Some members in the Nexo Knights 2016 thread wanted a thread to discuss rumors for the next "real" Castle theme, so here it is. In this topic, you can: *Talk about all things Castle *Talk about rumors for new Castle sets *And make wish lists if you so feel. Hopefully this will sort out some of the clutter in that thread. Happy posting!

Okay, so 1. Jestro 2. Baddie with hood/chains: Monster Master 3. Baddie with mohawk/crossbow: ? 4. Baddie with sword/horns: ? 5. Baddie with giant fists: Moltor 6. Baddie with swords (?): Monster Masher 7. Baddie with spider legs: Lavaria 11. Lava golem varient 1 12. Lava golem varient 2 13. Lava golem varient 3 14. Bigfig lava golem with staff: Sparkz Pretty good lineup if you ask me, especially for the first wave. Two different types of foot soldier, a giant, and an evil Jester. Does anyone know if the mohawk guy is just a regular grunt? He appears in the three smallest sets.

, magic books,

Serious stuff, guys.

Fortrex can open!

*Checks email* *253 new replies* Good to see that NYCC was covered in Nexo stuff! Looks like they are trying to push this theme even more than Chima and Ninjago. Fortrex and the Evil Mobile ( ) look great, although I don't like how there are only three figs for 60 bucks in the latter, although one is huge and another is Jestro. Can I get a list of names for each baddie? How many are there, six? TV show looks a lot better than Chima's, that's for sure. King and Queen are great, and we actually get regular soldiers. Just noticed that the teaser videos show the Nexo Knights embarrassing Classic Castle knights in various tasks. In other words, Lego knows full well that some of you hate this theme, and they couldn't care less.

Do we have word that this is an official reveal of Fortrex? Maybe the whole line? Or the story?

NYCC

Good catch, Sci! If they don't reveal any sets, I'm hoping that they at least give a synopsis of the theme, really curious to see what it's about.

Correct. That one was for the people who say that this isn't a Castle theme at all. The point I was trying to make is that there are only two regular soldiers who only come in the smallest sets for no apparent reason, and there are no grunts in any of the other sets, even the Castle itself.

Hmm...... looks like Lego is keeping up their site's message board for Castle 2013, presumably to repurpose it into a Nexo Knights one, just as they did with Kingdoms and Castle 2013. You know what that means...

I was talking about the regular soldiers, who are for some reason only seen in the two smallest sets. I'm fine with the way the knights themselves are distributed.

That's one huge army! Love the background.

Welcome to EB!

crunched.

I like how this MOC is triangular instead of a square. The tree looks great! Nice tags.

October 8-11. Can't wait!

So can these lava guys (The little ones) only move their arms?

But why are the bad guys on planes flying out of the good guy's Castle?

Who's riding it? So there are only two regular soldiers for the Nexos in the whole wave, and they are both in the cheapest sets?

That poster looks great! Glad to see that Aaron, the Lava Golem, and the mysterious "Giant Castle" are now included. Speaking of the giant Castle, it seems that Fortrex is just a mobile base and the real home of the Nexo Knights is a huge, and potentially veeeeery expensive Castle! Looks like there is some sort of electric bridge leading to it, and some regular soldiers on flyers (?) patrolling around. I'm getting ahead of myself, but possible summer wave preview? CN logo in the corner. TV show confirmed. PS: Is this the November/December issue of the magazine or what?

.........and Robert8 doesn't like you. @Sci I feel like these "Classic Castle or Die" guys in this thread don't realize exactly how much they disliked the 2013 line until Lego brings it back. After that, they will be up in arms screaming for a return to Fantasy Era.
