Rayskull Posted April 16, 2016 What do you guys see for 2017? I bet they'll use their animal motifs for sets. Fox Falcon/Eagle/Hawk Bull/Taurus Dragon Chicken Horse Hope we get a windmill Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dannallcorn Posted April 16, 2016 I would love to see some sort of massive dropship (i have a thing for carrier aircraft) or knighton castle (that looks like a spacecraft). I like the animal motif idea though Rayskull Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PenPlays Posted April 16, 2016 I bet they'll use their animal motifs for sets. Fox Falcon/Eagle/Hawk Bull/Taurus Dragon Chicken Horse I think Lego will be taking a very cautious approach to the animal-motif direction in the foreseeable future... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DraikNova Posted April 16, 2016 I'm guessing maybe a few vehicles based on traditional siege engines, a few more original vehicles, and probably variations on the knights' weaponry, like a whip sword instead of a claymore or something like that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Exetrius Posted April 16, 2016 What do you guys see for 2017? I bet they'll use their animal motifs for sets. Fox Falcon/Eagle/Hawk Bull/Taurus Dragon Chicken Horse Hope we get a windmill I think that they will keep the beast motifs for the villain faction for the upcoming waves. The monster in the queen rescue set kinda resembles a Taurus, btw. They will probably stick with the heraldry as symbols only, like with the Mars Mission vehicles, but a dragon at some point is to be expected. I would love to see some sort of massive dropship (i have a thing for carrier aircraft) or knighton castle (that looks like a spacecraft). spaceship, Spaceship, SPACESHIP!!! The tower carrier is pretty cool, but a 100€ space dropship... remember this? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TeriXeri Posted April 16, 2016 (edited) I just came out of my Dark ages since 2000 with Nexo Knights. After owning all the winter 2016 sets, I hope for more structures in 2017. I love the Fortrex doubling up as mobile base , or good guy castle , especially connected to Library it's a nice start of the theme. Jestro's lair this summer looks fantastic too so I hope they continue the trend in that design direction. In 2016 there are just a lot of vehicles, especially for the good guys if you count the whole year. Knight vehicles: - 5 hover horses - 5 big vehicle sets (1 for each knight) , some are modular to split in 2 or 4 . - 1 small clay bike on fortrex - 1 aero striker small flyer on fortrex - 1 macy's flyer with jestro's lair - 1 king mech + 1 small shield flyer - 1 soldier knighton battle blaster Lava Monster: - 1 jestro mobile - 2 small flyers - 1 small crossbow emplacement - 1 moltor lava smasher - 1 beast master chariot - 1 magmar siege machine - 1 chaos catapult Not counting polybags or magazine sets here. Still unreleased Black Knight set to come. I would love to see some sets like "Robin's Workshop" , or more civilian areas of villages or knighton city or the gold factory, just something with different minifigs or bot-figures from the show. Previous castle themes always had some neutral or smaller structures / towers/ prisons etc. and part of the show is about finding the books in remote places. I understand year 1 is all about the characters and starting them up, including ultimates , we got a ton of sets in 1 year to get going. And if you consider the world map's landscapes and the book of monster the theme can go many many directions beyond this.

Rayskull Posted April 16, 2016 Hoping for new helmets or new colorations. Like solid color visors and silver helmets. The top half of magmars helmet. Perhaps those two pieces in different colors (blue and silver), so we can mix and match. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BrickFit26 Posted April 17, 2016 A village set for townspeople would be a nice addition. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DraikNova Posted April 17, 2016 Hoping for new helmets or new colorations. Like solid color visors and silver helmets. The top half of magmars helmet. Perhaps those two pieces in different colors (blue and silver), so we can mix and match. What top half? Magmar's helmet seems to just be a visor-like piece that attaches to the neck.

LegendsOfNinjago Posted April 17, 2016 Im thikn what he's trying to say is that he wants a helmet piece to go along with it. Kinda like the neck/helmet combo Ultron used. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Exetrius Posted April 17, 2016 I'd like to see that too. Btw, Rayskull might be talking about the helmet seen on one of the first sea monster guys that leaked, the one with the fish bowl under his arm. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Boogly22238 Posted April 17, 2016 I also want a village set. It could have some people from all those towns in the series, maybe even a farmer bot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rayskull Posted April 17, 2016 Im thikn what he's trying to say is that he wants a helmet piece to go along with it. Kinda like the neck/helmet combo Ultron used. Exactly, it would add a whole new helmet customization dynamic, you could easily do half helms and stuff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TPLSTER21 Posted April 17, 2016 What do you guys see for 2017? I bet they'll use their animal motifs for sets. Fox Falcon/Eagle/Hawk Bull/Taurus Dragon Chicken Horse Hope we get a windmill Hmm...not sure about an all out "Animal Motif" theme given that Chima just ended and was perhaps not as successful as Lego had hoped it would be (i.e. it didn't earn a stay of execution beyond it's planned run). But since we are guessing/speculating, In 2017, I could see: - Some kind of small mechs for all of the knights at the Ultimate price point or slightly higher. Basically a small exo-skeleton (I once referred to this idea as a Nexo Skeleton) similar to the small polybag mech that Jay got in the last wave of Ninjago, but with more pieces and better weaponry - More mechs in general, since this is a Lego in-house action/adventure theme and Lego seems to have a love affair with mechs (not that I'm complaining) - a new enemy faction is that neither the mushroom people or the sea/swamp people revealed in the books - A large castle for the Knights - "Castle Knighton" or some such thing - Dragons or other mythical medieval beasts like chimeras, Pegasus, griffon - perhaps in Robotic form - New versions of the knights weapons We will know exactly what to expect in 3 months or so!
