DraikNova Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 The heck is going on in that planet. First the jester goes crazy and summons lava demons and now the plants and the fungus and attacking the kingdom.... Just move to another planet already. Moving several miles of farmland is difficult no matter how advanced your technology is. Personally, I'm wondering whether the swamp monsters are also going to be the result of the book of monsters. Hopefully, Jestro won't be abandoned next year, but I don't have high hopes. Quote
Ardelon Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 (edited) The Volcano base looks good from a Castle standpoint. Too expensive for me anyway. The other sets, though impressive in their own ways, are just about the sum of their parts. Its nice to see the black scurrier and more books. Am intersted in the Ultimate Flama. I assume we get so many Ash Attackers because TLG wants to milk the new helmet mold. On to 2017, and, hopefully, plant/mushroom people! Edited January 27, 2016 by Ardelon Quote
DraikNova Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 Just noticed that Aaron's crossbow uses the triangle pieces the Thunder Mace uses in dark blue. Nice. Does anyone know what it fires? Quote
rzetlin Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 My main criticism of the first wave was the lack of vehicles the Nexo Knights had. It looks like the second wave solve this issue but giving Macy, Aaron and Axl their own vehicles. Quote
DraikNova Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 I'd like to note that the top of Jestro's castle features both a new spike piece (with four sharp edges) and tr. neon orange studs with minifig bar holes in them. Quote
x105Black Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 (edited) I guess you won't like next year...... Well if it's going to be the plant characters, then I am very excited about that. I am anxiously awaiting Mushlord. Also, I don't think the spike pieces on the Lava Base are new, they look like the same ones from the Black Gate and Tower of Orthanc.

DraikNova Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 Not those. Those have been around since Exoforce. I mean the smaller ones. Quote
ChristopheQ Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 I am satisfy with the wave. My main complaint would be no hair pieces for the knights. I want to make scenery of them living their normal life... Quote
x105Black Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 (edited) Not those. Those have been around since Exoforce. I mean the smaller ones. I am pretty sure both the large and small ones were in the Black Gate. Maybe I'm mistaken, and these are actually smaller then the 2 sizes in the Black Gate. Hard to tell.

Maybe I'm mistaken, and these are actually smaller then the 2 sizes in the Black Gate. Hard to tell. They are definitely different. The chima claws (the ones featured in the Black Gate) have a very different shape: hollow, with one edge, as opposed to the four-ridged spike featured here. Quote

maginnster27 Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 No normal Lance (after the overdose in wave 1), maybe in the exclusive ? I believe that he appears in The Volcano Lair Quote
DraikNova Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 Yeah, he's in the Volcano Base. Incidentally, he uses a white version of the new spike for his lance tip there. Quote
ChristopheQ Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 (edited) I believe that he appears in The Volcano Lair Oh yes, thank you. Incidentally, he uses a white version of the new spike for his lance tip there. And 3 white with Ultimate Flama. Will use 2 of them as giant Globlin's canines. Love the mini pyramide and that pieces... The lava in the volcano is "Ice planet trans-reddish orange", right ? I believe in wave 1 it was reserved for the good guy except the eye of the Evil Mobile (bad gy having normal tran-orange), but wave 2 it's everywhere... Edited January 27, 2016 by ChristopheQ Quote
dannallcorn Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 After seeing the pics im even more excited for the summer. I love Axl's Tower its like a rolling batalion Quote
Dr.Cogg Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 So far the only sets I like, are Magmar's siege engine, Jestro's castle and Burnzie ( I don't really care for Axel's vehicle), also the way Jestro's castles set up, it looks like he's going to fall into the lava pit and I kind of wish his throne was turn upside down and turned into a black skull, that would look awesome.

8BrickMario Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 I like Jestro's castle and Ultimate Flama. Really glad they decided to make the orange version, too. General Magmar's Siege Engine of Doom (love that name!) is intriguing, but I want to see what it does first. Quote
DraikNova Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 I finished my dragon project. Have a teaser . Quote
NotMegalodon Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 (edited) I like Jestro's castle and Ultimate Flama. Really glad they decided to make the orange version, too. General Magmar's Siege Engine of Doom (love that name!) is intriguing, but I want to see what it does first. It's Siege Machine of Doom. Edited January 27, 2016 by NotMegalodon Quote
Kalhiki Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 *Machine of Doom It's on the box, and listed on Brickset as such, yes. Oh man... That's the best name for a set I've ever heard. "Of Doom" makes everything better. It ranks up there with "Evil Mobile". It's almost like they're trying too hard to be bad guys. I love it. Quote
The_Fiery_Rooster Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 (edited) Found a video of the volcano castle and Axl's tower carrier. So far, I'm only getting the volcano castle, but Axl's tower carrier looks convincing as well. Only problem is, if I get it, I'll have 3 axl minifigs, and I have no idea what I would do with the extra 2. The volcano castle has nice features, and really nice figures as well. I was going to get Macy's thunder mace to get macy, good thing she comes in the castle, bvecause now I don't have to. I'll have all 5 knights, a first ever for me! (to get all the figures of a team) Over all, I like the wave very much. I like the abundance of ash attackers, since they are my favorite of the lava minifigs anyways.

BrickFit26 Posted January 28, 2016 Posted January 28, 2016 After seeing the pics im even more excited for the summer. I love Axl's Tower its like a rolling batalion I like it too, but i wonder if it does anything else. Quote
Robert8 Posted January 28, 2016 Posted January 28, 2016 Found a video of the volcano castle and Axl's tower carrier. "And shoot them on the lair..... or myself" LMAO Quote
