Poodles.

Bottom row, second from the right. That has to be the worst CMF ever produced. I mean, could you find a more obvious way to rip off the Riddler? You thought that by making him that awful shade of orange we wouldn't notice? I'm very disappointed as a fan. In fact, this clear example of plagiarism is the final straw. I give up. Goodbye, Lego.

^ Great post. Agree with everything you said. A lot of the Castle fans who grew up on Forestmen, Black Knights, Crusaders, etc. tend to be blind by nostalgia and forget how basic the old sets were. The brand has evolved over time, and had they kept making endless generic Space, Pirates Castle and Town they would have faded into irrelevance or gone out of business altogether. New generations mean new toys. Kids these days like things that go boom and things they can swoosh. Lego delivers. Lego makes money. Rinse and repeat. Since the design team themselves said they they read these threads, I think that they take our criticism seriously. They did the best they could be incorporate Castle elements into the storyline handed down to them from the higher powers, and I applaud them for that. Also, remember that Lego's strategy with big bang themes is to make them darker as their original target age group gets older, making it easier to win them over to buy more sets because it still fits their interests and they have nostalgia from when the theme first launched. Down the road, maybe around Nexo's third year, I suspect that the designers will start to move the theme closer to regular Castle and tone down on the wacky vehicles. Just because you start out not liking Nexo doesn't mean that it won't eventually appeal to you down the road. You say this a lot, but I would like to remind you that Ninjago is probably only getting one fairly small wave next year. There are Anacondri and Ghost waves sets are literally clogging the shelves around here, and Lego looks like they're giving the Ninja a breather so Nexo can get off and running. Personally, that's why I think the movie got pushed back.

Just noticed something in Lance's bio: "Being a part of a team tasked the protecting the realm" Knighton is one of the sixteen.

The robots are called "Squire Bots" and the one in Lance's Mecha Horse is named Dennis. I like how all of the knights come from different villages and have rivalries with one another, the story feels more realistic than KK2. Thanks for the link!

Welcome to EB, Tim!

I feel like the bakery has a shot if the creator sizes it down a little bit. The bonus for getting to 1000 should help, too.

Ninjago Wave one: 2 Dragons Wave two: 2 Dragons Total: 4 Nexo Knights Wave one: Fortrex, Mini-Fortrex, 2 Motorcycles, 3 Hover Horses, King's Mech, Mecha Horse, Rumble Blade, Plane Total: 11

Knew this would happen, although I don't know why Lego wants them taken down. The target audience doesn't care/know about leaks anyways, and no clone brand could replicate a product in less than a month.

Knew it. TTV has all of the pictures, and Brickset has them all except for the Mech, Giant Lava Monster, and Library.

^ Agreed. This is a public forum, so everyone can share their opinion, positive or negative, but calling another man's hard work "Eye Cancer" (As done in another thread) is going to far. If you really hate something that strongly, then you should probably go to another board to talk about something that you actually like or go back into your dark ages if you so feel.

Welcome, Barc!
