The Ronin Mech has me stoked, considering that ninjago isnt plagued by licensing cost, a $40 mech should be friggin huge

It won't just be a mech. There'll be some sort of smaller opposing model, like there always is.

Oh my... It's Samurai Mech sized!! :wub: :wub:

Well, assuming that the prices Sci quoted are $USD, then the Ronin Mech set should have around 375-425 pieces. The actual size of the mech will depend on how bulky it will be and what other builds come with it. Assuming that the mech is the main build and there will be some sort of secondary build for the bad guys, we are probably looking at something between 6.5 inches to 7.5 inches tall, not including flags/banners/spikes on the top/back that stick up over the body of the mech.

I also wonder if this will be the "Kendo-Mech" from the Shadow of Ronin game. I think it just might be.

Im most looking forward to the temple grounds set. I hope it is truly a grounds set. I'm envisioning a park or garden like setting (long walkway) lined with statues of past warriors (terra-cotta?) with shrubbery and a water feature. Please be something closely resembling that.

I can imagine that the temple grounds could have one building and maybe alot of trees with some type of bamboo farm! There also could be a statue of the first spinjitzu master!

At $20? Expect a small patch of ground with a teeny tiny useless function built into a rock or shrine. It probably won't be sizable enough to combine with the Temple of Airjitzu proper.

I don't see why such a set would have to be large to combine with Temple of Airjitzu. In fact, I'd almost be prepared to say the smaller, the better — If it's too big then it could be hard to integrate without distracting from the "main attraction". After all, the Temple of Airjitzu already depicts a fairly complete-looking scene.

I'm expecting some nice scenery, a bit of conflict (since it's a regular retail set and not an exclusive like the Temple), and yes, maybe a function or two. It'd be cool if it could integrate an Airjitzu launcher but that might be too much to hope for, especially now that Airjitzu is no longer quite so relevant as a gimmick.

So it's definitely $20?

Seems Amazon.uk finally has normal shipping dates for new Ninjago sets! Not 3-6 weeks but 1-2 depending on shipping! Already ordered my second favorite set of the wave Raid Zeppelin! Gonna receive it pretty soon! I am really happy I won't have to wait till March to buy it.

After seeing the trailer for new season of Ninjago it seems that there is only 1 Djinn blade, not 7 like sets imply! It can trap ninja inside but it's just 1. So another year, another " collectible " weapon.

That's not good. That sounds like it'll lead to a frustrating plot of the ninja repeatedly losing the blade to give Nadakhan the opportunity to use it on all of them...

Here are my GUESSES for the new Summer wave of sets. I have no sources, well except for Lego.com which posted a quiz for the summer wave that gave lots of hints. What I received from it is: Jay and Nya are going to defend a tower, Ronin is going to build something for Jay's parents, one or more dragons, Zane driving something new, Ninja retreading past, Old enemies return. So I added that to the list and...

Titanium Ninja Tumbler: Zane and a vehicle he can DRIVE...

Cole's Earth Roader: Cole...

Airjitzu Temple Grounds: ....

Kryptarium Escape: ....

Ronin Mech: Ronin and Mech and maybe Jay's parent(s)...

Lloyd's Dragon: Lloyd and dragon...

Watchtower Defense: Jay and Nya and a tower and maybe attackers or something else to defend against...

Sonic Radar 2.0: ....

Samurai X Cave: Nya

Again NO SOURCES WHATSOEVER but it would be cool if some of this turns out to be true.

I assume this survey was from the now-removed Ninjago website update? Man, I missed a lot by missing that site update!
