favorite mixamals

well first of all if you know me well you’d obviously know that I adore anything crocodilian in nature, so of course I’m a big fan of this guy:

I also found this baboon sorta critter really neat (personally I like to call them “Graboons” due to the extendable arms)

There’s also the Mixaplotapusses, a personal favourite of a good friend of mine and the only confirmed Mixamal species to have sexual dimorphism. Personally I imagine the ones with those big multi-eyed stalks to be the Males and the ones with just 2 eyes to be the Females.

And finally there’s my 2 favourite Mixeloptors, which I refer to as the Bicephalis and the Tyranther respectively:

And those are a brief list of my favourite Mixamals, hope you enjoyed!

Imagine this scene actually happening in EKHID, Mixadel would have been much more savage and iconic.

And may we never try that again.

the Every Knight Has Its Day special is a clear example of how NOT to do a special

Honestly it’s not too bad IMO, I mean sure it’s not the best special by any means (that honour goes to M3) and there’s definitely a few cases of missed potential, but it’s not exactly terrible either. I’d say it’s probably smack-dab in the middle of the Mixels specials ranking from worst to best, it’s alright, it’s ok, it’s decent. It’s no M3 but it also definitely isn’t an NNGA either.

Haven’t posted these sketches from past months for a while. Still miss Mixels (especially Moon Madness and EKHID) though.

Right now Im bombarded with assignments so I wont be posting much art as of now.

I'm more surprised there wasn't a female mixel in any of the series.

uhhhh you do remember they introduced her in EKHID, right?

unless you meant like an official Lego set of a female-presenting Mixel, then yeah I also find that kinda weird since we had other “boy themes” that had girls in them and they got to be in their own sets (Gali and basically all the Ga-Matoran/Water Toa from Bionicle are the prime examples as well as Nya from Ninjago), so to me it seems really weird that Mixels, a theme where Gender is easily one of the least important things ever in the setting, wasn’t allowed to have sets for female characters. But what do I know? I’m not some stupid executive who’s mind and bloated ego has been irreparably corrupted by avarice and capitalism.

Here's my ways to fix nnga

1# have camelot the main protagonist again like in ekhid (every knight has it's day)

2# have the mixel tribe leaders (from 1 to 6) as secondary protagonists

3# when both flain and Camelot announced mixtopious or whatever the hell it's called, about the anniversary of mixing and maxing, they drive them out as exile due to being blinded by king nixel's propaganda speech about how mixing is bad for the economy

4# after their exile, vaka-waka remembered that king nixel tricked them to get the mixamijig but unfortunately thanks to the trap, they have zero idea of how they get back to mixels land (which was previously their old home) but good thing that kramm know the way to there via manhole

5# make it either divide it in multiple episodes or make it a full length feature film

6# after they defeated king nixel (by not breaking dancing ) despite mixtopious destroyed, all of the mixels are back to mixels land

All of that would've made for a better finale than what we officially got back in 2016.

what is your tier list of mixels specials

It would probably look something like this

What kind of memes would you want to see come out of Mixels?

Honestly there's alot of things from Mixels that just absolutely ooze with meme potential, but here I'll list just a few of them:

• Mixadel's unused line from that one early draft of ekhid, AKA "Are you deranged? I would love to have my ass kissed all day"

• Another Mixadel line, this time one that actually did make it into ekhid. The part where he says "Time to do something stupid and irresponsible!"

• Literally anything from M3, I don't care what it is specifically but I hope at least one thing from that episode becomes a meme because it's my favorite episode.

• And last but certainly not least, this unused image from Calling All Mixels has alot of potential for being a good reaction image:

Thank you for coming to my TED Talk about things from Mixels that I hope will become memes in the future

if I'm being honest I never really cared for series 8 or 9 & mixamajig was such a mess I can barely remember which tribes belonged to which series. and tbh if the royal idiots didn't take up more of my brain than I'd like them to I probably wouldn't have bothered to care about any of year 3 this franchise peaked at series 4 - 🎵

Honestly I completely agree with you, not just because of my huge bias towards series 4 but mostly because of the massive drop in quality of everything post-M3. Mixamajig was pretty weird, alot of the characters acted nothing like how they were described in the Lego descriptions, not to mention the massive abundance of animation errors, it's pretty easy to tell it was somewhat rushed. Sure, some parts of Mixamajig may still be salvageable, but I think the best way to fix it is to almost completely rewrite it or something, maybe split it up into two separate specials so we don't have to introduce two whole waves worth of new characters in a single episode, that way everyone gets a fair amount of screentime.

