    That doesn't mean absolutely anything, as the magazine has had plenty of lego like dinosaurs featured in it before that we didn't get in lego form yet, which I also believe are just from that Lego Jurassic World show. Speaking of the magazine, I really love what comes with the next issue. In the Dreamzzz magazine there was a character with just 2 regular stud shooters on the back, but here in the one from a more realistic world they just have an ACU guard with a 6 stud shooter, and a poor baby raptor which most likely is there as something to shoot at. It really doesn't have anything special included in it, but it just feels quite fun, by how absurd it is.

    Only 10 minifigures does feel quite small, but I don't mind that too much, as personally I'm more into the regular sets, and that would make me fine with skipping this set. Also I'm not a fan of important characters that a lot fans want to have, to be exclusive to a $200+ set. Previously you could have gotten them from Pick a brick, and that was just marvelous. But recently it has been very unreliable, so I don't even know if any of the parts would be available there. I know that there isn't really that much options for sets that these type of characters can apper in, but still for such an important character from the whole series like Cyrus Borg to only be in a $370 set just isn't great. Frohicky I believe everyone expected to be in the Crossroads, but it's still cool to have that confirmed. Zane feels like a great inclusion, but only if he has the complete storm suit, since you can get him like that in just one set. The Dragonian Warrior just feels weird, one of the Forbidden Five would fit a lot more(but a member of them might be one of the unknow minifigures). Now also there definitely should be Arin and Sora in this set, and with that there are 4 more minifigures to apper in this set. My main picks for that are Geo, Frak and Dorama, as well as Cole, since with Geo being in this set, I don't see them not including him. But I don't really know about that, as I feel like there should be some regular civilians in a set like this.

    I'm not a fan of there being another buildable dinosaur set, or at least it definitely isn't a regular set based on that PPP, as that means that there will be just 4 standard sets for the film. I could say that there would be at least one more set, since exclusive sets are always revealed later. But still that feels a bit small compared to Dominion for example, which had 9 sets. 76972 285 pieces $35 has to be a set with a small dinosaur(most likely a velociraptor), for the build I would expect that car that we have seen from some images, but that feels like a bit too much pieces for just a car, so I could also see there being a small side build. 76975 199 pieces $50 has an awful ppp part, even for Jurassic standards, so I could see this being a Mososaurus set, which would also include a boat That would explain that price and the small age range, as the build would mostly be one big boat piece with stuff added on it. 78976 - Has to be a big base/lab set, which would include 2 big dinos, my guess for that would be the Spino and maybe the T-rex. 76973 583 pieces $100 - this might be the titanosaurus set, for the builds I could see this maybe having a tree and a vehicle. The most important thing for the movie are the 3 biggest dinos from Land, sea and air, so what I wrote here leaves Quetzalcoatlus without a set, so I would expect for the lego store exclusive to be that, or it could be swapped with 76973, but I really don't see a $100 set to be just for the quetz.

    I'm not sure if you are talking about the new Legacy magazine, or the cards. The information on the next legacy magazine I found on a Polish site called Promoklocki, on the "gazetki" section. About the cards I know from a German youtube video, which has "Neue LEGO Ninjago TCG Serie 10 Multi-Pack mit LE 12 und LE 13" in the title.

    The next Legacy magazine includes Tournament Kai and a Wolf Mask Warrior. I've actually thought that this could be the case for the tournament ninja, especially now when the regular magazine in the latest issue has Zane with the Arc dragon from the 2025 sets. That does feel like a great thing since the regular one could give us more of the 2025 minifigures, and the Legacy magazine should have most of the tournament ninja, but sadly I don't expect there to be Nya, since she's never been in any of these for some reason(even Pixal had one). Now there might be some information for who could be in the regular magazine. As some of the new cards show the ninja with magazine style weapons that have never been seen before, and the cards are made by the same company behind the magazines, so I expect that these could be future magazine minifgures. These include: Evil Jay, s3 Zane, Kai and Arin.

    That was one of the less interesting sets from the summer wave for me personally, but this does sound quite fun, and with this there would finally be an evo mech for Jay. Also I'm not really a fan of the Dragonian village, so this would be a great way to get Rogue. The price doesn't feel good, but we don't have the images yet. So that can easly change, just like how the Arc dragon looks ok for the price, when it is less then 900 parts for 100. From the in-hand video I love Thunderfang even more, he looks so eye catching on that table, and also how he would be in the show sounds even better. He appers to be an actual character, who I would also expect to speak. Now this might have actualy sold me on the set, but I would wait to se him in the show to see if he is an actual great character there. Misfortune feels like a fun elemental power to see how it could work in the show, since there are plenty of posibilities for that. Like for example one of the ninja vehicles randomly having an malfunctioning when going near Zarkt.

