MasterofElements Posted January 7, 2017 Did a quick google search on the "new" set names (the 'HoT' one specifically as it was recently discussed above) and found this: https://www.flickr.com/photos/138287535@N03/32004837912/in/dateposted-public/ Not sure if it's real, but found it interesting.

Sci is right, and if you look at it closely the name has clearly been smudged out. I'm calling fake on this. Edited January 7, 2017 by BrickJagger Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DuckBricks Posted January 7, 2017 (edited) Don't know if this means anything, but the Hageman Brothers retweeted a news article with the rumored Ninjago Movie set list... Don't know if this confirms their legitimacy, but it's extremely strange for any official Lego employee to retweet a leaked list, which makes me think there may be some truth to it...

According to what they said in Brent's interview, they sometimes may came out some idea for the story and they might eventually become the sets. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Klaus-Dieter Posted January 8, 2017 Thank you all very much for the information! 70617 Backstreet Break-in and 70620 Ninjago City Invasion sound like if they included some houses which could go well with the Temple of Airjitzu (for a eastern medieval layout). I'm curious about seeing pics. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Even before all the upgrades in Season 3 ("Rebooted"), Ninjago City felt more like NYC or modern Tokyo than classic Edo. That said, the "Battle for Ninjago City" set from the Rebooted wave was surprisingly traditional in its style compared to what we'd seen of Ninjago City in the show. So another surprise like that is certainly possible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe it's just me, but when I saw it, I assumed it was the early construction of the clock on Iron Doom (since things are much larger in the show than sets). At least that was the impression I got with it being an episode cliffhanger "grand reveal" of sorts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

True, but we had no way of knowing the set would be a historic site/monument from the set name alone. The set name "Ninjago City Invasion" is just as vague, so there's no way to know that the same thing won't happen with that one.

Yeah, judging from the name "Battle for Ninjago City" you wouldn't expect to get a temple. Maybe this one will follow a similar theme and have characters in one large building fighting off enemies.

I can't see them releasing any non-Oriental themed building for a Ninjago set - even though the setting is a city, all the buildings for Ninjago we've gotten before have been pretty much temples - with the previously mentioned BFNC, they even had to write in a reason as to why it's a temple in the middle of the city in the TV show - so I can see them doing the same type of thing here.

Peppermint_M Posted January 9, 2017 Got to say, that forge is certainly on my purchase list I like dragons and buildings and it has both! I'm not rating the other sets much though. I don't know, it just seems to be more of the same. Maybe the movie will provide some more Ninja sets, but I have to say that this wave has less sets that atract me than the Nindroid one. (IMO, not the best wave really) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PenPlays Posted January 10, 2017 I'm surprised there hasn't been much discussion on the Samurai VXL. The set is so much smaller on the box than when it's build. The steering mechanism in the vehicle is just genius. I will say though that while building it, the vehicle is quite simple to build, which is a bit unfortunate. The price doesn't help much either.

It is on my wish list and I've been impressed with the reviews I've seen, but my anticipation for it is sort of overshadowed by my anticipation for the larger Dragon's Forge and Dawn of Iron Doom sets. Its function is very similar to that of the classic Space Police set [url=http://brickset.com/sets/6895-1/Spy-Trak-1]Spy Trak 1[/url], but with the entire cockpit integrated with the tilt steering mechanism.

Most complaints for this set are about it's main feature not working that well, the vehicle seems to make wide and broad turns. I guess people would rather see it in action than just appreciate the build. And the Machia build apparently wasn't as good as Buffmillion .