EKHID is probably the best of the Post-M3 episodes IMO, it had the closest animation to the older episodes (using the Chad smooth and clean flash animation over the Virgin weirdly gritty sloppily "hand-drawn" animation), the story was decent, and they didn't try to cram in more than 9 new awesome characters to collect and build in one episode. Of course EKHID does indeed have it's flaws, the noticable absence of Tapsy, the fact that some of the background Mixels had a bigger role than characters with actual sets, and the fact that Camillot's dad really sucked at his job of being a good parent, but in comparison to the other two Post-M3 specials, EKHID's issues aren't nearly as bad.

NNGA. DEAR GOD, NNGA...

NNGA is like if you took the worst aspects of both Mixamajig and EKHID, turned those bad aspects up to 11, put them in a blender, removed the entire point of Mixels from the plot, and basically gave it such a boomer message of "phone = bad". NNGA is littered with animation errors (from what I've been told it apparently has more errors than Mixamajig), the protagonist of the episode not only acts completely out of character from how they've been previously established, but they also made the protagonist a LITERAL BACKGROUND CHARACTER. This background character, who I should probably mention is Booger from the previous episode EKHID, is also a complete Gary Stu, meanwhile a bunch of the characters with actual Lego sets have ironically been reduced to mere background characters, which is honestly just really depressing for long-time fans like myself. LOOK AT HOW THEY MASSACRED MY BOY, POSSIBLY EVEN LITERALLY SINCE SOME PEOPLE THEORIZED THIS STATUE IS A MEMORIAL ONE IMPLYING THAT NIKSPUT IS FUCKING DEAD!

Anyways getting back on track, another cardinal sin of NNGA is that it just, doesn't even feel like a Mixels episode. The characters barely Mix, they don't use the power of mixing to finally defeat the Nixels once and for all, instead we get fucking COORDINATED GROUP DANCING and Gay Laser Big Chungus Booger, a fucking lame and cringe way to kill off King Nixel if you ask me. Also can I just say that the whole premise of the I-Cubits is just such a boomer plot? Like apparently the I-Cubits are supposed to be an allegory/commentary on Apple products, so yeah the whole moral of the story is "Phone = Bad". Ok boomer.

In conclusion I agree with Anon, Mixels peaked with M3 and everything else was just downhill from there.

Is it okay that I really don't like the king? I mean we see a bit of his personality in ekhid when instead of helping camillot decide he just boots him off of the carriage and tells mixadel of all people to look after camillot. Then he doesn't even punish mixadel for setting the mixel versions of fuckin KAIJUS! Also he doesn't seem very attentive to the boys as he doesn't even tell me beforehand that they were going to attend a new school or anything!

I mean at first I didn't really pay that much attention to the King but reading what you have to say about him yeah I kinda agree with you

FUCK THE KING FROM EKHID ALL MY HOMIES HATE THE KING FROM EKHID

What’s your ranking of all of the tribes from least to most in terms of favorites?

Ok time to rate every single fucking tribe from Mixels, starting with the worst and working my way down to the best.

24, Munchos: this tribe always just felt kinda pointless to me, they’re basically just the Fang Gang but purple and with none of the aspects that made the Fang Gang cool. in my eyes the Munchos are the only tribe where they basically wasted a tribe slot on a stupid idea.

23, MCFD: Turnip before you come to my house and hold me at gunpoint for putting the MCFD this low, please allow me to explain myself. It’s not that I hate the idea of a firefighter tribe, in theory that does sound kinda cool, my problem with the tribe is that in practice, the MCFD are actually a very limited tribe to come up with design ideas for.

22, Nindjas: not that I hate the concept of a tribe based on ninjas/Japanese mythology and culture, but to me at least this tribe feels more like Lego simping over Ninjago than actually making a tribe that represents what are basically the Japan Mixels in any meaningful way. not to mention that their color palette is basically identical to the Flexers, they should’ve been white with red and/or pink accents smh.

21, Trashoz: ok so you guys may be wondering, ”Golly gee Mod Niksput, why the fuck did you rank the literal fucking GARBAGE TRIBE higher than the ninja tribe?” and to that I say, I honestly don’t know. I guess I’m just that salty about how the ninja tribe was executed. at least the garbage tribe is a bit more accurate to it’s inspiration? granted I constantly forget which Trashoz are which and sometimes even forget that the tribe even exists, but still at least they have a color palette that isn’t basically identical to another tribe.

20, MCPD: wow I must really not be a big fan of the 2016 tribes, but anyway for what they are, the MCPD are actually pretty alright. the main reason why they’re so low is because, well, they’re basically cops. and nowadays cops aren’t exactly seen in the most, positive light, and seeing how Lego decided to stop making Police-themed sets in the Lego City line around the time police brutality became an issue, I wouldn’t really be surprised if the MCPD was erased from the canon in a potential Mixels reboot/revival.

19, Lixers: I’m mostly just kinda neutral on the Lixers, I honestly don’t have much to say on them. on a semi-related sidenote, did you know that Turg caused a controversy and was actually temporarily banned in another country because his Lego description contained an offensive word? granted he was shortly unbanned after his Lego description got changed and it was the UK that got offended so does it really matter that much?

