Description

Johnny Thunder's Biography:

Johnny is a full time adventurer and explorer from the Land Down Under (Australia!). He is brave, instinctive, determined and very creative. He always finds a way to solve problems and help people in need.

Background

He traveled with a scientist named Dr. Kilroy and a photographer for the world magazine named Pippin Reed. Together they discovered many treasures and outwitted various villains. His arch enemy was Lord Sinister. He is a treasure hunter, and donates what he finds to a museum instead of keeping it for himself like Sam Sinister.

In the Video Games

Johnny Thunder is the boss of the 4th circuit in LEGO Racers. He also appears in LEGOLAND, LEGO Racers 2, Lego Universe and Lego Island 2.

In LEGO Racers, Johnny Thunder is the boss of the 4th circuit. If you get first place, you win his car set.

In LEGO Racers 2, he and Pippin send the player out on the Dino Island mini-games.

In LEGO Island 2, Johnny Thunder is one of the characters on the Adventurers island. You must bring him and his group to a pyramid in the desert, then fly their plane through the Amazon jungle, and finally rescue dinosaurs from Sam Sinister's cages.

In LEGO Stunt Rally, Johnny (Probably him, because although he has the right face, he has the hat wrong side and has the torso of Baron von Barron.) and other Adventurers characters appear in the opening video.

In Soccer Mania, Johnny may be unlocked after his team is beaten on Dino Island.

In LEGOLAND, Johnny Thunder appears in one of the cut-scenes and in the opening video. At certain points in time, the professor goes back in time with his time machine. The final time that he does this, he appears in Egypt, and gets a copy of the pyramids and other Adventurers places as attractions for the park. In the opening video, a portrait of Johnny may be seen in the background as Professor Voltage unveils his time-machine

In LEGO Universe, Johnny Thunder appears as a NPC character. His appearance is similar to the original one, but he wears a Venture League armband, re-designed black pants with pockets, a grey hat, and a brown shoulder bag. He appears in the main hub of Nimbus Station.
