a guy from somewhere

Wow, talk about deja vu, correct me if im wrong but this is like the exact same message word for word? No hate, im just kinda surprised by this. But yes, im extremely excited for whats to come. Hopefully we get descriptions before the sets fully leak. It hasn't been mentioned but I just want to say im so happy to see lego promoting this on their channel and we aren't getting a blurry version in another language from some obscure leaker. This is lego taking care of their IP

Yeah, really hoping we get set descriptions soon. Really want to hear about the bounty, it’s easily my most anticipated set now. From what we can get from the trailer, it seems this will be the opening to the season, and the trailer we saw on the 1st comes after that. I can see Lloyd narrating the beginning of the episode and as we get each individual shot of the ninja he does a voice over, like “Kai, master of fire”. Wu seems to be on his last legs, he seems to be preparing Lloyd for “the next step”, and he’s looking for scrolls of “coalescence”, which is the joining or merging of elements into one whole mass, which lines up with what Lloyd says at the end of the trailer, as the Titan mech and the bounty fly towards the city. Above it, the “merge” and we can see into the realm above it. From my point of view, it looks like a city, and when flipped upside down it’s clear that it’s some sort of settlement with a tower in the centre, and this looks like the one IMDB image we got of a city with a tower in the middle with 2 moons overhead… After comparing it with the image, I’m 100 percent certain this is the same tower. 2prongs on the side can be seen, with a thin structure at the top. The settlement is circular in shape with lots of smaller buildings, and around it is desert, which is the same as the IMDB image. Very exciting to see that we already have our first look into a new realm. I also find it funny that this is yet again something Wu just hasn’t bothered to mention to any of the ninja, honestly if Wu just told the ninja everything that could happen half the story of Ninjago would be solved in 5 mins. theory time now, I think the actual story of the show will open maybe a year after what we have currently seen, as Lloyd is narrating. He will tell us what happened, and then we will cut to what would be present day. Arin will be grown up, everyone will have the new imperial suits, the bounty will be upgraded and modified for trans dimensional transport (along with a range of new tech and vehicles) and we will be half way through the ninjas mission to undo the chaos of the merge, like an “in medias res” story. The only current issue I see with this is that we see the merge close in the first trailer, and there’s no shot of the bounty flying into it, so I’m not sure how the ninja cross over into the shattered realms. I also wonder if Wu will actually die in this season or if this is just far foreshadowing.

Given that Ninjago gets attacked by a major villain seemingly twice a year, the consequences of this would be catastrophic! In all seriousness though I’m really excited now, can’t wait to get our hands on the set descriptions. Hoping the bounty isn’t too unique as I don’t actually own a regular bounty yet.

Alright, you guys got me. Rewatching the trailer, it looks like there’s an X symbol on the kids shirt, and that’s also the letter A in ninjargon. Cool, but I’m confused about the time skip stuff. Maybe he’s the new Lloyd and he gets tall legs by magic? Also confused why the bounty is back, and more importantly what will the new bounty look like? I’m expecting now that the bounty set we get will be a Jerry rigged destiny’s bounty, built or rebuilt from scraps like the destiny’s wing in hunted. What event would change the bounty so much that it becomes a completely different vehicle, necessitating a new set? Can’t wait for these product descriptions to land. I was kinda hoping we would see a new bounty variant in this trailer and series…

Maybe the realm of madness gives Arin his tall legs? I’m of the opinion that it isn’t Arin, mainly because of the shot of Lloyd sliding down the chain and onto land, I think it’s just some random kid they picked up in the chaos, took on the bounty, then dropped off somewhere else to safety could be wrong though, I’m just not seeing the connection to Arin (apart from the colour I guess). Why does everyone think it’s Arin? Is it due to the fact he appears twice in the trailer?

Never mind, its a random civilian that Lloyd saves. Im gonna pick through the trailer frame by frame for a couple mins now. According to jakobspointofview on insta the season will be called “relics of darkness”, apparently from Lego customer service. Not really buying it, they say that the season will release may 1st as well. Damn cool name if it is real.

Although actually, considering what we have seen from the other leaked figures, the last one may be true as well. the demons do have an older feel of them, as does Ras, (im referring to the magazine manifest leak from a while back) and we know time travel is somewhat involved due to Krux being in the team mech set. As for Arin, are you referring to the shot at 13 seconds in where the camera goes past the bounty?

