. His ray gun has been used by aliens and humans alike – even sponges, apparently – but only he has it in this color. He has a very sci-fi looking purple and gray outfit, complete with a very complex breathing apparatus on his chest. He is the first collectible minifigure to have a moulded head, but it has been used before in Squidman and Squidtron, although the color of those is gray. Let’s take him apart, shall we? (Yeah, we don’t need to translate that) What? You don’t expect me to speak alien, do you? Of course we’re going to use a translator to communicate! I have to say, though, his translator may say “conqueror” and “king”, but the way he describes this Squidman character, “criminal” and “thief” would be better suited. He only answers to one king called Squidman, and he proudly carries out his every deed. Tongue Face) tells me he comes from a race of conquerors. So when I saw the official LEGO name for our first minifigure – Space Alien (CMF 3) – I thought, wait, is there another kind of alien? I’m still trying to figure that one out, but the Classic Alien (CMF 6) did make it a bit easier to distinguish between the two. Instead, I give them new names, and they’re usually something between “silly face” and “cool guy” (not very creative, I know). I usually don’t know the official names of LEGO minifigures.
I can imagine a child go “pew pew” with the so-called evil ones, but I just say “I’m sorry, you don’t look that scary” and burst into laughter. They are quite original and honestly, very silly-looking. The aliens are by far my favorite space minifigures in the CMF series. But right now, without knowing their stories, without knowing how they came to be, I think I’m allowed to be a bit critical. It’s as if they ran out of ideas and someone said “Hey, let’s make this guy again, but in a different color!” Of course, the same thing can be said about other minifigures, too. While I appreciate the variety in general, some of them just don’t feel right. I have more than half of them, some because I liked them, some because of the blindbag.
SQUIDMAN STORY SERIES
There are over 20 space related minifigures in the CMF series – and don’t worry, we won’t be talking about all of them this week. I admit, I was always a pirates & knights kinda girl, but I never said no to LEGO Space sets. The M-Tron and Blacktron sets followed them, and then the Exploriens, Mars Mission, Ice Planet… so I’ve had my fair share of spacemen and aliens. The first spacemen I had were from the Futuron sets, and to this day, they hold a special place in my heart. You see, when I was little, the minifigures known as Classic Spacemen have already come and gone. Let me warn you, though, I tend to get a bit critical when it comes to LEGO Space. Right, the animals! No, no, we did that too… hmm, I’m getting forgetful in my old age… oh wait, I know, today we’ll take a look at the collectible LEGO Space minifigures!
SQUIDMAN STORY SKIN
While Squidman did creation Potions of Poison for others to use, he refused to use them himself and refused to kill. He used his knowledge of potions to his advantage, using Splash Potions of Slowness and Swiftness on police officers and himself respectively to escape when close to being arrested. The experiment was a success, creating Squidman.Īt some point, Squidman ran away from the Institute and became a well known potion brewer and criminal. In 1989, an experiment was carried out in the Titan Institute of Technology to create a Minecraftian/Squid Hybrid, using the dead body of an unnamed individual.
