Whiteagle Posted April 27, 2017 Well after having binged watched the last of Nexo Knights' third season, I have to say the third wave has grown even more on me. The Three Brothers actually DO have some personality, though they rarely get to show it... Even what little we actually SEE of General Garg makes him the smartest and most eloquent of the gargoyles, though it was only used for a single episode's bit... Ruina Stoneheart has clearly been telegraphed as a former member of the Wizards Council; In the Episode "Mount Thunderstrox" we see a picture of the council with a sole female member to the right of Monstrox, who staff we latter see in Runia's hands in "Rock Bottom." Not only does Monstrox himself say their were "a few witches" on the Wizards Council in "Mount Thunderstrox," he also refers to Runia as one while flirtatiously introducing her Jestro in "Rock Bottom," the episode which also shows a flash back to Merlok's confrontation with Monstrox in what would become Rock Wood forest where Monstrox scoffs at the idea the entire Council is behind Merlok. This flashback also shows a mysterious SOMEONE handing Merlok Monstrox's bracelet of Forbidden Power charms after he is blasted away, but glitches out before we actually see who. Further more, the "Drop Bot Dragon" is actually named "Hotspur" in the series, and he is BEST VEHICLE! Not only does he apparently have an advanced interface that will bond with Macy as a Rider, he is THE MOST USEFUL SECOND YEAR VEHICLE since he is able to airlift Battle Suits AND IS THE FIRST ONE SHOWN TO ACTUALLY COMBINE WITH ONE! Clay's Falcon Fighter Blaster only shows up for the first three episodes before the plot forces him to use the first Battle Suit, and while Lance's Twin Jouster is his ride for the whole season AND it's separation function is shown off in its first episode... that's the ONLY function it ever uses AND is first used as a GAG. Also, I think Hotspur's toy form is actually MORE articulated than his in-show model, despite the latter having a far longer tail. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Still though, the series has made me warm up to some sets like the Three Brothers due to the character they're allowed to display there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
samurai-turtle Posted April 28, 2017 Take this with a "grain of salt" but I found the Battle Suits at a Walmart on a roll back. They now have them for $8. (Plus, their is other stuff on roll back to boot. So it could be just clearing out stuff for new stuff. Or they are just getting rid of things.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, same here, I was assuming it was in preparation for the summer waves. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ad79 Posted May 9, 2017 BR Leker, a toychain here in Norway, has images of the back of the boxes for the summer sets. https://www.br.no/merker/lego/lego-nexo-knights Click on the "Vis flere" and scroll down to see the new sets. Also has back of the box images of lots of other themes too. (Click "varemerker" tab in top line to see LEGO as a brand.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PenPlays Posted May 9, 2017 The Castle is now so much cooler. Seeing it folded up, but also the rocket function with the central tower is awesome. A little underwhelmed with the Battle Suit Combinations this round. Hoped for something that could latch onto the back of Axl's as he's the only one that doesn't have a color-specific "battle suit backpack" if you would.

Digger of Bricks Posted May 9, 2017 Wow! I just presumed the use of the canopies at the pinnacle was cosmetic. The construction of the rocket is quite unique and the fact that three of these canopies come with the set is great too! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

benderisgreat Posted May 11, 2017 (edited) Any news on summer exclusive set? Seems like this time last year we already knew about Black Knight Mech. Is this a sign that there's no summer exclusive set? Edited May 11, 2017 by benderisgreat Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheBrickHitHouse Posted May 11, 2017 As I've just ordered the sets for immediate collection I'm guessing the rumours of cancellation weren't well sourced! Love nexo knights and this wave is glorious! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nah, it was shown at Toy Fair back in February and exclusive sets are never shown at Toy Fairs. So new exclusive is ether a well kept secret or ther isn't one this year.

No, the sculptor who teamed up with Jestro and Monstrux got exiled for making a statue of the Queen kicking butt, so more likely it's that statue brought to life.
