Secrets Of The Forbidden Spinjitzu That's the official name of the season

Do you have a pic of his alternative face?

Some days ago I was watching a review about all the Spinjitzu Slams and I realized the Kai's head has his original black eyebrows! Look!

The thing with that head is that it has the Lloyd's facial expression but it also has the Jay's eyebrows. That's where the confussion about that head comes from. So, no one knows

And how do you know that a TV show won't take an insane amount of money to make? Most of their TV shows are animated in 3D, which is too expansive for being a harder animation to make than 2D. TLG has to becareful with how many TV shows they release, because they don't know which ones will be a success and wich ones won't. It's not a "Oh, I do it and that's it". No, they have to find a Studio Animation, competent writer(s), producers, voice actors, etc, and they have to pay to all those people who are in the project.

While I agree in the part where lego didn't make enough promotion for those themes and that make them Big Bang style themes would make them more succesful, I don't think that others themes were a problem back then. Because if the Ninjago theme can sell with no problem while sharing shelves with, say, Star Wars without one overshadowing the another one, why is impossible that the same thing happen to the classic themes? I don't see how get rid of a theme(s) because it gets more attention than another one would be a solution

Supporting what

Excatly

You replied a lego davis's comment wich said that he wasn't totally sure about if todays kids would enjoy a theme in wich they weren't around (he didn't say wich one specific) and you said that certain themes haven't even been given a "fair" chance. My point was that there were themes of the past wich did have a chance to be bestsellers again, but that kids just didn't care for

So, you're technically saying that KotZ, MAB and I shouldn't express our disagreement in your opinion but you can express yours

You can express your disapproval about everything you want, but don't expect everybody to be agree with you

There was a Castle theme in 2013 wich pulled to look a lot like its classic counterpart and it just endured a year, same with the Pirates theme in 2015. So, lego GAVE that chance to the classic Castle and Pirate theme to shine but, unforunately, kids didn't pay attention to them.

I think it could work more with the AFOLs with a Hidden Side Style app rather than a Ninjago Style TV Show

Oh you want evidence? ok, there you have it The top performing themes in 2018 were, in no particular order: Technic Ninjago City Friends Star Wars 2017's best selling themes include: City NINJAGO Creator DUPLO. These themes accounted for the greatest revenue in 2016 City Star Wars NINJAGO Friends Creator DUPLO The top 5 bestselling themes in 2015 were: Duplo City Ninjago Star Wars Friends Top Bestselling themes in 2014 were: LEGO City LEGO Creator THE LEGO MOVIE You can download the PDF. of all of these Annual Reports here: https://www.lego.com/en-us/aboutus/lego-group/annual-report In the other hand, if you have evidence that the lego City sets don't sell anymore, why don't you provide us with that information then?

Without mention that most of the users here don't buy the current sets, so

The book is from 9 years ago, yes. But as no other version has come out, it's still valid. And now I ask you, do you have proof that the percentage of adults who buy lego for themselves have grown drastically in the last 9 years? and please. Don't answer with an anecdote or under a supposition

https://brickset.com/article/567/what-percentage-of-lego-sales-are-to-afols Now, thanks to the 2010 issue of The Brick, the annual LEGO magazine aimed at stakeholders and customers, we have an answer. On page 60, it states "...a little under 5% of the LEGO sales come from adults who buy bricks for themselves"

I don't think so. The shuricopter was never seen being put in by the ninja in the Land Bounty (like the Dirt Bike and the Katan 4x4)

Of course the kids will ask to their parents to buy them those toys. The adults are a big target outside of lego, not for nothing the AFOLs represent only 5% of their earnings. Obviously that doesn't mean they can't target adults sometime, but they won't do that in a theme like City. Most of the sets that are target 16+ audience come from Creator, The LEGO Movies and Licensed themes, And I'm sure there are AFOLs who buy those sets but, unfortunately, that doesn't change they're a minority group that buys lego. And obviously, they're not gonna set aside a 95% for just a 5%.

I said "Main Target". The adults aren't their main target, obviously

Everything in a company is to make money. What do you want them to do? To spend their money trying to please the tastes of an adult? This is a toy company wich main target are the children, not adults In a side note, a person can't respect the opinion of others when it comes to discuss. The point of discussing is that you criticize the opinion of others and that the others criticize your opinion for an agreement to be reached between all of us. If you don't want anyone to criticize your opinion, don't say anything then.

I think the reason TLG puts too many sub-themes in City instead of make them their own themes is because is cheaper and safe sales, but I don't know. Personally, I don't care. Sub-themes or not, most of the sets look good

Maybe Please no, not another love-plot
