@@minifigsinspace I never played it myself, I just read it on Brickipedia. Apparently, the game is called: "LEGO Legacy: Heroes Unboxed", and he is named Locus there, suggesting his full name is Locus Webb. Combining some of the Insectoid characters' alternate names works well in some cases (Zec Wizer sounds good) but not for others (Steel Danny Longlegs or Sharp Gypsy Moth. I guess in their cases, Steel and Sharp might just be nicknames given to them due to their talents.)
Great video and really appreciated too as I'm very hungry for content featuring Blacktron as they're so mysterious and fascinating. I consider Blacktron the bad guys but there's more to them than just "moustache twirling" villians. I think of them as a crime syndicate and to survive and thrive in the harshness of space they must have many qualities. They have first and foremost loyalty to each other, they have intelligence as they're often outnumbered by the combined forces of Futuron, M-Tron and the Space Police, they have to have a good sense for business to find markets to deal and sell in stolen goods and lastly to occasionally exploit galactic politics to call truces and make alliances when needed. The other factions may despise Blacktron and everything they do but there is a begrudging respect for them. Hail BLACKTRON!!!
Thank you for the kind words! I'm happy to hear that the Blacktron content was informative :D I certainly agree that Blacktron spacemen are more than "shallow" villains, they have a lot of depth to their character. I believe this has become more evident with the CMF appearances, as it highlights their varying professions and motivations.
@@minifigsinspaceTo underline to what you've just said to my knowledge from all the classic space themes Blacktron has made the most appearances in the CMF series which says to me that it's one of the most beloved factions from that era. PLEASE Lego give us more Blacktron as the gwp set from 2023 isn't nearly enough to satisfy our appetite, it just whetted it.
No way! I guess I shouldn't be too surprised though, considering your entire channel is devoted to Blacktron 😂 In all seriousness, that's really cool! It's not often I happen to have the same collection of minifigs as someone else :)
Hello! From my research into the lore of Blacktron, I have not found LEGO to have designated any particular leader of Blacktron (which in my opinion is a huge bummer). That could of course change in the future, but currently the answer appears to be no. I hope this helps! Thank you for stopping by :)
@@minifigsinspace only im a lil confused cuz if u search who is the leader of blacktron lego on google they say that its emperor blackhead but when u search blacktron emperor blackhead u find nothing its normal if u dont know just wandering
Apparently, Professor Webb, one of the characters from Lego Insectoids, has been identified as a member of Blacktron in some video game.
Oh, that's fascinating! Do you happen to remember which video game it was? I haven't come across that lore before so I'm curious to explore it.

5:09 This reminds me this is the CMF series from which LEGO stopped writing bios for their minifigures, man do I miss those.
I sure do miss those too, it was part of what made me buy some of the minifigures :)

@@oedo.4959 HAIL!
I didn't know Blacktron employed Chiss.
Neither did I! I'm afraid I don't know who that is, can you explain? :)
Publishing military intel is always risky pal. Be very careful out there.
Thank you sir, your caution has been well received ;)
What if we get a BLACKTRON Minifigure with a BLACKTRON BABY figure in a future CMF Series?
Ooooo, now there's an idea! I would totally be down for that 😂
@minifigsinspace we did get the Brown Spaceman with the Blue Space baby it basically the same Idea
If you belive it or not. I have all of them.😂

That's interesting, do they cite their sources for Emperor Blackhead? Is it from official LEGO sources?
No problem! Glad you enjoyed it :)