    Both of these march sets are quite solid in my opinion. The arc dragon is very unique for ninjago, and that I absolutely adore about it. From the commerical I wasn't that much a fan of the design of it, but after looking at more images of I have to say that it looks great. A new recolor of that storm blade piece is nice, and I love how it has a place for a minifigure in each of the heads. I've actually was expecting there to be a set to integrate the spinner for the villains in one of the summer sets, but I didn't expect it to be here, and that is nice, since it helps to justify the price a bit more. What also justifies the price are the 8 minifigures. But Zane's ultra combiner mech is a must have for me, and 2 minifigures from that set are here, plus Drix and Wyldfyre are in a $10 set, so after that there are just 3 minifigures that I'm interested in here. So with that I won't get this, but I would say that the $100 price seems fine with the size of the dragon, the side builds and minifigures. So I would say that this is a great set, but personally it's not really for me. Also it's great to have this small side builds to combine with the dragonian village to make it feel a bit more like a village. Thunderfang overall feels like a great set, it's always great to get a dragon for the villains, and this one feels very unique. It does share a lot of the design from Jiro, but there is also plenty of unique features that this one has. It's more beast/creature like with the extra eyes and the skiny build, so that's great for an evil dragon. The minifigure selection in this looks great with the exclusive Arin. There's also Tyr, but he is just a regular dragonian, but with different horns, that I kinda expected, but still it's not too great. The price(which I'm not sure if it's going to be, since it's 75 Brickmerge , but fateful says it's 70) looks great for what you get, but I'm a bit uncertain if I'd get this or not, so I'd wait for the summer wave to help me with that. Also Fateful said that Thunderfang can use shatterspin to create a huge tornado. So I'm interested on how that could look like in the show, because if he does the same moves as the other characters that did shatterspin,then that would be quite fun.

    There are some new information on the summer sets, I found them on brickmerge, so they should be legit. 76970 - 339 pcs 7+ 76972 - 286 pcs 6+ 76973 - 582 pcs 7+ 76975 - 199 pcs 5+ 76976 - 984 pcs 8+ They don'y really give us that much information, and with Jurassic you can expect that this could be all we will know untill the official reveal(but let's still hope that this won't be the case) This also feels like how the movie waves usually look like, so for that comparison I even added the sets from the dominion wave that match these type of piece counts: 76975 - $20 Atrociraptor chase, 76972 - $35 Blue and beta dinosaur capture , 76970 - $50 Plane ambush, 76973 - $100 T-rex and atrociraptor breakout, 76976 - $140 Giganotosaurus set(it does also match with the previous 2 Jurassic world movie waves ). So with that this definitely is for Rebirth

    With only the prices it wasn't too clear as what to expect from these sets, now the piece counts help a lot with how these sets can be like. I feel like the amount of pieces for Rontu feel fine for the ninjago dragon standards, since only the source dragon had less then 10 cents per part. Egalt was 532 pieces with a small side build, and this is nearly 400 parts, so I think she would scale great with Egalt. The ninja combat vehicle has even less parts then The Combo Vehicle, But in that one 64 parts were just treads, so with some large parts this might not look too bad. Lloyd's mech jet has similar number of parts as Zane's Combiner Mech, so that makes me even more excited about this set. And also with that there could be a small build for the villains, as I would really want there to be a small mech for the Dragonians, because so far we had a small villain mech for all of the Dragon Rising waves. The diorama set has a great Price per part, but it probably would have a lot of small parts, and it might feel a bit small for the price, just like the Dragon stone shrine. That shows how PPP isn't that important to decide if a set has great value. Now the new Bounty sounds even more promising for me. this one has more parts then the movie Bounty, and that one was huge with so much details. But I'm not too sure on what details there could be inside, since this is said to be an Evil Destiny's Bounty with 2 dragon heads, which is most likely for the F5. If it was a regular bounty there could have been just some regular rooms for the ninja just like in the previous one, but with so much more included. I mean for the Forbidden Five there could still be some like beds or stuff like that, since them being evil doesn't mean that they can't still function like regular people. But I also see there being maybe a side build, which would either be a flying vehicle for the ninja just like in Misfortune's keep(but with that many parts it would be lot better that that Lloyd flyer thing). Or there might be a temple side build as the name might suggest.

    The next magazine will include Tournament Ras, but not how anyone could have ever expected him to be. He's got the head with pink stripes instead of red, and for some reason the large trans red claws on the back from the Wolf Mask Warriors. Before even with all these stuff it still would have been nice to get him for cheap, but now this just doesn't feel worth it, since you can get the full Tournament Ras in a $20 set. Also with this they could have included the Wolf Mask Warrior with the claws, and not the General who isn't even canon. But I don't find that to be that bad, since they gave us all of the climber suits, so I don't mind the magazines after that being quite weak.

