Revision as of 20:17, 3 December 2019

Jungle (also known as Amazon) was an Adventurers subtheme released in 1999. Like the other Adventurers themes it lasted for only a year and showcased a wide variety of new pieces and minifigures.

The Adventurers are also pitted against Señor Palomar and Rudo Villano, who are also attempting to find the disc. Both factions strive to collect the treasures for different reasons. The Adventurers for historical preservation and the other for fame and money.

Señor Palomar – The main antagonist of the Amazon Jungle theme.
Rudo Villano – Señor Palomar's closest criminal partner.
Gabarro – A sailor who works for both the adventurers and a main villain Señor Palomar.

This the only Adventurers theme to not feature Lord Sam Sinister as a villain.
