"My true family returns..."

Post by Bloody Jay »

Lord Voldemort wrote:"My true family returns..."
Who are they?

The Death Eaters, of course! Lord Voldemort's dark henchmen, ready to commit murder or perform torture at his whim. Without further ado, my Death Eater army (in progress - I still need another dozen or so!).

They're sixteen in number at the moment, not including Voldemort. I thought this would be fun, considering the upcoming movie. I'm in the process of creating a scene for them to inhabit... ;)

Post your thoughts, comments, criticisms, etc. here! :-D


PS - On a side note, as I replaced everything but the head, I now have a crazy amount of long blonde hair, suit torsos, and dementor cloaks. Anyone who wants some, shoot me a PM with an offer. :lol:

Hey,

Looks good. I actually don't think you need any more. In GoF he names all of the ones who show up, and refers to the ones that are not there (in Azkaban, Karakoff, and Crouch/Moody). I didn't have the impression that there was an army of additional Death Eaters out there. Perhaps, though, after his return, Voldemart started building up his forces.

Hey Bruce,

Referring to this page, there are quite a few more than the ones Voldemort named (who were just those in his inner circle, his most trusted minions - they all had precise places to stand around him, hence why there were empty places in the circle when they assembled at the graveyard). Also, it is said that Harry was 'outnumbered thirty to one' in the graveyard. While that's probably a rough guess, I think it's safe to estimate that they numbered at least in the mid-twenties.

Ah, geekiness; how I love thee. ;)

It also says "some he passed in silence," so exactly how many there were is ambiguous... But, yeah, in the mid-twenties fits...

Geekiness! Whee! :P Anyway, these look plenty menacing so far. Visually, I think only a few more would be needed, but the only thing I would change is add a few among them with real robe patterns just to give a little variety. But the uniform look works well, too...

Don't forget Wormtail, though!

Oh... that is soo cool.... I say the more Deatheaters the better... I wanna see Potter squirm! :twisted:

In a LEGO castle context, these figs are perfect for a cult or something... Have any of you ever seen the old "Beastmaster" movie...? I'm thinking I just found a horde of berzerkers.

I must say that these are a great improvement on the Death Eaters TLC designed. These one look far more dark and menacing :twisted:
