Latest Legends of Chima magazine out now
Posted by Huw,
Issue 3 of the Legends of Chima magazine can now be found in newsagents and Tesco. Once again it has a free minifig on the cover, this time it's Grumlo who's only appearance in sets so far has been in Gorzan's Gorilla Striker.
He's wearing silver armor instead of the brown he has on in 70008 and his hammer has some embellishments. Furthermore, he has a shield like those in the Legend Beast sets, and also a gold spear which isn't in the photo. So, overall it's not too shabby.
However, this could be the last minfig we see on the cover: next month's magazine comes with a random selection of parts to make a Speedorz ramp.

I'll definitely be picking up a few of these, they look awesome, and I don't have any of the Chima gorillas. Is the head mould the same as the one from Minifigures series 3?
^ No it isn't, it's a new gorilla head mould introduced in the summer.
You know it's good value when he has light grey hands!
Is the spear the classic spear or the new LOTR/CMF spear? I'm hoping for the former; I'm trying to get my hands on one after losing the only one I had, since if it IS the former, it'll hopefully lower BL prices, which isn't high to start with, though...
Classic
Possible to have a picture about the Speedorz ramp ?
I ordered my today, so I hope it comes soon.
The ramp is pretty lame, I hope they'll go back to the figures after that issue.
bought 6x of these lol
Just got one nice figure for £3.25 The mag's a good read too !
^^^ The link in the article leads to a shop that seems to shop to Aus.
Picked up two from my local newsagents today! Will be displaying one as is but without his weapon and armour. The other I'll be using parts from to create an alternative S11 Yeti.
I just put him together, I love this figure! I'm not mad about the Chima line in general but I do like the Minifigures for the most part. This fella is one of my favourites, along with the skunk and wolf. And his expression is really nice and placid, unlike the scary faces most of the other figures display! :P Well worth the £3.25 price (or €4.75 in Ireland) for the minifigure and magazine (especially if there are younger members in the family; I'll give the mag to them and keep the figure for myself haha). I've seen the magazine in a lot of different newsagents too so it's pretty widely available here too. :)
This is a nice figure, with a small olive branch and the new hammer head.
The Next issue is out on 29th Jan and is possibly even better, with two or three of the lime green vines and three lime green mushroom heads, along with a few other parts to make the ramp. It looks like 19 or 20 bits of lego altogether, which is not too bad.
I'll try an scan the image later, unless somebody gets there first.
I may have to buy 4 or 5 of the next issue, if Tesco give me another voucher.
Anyone know where other chima magazine figures or parts where they might be in the database? Can't find the most recent ones , any Info thanks
