      36

  3. 3. Chima was said to replace Ninjago, but Ninjago lasted more than it. Does this mean that LoC is somehow a flop?

    • Yes it is.
      30
    • No, it is not, I wonder why they end it.
      14
    • Half way. It was not a top seller, neither a flop. It lasted the time it had to last.
      90
    • I already said I think LoC will continue in 2016 too.

"Vehicles"... RIP Lego Castle 2016.

Well, you could say RIP Lego Ninja 2011, but, judging by your profile picture, it turned out ok. :tongue:

I think that this "Futuristic Castles" concept could turn out quite well, as long as they insert some steampunk in there.

"Vehicles"... RIP Lego Castle 2016.

I've never understood how people who followed a colorful, action-filled, imaginative toys series could be so sour.

Also, what BrickJagger said.

"Vehicles"... RIP Lego Castle 2016.

You realize "vehicles" includes such things as ships, chariots, carriages, wagons, etc? Granted, this being a "big bang" theme, it's entirely possible that they'll go for something wilder and more imaginative than in your typical LEGO Castle theme, but the mere confirmation of vehicles is hardly the end of the world. LEGO Elves managed to make its two vehicle sets feel "magical" without pushing them into the realm of science fiction.

And anyway, a lot of people seem to feel like LEGO Castle has been a bit stagnant lately. Maybe a new twist of some kind is what it needs.

You're right. :grin: I only wanted a new normal Castle theme. But I won't jump to any conclusions before I see the sets.

And thanks for reminding me to change my profile picture.

Unsure what this could mean. Trying to match BB with things. I've got Batman Beyond (VERY unlikely. Just wanted to add that.), Boulder Blasters, BB Code? (Makes sense with a lack of a few sets.), or Battle something? Or something Battles.

Or Big Bang?

Also, judging from the current list, this new theme has more regular sets for the winter wave than Ninjago does, unless the '1HY' sets are something similar to spinners or speedorz.

Battle Bugs or Battle Bots too. Who knows what this could be. The PT also might be promotional.

BB stands for Big Bang, which is a code name Lego uses for major theme launches. In the past, Big Bang themes have been Ninjago and Chima

I bet PT and HY are faction code names or abbreviations. BB is definitely Big Bang like legozebra said.

HY is "Half Year" (the names say 1HY so "first half year" is the most logical. Also see below with PT)

I also recall PT (as well as HY) being used in rumors last year as well, so don't jump the gun! :wink:

Also, I'll reiterate what I said in the Castle thread:

For those curious what is meant by "Big Bang." (Apparently) the term has been tossed around internally to describe a release of product backed by a huge media campaign similar to Ninjago's 2011 and Chima's 2013.

I do think that, if it is officially called "Big Bang," then Lego's casual Big Bang Theory fans are going to be very misled.

Do we even know if this is a licensed or unlicensed theme?

I don't think "big bang" themes are ever licensed.

Okay, so the Big Bang theme is called Nexo Knights, but it's a steampunk Castle theme.

Guess that's the answer to our question.

Set list is in the Castle 2016? (Soon to be renamed) thread.

...and for a while there it looked as though it may also be the new sci-fi theme, maybe it still is. Because TLG clearly hates Eurobricks.

It seems like a Castle/Space/Adventure theme

I wonder where it will be placed here on EB

In all 3 so we can triple our post counts without writing any more posts than usual! :tongue:

Well, once there are pictures things will be clearer.

"Robo Horse". Robots don't really belong to Historic themes, right?

I suspect this theme will belong in the Action forum

But we definitely need pictures
