Year Released
2018; released as part of the Avengers: Infinity War wave which signaled a shift toward highly detailed alien 'army builder' figures.
Rarity
Common; this figure appeared in numerous sets across different price points, making it very easy for collectors to acquire in large numbers.
Head
Pearl Gold with black and silver face printing; features a multi-eyed, insectoid/monstrous snarling expression with metallic detail. No hair or headgear pieces.
Torso
Light Bluish Gray with gold and dark brown armor printing on front and back. Features purple hands. Notable for the unique neck bracket attachment usually included to facilitate extra arms.
Legs
Light Bluish Gray with dark brown and gold armor plating prints on the front of the hips and legs.
Accessories
Usually equipped with a black neck bracket (part 21459) and four additional outrider arms (claw pieces), though the base figure shown is missing the arm attachments.
Color Scheme
Light Bluish Gray, Pearl Gold, and Dark Brown with accents of Purple (hands) and Black/Silver (face).
Printing Details
High-quality pad printing on the head, torso (front/back), and legs (front). The alignment is typically consistent with 2018 production standards.
Variants
There is a standard 2-arm version (sh230) from the 2016 era, but this sh505 version is specifically designed for the 6-armed 'Extended' look from Infinity War.
Condition Notes
Prone to loose neck brackets and scratches on the gold head printing; the purple hands can sometimes show stress marks if weapons are forced into them.
Estimated Value
Used: $2.00 - $4.00 USD. New: $5.00 - $7.00 USD. Value is low due to high production volume.
Price (New)
Available in sets ranging from $14.99 (76101 Outrider Dropship Attack) to $99.99 (76108 Sanctum Sanctorum Showdown).
Compatible Sets
76101 Outrider Dropship Attack, 76103 Corvus Glaive Thresher Attack, 76104 The Hulkbuster Smash-Up, 76108 Sanctum Sanctorum Showdown.
Character Background
Genetically engineered mindless killing machines used by Thanos as expendable shock troops for the Black Order during the invasion of Earth.
Design Notes
Innovative use of the 1x1 neck bracket with four studs to allow a minifigure to have six limbs, accurately capturing the creature's silhouette from the film.
Similar Minifigures
Chitauri Warriors, Sakaaran Soldiers, and General Outrider (sh512).
Collectibility
Low individual value but high 'army building' appeal. Most Marvel collectors own 5 to 20 of these to recreate the Battle of Wakanda.
History
Debuted in March 2018 to coincide with the release of Avengers: Infinity War; represented the first time LEGO attempted a six-armed grunt at this scale.
Interesting Facts
Despite having six arms in the movie, LEGO versions are often displayed with only two or four arms in promotional materials due to stability concerns.
Display Suggestions
Best displayed in large groups on a tan or olive green baseplate to simulate the Wakandan battlefield; looks great surrounding a Captain America or Black Panther figure.
Modification Potential
Excellent for MOCs requiring alien insects or monsters; the gold head is a popular part for custom space-themed builds.
Overall Assessment
A solid, well-detailed army builder that is essential for Marvel fans but holds little financial 'grail' value due to its commonality.
