I mean, a Klombo is a large, dinosaur-like creature. It would probably work the same way any Ninjago dragon or similar works.

If we’re talking about location sets, something for the cauldrons could be fun. Dunno if they’d lean into the playset or display aspect more, but it would be cool if it came with the gate, the final chamber and perhaps one or two of the more recognisable platforming bits. Maybe include one of the smaller boss machines so they can recreate a version of the energy field/construction area. Having some ruined buildings as a side-build is a must as well. The bulwark could be a neat centrepiece for a Frozen Wilds inspired set, though that would depend on if a potential theme would cover elements not covered in Adventures. I’d also really like to see Aloy in her shield-weaver armour, be it in its charged form from Zero Dawn or the powerless one from Forbidden West.

Wow, this looks fantastic! The machines are incredible, and do a great job of representing the in-game designs despite being simpler in construction. I also love how you can take out certain components just like in the game. The minifigs are also great. I don’t see why Aloy needed new prints, but it’s nothing to complain about. Varl is great, and his new hairpiece is cool. The new bow mold is very cool, and I love the interchangeable parts for it and the spear. The side builds are also fun references to the game, with the tall grass for sneaking about and the campfire for saving your game and fast travel. Overall an incredible set, and it’s designed as a sort of perfect starter pack based on the game. I’ll absolutely be picking it up, especially for that price.

Went to a toy store today to get the whole set, and after spending like half an hour scanning various boxes I was told at checkout that there was a maximum of three per customer for some bloody reason, God forbid someone gets themselves a full set in one purchase. I did fortunately have a couple of people with me so I ended up being able to get 9 of 12, but still a bit annoyed. Will have to get the Dwarf Barbarian, Strahd, and Szass Tam another day. As for the figures I did get, solid impressions overall. I'd say my favourites are the Elf Bard, Dragonborn Paladin, and Tasha, but I don't think I could truthfully tell you that there's a single bad figure in the set. This is the first time in my lifetime of buying Lego that I'm completing a CMF, and that's saying something (although sets only having 12 rather than 20 minifigs compared to when I was last properly invested in CMFs probably helps).

The game looks pretty cool. Comparing to the set, the Tallneck and Watcher are a lot more intricate (and larger, in the tallneck's case) than their set counterparts, so I'd assume that any set of them would be somewhat simplified, although it'd still likely look great. Might pick the game up, and hope it heralds new sets.

Wow, I was not expecting a new figure for a repurposed Ultra Agents villain in the year of our lord 2024.

Is it bad I actually like the finished set more than the original design? Like yeah, it's smaller and less moody, but I love the brighter fantastical colours and the dragon feels so much more like a classic DnD dragon. However, still not picking it up due to the price.

Does it fit better here? I get that there may be appeal from fans of non-licensed stuff, but that can be the case for a whole host of things. It’s not like Marvel or Indiana Jones are in the Action/Adventure subforum.

Why is this thread in Historic instead of Licensed themes? I've been checking for days and only though to use the search bar today, but seems like an odd choice. Anyway, the set looks great, but unfortunately I don't spend that sort of money on Lego sets so it's a no go unless it goes on deep discount or I get it as a gift (both being rather unfeasible). On the other hand, while I don't care for all of the choices I'll probably end up getting the full set of the CMF.

To be honest I’m rather happy with the robot coming with the printed dome version of Z-Blob rather than the dreamling-style version. Looks much more accurate to the show than the weird humanoid one.

Part two is currently out on Netflix (at least in the UK). Have been enjoying it so far just like the last part. Also

Hmm. The mini figure selection is great, and the build is quite good, but I agree that there some parts that feel like it didn’t have enough care put into it. Will probably have to see a review before I say much more, but at the moment I’m unconvinced, and it’s not pushing either way on the Gardens. …. That Bionicle jumper print is class though, despite it being inaccurate for the character. If I end up getting the set I might give it to my sigfig.

In the spirit of today… In

Unfortunately I don't, as I was not making enough for how much they cost, and the aftermarket is mad. It’s a tough decision, seeing as I’ve never spent more than £200 on a single aside from my PS5 but on the other hand it looks really cool and based on the aftermarket for the others I’ll be kicking myself if I want it in the future. What’s the height of it? On the topic of tomorrrow’s set images, I wonder what the odds are of that including the markets?

The upcoming release of the Ninjago City Markets is tempting me to pick up the Gardens before that retires and shoots up in price, but it costs a week’s worth of my wages. Tough decision, though I’ll probably wait at least until the Markets are revealed.
