  1. Given this new torso which seems to be a redesigned version of the classic ice planet torso and not like, a hoodie or something referencing it for city use, the prior rumors of a “classic theme returning later this year, lego seemingly being interested in expanding their library of original themes running at one time, and the consistent popularity of space stuff through nasa sets in ideas, creator sets, and how well the space themed movie sets sold, I’d definitely speculate that an ice planet revival of some kind could be coming, even if it would likely be “actionized” a bit compared to the old one.
  2. I feel like if they did that the sky train would have to be a separate train set style kit that just includes a suggested way to wrap it around the city. id love a beachfront set, a warehouse set, a borg tower set (the only real “major” location from the shows city that would make sense for a set) or an area inspired by styxx with more water and docks surrounding the lower levels.
  3. Maybe printing the white part and then doing a resin pour to fill in the gaps in the pattern with tr blue, get it fully flush and embedded without loosing the transparency.

    LEGO Monkie Kid 2020

    Outside lego stores. specifically at least target. It’s big news for the line since a major reason it hasn’t taken off is because with the show not airing here and the sets being lego store only, general people just don’t know it exists. This will likely come with a wider release of the show as well, which will further boost the lines presence. Oh, maybe it’ll be the special apoc outfits from the season one finale, or maybe on of the variant mk clones, like the manic one with paint splatters or dj mk. I’d also love a print for mei’s helmet with an expression on it like it does in the show, or any kind of variant on pigsy’s face. I think for me ideally it’d be party mk with his dj booth, a version of mei, and either tang or wukong, and maybe delivery outfit mk, to represent the clone power training. With mk making the clone then having to save mei when it goes party crazy.

    A friend of mine says she saw spaces for them on a shelf in a Cincinnati target here in the US as well. Can’t verify that but combined with the above info it Looks like they’ll be launching at major retail very soon!

    Hey since people are starting to find them, does anyone have the dpci codes for the new sets? Thanks in advance!

    LEGO Ninjago 2021

    Really hope they wouldn’t put 3 out of 7 figures in one set that won’t even be in normal stores, and waste 3 of the 19 slots in a city set on figs that dont mesh with the setting.

    LEGO Ninjago 2021

    So if golden wu comes with the gardens and the overlord dragon doesn’t have an anniversary ninja, then we have atleast 1 if not 2 more sets coming, since the box graphic for the golden figs shows all 6 ninja with a “collect them all” graphic. It’s possible but unlikely one will come with the 4+ mech set, but that still leaves one, and I don’t think they’ve ever directly promoted stuff on the box of a set that isn’t released at the same time, so it’s not likely that zane and nya are just in the next wave.

    Given spider queen has new tech in this set (VR headset on one of her minions, whatever that gun in the container does, and those little spiders look more mechanical than organic) I’d assume son is working with her.

    LEGO Ninjago 2020

    Chima flopped hard in legos eyes, the references to it have just been jokes. They aren’t going to celebrate the 10th anniversary of ninjago by making it about chima. The molds for the animal head parts aren’t even around anymore, so they aren’t going to have them in any major role, just an Easter egg for anyone watching who remembers chima
  12. I’m not sure the rules about linking worldbuilder projects here but I’ll just say this is connected to mine, under the name “lego clash!” On there, and if you check that out there will be a lot more context to what this is. the blast cab, main vehicle of the villain “wrecker”, is a classic tow truck converted into a mobile weapons platform. With an armored front to ram opponents, rebar blasters on the sides of the cabin, and a dock at the back to equip wreckers newest giant weaponry packs, the blast cab is a powerful weapon in the hands of its creator. to combat him, the hero “lightfoot” creates a motorcycle that can interface with his power, turning into a bolt of energy to avoid attacks and using its own weapon to plant trackers and mini-bombs on the larger truck. so far I’ve only got a prototype done for the blast cab itself, but that should be refined within a few days and the ultracycle should be done shortly after as that one isn’t going to be a large build. Posting the wip here to give myself a bit of pressure to actually finish it. Some sketching while I designed this version of the truck. A sketch of a previous design can be seen on the worldbuilder page but isn’t included here since it has little resemblance to the model now.
  13. Thanks! And idk, there are rules against promoting ideas projects last I checked so was worried a similar thing would be implemented for worldbuilder

    Chinese New Year Sets - Rumors and Discussion

    The garden set includes a kid with a monkie kid shirt, nice touch. The wall story set looks gorgeous and is a definite buy for me!