18, Fang Gang: oh hey it’s the tribe that Lego made useless lean-coloured ripoffs of! I also don’t have much to say about them, I do like jawg though.

17, Medix: the medical theme these guys have is pretty neat, that’s about it really.

16, Flexers: I don’t have much to say about these guys, but I do sometimes like to think that these guys were secretly the air tribe this whole time because they live in these floating sky houses.

15, Mixies: if it wasn’t for how cool Jamzy was in EKHID, this tribe would probably be way lower, they do get some points docked however for Trumpsy basically just being a background character and Tapsy not even showing up in the episode outside of the intro.

14, Newzers: Screeno has basically become a meme in the Mixels Wiki Discord server, so I’ve kinda warmed up to the tribe because of that. the Max looks fucking awful though.

13, Spikels: this tribe is actually pretty good, it mostly places so low because of Scorpi’s dead weight.

12, Pyrratz: ok first of all, love the pirate theme, it’s a really fun idea and a more interesting and less creatively limiting concept for a water tribe. second, the Max is easily one of if not the best one that Mixels has to offer. unfortunately this tribe suffers from the same problem as the Mixies, where one of the members of the tribe, Lewt in this case, doesn’t even show up in the episode besides the intro.

11, Medivals: here it is, my favorite 2016 tribe, it mostly ranks this high because of EKHID, but also because Mixadel has the same VA as Kaos from Skylanders and I love it. I’m also one of Camillot’s surrogate dads now (even though I’m a female) so I’m kinda obligated to rank his tribe higher up.

10, Weldos: chainsaws are cool, what can I say? they also have a pretty cool max too, a shame that they barely did anything in Mixamajig and literally only showed up at the end.

9, Klinkers: steampunk is cool, what can I say? too bad that Gox seems to be basically Mr Krabs but a Mixel.

8, Cragsters: I just think they’re neat

7, Glorp Corp: they’re G R E E N . also I like the idea of them being a poison tribe.

6, Frosticons: ice tribe, admittedly it’s mostly Flurr and I guess also Krog and Lunk carrying the tribe, because admittedly the others have kinda meh designs and the only other one with an interesting design, Snoof, is an asshole. overall they’re a pretty solid tribe though.

5, Electroids: this is a really good tribe, a perfect electricity tribe, they also have easily the best Max of series 1.

4, Wiztastics: good ol’ magic tribe! fantastic tribe concept, wonderful execution of said concept, great personalities among the individual members, just A+ scores across the board.

3, Glowkies: can I just say that I’m so glad that they didn’t make this tribe all evil and edgy and stuff like how other franchises do with darkness and bat-themed creatures/characters? in fact they went out of their way to make the Glowkies the exact opposite of that, highly social party animals that live for the art of performance and probably only live in the moon caves because its basically the only place that’s fully habitable. all that aside I love these guys, the way they completely subverted expectations with a tribe like this is absolutely amazing in my eyes and I love the glow-in-the-dark eyes that the lego sets have.

2, infernites: fire is cool, what can I say? this is easily the best of the 6-member tribes, and I think that all 6 of them are all really great Mixels in their own right. these guys are easily the franchise’s most iconic tribe, with Flain basically being the Agumon of the series. Burnard was even in Lego Worlds! despite all this, there’s still one more tribe that ranks even higher than them…

1, Orbitons: yeah, you guys probably saw this one coming from a continent away, but what can I say? the Orbitons are just such an amazing tribe. amazing concept, a tribe based on astronauts and aliens that live on an isolated colony on the moon. they’re G R E E N . the fact that one of them is literally my all-time favorite character. but the one thing that I think the Orbitons have above all the others is one simple thing: mystery. think about it, in M3, the Orbitons do explain why they abduct the Infernite cousins, and we even get to see the highly advanced technology they have access to. but we never get an explanation as to WHY the Orbitons live on the moon, and more importantly, HOW they even got there in the first place. were they just kinda always there like the Glowkies are? were they artificially created through secret government experimentation on a secret lab on the moon for some unknown purpose but then were just abandoned there for equally unknown reasons? and a little observation about Niksput, but he seems to possess a lot more black on his body than the other 2, he also seems to be much less mechanical than the others as well, is this a sign that Niksput is actually an Orbiton/Glowkie hybrid? and I can go on and on all day about theories and speculation on the Orbitons, of course this kind of speculation can be done with the other tribes too, but there’s just something about the Orbitons specifically that makes theories about them extra juicy and intriguing.

So there you have it, my ranking of every mixel tribe from worst to best, hope this gives you an accurate look at my preferences in terms of mixel tribes because hoo boy this took alot of time to write!
