Lordofdragonss Posted November 18, 2015 Posted November 18, 2015 It's logical. Nexo knights are for January for Europe, we get Ninjago in April once again. So you get it other way. Quote
Vindice Posted November 18, 2015 Posted November 18, 2015 I didn't expect to stir up such controversy! I think the issue here is that as has been pointed out there will always be some that may take offence to some toys. I am not saying they are justified or unjustified but just remember the people that do tend to get offended will SHOUT about it and that's what LEGO doesn't like. And officially Jabba's palace may n have been pulled but we are all grown ups here, lets be brutally honest, that set was pulled. But more on topic, I've heard the 18th December as a possible date.

x105Black Posted November 18, 2015 Posted November 18, 2015 I've only heard January 1st. Everything is pointing towards that date. Where have you heard the 18th? Quote
Kwatchi Posted November 18, 2015 Posted November 18, 2015 (edited) December 18 or January 1 does not really make a heck of a difference to me in the end. The lead up to Christmas is busy enough that I'll have plenty to fill my (and my kids) time; and judging by the recent weather report a third of that will be shoveling snow. :) If nothing else, it gives me more time to squirrel away some more cash and work on my Nexo MOC idea.

8BrickMario Posted November 18, 2015 Posted November 18, 2015 Jabba's Palace was discontinued right on schedule. LEGO just made it seem like an early discontinuation to please the offended party. So, they did not pull it early at all. Anyway, I think it's sorta cool how these creatures are borderline demonic. While I wouldn't appreciate a controversy, I like that LEGO's pushing it with this theme. Quote
x105Black Posted November 18, 2015 Posted November 18, 2015 Also, the "demons" in this case are the bad guys. So if anyone is offended at their inclusion, I'd suspect them of being demon sympathizers. Quote

I just want to now if on the Beast Master Chariot set, the lava beast mouths move if it has a Wheel underneath or if You must do it Manually. Quote
Dannylonglegs Posted November 18, 2015 Posted November 18, 2015 Also, the "demons" in this case are the bad guys. So if anyone is offended at their inclusion, I'd suspect them of being demon sympathizers. I'm sure Satanists will boycott this theme then. But seriously, I do need to grab a few of these "lava monsters" for exactly that purpose. ~Insectoid Aristocrat Quote
DraikNova Posted November 18, 2015 Posted November 18, 2015 Fundamentalists, i.e. the one group likely to get angry for something like this anyway, are known for attacking franchises for the morals of the villain anyway...There's an obvious joke there, but I don't want anyone to take it the wrong way.

This is lego, morals of the villains don't go beyond a He-man Cartoon or The power Rangers, But sadly I must agree Quote
Peppermint_M Posted November 18, 2015 Posted November 18, 2015 'Kay, getting into iffy territory and yes it was partially my fault. So can we step away. Any pics out there from a legitimate source yet? Quote
CM4Sci Posted November 18, 2015 Posted November 18, 2015 'Kay, getting into iffy territory and yes it was partially my fault. So can we step away. Any pics out there from a legitimate source yet? Define pics and define legitimate source Quote
Amazing Bricks Posted November 18, 2015 Posted November 18, 2015 We got no official pics yet, nexo knights comes out in January with everything else. The reason we have creator, city, and technic official pictures, is because they come out on Dec. 1 Quote
8BrickMario Posted November 18, 2015 Posted November 18, 2015 Um, we have plenty of official pics from the 'Con reveal. Quote
TPLSTER21 Posted November 19, 2015 Posted November 19, 2015 Any pics out there from a legitimate source yet? Well....there are official pics of 70316 and 70317 from NYCC. After that, as CM4Sci sais, it depends on what you count as official. There was the Italian online retailer that posted pics of the sets which were deemed unacceptable for disclosure by Eurobricks. However, Brickset (who are extremely picky about leaked images) posted the existence of the pictures on the site and invited it's readers to check it out. There is also another site that does price comparisons for various sets that has images and these are not watermarked. I don't want to cause any trouble by mentioning names, but as far as I know non-watermarked images of all sets are out there. Up to you mods if you want to post or allow links to them. Given the UK release date of January 1st, we should have official picks on Lego's website in a month or so. Earlier than that if any other retailers like TRU release the sets early. Quote

I don't want to cause any trouble by mentioning names, but as far as I know non-watermarked images of all sets are out there. These images are thumbnails from LEGO's own cache, they were linked here and then LEGO deleted them from the cache. So they are from a legitimate source but not supposed to be seen... Quote
Aanchir Posted November 19, 2015 Posted November 19, 2015 Amazon.com now has cover art and a description for The Book of Monsters. This is the British edition by Ladybird, which is coming out in February. The American edition by Scholastic will apparently be coming out in June. Quote
Peppermint_M Posted November 19, 2015 Posted November 19, 2015 Yeaah. I was asking about the cache ones, I have no idea how people dig those out. Last year no one though to post the Action Theme cache pics in thread, so I had to find some for the first post well after the fact. Quote

If you mean the one I thing you do, I'm pretty sure that's not the kind of official Peppermint meant, 'cause it sais "no leak no pic" when there's no pic. As far as I know all the sites with pics are Voldemort here -edit: except the 'con reveal Edited November 19, 2015 by Captain Sweatpants Quote

Vindice Posted November 20, 2015 Posted November 20, 2015 It seems like we are waiting unusually long this year for set images or am I just getting more impatient as I get older? I just want to get my hands on some Nexo sets so I can animate them. Quote
Robert8 Posted November 20, 2015 Posted November 20, 2015 Pics should be out soon I bet next week Quote

CM4Sci Posted November 20, 2015 Posted November 20, 2015 Missing King's Mech and a couple other sets, but here are all the shields so far. Quote
maginnster27 Posted November 20, 2015 Posted November 20, 2015 Missing King's Mech and a couple other sets, but here are all the shields so far. Well then, They certainly look.......................Different? With the shear amount of them I wouldn't be surprised if they were stickers,but looking at the pictures I cant make a good judgement. After counting it seems that there is 26 unique shields ,at least that we know of, so far. Quote
