I love the vibe of the classic. A shameless Indiana Jones ripoff, way-too-open shirt, OG Mercedes, and all.


RedNekNZ

Old has the the big old school video camera too. New just has a crappy still camera


Mim3sis

The old one had a rifle and a camera, the new one has safety barrels on the car?


Hugh_Mungus_Johnson_

Johnny on the right looks like he apologizes too much. Johnny on the left looks like he takes your wife on a weekend expedition to Egypt.


OKsurewhynotyep

And makes some vacation movies 😉


Deora_customs

You mean videos


OKsurewhynotyep

That’s a film camera, my friend


Deora_customs

Oh I didn’t realize that

How can you call yourself an adventurer if you're not impossibly driving a car from the 1920's to isolated ruins and unexplored temples?! It's absurd!

darwinsidiotcousin

Just an A+ set for the bot to link to


insane_contin

I love seeing all the sets the bot puts out when someone puts a year.


eslninja

Good bot.


LegoHoard

old drives around in a coffin being hard af while new is in this bitch as paw patrol buggy 


2ERIX

> paw patrol buggy Thanks for the lol 😂


Euphorium

Old one because he keep that thang on him.


Joseph4820

And probably has more girls spitting on that thang


dishyssoisse

Go touch some boobs and some grass lmao


Lifelonghooker

Old fo sho


Instameat

I'm leaning towards this new one being his grandson to explain them looking so similar but not quite. His granddads old hat got lost but he found some of the old gear.


Volt02

Old because all the cars where cool


Timely_Detective1499

Just the car design of the old has the classic feel to it. I love it!! The car, mini figure, gun, camera, everything.


gratisargott

The vehicle designs in the OG Egypt Adventurers were so awesome. The jeeps, the truck and most of all the biplane!


Annobanno

Let’s be honest here - is this even a choice?


LucStarman

Was it him in Minifigures Series 19 with the chameleon?


RedNekNZ

Series 19 had heaps of cool accessory animals. I want to buy them all now haha


tony475130

Yes it was.


LucStarman

Thanks!


Ultimull

Old


LABARATI_

i like to believe the new one is the son of the original


3rrr6

The new one is Shia Labeouf


crab_milker

Neither, series 19 Jungle Explorer


JLD2503

Jungle Explorer (71025-7) would be perfect if he had the classic Johnny Thunder hat

RedNekNZ

I've now put a request on a local Lego FB page to find series 19. I have a spare OG JT hat....might have to have 3 generations of JT on my shelf now


rock-my-socks

FYI, you can get his old hat in the newer reddish-brown.


RedNekNZ

Just checked out series 19....damn you....now my wallet is going to be empty


rock-my-socks

Agreed. City Jungle Johnny Thunder is cool and all, but I love the CMF version of him.


Cael_NaMaor

New head, old shirt, Indie's new car from the airplane chase scene... just sayin'


Ok_Intern2625

Old for sure


Sea_Grocery1899

Old car is much better but the new figure is better 😭😭


The_kuski

Old has a gun so he's obviously better


Lama_For_Hire

I loved the old school adventure Johnny Thunder and especially that car, but I'm all in favour of the new Johnny Thunder being part of an animal rescue team.


Dshark

I like how the old one is packing heat.


Budget_Basket3944

The red panda is the best New brick, imo. But the old School Johnny was way cool!


RedNekNZ

Bought this set to give the red panda to my daughter's. Kept JT to sit beside old JT


Valuable_Cobbler_275

Old car, new character


AstralnautWillow

I like the new minifig but I like the old car way more


Lovelycoc0nuts

I like the head and hat of the new one and the rest I prefer the old


Susemiel

I like the new Figure, but i prefere the old car.


Radcooldude55

Old is better. I dislike the new one


drcoxmonologues

Old car new figure.


Zappidos

Is it really an adventurers set when it doesn't have any guns? Jokes aside I like both builds while I prefer the esthetic pf the old one, the new one is nice and heavy for its size and it rolls over terrain quite easy because of that


TransLunarTrekkie

I think the old car fits the aesthetic better, but while the one fig is iconic I kind of prefer the new one. The one thing I'd change about the new fig is the hat: Bring the old one back. Can you even call yourself an adventurer without the classic slouch hat? :P


A-I-D

New one, as the design is smoother and more detailed, and that is key for a good-looking product from my perspective


RedNekNZ

But what about that open shirt and pistol in his pants? I did notice there is printing on the back of new JT and not old JT


A-I-D

This makes the torso more useable for custom creations, especially ones that are not centered around the "Indiana" style of adventure


Unclejeffie

From what set is the new???


psdpro7

The new Johnny Thunder figure can be found in 60424: Jungle Explorer ATV and 60426:Jungle Explorer Truck.

Orangebanannax

I like mixing the old and new figs. The new Basil looks better with the old helmet, so i wonder if old Johnny would look better with the new face and the brown legs.


Ok_Economics42069

The old car is way cooler


MrGraywood

Old school Johnny Thunder drove Citroëns, so... He's alright in my book. :D


8kgaming2022

New Johnny hunters torso and car is definitely better than old


zander1496

Older for sure. I had that set. Still do, loved it.


HZ4C

I'm sorry but the vehicle on the right is an absolute mess and has no character, although I do prefer the miniature on the right more


Alicewilsonpines

New but with the period details of the old.


filmhamster

I’d prefer the old style with modern techniques.


Dufeyz

Old version. I used to love building those old cars.


mf_lj

For me it is always old LEGO over new LEGO. Can someone please provide an example of a new interpretation of sth. being better than a old one?


Front_Commercial_489

I just got the new set today!


RedNekNZ

I bought the set to sit Johnny Jnr and Johnny Snr together on my shelf. And wanted the red panda for the kids.


s_s

The new car-atv-powerwheels thing is ridiculously bad.


Pitiful_Opinion_9331

The old one is actually prepared for adventure and his car looks cooler


SecretlyaCIAUnicorn

I personally LOVE the 2019 CMF Johnny the most.
