benderisgreat Posted May 15, 2017 (edited) Why are new ninja masks made of 2 parts? Not a fan of this design , the existing ones are great, why make stranger inferior version? Edited May 15, 2017 by benderisgreat Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
makoy Posted May 15, 2017 Your guess is as good as mine. I need to see them use the lower piece with the hair pieces on. It doesn't make enough justification to make 2-piece mask and then use them together all the time. They could have use the same old mould. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BubbaFit45531 Posted May 15, 2017 (edited) View Page Source, then you can see the jpg URL. I suspected the masks would be two-piece since it looked like it wrapped under the chin tightly. I'd like to see what the top part looks like without the bottom portion. The bottom mask alone looks better than the bandana masks, and might not interfere with some armor. I like the ZX masks the best. Edited May 15, 2017 by BubbaFit45531 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Exetrius Posted May 15, 2017 Didn't expect that! I certainly welcome the new designs, even though the lower part looks like a bowl, indeed.

It seems unnecessary and just provides an extra piece to get lost. Plus the additional lower segment makes it slightly more tedious to remove the mask, as now you have to remove the head to remove the mask - rather than simply removing the mask on its own. The 2-piece mask in general as of the moment does not seem justified - unless someone can find something interesting to do with the pieces seperate from the figures.

I kinda like the new mask it's something different but it is kinda awkward the lower part is and here is a picture showing Zane's backprinting and one of his faces Edited May 15, 2017 by Peppermint_M No need to quote images on the same page.

I hope that all of them have dual face prints. Zane clearly has dual face print because comparing the 2 pictures, the position of his eyebrows are different. At least, when I get many grinning Zane face, I can easily switch to the serious non-grinning face when I get tired of the grinning face. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LegoShroom Posted May 15, 2017 I might actually pick up the small set now, in addition to the kai mech and Destiny's bounty just so that I can have multiple Smiley Zanes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gundamz Posted May 15, 2017 I'm interested in the destiny bounty, kai fire mech, and city chase. Coles tank looks very cool too, but there's only a blurry image on just2good YouTube. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Are you talking about an image of Zane's Tank or Cole's Mech? And is it an actual set image or an image from the movie poster (which has been out for a while now). I also checked J2G's YouTube feed but there is no clip of either in his list. If it is a set image, then that would be the first image we've seen. Edit: Found the image. I'm pretty sure that's a fake. It's definitely not a set box artwork image (which is all we have seen for the other sets so far) and it doesn't look like an additional set image that isn't the box art either. If anything, it looks like it MIGHT be a photo from a catalog, but since it's supposed to be a retail exclusive, it wouldn't be in a catalog, right? Also, there is a lack of any villain minifigs/vehicles in the image (the image shows all of the Ninja, so again, doubtful this is real). Edited May 15, 2017 by TPLSTER21 See above. Found Image. Looks fake to me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The dual molded masks that were used since Possession are technically 3 piece. The black hood serves as the base, then the colored part wrapped around the chin (like we see here), and lastly the colored headband serving as the "belt". There's a picture of Skybound Lloyd below to use as an example Does Wu canonically have a ponytail braid? Or is that person above Lloyd the First Spinjitzu Master?

Boogly22238 Posted May 15, 2017 (edited) I can't say I like the fact that the hood is made from 2 pieces. It just seems rather unnecessary. On top of this, only the bottom piece looks useful. It's an interesting concept, to say the least. Edited May 15, 2017 by Boogly22238 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rolyat24 Posted May 15, 2017 I'll wait and see what the hoods look like with the lower half + hairpiece combo, but as of now I'm not really feeling it. They look good when combined, but pretty odd when only one is attached. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
