Well, guess what's the first thing you see in the latest "exhibit", titled History of the Dark Island, in the museum section of the Ninjago minisite? Have a look... https://ninjagodarkisland.lego.com/en-us Quote

Look I love the Overlord as much as the next guy, but I really hope that (for ONCE) he stays dead. Like many long lasting stories, we need to move on from older enemies who have spent their time. This way new and/or over-arching villains who are ominous (thank goodness for Pythor who has, mind you, only spent one season as a primary villain, as opposed to the Overlord's two) and refreshing to the eyes and ears. We also need to stray away from anything to do with Snakes. It's getting old. Dragon warriors or Shogun please! Quote

I'm not sure where all this Overlord returning talk is coming from, but it sure wasn't from Tommy Andreasen, who stated that you can't rule out the possibility of the Overlord returning, as well as any other dead dead dead dead character like Garmadon or Julien. None of them will be in Hands of Time, and I doubt they'll show up for a while. Tommy's also said many times that the Overlord is wary, given he was beaten badly during his two takeover events, and Ninjago needs something fresh and new. As far as dragon warriors, yes, bring them on! Quote
Exetrius Posted November 8, 2016 Posted November 8, 2016 (edited) Where the Overlord talk comes from? Well: Like Penkid and I pointed out already, those clocks on their bellies look curious. They immediately reminded me, and gamejutzu as well, of the style of the clockface of the Celestial Clock: https://goo.gl/images/5AbCMP [/img] However, it was just a joke, guys!

Also, the source of that rumor has some... bad records, so I honestly doubt that he'll return next season. Edited November 8, 2016 by NinjaJayNuva Quote
HoganPrime Posted November 11, 2016 Posted November 11, 2016 Ooh well I've been away for a while, and took ages catching up with all the pages in the thread. Just saw the nexo box arts and eagerly awaiting the upcoming ninjago ones. Quote

Yeah, we were just joking, I don't even like the Overlord as much as most people here do. Overlord isn't gonna come back in a very long time. He's alive, but he won't return. However, Tommy did state one or two times we can expect him to return in Ninjago's potential future. And I really don't wanna dig through tweets to show you all it, so please believe me on this. But maybe the Vermillion have something to do with the Clock, or the Dark Island? Maybe dark matter? I don't know, but the Dark Island in general really hasn't done much. And it was stated this next wave will really dig into the lore, so we should be more open to more possibilities. On 11/6/2016 at 3:12 AM, Exetrius said: Wait a minute. Is the reason one of the helmets has a trans red snake mold, because those are actual snakes protruding from the helmet? That's so weird. Edited November 11, 2016 by gamejutzu Quote
Bricknblue Posted November 11, 2016 Posted November 11, 2016 The reason why snakes are always around is because the snake theme was HUGE, I wanted a snake mech and never saw any of the sets in stores. It was insanity. So LEGO will keep snakes around in one way or another to keep the cow milking. Quote
LegoRomania Posted November 12, 2016 Posted November 12, 2016 The Snake wave was the best.(just my opinion). Also,Pythor in day of departed said that he will come back with an army of his own? Just asking. Quote
HoganPrime Posted November 12, 2016 Posted November 12, 2016 I really loved the variety of enemies in the snake wave. They all looked great, same reason I think Clancy is the best pirate minifig in skybound Quote
Ashnflash Posted November 12, 2016 Posted November 12, 2016 (edited) New set pictures out. http://www.hothbricks.com/2016/11/nouveautes-lego-ninjago-2017-visuels-officiels/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter They look pretty cool! I especially love the last one. The doorways look really cool! Also Cole and Zane having gray suits looks kinda neat! Also if you look at the Dawn of the Iron Doom set, it comes with two extra hair pieces. One of them is Doctor Who's. Could one of the figures in the mask be the same guy from the DOD special? There's a nice, clear picture of him on LEGO.com Sorry one last thing that I noticed. The logo in the bottom left of all the boxes is a clock. Is this season going to be about time travel? Because that would make sense why the Gold Samurai looks futuristic and why it is also called VXL (35). Just a thought.. Edited November 12, 2016 by Ashnflash Quote
Takanuinuva Posted November 12, 2016 Posted November 12, 2016 Looks like this wave collectible are some kind of colored bug/gauntlet pieces. As a fan of gunmetal. I'm really liking all the pieces of the vermillion vehicles. Quote
Hoth Rebel Posted November 12, 2016 Posted November 12, 2016 Cheapest and the 2 expensive sets look good, the vehicles have the same 'problems' (imo) as the new Nexo Knights as they look the same as before. Quote
Bricknblue Posted November 12, 2016 Posted November 12, 2016 They don't look bad, but nothing really draws me in besides the mindiifures. So happy we get two bad things in the smallest set. Quote
ReZourceman Posted November 12, 2016 Posted November 12, 2016 Love them! Three biggest ones are definitely the coolest. Quote
benderisgreat Posted November 12, 2016 Posted November 12, 2016 Wow I love those sets! And Forge is so big 1100pcs, I didn't expect that! Looks highly detailed and Kai and Nya's parents look great! Smaller sets seems to be remakes of previous sets like Jays bike and Vermilion invader, so I don't really like them, but Vermilion Inavader is must buy set since it has Zane! destinys shadow is solid looking boat, Samurai VXL set looks great and that robot seems to be replacement for Samurai X.Iron Doom looks very intriguing and I can't wait for this set ! Overall im looking most forward to Iron Doom and Dragons Forge set! Quote
LegoShroom Posted November 12, 2016 Posted November 12, 2016 Definately will be saving my ninjago funds for the Ninjago movie. Probably will get the cheapest set just for the armour and helmet. Quote
LegendsOfNinjago Posted November 12, 2016 Posted November 12, 2016 Another full series buy for me. gonna probably start woth the two biggest. i love that the hut is fully closable!! this wave is amazing! Quote
Krulis Posted November 12, 2016 Posted November 12, 2016 (edited) Love those. All minifigs look awesome. The Vermilion Attack is my favourite - Kai with hairpiece, two different Vermilion warriors and the new mcguffin for a cheap price? Sold! Edited November 12, 2016 by Krulis Quote
Boogly22238 Posted November 12, 2016 Posted November 12, 2016 (edited) The minifigures look so nice, we get that helmet with trans-orange snakes too! If I don't get any big sets I'm definitely getting Vermilion Attack. The new snake piece looks pretty cool as well. Edited November 12, 2016 by Boogly22238 Quote
Amazing Bricks Posted November 12, 2016 Posted November 12, 2016 I like them! Love the rogue looking minifigures and the rest of the villains. A solid wave overall. Quote
makoy Posted November 13, 2016 Posted November 13, 2016 I like them. I'm going to stick to buying only playsets though... so I am so glad that the smallest and the biggest set is a playset. On a side note, It's a pattern for TLG to distribute minifigures with and without armour ... and I don't like it. On the surface it can encourage buying every sets to complete the "unique" minifigures with and without armour but I think Ninjago collectors should be smart enough to notice that it is just a gimmick.

Umbra-Manis Posted November 13, 2016 Posted November 13, 2016 Dawn of Iron Doom looks awesome! And those galaxy squad cocoons Quote
zoth33 Posted November 13, 2016 Posted November 13, 2016 The Dawn of Iron Doom does look awesome. I love the minifigs and the sets have excellent parts for mocing. I also love that we get the uruk hai sword in a new color. Quote