    Zarkt is going to be in the march wave, then Kur and Rox would be in the summer wave. And that does make the perfect sense to introduce 2 members each for the bigger waves, and then the march wave has only 3 sets, so with that there's just one F5 member introduced.

    I really would have preferred for the summer set names to be revealed a bit later. Since this day is already very exciting because of the set images, and then the names would have made a different day better, that really is too much stuff to get excited about for just one day. Just when I thought the previous summer wave was expensive, this wave just tops that by a lot. I would only hope that the piece counts on these aren't too small for the price. But I'd say that the fact that there are that many big sets isn't bad, since there is a bigger chance for the F5 members to show up, and that is my second main goal for this year(Zane's combo mech took the nr 1 spot, since it is just too good for me to not get it) The Guardian dragon and temple diorama has to be the set that cought my eye the most. I absolutely loved the Dragon stone shrine, and dragons are my favorite type of ninjago set. This set combines both, so this set sounds amazing so far. After all this time Lloyd finally gets a jet, and not just a regular one this is said to be a transformer. I'm interested on how they could make that work at a $100 price point. Rontu was my main set prediction for the summer wave, so I absolutely adore the fact that she does get an actual set. The price might feel cheap at first, but Egalt had 532 parts with a small side build, so Rontu would have over 400 parts which would fit great with the $45 price point. The name Fire knight mech doesn't really give us much information, so that might be the set that I'm the least excited about at least for now. The ninja combat vehicle is a very generic name, so it could be a lot of things. I can see it being another type of combo vehicle, or it could be like the Land bounty, or maybe something like the Big trucks from the Agent's themes. Temple bounty doesn't sound like a name for a evil Destiny's bounty, but we did get some details on how it would look like, so it has to be that. $200 feels crazy for a non D2C ninjago set, but we don't know the piece count, so it might be similar to the previous bounty but they just made the price higher. From the name I could also see there being a temple side build, which would then explain the price. Also with that price I would hope that there are all of the F5 in this set, or at least without Drix, since you can get them quite easly. What is also interesting about these sets is that Rogue(Jay) looks to be against the F5. So I would be interested to see how he could work.

    The sets look great, Even the 4+ set is the best we had ever gotten. Zane's mech - I expected it to be just the Jay mech with some small changes, but It actually is a lot different from it which is great. An exclusive Zane is nice to get in a set like this. There's the previous Wyldfyre there, but she doesn't have the armor piece. Maybe it's not exactly how I wanted, but I guess it's at least something. I will probably get this set, unless there's a set I like from the summer wave that has Drix, then I don't think I'd get this. Lloyd's Race Car - It really doesn't seem bad at all. From the piece count I expected it to be quite small, but this looks good for the price. But the back of it is very basic, but it's a fine compromise. It's also weird that this set gets the new lloyd while the $20 dragon doesn't. Also I like the fact that it looks like a F1 car, we didn't get anything space related this year, but at least we will get this for next year. But still I don't need another lloyd car, so while the set is good it's still an easy skip for me. Kai's storm rider mech - I was thinkng about getting this before, since I do love a unique concept for this theme. But at $50 with 3 minifgures and 333 pcs it's a terrible deal, especially when the Ras and Arin jet is at the same price point. Ras and Arin's storm jet - It's fun that it can seperate into 3 vehicles, and it does look great, but I'm not sure if I'd get it. Zane's ultra Combo mech - I was uncertain about this set, but I can easly say that this set is just amazing. You don't have the rebulit the vehicles to combine them, which is a very nice surprise for me. The other problem that I had with this set were the minifigures, but with 1 more dragonian and Cole(who looks the best out of the new ninja) this feels great. And now that is the set that I want the most from the wave. But now I'm not 100% certain on that, since the summer wave sond great, but also it's going to be very expensive.

    Regarding the official reveal of sets, I've seen it being said somewhere to be on the 2nd december. That does make sense, since the 2024 sets, and 2022 sets were revealed on that day too. The other set waves were revealed on november, so with that I don't expect them to be revealed later then that day. My biggest hope for this reveal is for Wyldfyre to have a new minifigure, since she's been the exact same for 2 waves already(Sora at least had some small changes to her s1 outfit for this wave).
  16. mantax
    The next ninjago magazine will include Master Lloyd. I don't really see a reason for anyone to not get the Jay's mech battle back set, and with that I don't see anyone being interested in this magazine that is a bit more then half the price of that set. The only positive are the weapons, since they use those green energy parts from Lloyd's elemental mech.