    LEGO Monkie Kid 2021

    In the newly revealed Chinese New Year sets, specifically in the garden one, there’s a kid with a monkie kid shirt on under a jacket or over shirt of some kind. Could be a good civilian to add.

    LEGO Ninjago 2021

    You can’t post leaks or link them, but people do talk about them. if you want to show mocs start a thread for them, threads like this are for news and discussion on the official sets. and on the gardens, I’m pretty sure none of the sets are meant to 1-1 show anything from the movie or show worlds, they’re meant to give the feeling the city in the movie has, as well as occasionally translate certain design elements at different scales, so you aren’t gonna find anywhere that looks quite like city, docks, or gardens, but they will look like areas that could exist in that universe.
  17. version 2 of the blast cab, closer to my original vision of it being a blue truck reinforced with green armor, I feel it’s a lot more cohesive in this version. I refined the shape slightly, moved from bolt shooters to stud shooters with built up ammo, covered up the back, and slightly reinforced the front end to be more solid. Now it’s solid enough to stand up to play like any real set would need to. All that’s left is the roof and the back mounted canon, plus the bike and small environment builds for the “set” to be completed.
  18. Just these 3 for now, tonight I plan on getting a better balance on the color scheme and getting a few more pictures with better lighting.

    More LEGO Ghostbusters in 2020?

    This is part of those, it’s also based on the ghostbusters afterlife design, given the rc car ghost trap, the rust, and the images on the back, so any figs included would likely be spoilers as we still don’t know who or what the movies villain is, and don’t even have names for all 4 of the kids who will be the new ‘busters.

    LEGO Hidden Side 2020

    So in the new special it does confirm the existence, atleast at some point, of SPOILERS vampires, demons, living gargoyles, werewolves, and the Loch Ness monster, as well as countless other potential “sides” where monsters and other villains can come from SPOILERS which could lend some validity to my theory of the line being canceled to do away with the phone gimmicks and eventually return with a new name, more varieties of antagonist, and a retooled play pattern that doesn’t rely on the digital aspects.
  21. I’ve tried, didn’t get far tho. I think in the “assembling bricksburg” thread someone got it atleast partially done tho!

    LEGO Hidden Side 2020

    Those have already been announced, a full set of shorts for the new wave plus a longer special (rumored to be a Halloween special) im banking on this being something else since he’s the one who announced those things already and was fairly open about it at the beginning of the year.

    LEGO Ninjago 2021

    The docks and the city both look great on their own, I highly doubt the gardens will be worse. If anything I would guess the gardens will be a “new start” of sorts for the city since it is likely to be rebranded as a series/legacy item instead of a movie one

    LEGO Hidden Side 2020

    https://mobile.twitter.com/TommyAndreasen/status/1305590480391016450 so we are getting SOMETHING new. I have to wonder if the reason we aren’t seeing any hidden side leaks is because this is the end of the story, and will pick up with a retooled version of the theme under a new name later next year. It’s not like LEGO doesn’t listen to fan complaints sometimes, so to see the theme retooled to ditch the app focus and introduce some new villains/monsters/whatever wouldn’t surprise me. Heck, if this story ends with them sealing away the ghosts for good then it wouldn’t even make sense to keep calling the theme hidden side.

    Monkie Kid TV Show Thread

    A trailer for season one has dropped online, no English version yet. It doesn’t show too much plot-wise but definitely does still have stuff held over from wave 1 along with the new wave 2 stuff, and seems like it will be expanding on the iron bull plot a good bit as well as introducing the new villains that were hinted at in the pilot and intro. Given they know they’ll have atleast 2 seasons to work with now, I would expect the pacing to be far better than the pilot which HAD TO showcase everything in some way or another.
