Kaanere Posted September 19, 2015 Posted September 19, 2015 (edited) I've found the leaked picture that some guys are talking about, and shows Jestro, a lava monster, the front of the castle tank and some knights. Edited September 19, 2015 by Bob De Quatre Quote
Pulp Detective Posted September 19, 2015 Posted September 19, 2015 (edited) Just saw the promo art for the series.....and from what I've seen thus far I'll have to say I'm disappointed.The "lava" monsters look wierd and not in a good way,even thought I like how Jestro looks(imagine the joker wearing a jester oufit).But what bothers me the most(and I know this is a nitpick)is the heroes face prints,not only they look generic they also look bland and boring.Guess I have to wait for the official set pics to form a final opinion.

The_Fiery_Rooster Posted September 19, 2015 Posted September 19, 2015 (edited) I've found the leaked picture that some guys are talking about, and shows Jestro, a lava monster, the front of the castle tank and some knights. I still can't find it. I've tried your suggestion and about three other searches and still can't find it. Could there be any reason I can't find it, or am I not looking hard enough? Edit: Nevermind. found it. Edited September 19, 2015 by NetherCreeper Quote
Captain Sweatpants Posted September 19, 2015 Posted September 19, 2015 The one thing I was most intrigued by is a figure that looks like he has armored arms, like big gauntlets. Its clearly visible, so I hope this is an actual new piece and not just artistic flair in the illustration. It looked like it could work in a historic setting, but it may not have hand pivoting. I don't know how the rest of that fig would work, but the hand looks to me like the big fist minifig-accessory from Chima and I think an Ultra Agents set. The punching-tank-thing. Quote
lightningtiger Posted September 19, 2015 Posted September 19, 2015 Oh, I found the image. Well, I see this theme moving from castle to either action or sci-fi........and to me at the moment is a complete meh ! Quote

You are not looking hard enough, I don't know if i'm allowed to help you :s But you are looking for a leaked nexo knights image? I would just use those exact words Edited September 19, 2015 by Captain Sweatpants Quote
Pulp Detective Posted September 19, 2015 Posted September 19, 2015 (edited) I hope that at least we'll get some good parts,I'm really curious about those magic books. Edited September 19, 2015 by LOTR34 Quote
The_Fiery_Rooster Posted September 19, 2015 Posted September 19, 2015 Found the picture. Love the large orange knight! To the right there appears to be a large lava monster. with a cyclops head. Is this the brick-built monster in Jestro's set that was mentioned? (or at least I think one was mentioned) Quote
Captain Sweatpants Posted September 19, 2015 Posted September 19, 2015 NetherCreeper yeah I just saw your edit :p Quote
lightningtiger Posted September 19, 2015 Posted September 19, 2015 Okay, so it appears we have a female knight too ? Who chose this product......Lego or say Cartoon Network ? Another five heroes and look one is green like Lloyd......oh, boy another odd ball theme that is either going to hit or miss right ? Quote
Kalhiki Posted September 19, 2015 Posted September 19, 2015 Found the (or a? Is there just one?) picture. Oh my, yes. I love how this looks. That Big Knight looks fantastic. Love him. And Jestro is... Kinda terrifying. Also loving that Lava Golem guy in the back. He looks looks cool. Oh, and is that a new chain piece? Looks like the stud at the end has a link that's vertically attached rather than horizontal. That seems useful. Quote
Captain Sweatpants Posted September 19, 2015 Posted September 19, 2015 (edited) Aaaaaand I'm in :p Looking at the shoulders on the armour this would work for a Warhammer 40k space marine chapter :) Also is that a new piece on the towers of the tankcastle? (Blue, horizontal slit, some sort of panel) Edited September 19, 2015 by Captain Sweatpants Quote
CM4Sci Posted September 19, 2015 Posted September 19, 2015 Ok, you us saw the catalog cover. If permission from source guy I'll post everything. Well... yeah that's Nexo Knights! Quote
Captain Sweatpants Posted September 19, 2015 Posted September 19, 2015 Ok, you us saw the catalog cover. wut? ;) I'm sorry I don't get what this means Quote
CM4Sci Posted September 19, 2015 Posted September 19, 2015 You guys saw the catalog cover. The 4chan guy is posting pictures for everything. Welp. Quote
Captain Sweatpants Posted September 19, 2015 Posted September 19, 2015 You guys saw the catalog cover. Ah, thank you. And the frantic googling begins again! Quote
The_Fiery_Rooster Posted September 19, 2015 Posted September 19, 2015 The leak season has begun. Quote
Dannylonglegs Posted September 19, 2015 Posted September 19, 2015 You guys saw the catalog cover. The 4chan guy is posting pictures for everything. Welp. Leaks on 4chan? I want to see the leaks... but 4chan... guess no leaks for me. :hmph_bad: I have not yet seen more than the delightful drawings yet, but as is the case with most silly themes like this, Ninjago, and Chima, I am confident I will dislike the theme and find it childish or otherwise a waste of my money, and subsequently miss out on a whole load of awesome and readily usable parts and figures, only to realize my mistake when they are no longer in stores. ~Insectoid Aristocrat Quote
Captain Sweatpants Posted September 19, 2015 Posted September 19, 2015 (edited) Looking at all the sets, I can only say, I wish I had bought the castle 2013 line. I thought 'this one is a bit childish, I'll just get the next one.' Or should I say Nexo one ;) Ah well, looks like I'll be making some ultramarines :) I think the visor of the driver in 70315 will come in really handy for this (champion!) any 40k-lover out there who like this theme? And what doest everyone think? Any favorites? Edited September 19, 2015 by Captain Sweatpants Quote
DarthBrickus Posted September 19, 2015 Posted September 19, 2015 I went to 4chan. I didnt find the leaks. I didnt even understand whats going on. I left. Quote
thetang22 Posted September 19, 2015 Posted September 19, 2015 There might be a few usable bits from the minifigs, but for the most part, everything looks too techy. I'll be curious what the leg and torso prints look like, but based on whats viewable, the legs prints already look too sci-fi to be usable in Castle. I'd have to imagine the torsos are the same case. While the shields could possibly get some use, at first glance they look too big and clunky. I'd like to get a better view of the closed visors, as those seem like they might have some use in traditional Castle settings. I think the thing that is most dissapointing is the new weapon/armor molds from Lego compared to what can be found from 3rd part accessory providers. I get excited at the thought of seeing new accessories from Lego, only to be dissapointed that they are frequently worse than what's already available from these 3rd party providers. Quote
blarghiflargh Posted September 19, 2015 Posted September 19, 2015 I like the minifigs, I like the Mecha Horse, I like the castle-tank(so far, need to see an actual photo and not the drawing). Other sets are so-so. Love the colors of the hero faction. The little knight droids are cute. Resurgence of Trans Neon Orange is a big plus for me. Quote
Aanchir Posted September 19, 2015 Posted September 19, 2015 Okay, so it appears we have a female knight too ? Who chose this product......Lego or say Cartoon Network ? Another five heroes and look one is green like Lloyd......oh, boy another odd ball theme that is either going to hit or miss right ? LEGO would have chosen the product. One of the defining traits of a "big bang" theme is that it's developed in house rather than based on an external or co-owned property. Quote
