Kranxx, also known as Space Criminal Leader[1] or Plisken,[1] is a minifigure from the Space Police III theme in 2009.

Description[]

Kranxx is an orange alien minifigure. He has a skull belt buckle and a skull on his vest, which is the symbol of the Black Hole Gang.

In LEGO Battles, although he is canonically orange in cutscenes and artwork, his in-game skin color matches whichever team he is on.

Background[]

Kranxx is an alien criminal and is the leader of the criminal biker group, the Black Hole Gang. Kranxx is usually found breaking speed limits or blowing up diners. Rench is apparently Kranxx's third cousin, which explains the physical similarities between them.

Kranxx is a pilot with a will for speed. In the sets in which he appears, he pilots smaller craft with large thrusters.

LEGO.com Description[]

The leader of the Space Bikers gang, Kranxx is scruffy, stinky, and known all across the galaxy for his lousy table manners. He doesn't break the law for space bucks or fame...he just likes to cause trouble and make a mess however, whenever, and wherever he can. Keep your distance when chasing him-his greatest weapon may be his bad breath!

Vehicle of Choice: Hotrod Hover-Cycle

Crimes

  • Grand Theft Spaceship
  • Intergalactic Gambling
  • Illegal Robot Rustling

Notes[]

  • The original name intended for Kranxx was Plisken; however, this name was rejected for legal reasons. This original name is a reference to Snake Plissken, a fictional character from the two films Escape from New York and Escape from L.A. Kranxx is still referred to as Plisken in LEGO Battles.
  • In "May the fourth be with you", he can be seen in the background in the Mos Eisley Cantina beside the Jawa.
  • Although Kranxx is said to be the Black Hole gang leader, Brick Daddy is said to be the leader in all of the 2010 sets.
