Pulp Detective Posted September 18, 2015 Posted September 18, 2015 Hey Sci do the heroes (expect from their helmets) also have optional hair like in Ninjago??And thanks for all the info. Quote
Sorrelon Posted September 18, 2015 Posted September 18, 2015 Man, we're not getting any normal castle stuff. I get you don't like it, lol. Yeah that's the shape of the shield. By the way, have the mods discussed whether or not posting drawings of things is ok? Are there any new parts that could be used or a Space build? I mean, not in a Space/Castle hybrid like Nexo Knights, but in a pure Space build. Something like a jetpack, a new laser rifle or perhaps a new radar part? Also how do those magic books look? Are they printed, or do they have stickers on them? Quote

Magic book is the same in both sets and a key factor in the storyline - looks like stickers Quote
8BrickMario Posted September 18, 2015 Posted September 18, 2015 I'm assuming it's the same terrible book piece they've had for ages? I hate how large it is and difficult it is for a minifigure to hold. However, if it's a magical summoning book being used for Jestro, it sounds okay. Place your story bets! My guess is that Jestro was formerly the King's jester, and this is his revenge for being kicked out. Quote
CM4Sci Posted September 18, 2015 Posted September 18, 2015 Sounds hilarious - I'll have to translate the bottom bits but I think it's mostly about his successful this theme is gonna be and all that boring junk. Book is Harry Potter book. Quote

Ice planet remake in 2017 confirmed! By the way, is Jestro a human, a monster or a robot? Quote
x105Black Posted September 18, 2015 Posted September 18, 2015 By the way, is Jestro a human, a monster or a robot? My understanding is that he's a skeleton with lipstick. Quote
8BrickMario Posted September 18, 2015 Posted September 18, 2015 I think he's human... His banner is a skull because he's evil! Quote
gedren_y Posted September 18, 2015 Posted September 18, 2015 CM4Sci, could the Jestro head you saw have been this as a placeholder? You posted 'skeleton with lipstick' and I immediately thought of Krazi from the first wave of Ninjago (which had a pretty useful fortress if you left off the stickers and the flick fires). Quote
TPLSTER21 Posted September 18, 2015 Posted September 18, 2015 Something to discuss overnight Mini spring shooters will exist. Hi CM4Sci. Thanks for the descriptions. Not sure if this has been asked/answered yet but which characters and sets have the shooters? Quote
The Steward Posted September 18, 2015 Posted September 18, 2015 I hope the Nexo Knights will be better then Chima. Quote
Zergos Posted September 19, 2015 Posted September 19, 2015 I just.... can't wait to see pics Same here Quote
thetang22 Posted September 19, 2015 Posted September 19, 2015 At this point, the minifigs and accessories are the only things that I have any real interest in. And that could very well change once I see them. Quote
x105Black Posted September 19, 2015 Posted September 19, 2015 (edited) At this point, the minifigs and accessories are the only things that I have any real interest in. And that could very well change once I see them. I'm feeling the same way. Is the evil guy in the Beast Master Chariot set wearing one of these in Black and Dark Red? 8BrickMario brought up the question earlier, but I never saw clarification. I think it would be a great piece, maybe one of the most useful for my purposes. Edited September 19, 2015 by x105Black Quote
Shroffy123 Posted September 19, 2015 Posted September 19, 2015 Those new armor pieces are fantastic in my opinion Quote
Itaria No Shintaku Posted September 19, 2015 Posted September 19, 2015 No beast master has no armor. Quote
Risgrynsgrot Posted September 19, 2015 Posted September 19, 2015 (edited) Boom! **Bam** Edited September 19, 2015 by Bob De Quatre Removed link to confidential picture Quote
Arkanta974 Posted September 19, 2015 Posted September 19, 2015 Woah awsome ! Love the big guy ! Quote
blarghiflargh Posted September 19, 2015 Posted September 19, 2015 Saw the pic elsewhere. Really really like it. Not for everyone but it appeals to me a great deal. Much more than Ninjago(which I like alright). I think I'm in for that castle and maybe the robo horse(which I haven't seen but sounds intriguing). Also it's more Visionaries: Knights of the Magical Light(google it) than Masters of the Universe IMO. The villain Jestro looks like a human/minifig version of Quackerjack from Darkwing Duck. Quote
nemorino Posted September 19, 2015 Posted September 19, 2015 (edited) This theme is unfortunately not for me. But could have some good accessories (helmets, armors) so looking forward to it. The sad thing is that we have to wait at least another two years for a proper historic theme. I am starting to lose the interest in Lego, which started with Kingdoms and LOTR/Hobbit.

Pulp Detective Posted September 19, 2015 Posted September 19, 2015 From what I've seen from the illustrations that Sci gave us,it seems the vechicles will be as wacky as the ones from chima and ninjago.And even thought that disappoints me the mixture of castle and sci fi elements really makes me excited for this theme.I mean knights,magic books,evil jesters and new sword molds!!! What's not to like?? Quote
ZCerberus Posted September 19, 2015 Posted September 19, 2015 Okay guys- some announcements. 1. The general rule on confidential and prelim images is that we do not host them here. 2. We also may remove other links, illustrations and descriptions related to the images in our discretion if we have a compelling reason to do so. 3. Eurobrick's has a good relationship with LEGO. This relationship gives us some great perks like getting sets for review and contest opportunities. We also want LEGO to succeed as a business so we can continue our hobby. This means at times we have to be more heavy handed when it comes to certain projects. This is one area. As a result, do not post links to leaked images or sketches as they will be removed and if we feel the post was made with knowledge of this announcement, discipline may be warranted. Thank you. Quote
Vorkosigan Posted September 19, 2015 Posted September 19, 2015 (edited) So there is at least one prelim image out there now that I've seen. It is an official illustration, so there may be some artistic liberties. But it looks like there will be new visors (3 different ones that I can see) and they will be in a gray or metallic and could work in a historic setting. Helmets themselves are mostly colorful. Weapons, shields, and armor look pretty sci-fi, but may fit in some fantasy builds. 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.
