Ah, well I guess my words came out differently than how I intended. My bad, however I assume that Chima has also been designed up to 2014. It just seems from the way that the sets and concepts look, that it's story will work similar to Ninjago, with about 2 years of sets. That's just my thought from what I've seen so far.

Didn't see a Ninjago topic for the theme in general, so I guess here works. The Ninjago Wiki has an interview with Ninjago designer Samuel Johnson. Check it out! http://ninja.brickcraft.me/wiki/News:Interview_with_LEGO_Designer_Samuel_Johnson

Good point. And if it doesn't appear as a set, I'm sure it will appear in the TV series if those rumors are in fact true (I'm almost certain they are).

We also don't know if it'll be a set or not yet. :/ It could have been designed but deemed unprofitable, like the Treehouse Fortress set in Ninjago. I sure hope it is released though.

The Chima Wiki (a new project, from the makers of The Ninjago Wiki), brings you multiple teaser images from LEGO Legends of Chima! I'm not including the ones that most everyone has seen so far. Just in case you by any chance haven't seen them, here you go. This appeared today: A nice, high-res shot of the orb, however I had already made a nice SVG of one here. I'll revise that using this HD one later today. A very cool image, I think. The being in the background... Possible Chima constraction set? A pretty cool image of a Speedor (a Speedorz?): This is a very awesome floating island. Possible gorilla clan? Who knows... It is prelim though, but it could be something later in 2013 or 2014. Another set image: Another prelim, but gives us a good idea of what the setting of the theme will be like: Also, I have some great news from Jim Foulds regarding Chima: Chima has already been designed for the next two years!

I doubt LEGO would make a new mini figure just for an exclusive set, though those would be cool.

Does anybody else feel reminded of Exo-Force by this upcoming wave? Mechs, Temples, Lots of gold? :P

Oh my. The sets look quite weird but awesome. The pieces and colors seem great. I might get some but I dunno.

That could really make an awesome game, but maybe more like GTA, where you can also walk around and stuff, and made in the style of the TV show. I can't wait for the rest of the season. It seems to be taking the approach to go out in an epic finale. The one thing that I don't hope is that too many questions are left unanswered, but when I talked to Jay Vincent on the phone, he assured me that it ends with all questions answered.

Interesting. I can't wait to see it! Maybe can you take some photos? :)

When you described the emblem on his back, it doesn't sound familiar to the Lloyd ZX emblem I'm familiar with. Is it the same as this one or different?

Well to start off, I guarantee that Friends will last longer, as Lord of the Rings I believe will be over after 2013, just because that's the kind of licensed theme I see it as. Friends I feel is more like the kind of theme City is, which can be adapted with multiple settings and themes among each year's sets. In the years that I think both Lord of the Rings and Friends will bring in an equal annual profit, just because of the popularity of Friends and the fact of LotR being licensed, therefore costing more.

Thanks for the review, but as people have said, pictures could easily make this better. I did read the majority, and it's a quite convincing review to me. Of the Monster Fighters sets, this one is probably the one I want the most.

Hmm... the minifigures seem interesting, but that one leaked set hasn't hooked me on the theme at all. Personally, Ninjago seems to be a lot cooler than the concept of Legends of Chima from what I've seen. Possibly that will change, and I really hope I have something to look forward to.

Wow. I'd actually never heard of this organization, but it's surely a great cause! Sometime I might buy one of the creations to donate.

Has anybody else noticed, and this really is being proved by the 2013 sets, that Ninjago has been moving further and further along technologically? In 2011, the most technological stuff we had were the Skeleton vehicles, but now, in 2013 we have these heavily sci-fi tanks, mechs, etc. I mean, 2013 I guess lines up somewhat with the 2012 technology, but seeing the 2013 sets I'm starting to wonder how and where the Stone Army, one of the most ancient race in Ninjago, will get themselves this tank and other heavy machinery.

Great work on this little MOC! I love how you made the T-Rex and the HQ look practically the same as in the set but smaller. The little raptors are pretty cute as well.

Thanks for the review! I really like Fang-Suei, as a character in the show and as a minifigure. He's probably my favorite Fangpyre minifigure. His spinner crown is also really nice.

Amazing job! This is truly gorgeous! I love how the angles, though they aren't perfectly streamlined, look great once chromed.
