Oops, I think we're talking about Lance's transforming horse-bike thing! The other standard robo-bikes that all the knights have (which you're talking about) is really nice!

Lego Ninjago 2016
Aethersprite replied to LegendsOfNinjago's topic in LEGO Action and Adventure Themes
I was looking closely at Jay's dragon, but I can't figure out how the legs connect to the main body. Hopefully it's different from that of Sensei Wu's dragon - the giant click hinges severely limited the pose-ability of the legs. -
I don't know why all of you are hating on the robo-horse-bike - I think the concept is awesome! I'm not about to judge it based off a couple of blur-ish pictures. I'll reserve my judgment for when I see a video review. So far, I'm set on getting the King's Mech, and maybe that creature set that comes with the Queen. This theme looks promising!

I wouldn't go so far as to say the 2015 gearbox is dreadful, but I do share his opinion that I didn't like how it caused the shoulders to be so far back, and exposed the shoulder balljoints on the existing torso. Thankfully this problem won't recur next year.

I prefer the prelim version. The finalized version really looks like a grumpy dwarf wearing a skullcap, as DV mentioned. The prelim version, unlike the animation version, is also less "blatantly evil", and more ornate. I like the more sloped gradient of its horns compared to the rounder finalized version. Oh well. Hopefully it looks better in-hand.

Lego Ninjago 2016

There definitely won't be a filler wave - but from the set names, it's hard to tell what theme the summer wave is going for. Hopefully it's Cole-centric! -
LEGO Star Wars 2016 Pictures and Rumors
Aethersprite replied to Brickdoctor's topic in LEGO Star Wars
No concrete source, just verbal rumours from our known-to-be-highly-reliable sources. -
I'm hoping for something Grievous-sized. Wouldn't seem much of an upgrade if his Destroyer form was small. Anyway, it just hit me: Onua's long hammer + swivel function = our first G2 Kolhii player!

That's an interesting list. Does this mean that Skybound is a year-long theme, and will continue into the summer? -

Nice, thanks for that. -
Marvel Superheroes 2016 Rumors And Discussion
Aethersprite replied to Quicksilver's topic in LEGO Licensed
There's space under the second cockpit, for sure, but whether there's an actual interior is up to Lego. Like the AOU Quinjet. -
Lego Ninjago 2016
Aethersprite replied to LegendsOfNinjago's topic in LEGO Action and Adventure Themes
I'm glad that Jay gets his pauldron in his dragon set! I'm liking the new head of the dragon a lot more. That set is a must-buy! EDIT: Can anyone make out which Djinn blades we're getting with Cole and Jay's dragons? I'm guessing they come with their respective characters (Cole's blade with Cole's dragon, Jay's blade with Jay's dragon) but I'm not sure. -
LEGO Star Wars 2016 Pictures and Rumors

The X-Wing looks almost identical to the previous one, save the engines. Not too keen on these Microfighters. -
Marvel Superheroes 2016 Rumors And Discussion
Aethersprite replied to Quicksilver's topic in LEGO Licensed
Captain Marvel's masked head looks absolutely horrible. Ugh. I'm gonna leave her with her fleshie head. Hopefully we see more pics of the Avenjet soon! I'm curious as to whether it has an interior. -
Well, count me in the minority here, but I quite like how the sets look! The Creatures are amazing and I'm getting them all. I'm glad the Toa have some form of unique Technic build - it differentiates them from each other more than 2015 did.

Marvel Superheroes 2016 Rumors And Discussion
Aethersprite replied to Quicksilver's topic in LEGO Licensed
Who said that it's a summer set? Didn't we hear a rumour that there would be a 4th exclusive CW set, similar to AOU's Hydra Fortress? -
Very creative. I love it!

Marvel Superheroes 2016 Rumors And Discussion
Aethersprite replied to Quicksilver's topic in LEGO Licensed
I don't see why it's so hard for Lego to give us molded boots - even CMFs have them! Really disappointed that Cap doesn't have them. I hope Lego gives him molded boots for the CW sets, at least. -
LEGO Star Wars 2016 Pictures and Rumors
Aethersprite replied to Brickdoctor's topic in LEGO Star Wars
Unfortunately, that probably means that we'll have to wait till Summer 2016 to get TFA Luke! I'm really glad we're seeing Leia in the Winter wave, at least. -
I'm in a similar situation - of the 2015 sets, I have all the Toa, but only Korgot and Ekimu/Kulta. Come 2016 I doubt I'll have space to get all the Toa-heroes again. I'm definitely getting Tahu and Kopaka, and maybe Onua or Lewa if I have the cash. I'm loving the Creatures, though, so I'll definitely get them all. Plus, they're small and easier to find space for. As for Umarak, I think I'll hold out and wait to see his Destroyer form before deciding to buy his Hunter form. His Hunter form doesn't appeal to me much - if anything, I'd get it for the Mask of Control.

LEGO Star Wars 2016 Pictures and Rumors
Aethersprite replied to Brickdoctor's topic in LEGO Star Wars
I doubt he knows more than we do at this point - but that's a pretty good guess. I'm hoping for a FO Stormie, given the disappointing FO BP. Also, is it confirmed that Takodana will be US$50? -

LEGO Star Wars 2016 Pictures and Rumors
Aethersprite replied to Brickdoctor's topic in LEGO Star Wars
Thanks for that, J2G. Maz looks pretty spot-on with the look we got of her in the poster. Wow, if the Battle of Takodana includes Maz, unmasked Kylo, Finn with a lightsaber... It sounds like a great set! Hopefully we get pictures soon. -
Marvel Superheroes 2016 Rumors And Discussion
Aethersprite replied to Quicksilver's topic in LEGO Licensed
Avenjet looks meh, it's only saving grace would be if it has a nice interior. I think I'd save my money for the CW sets, though. -
Thanks for the update, VBBN :)
