Sometimes I confuse even myself.

Let’s put it into two different perspectives:

Animator’s perspective:
For example, we have 15 animators involved in the project, but only 4 have the resources needed to create the Final fight scene. That means the other 11 animators (with their limited resources) can only animate their own subscenes and maybe their own fight scenes.

Character perspective:
Same scenario with only 4 animators: This doesn’t necessarily mean only the 4 animator’s characters can be in the fight scene. If these animators can build other characters that the other 11 animators have, then hurray, more characters involved in the battle scenes.

Put it this way, just because you can’t animate the big battle of Good vs. Evil doesn’t mean that your character can’t. It’s up to those animators who can to work you into their scenes.

And it looks like we’re going more towards the Evil Robot idea. As Lord_Of_The_LEGO stated in chat, better to battle against faceless automatons than the alternative. Plus, this gives all you animators a change to be creative with making robot figs and experiment with additional articulations (depending on your robot design).

If there is anyone who wants to be involved with this project but is in favor of a different antagonist, let us know.

Just to add to what I said about people with limitations or inability to fully master their powers, it allows you to think both inside and outside the box when your new found power doesn’t work. For example, it requires a lot of focus to control certain abilities, such as someone with ADD is restraining a bunch of robots using Plasma-based constructs (Green Lantern powers) when he’s distracted by something and looses focus. Add your comedic interpretation there.

Maybe this robot? It might need a little tweaking to be a little more animatable though.

Lech I like your number 2 idea best. ROBOTS like that. As I think I have said before I don’t think I would like to take part in the animation part but I would love to help on this progect in other ways.

Hmmmmm. If I had Super powers First thing I would do would be…well You’ll find out

/me passes out.

I can handle certain types of customization, but cutting a LEGO brick is going too far. Think of it as… torture.

I didn’t cut, I drilled! I can take the site of molten plastic and chopped up bodies, if the result looks nice. I only drilled 2 holes, and glued one thing. I didn’t say you guys had to use this, it’s just what I plan to use.
fftopic: I just painted my Lizard fig. It looks pretty awesome.
