Tiger 53121: Four King of Glory Minifigs with Mini Builds Preview

Thanks to Goh Yong for the heads up!






Might be worth getting for the minifig parts alone? Although the mini build parts also look good! 

I don't have any experience with Tiger brand though so I can't tell if quality is good or bad. I'll try to get my hands on some Tiger set to at least have an idea.

Also, is that blue one driving a BMW..... Hahaha

  1. I'm fairly intrigued by B. It's an interesting looking figure that green one.
    Looks to be feminine as well.

    I know nothing about King of Glory, but I've picked up a few sets for the nephews for gifts, and kept one or two figures that caught my fancy. Interesting.

    1. Yeah I was very intrigued by that black+green one too. And yeah, I also don't know anything about KoG but the designs look great

    2. That black+green one is Sun Shangxiang, who was a daughter of a warlord around 200 AD. Good example to get an idea of how KoG works. Most of these characters represent famous historic or legendary persons, and even some gods, and most of the characters have at least two "variants" (seems to depend on the in-game level). The interpretation of those existing characters / myths is a bit weird though, it's really much more fantasy than historic. In case there are several variants there can be one which seems to be located in the future, thus the sci-fi look. The "basic" Sun Shangxiang version is represented by the bright green minifig in OBM 99066 (see http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-QhdIczVqn0Q/WSdvSweotxI/AAAAAAAATQg/nEN5q_1zS0YoIzLl21ZWVzfVh9wYFUbYQCK4B/s1600/obm%2B99066.jpg ). But it's rather a chance finding that both variants are dressed in green, the "intermediate" levels/variants look like manga girls with different hair colours (two of those pink hair), there's no proper "evolution" taking place in the sense of getting better armour or such.

      The guy in 53121C is Lü Bu, a famous general and warlord. It's the 4th variant, the 1st one is the grey warrior in e.g. DLP9053 / LERO 10002 / SY655.

      The guy in 53121D is Zhao Yun, also a famous general from Three Kingdoms period. Again, it's the last evolution.

      But if one is not into the game (I'm not myself, just looked at the official website as I tried to find out what the "historic" looking minifigs represent) it's basically useless to know, as there's really no proper connection between a sci-fi minifig and a historic general. ;)

    3. BTW, there are several new KoG sets, especially by Sembo:
      SY679
      Sembo 11838-41 https://detail.1688.com/offer/562194677630.html?spm=a2615.7691456.0.0.25c9c698K3vJpj
      Sembo 11858-61 https://detail.1688.com/offer/562265114101.html?spm=a2615.2177701.0.0.7ab78c45MAL2tJ
      Sembo 11878-81 https://detail.1688.com/offer/562343336950.html?spm=a2615.7691456.0.0.25c9c698K3vJpj

      Some of those seem to come with new minifigs and/or minifigs that had been available in larger sets only.
