he "discovery of the decade" is how scientists are labelling the detection of a new minifig species in the nadirs of the Playmobilian Andonien rainforest. An expeditionary team of scientists ventured into the remotest corner of the kingdom and uncovered the existence of the Pandor tribe, a tribe comprising of solely entirely brown skinned minifigs whom anthropologists have termed “negfigroes” due to their similarities with the recent phenomenon of “nigfig” plastic surgery requests.
The negfigroes are a “complex minifigure species” according to Dr Fibbert Clayton, Head of the Emperor David University’s School of Evolutionary Anthropology. “The most amazing thing about these minifigures is their unique skin tones and skulls.
The skulls are different from both the Classic Heads and Hole Head
anatomical families. To the naked eye the skulls are clearly different but radiological scans show the differences are not confined to external superficial traits but are also present in the facet of the frontal and parietal bones”. The skulls type has been classified as “Sub Heads”.
Dr Clayton confirmed his team will announce to the scientific world the results of their studies on the tribe’s genetics and anatomical make-up later this month at a presentation to the Imperial Forum on Evolution.
Among its findings is one expected to raise some controversy, a theory on the intelligence capacity or otherwise of negfigroes. With a smaller brain capacity to that of the yellowfig, a negfigroe’s capacity to learn, develop and compute complex problems has been questioned.
Sub-species could be turned into "edible" biscuits
he leader of the right-wing extremist Legoland First party, Norbert Isen, has shocked members of parliament today by declaring that Negfigroes
may be edible and, if "harvested",
"could dramatically drive down the cost of food commodities".
Addressing the Hall of Minifigs, Isen claimed that figrolls could be replaced by negfigrolls for "after dinner treats".
Empire raking in the cash through "slave trade"
State Economic Bureau stats show increasing incomes for State from slavery practice
ales of "slaves" between October and December 2011 has seen the population of the Empire decrease by over 100 'figs, all ethnic Spacefigs, according to figures released by the SEB.

Lego football's tinkering to continue
LFA may replace lower leagues with cup competition for Serie B promotion
he LFA are considering whether to slash the number of divisions in the Legoland Series from its current 6 tiers to 2. The calls have been made by a growing number of
lower league sides whom perceive that there is little or no realistic chance of reaching the promised land of Serie A. The governing body has said it will consider the idea
at its annual review meeting later this month. Suggestions have been tabled calling for a 2 tier division league with a knock-out cup competition involving the clubs from outside the 2
division determining the candidates for promotion to the Serie B.
The Legoban have denied all involvement in the attack
Legoban cell accused of foreign car bombing
The Government of the Federation of Legopolis has accused the Legoban of carrying out a carbomb attack that destroyed a multi-story carpark in the capital Legopolis. The attack killed 2 minifigs according to
local news agency LC1. The Empire's emissary to the Federation, Gregory Mons-Ricard, may have been the target of the attack but local security forces were quick to point out that he has
escaped unharmed.