Doc has also revealed 2 truths and 1 lie, they are as follows - cloud kingdom will see the rise of a new elemental master the realm of madness will defend itself from dangerous dragons the departed realm will release the spirits of ancient creatures forgotten by history Im thinking the last one is a lie, considering dragons are in multiple sets and that we see one in the trailer.

Im gonna take a guess and say the the imperials are the bad guys this season, the set is elemental dragon vs imperial, which would mean the elemental dragon is a good guy dragon. The dragon shown in the show has no affiliation (as we know off anyways, it just stands there.... menacingly!) so it seems more likely that this is the heatwave dragon. Its also called heatwave transforming lava dragon in the set name and seems to have mechanical parts on its head in the trailer so thats why I think its the heatwave one.

Second this. ABSOLUTLY INSANE! Love the look at what I presume is the heatwave dragon, and the jay titan mech looks great. The storyline already looks amazing, an evacuation and rescue of citizens as all hell breaks loose in the first episode sounds like a great opening and the animation, holy cow is it gorgeous! love everything about this! The detail on the ninjas hoods looks so good So it looks like lloyds lost his powers, multiple dimensions or timelines colliding, that would explain the weird purple line on the art we saw for the team mech set pictures, and core suits are the new main suits which im happy to see. This looks phenomenal.

Yes, I did see that. Very happy, and I’m also glad that they are trying their best to pick out the real stuff from the fake, a testament in my opinion to how reliable promobricks really is. The picture is now on Instagram, looks very nice actually. Can’t wait for the markets, hopefully we see the set soon.

Providing this is real, I guess this confirms a suspicion in the back of my mind, we could be getting garmadons crystalized apartment with him in his “chill robes” and a brick built christofern? Would love to get some of the apocalypse paper warriors as well, an Antonia to go with the Nelson we got in the Sam-X mech and some other paper crew kids would be great. Hopefully we get Gale gossip as well.

Is the pic on Instagram? It’s a private group, and I’m not about to make a Facebook account just to see a leak. Could you DM it to me through eurobricks?

Zane hood piece has leaked, seems to have an indent on the right hand side of it, looks to be deliberate so I wonder if we will get a flapping headband design like the twin ribbon design for Hanzo and Genji from that one overwatch set. Also the energy core shows up again, it’s a little bigger than a regular technic sphere so that’s kinda cool. Really hope we get some big news soon, I appreciate the drip feed but I want to see descriptions or blurry box pics, or a trailer.

I believe we are scheduled for a straight section, which would be what I want now, as I already own gardens and I have my own custom corner module. Im just excited to see where it goes, im hoping for some way to get to the upper level from the lower level. the only official way is that single person elevator in the original city set, which isn't suitable especially as no one can get the damn set anymore. Another small bit of news, we finally have a release window for the crystallised whip, better late than never I guess, but apparently something else will be released alongside it. Personally im hoping for a Spotify release of the Crystallised soundtrack, or the trailer for ninjago united. "Released in May" is the official wording.

More pics have been leaked from ninjafan, they look very cool actually. One seems to show an explosion in Ninjago city, maybe time related, but it looks like the overlords original form (like that pink weird orb) and the other one is maybe a shot from that subsequent explosion. The last one doesn’t look like Ninjago at all, it’s like it’s from a game or something. Like really good graphics.

Lower armour piece has leaked, I like it. Seems like good movement for arms, however it looks kinda prototype/unfinished, especially with the buttons at the front on the right shoulder. Other than that, it can hold 2 sword parts, and I think it looks very good on its own without the top mask part, especially for a traveler/wanderer type character. Hopefully Cole’s one is black and not orange or brown, although brown could still work. More info from the video it originated from (I won’t post the vid, as I think it’s technically a leak) but it can hold the flowing ribbon part monkey king has, and the back is the old ZX katana holder, which I’m so damn glad that’s back. Looks very good on a custom fig the vid creator made (I think it’s custom anyways, I’m not to versed in superhero’s and stuff. Creator is: Kisha. Go check out their vid.

They are the dragon energy cores from the temple set.

We are already in it. Cant see the pic, is it on instagram? @Fire-Ninja could you DM me the pic? I cant find anything on insta, and im assuming that its a picture of the leaked lower mask part?

