    This is absolutely adorable. As always, it's a masterpiece of sculpture. The singular eye and all the horns give it lots of character as well.

    Too bad I already got that Nexo Power in the battle pack. Also too bad: no globlins in the lava monster battle pack. Really, I really want there to be a $10 set that is just as many globlins as they could pack into a set, maybe with a Squirebot and a Scurrier thrown in. I mean, I figure they could fit 80 globlins in a 10 euro set with that set up, and it'd instantly compensate for the disparity between the in-show and the in-set makeup of Jestro's forces. I'd probably buy two or three of them.

    Anyway, have you guys been making a lot of MOCs? I've been working on something I'm itching to release on the 9th.

    LDD is always useful if you feel you lack sufficient parts. Either way, I think that whatever comes out of that description will be amazing.

    I figured out a fix for the incompleteness of the balloon a while ago. It just requires you to set up a support system using the second 8-fold connector rather than the axle. It works in LDD quite well, but I'm not sure how well it'd work in real life. I'm guessing it'd be about as sturdy as the official version, considering that it's actually connected rather than resting on top of it. I think adding an 8th section should limit the jostling room for the other sections, too.

    I really doubt LEGO would make as complex a mold as the Scurrier one without reusing it, and that shark scurrier is just the cutest minion ever. I mean, I doubt we'll be getting the black armor from the game or golden armor, but stuff like Mushlord (whose sword seems about as complex as Clay's and thus relatively plausible) and the aquatic knights seem pretty likely. And Nexo Knights is doing tons of stuff other themes haven't. I think the Book of Monsters is pretty much guaranteed to play a role throughout the planned run of the theme, so the official version not including the monsters for those years would be strange. That, and I'm really hoping we get a version of that fly spear, possibly using glittery translucent plastic to represent its semi-translucent nature.

    I downloaded the update and, while the image still displays correctly in the preview, the parts and the "floor" are completely invisible when I actually open the file.

    I honestly think it was a rather strange choice to call the special versions of the knights "Ultimates", despite the fact that they're almost definitely going to release more special versions in 2017. I also wonder whether Nexo Knights will stick to a 3-year cycle of main characters, corresponding to the graduation of new knights. That way, they could slowly build up an ever-bigger world without making extreme levels of attention to the series a necessity to following it. Add in the fact that some characters, like Robin and Ava, would show up before their graduation, this would give each character large amounts of detail, especially if they bother to maintain the current amount of media (8 webisodes, power videos, 20 tv episodes a year and little things like the Knights of the Realm video from the app, which probably amounts to 9+ hours of media in total).

    Does anyone have any ideas how to approximate the mandibles of the Lava Beetle from the app with real bricks?

    Ok, here's the description: A red, six-legged rahi with a large mouth.

    I think Macy's is pretty sleek-looking, but not particularly mace-like. I do appreciate that it has the handle, though. Clay's is probably the best, with Lance's being the worst, although Aaron's crossbow looks somewhat chaotic as well. Incidentally, I did some calculations, and the bad guys have a lot fewer pieces in their sets overall (as in, the total amount of pieces in bad guy sets is lower than good guy sets). That wouldn't even be that big of a deal if they'd bothered to include a few extra globlins in sets. In the show they make up like 95% of Jestro's forces, in the sets they're only featured in Beast Master's sets and in the Glob Lobber. Here's hoping they'll be relatively cheap to order. I figure 50 of them will make a good army.

    Just finished building the smallest two sets, Ultimate Lavaria and Lance's Mecha Horse. I like them all a lot, but I'm a little confused why Lance's horse uses red 4-long axles and yellow 3-long ones, despite the fact that using the already existing black and light grey versions would fit better in the color scheme. Any idea what's going on with that?

    Finally got the update yesterday. Do we already have good pictures of Macy in full level 4 armor (the darkest kind, I presume, since Ultimate is apparently next)? If not, I'll take a few pictures of her before I start upgrading her to Ultimate Macy.
  14. DraikNova
    This seems interesting. I'll probably only have time to make something once this week is over, though, but I'm definitely interested in participating.
  15. DraikNova
    I'm guessing it's just not out in Europe yet, then.
  16. DraikNova
    That's really weird then. How do I get it to update?
  17. DraikNova
    Nope, Just checked, Axl isn't released yet and the rocklands still say "coming soon".
  18. DraikNova
    Right after Clay says "What's all this blah blah blah stuff? I never say stuff like that!" the background music goes to the part that sounds exactly like that...That's a very nice accident.

    Only watched part of episode 6 so far. I'm loving how snarky Jestro is getting, and how much more competent he seems to be at evil. He actually managed to get away with burning down most of a village!
  20. DraikNova
    I'm pretty sure Aaron's hair already exists.
  21. DraikNova
    No hair for Macy, though. I hope they make a hairpiece for her at some point, possibly using a clip to allow her plume to be used as the ponytail.
  22. DraikNova
    I wouldn't really mind that much, since it'd mean a more complete mace golem creature, but it'd be nice if we got the queen as well, or maybe a spider globlin (highly unlikely).
  23. DraikNova
    Based on that comparison picture, I'm guessing the Black Knight mech will also use the HF HUD piece as a windscreen, but in black. Also, I think the set will probably feature one of those mace-handed lava creatures, with Whiparella using it as a steed like she does in the episodes.

    Okoto is small enough that the Toa managed to travel it in a relatively short amount of time in 2015's story, so that "planet" appears to be smaller than Pluto, and way too small for it to even have a semblance of a round shape. Calling it now, as with G1, this is the result of something unnatural, possibly the power of the Mask of Creation being sent back in time using the Mask of Time.

    Okay, sorry for the double post, but all of the episodes are available online in dutch, and, while I haven't bothered to listen to the sound, among other things, there are Power Miners rock monsters (the bigger kind) featured in the maze of episode 7. A very nice little shoutout. It's also nice how some minor background details from "Knights of the Realm" are actually used as plot points in the actual episodes. Really liking the way this series is going. Meanwhile, the defeat of the black knight is pretty much entirely a Monty Python joke.
