Digger of Bricks Posted June 11, 2017 1 hour ago, TheBrickHitHouse said: Minifigs are a bit dull compared with what we saw with the Lego Batman Movie...in fact all these sets seem to lack that 'step up' I would expect for a film... To me, the minifigures aren't that bad, it's the scaling down of some of the builds that bother me. Kai's mech, the hammerhead mech, and Lloyd's dragon all are too large to translate as is into moderate priced sets. Instead, they should have designed the film counterparts as smaller, but heavily grebbled builds that would have transitioned into minimally altered sets, much like many of TLBM's sets. The Scuttler, Batwing, and Batmobile were all great sets. TLM also had this problem with Emmett's mech, a build just to big to translate into a moderately priced set. Now maybe, just maybe, we could see actual scale reproduction remakes of these scaled down examples as D2Cs in the near future on anniversary dates for their films, such as TLM's tenth anniversary in 2024. Having said all that though, the Destiny's Bounty makes me forgive all those issues, since that's one AWESOME ship! Hopefully the rumored D2C blows us away just as much.

But TLG's timing for release of set info is normally a month or so before release in Lego stores and I don't expect them to deviate from that for TLNM sets even with this official catalog out in the wild. Expect "official" info on the sets to go something like this: - Images/set descriptions/piece counts/etc. on Lego severs - 1st week in July-ish - Sets should be on display at SDCC in late July with accompanying press releases, etc. But that's Lego's timeline. Given that the catalog is out there, I don't think Lego can now expect to contain/embargo images being put out by other retailers or sites that TLG has provided set images to. I wouldn't be surprised at all to see other retailers put up set images for pre-order of the sets. Hell, it looks like departments within TLG may not even be communicating with each other and given the catalog "leak" Lego may just release all of the set images/info themselves at this point. So, given all of this, I think we can expect to see set images/details pop up earlier than July 1st. 35 minutes ago, Digger of Bricks said: To me, the minifigures aren't that bad, it's the scaling down of some of the builds that bother me.

I hear what you are saying, but: - Kai's mech might be "scaled down" from the movie, sure. But, the set itself is one of the larger one's in the wave and looks to be pretty generous in size and is true to it's appearance in the movie. - Lloyd's dragon mech was scaled down, for sure. But under the circumstances, I think they did a pretty good job with it (non-brick built head aside) - The hammerhead mech is still pretty large (especially if you measure it bottom to top of the fin!) For me, I think that the overall pricing of the ninja vehicle sets is on the high side (cheapest set is Nya's walker at $40USD with Jay, Kai and Zane's vehicles all clocking in at $70USD and up!) and they should have designed at least one vehicle in the $30USD or under price point. I would really like to see, assuming there is at least a second wave of sets, if the Ninja's all have smaller secondary vehicles (like Batman has multiple vehicles in multiple sizes for different missions) that could lead to some lower priced Ninja vehicle sets and some higher priced villain sets. Destiny's Bounty is awesome. The definitive model of that particular vehicle. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Of course the Ninjago Movie version of Misako/KoKo will look completely different from the one we know, just as every other character has. As for him thinking the trailer is going to be enjoyed, that again tells us practically nothing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We'll see, I do like seeing new colors introduced, just as long as they are not too similar and unnecessarily bloat the color palette. But like I said, I'm honestly not really expecting a new color to come from this theme, but the tank in the trailer was curious in that regard, so I just had to ask.