Thats fair enough, and to be expected as well. But im glad hes at least acknowledged it. I'm still thinking its kinda fake, he emphasises "how utterly, wildly, massively wrong they are" so I think thats a good enough hint. In another post he has said answers are coming sooner than you may think, so with set reveals on the horizon and leak season underway, im excited to see where this leads in the coming days.

"The new season of Ninjago begins with a shocking twist: A mysterious enemy has traveled through time and altered key events in ninja history, creating a dangerous alternate timeline. The ninja team must race against time to find a way to set things right before it's too late. But the task proves more difficult than they ever imagined, as they battle new enemies and struggle to keep their own memories of the original timeline intact. Traveling through time, they soon stumble upon a long-forgotten race of dragons, powerful beings who hold the key to restoring the timeline. But the dragons are guarded by a ferocious and cunning dragon hunter who will stop at nothing to destroy anyone who threatens his power. With the dragons and their incredible abilities, the ninja must outsmart and outsmart the dragon hunter in an exciting race against the clock. But as the stakes get higher and the enemies become more powerful, they must also confront their own demons." Seems interesting, but somewhat repetitive (time twins and dragon hunters) but the idea of memory degrading and the time dragons seems very fresh and interesting. should probably say this is from ninjafan_ on instagram, incase anyone didn’t see the msg above. The story lines up with what we know, Ras and his crew seem to be the main villains whilst krux and acronix are secondary villains. There’s no mention of the other characters like Sorla and Arin. There is a mistake however, which is telling me it’s fake. The phrase “they must outsmart and outsmart” is very suspicious. I doubt offical Lego marketing would make this sort of mistake.

The magazine picture that leaked showed a much bulkier shoulder armour/shawl cover, and I think the top mask goes on top, a bit like a ninja version of the dragon hunter armour from season 9, and how you can combine and swap the top and bottom parts around. There must be a sword holder at least right?

It happened! We got another leak, a figure leak this time. Pretty rare nowadays. Wow, I actually love this new Lloyd figure, looks very clean, and the duel mask is back. New faceprint looks good, but I’m half and half on the “simple” design. I think it looks great on the torso, the back especially but the legs feel way to plain. It needed printing on the bottom leg IMO. The eye mask looks cool, hopefully we see the full mask piece soon as it looks like the top half is already there, just not shown….

There’s the new tuner garage set that uses the clip system introduced with monkie kid and used in the blacktron GWP, the cars follow the same idea. I could see it coming to Ninjago but apart from mechs, I’m not really sure how they would fit it in unless everyone had the same vehicle with different colours, like the seabound sub pods. so a couple things to talk about, the main one being the new images. They were confirmed to be real by the new writer, Doc, and this guy has made a very good impression as the new show runner, I feel like we are in good hands. I love the techno- vibes we get from the pics, and it’s very much in theme with the actual set that leaked a while back, like old time Ninjago but with integrated technology. Pie seems to be important, it’s mentioned a couple times. The shot of the city looks amazing, 2 moons so maybe this is a new realm? Been long enough, although I’d still like to see Ninjago (the actual island) explored more. The mech image looks very good, and I have seen theories that these mechs are actually some of the sets, and the idea is that they transform into the set names, like one will will be the transforming heatwave lava dragon, and one will be Sorlas mech bike? Maybe? I like mechs but the concepts proposed are actually more interesting to me. Can’t wait to start getting more leaks for this, descriptions are gonna be amazing. I guess the new realm explains the new characters, they’re like the ninja but in this realm, not Ninjago. Wonder if it’s gonna be a parallel universe type of deal. last thing I wanted to talk about was the price increases in the summer, they’re not much but it’s weird that all the (revealed) summer sets have gone up a couple of pounds/dollars. And they’re weird prices too, no longer divisible by 5! NOOOO! In all seriousness though it’s kinda annoying after last summer, and the record profits Lego is constantly flaunting. Hopefully Ninjago isn’t hit too hard.

Looks slick, especially for an alt build. The only issue I could see would be the 1x2 hinge plates that fold inwards on the back of the mech for the wings, I’m gonna take a guess and say they’re not particularly stable? That 2 stud clutch has never worked for me with those parts. I love the angled torso design, and the tyres for thrusters and the folding wings are pure creativity! Love this little mech.
