I assume it's a Poseidon statue.

[vynsane]

A statute, or the god himself?

To me he definitely looks like the golden statue from the Temple set. If he isn't, then maybe he is from a set that has yet to be released?

Well, he wasn't gold, but who knows.

The gold guy appears to be the one from the Temple...it's pictured in the back of my Angler instructions. The helmet comes with the Angler as a treasure.

Yep. He's a mining expert, so he pilots their drilling sub.

anyone in the UK get atlantis yet?

With a limited budget I'm debating investing in this line over Ninjago. They both look really good but darn it I want a lot of ninjas.

If the Atlantis theme wasn't designed underwater, I'd probably be more impressed with this theme. Though one set does interest me....just for the Greek style architecture alone --the Temple of Atlantis.

With the hopes that Lego will one day come out with a Hoplite Greek minifigure (the bare chested spartan is too cartoonish looking in my opinion) I'll most likely buy a couple of the 7985 Temple of Atlantis to create a fountain for an Ancient Greek Civilization.

It actually is not bare chested.

Oops, you're right!

I'm not sure if the Atlantis theme will continue. If it does, maybe we'll see Atlas, the king, sitting on his throne in an ancient inspired palace. :)

Atlas was the king of Atlantis, son of Poseidon, Greek god of the sea.

No. Atlas is a titan. Poseidon is a son of Cronos. Atlas is something closer to an uncle.

While arguing on the internet about things that aren't real is something I greatly enjoy, why don't you click that link I posted and read it for yourself. Either that or re-read what I wrote the first time.
