Some pics I took recently:

Nice shots, Rayskull. I particularly like the stand you made for the hover horse... I wish the sets really came with that! It makes the horse look really nice.

There is quite a difference between the French and Dutch prices on S@H apparently: all Ultimates are €9.99, Jestro's Evil Mobile is €59.99 and Fortrex is €109.99 on the Dutch site, so I guess that makes the Brickshop deal a lot sweeter for me!

yes indeed. Lego pricing are very strange. Italian prices are the same as Dutch prices (and Belgium), but France is cheaper, even if we are in between in term of GDP per capita.

Germany is the cheapest. Compare to France, Ultimate cost 1 euro more, but King Mech, Chariot, Infernox and Library 2 euro less, Jestro 5 euros less.

Spain and Portugal are average, except ultimate are 11 euros...

Ireland is cheap (like France), except the Fortrex is super cheap (90 euros) and Clay blade is expensive (45 euros)...

And I am too lazy/scared to look into country not using euros...

From February 1-14, you can get a FREE LEGO Nexo Knights Robin’s Mini Fortrex (30372) with purchases of $50

Thank you, I prefer that rather than the January offer.

No problem, this is definitely better than January's. I'm glad I waited to buy robin, I was about to get ultimate robin but I'm not now.

I'm not going to rule out Ultimate Robin until we know for sure that that solid silver armor won't be appearing in any other sets. I'm definitely going to try to keep myself from buying too many of the sets in general until I have a better idea what Summer has in store...

At first I didnt really like the theme. But after watching videos, reading reviews and looking at the pictures etc I kind of changed my mind. Really great sets (most of them) and nice pieces! I just ordered Jestro's evil mobile and the Infernox beast set, the beasts/mechs look awesome and all minifigs in general in this new theme do. Hope they arrive soon so I can build them :-)

Jestro lava castle will be huge and a must buy. It will have volcano elements in it, but not a full on volcano. Jestro will be new in this set, that's about all I know and the price.

The more details we get on the volcano castle for Jestro the more I'm loving the idea of it. It sounds neat.

Definitely planning to pick up an Ultimate Lavaria - She's by far the best one out of all the Ultimates IMO and the only Ultimate where I like all the Nexo Powers. I quite like all of them, though, namely Clay for those trans-blue blades, Macy for the six-stud shooter and 1x1 pyramid pieces on her mace, and Robin with silver wariant of that armor. Beast Master interests me the least, but I may still pick him up to get a second evil version of the shield along with Lavaria's.

-Ultimate Robin is actually pretty cool. The silver armor and helm look really nice and the backpack as a jetpack or legs is actually pretty neat.

After seeing how detailed the bad dudes are I decided to collect all the ultimates.

- Clay's twirling robot arms are kinda fun. His flaming sword and shield are great options.

- Beast Master's twirling goblins are interesting...but maybe more interesting with the chains attached to one hand and the drill in the other. I don't really see this guy with a shield, unless it's that warp shield. Great silver print on the legs BTW.

-Lavaria, spider legs, shield and staff are a tad unweildly together. Spider legs are cool though nice body printing. I like the wings and cowl. Oh she comes with a different stud Shooter that looks like the one that comes with the ballista but shoots studs instead of round tiles.

- Macy, great expression on her face, the flaming axe is the real draw here. The giant gattling cannon is too big and offset to even imagine her walking around with it. I like the red and trans red armor...but personally not a fan of this helmet design in transparent red. As for the stud shooter, maybe on a Fortrex it would be appropriate.

I don't have Arron I asked my GF to grab it for me for Christmas, she's been a tad busy so I'm still waiting. (Arron is my favorite design)

Side note: the Choas Catapult driver looks fantastic, so far my favorite grunt. Also the Catapult looks great with a couple of dudes on it.

Crust Smasher is great, the furry loincloth and claws on the feet look awesome. I like all of the bad guy grunts, and its nice that they have names for discussion purposes but are still generic enough to army build. Actually here is a summary of all the baddy minifigs (sorry no scurriers).

Sorry Hinck, I was responding to LOTR34's comment saying that he was a "Charming fellow".

My original comment "Look's like he's one of our own" referred to him being an American.

Just to clear that up.

Thank you for clarifying. No worries at all. :thumbup:

We already know it will appear in 1st issue of NEXO KNIGHTS magazine:

How different is Jestro going to be in his castle:

#1.will he just be wearing some kind of armor.

#2.will he be a big fig

#3.will his appearance change completely

Also there are a few options on what to do with Jestro next:

#1.He gets free of the BoM influence and becomes a good guy.

#2.The BoM changes Jestro so much that he can't be saved.

#3.Jestro gets sucked into the BoM.

One of these two.

Can't wait to see what the second batch of Lava Monsters look like. I know that we've already seen Flama and Whiparella, but I'm curious to see what Magmar looks like. I wonder if there will be six in the second wave....hopefully there are more than that.

The people asked... I listened! :grin:

Can we get the mods to make this a tag? :laugh:

Only for those who support the theme, of course!

Or better yet, only for those who have expressed a dislike for the theme, just for kicks.

Definitely limited appeal in Nexo Knights tags, but nice work.

This guy needs one. Badly.

For sure, he LOVES Nexo Knights! At least every page there's a post about why he loves it so much! ;P

For Christmas, I got 'x105Black' (the member above and friend of mine) the Back to the Future Dimesions Level Pack. For the New Year, I got him a surprise new bumper sticker. Happy New Year, J! Did you notice it yet?? :laugh: Loooooove yooouuuuuu!

The trans-blue swords make nice crystals or ice shards. The 6 1x1 pyramids are really nice to have. The silver variant armor is much better than the one with trans-orange shoulders.

Moltor and Ash Attacker are my favorites here. I also like that Flamethrower comes with the same legs as Ash Attacker, those are nice legs.

You know, I really hate you sometimes.
