Exetrius Posted May 13, 2016 Posted May 13, 2016 (edited) -snip- -snip- -snip- You three make some good points, well-phrased, and I agree with all of them. I was about to say that it would be hard to say goodbye to our most favorite group of ninja, now that they are more iconic than ever. But at the same time, I like to imagine the possibilities of a reboot. New weapons, powers, or setting? Next generation (one of the ninja being sensei) or a completely parallel story altogether? Four young samurai fighting against evil ninja? Just imagine... The problem with a reboot, however, is: how to keep the oldest viewers interested? They've grown along with their heros, who suddenly get replaced; I'd be angry about that! So, about that poster: Wow! "It is time to close the circle" Such an interesting phrase! A circle forms when the beginning of a line meets the end. But what is the beginning here? Is it the first disturbance of 'The Balance', that led to the whole chain of events after it? Is it that Wu choose his students, who will now become the masters and take their own apprentices? Is Cole the last one to fulfill his duty, maybe? Man, this makes me so curious!!! Last but not least: I wonder why Wu's symbol and Yang's symbol are the same. And if we will get the lantern in that beautiful trans orange... Edited May 13, 2016 by Exetrius Quote
Falconfan1414 Posted May 13, 2016 Posted May 13, 2016 We do get the lantern in the ultra sonic raider 2.0 Quote
Exetrius Posted May 13, 2016 Posted May 13, 2016 We do get the lantern in the ultra sonic raider 2.0 Yes I know, it's in trans neon yellow, but I said trans orange. C'mon it's not that hard to read until the full stop, is it? Quote
LegendsOfNinjago Posted May 13, 2016 Author Posted May 13, 2016 Someone on tumblr wondered if since there was a Sensei Yang there might be a Sensei Ying. Possible FSM? Quote

gamejutzu Posted May 13, 2016 Posted May 13, 2016 Someone on tumblr wondered if since there was a Sensei Yang there might be a Sensei Ying. Possible FSM? *Yin I was thinking that closing the circle, meant joining the Dark Island (yin) and Ninjago (Yang). Would be interesting. Quote
NinjaJayNuva Posted May 13, 2016 Posted May 13, 2016 Well... Hageman Brothers have answered my question, they said, this is not the end, this is only the beginning. Quote
Exetrius Posted May 13, 2016 Posted May 13, 2016 Sorry I am color blind and can't tell the difference Oh, sorry I'm taking back my words then! Well... Hageman Brothers have answered my question, they said, this is not the end, this is only the beginning. I was expecting that, since any point on a circle can be both beginning and end, but I'm glad it's confirmed. Quote
Amazing Bricks Posted May 13, 2016 Posted May 13, 2016 Wow! That poster is amazing and that lantern is just perfect. Love how Cole is getting the main role in this season. Quote
CM4Sci Posted May 13, 2016 Posted May 13, 2016 Question - is that black 1x1 round tile with a pin on it on the lantern real? Does it come in any sets? Quote
LegendsOfNinjago Posted May 13, 2016 Author Posted May 13, 2016 Question - is that black 1x1 round tile with a pin on it on the lantern real? Does it come in any sets? I don't believe so... Quote
obsidianheart Posted May 13, 2016 Posted May 13, 2016 Question - is that black 1x1 round tile with a pin on it on the lantern real? Does it come in any sets? Eh, we've got it in Gold and Clear, I'm sure we'll get it in Black eventually. Quote
Ninja of Fire Posted May 14, 2016 Posted May 14, 2016 So according to the poster, this may be Lego's second chance to release Borg Tower. Quote
gamejutzu Posted May 14, 2016 Posted May 14, 2016 (edited) So according to the poster, this may be Lego's second chance to release Borg Tower. Borg Tower was never in any set list. However, it is a very popular pick for the next D2C. Edited May 14, 2016 by gamejutzu Quote
LegendsOfNinjago Posted May 14, 2016 Author Posted May 14, 2016 So according to the poster, this may be Lego's second chance to release Borg Tower. Yass! I'm actually watching Season 3 three right now. Quote
PenPlays Posted May 14, 2016 Posted May 14, 2016 Question - is that black 1x1 round tile with a pin on it on the lantern real? Does it come in any sets? The part exists, but it doesn't come in black. Quote

azog Posted May 14, 2016 Posted May 14, 2016 Well... Hageman Brothers have answered my question, they said, this is not the end, this is only the beginning. So ninjago isn't over? Interesting, can this be replacing the final battle with the stone army season...not the real final battle but it says it is Quote
makoy Posted May 15, 2016 Posted May 15, 2016 Quoting directly from TLG's 2015 annual report: Among the top selling lines in 2015 were core themes like LEGO® City, LEGO® Star Wars™, LEGO NINJAGO, LEGO Friends and LEGO® DUPLO®. It would be insane for TLG to stop Ninjago if it is one of the top selling themes last year. If not mistaken the order they arranged the themes in that sentence is also the order of popularity. The show can be rebooted, re-imagined or even remade but the theme will stay as long as it is a bestseller. Long live Ninjago! Quote
HoganPrime Posted May 15, 2016 Posted May 15, 2016 Finally got back onto EB, had some password trouble the last few days but wow a lot of stuff happened: Blurred battlegrounds photo Front box photo and set photo of xcave Poster of the next season for the show. Exciting times Quote

Peppermint_M Posted May 15, 2016 Posted May 15, 2016 As Ninjago is core, it wouldn't be unbelievable to make a new team or story. Power Rangers has been going for decades on a similar principal of one franchise many themes and teams. Quote

Power Rangers has been going for decades on a similar principal of one franchise many themes and teams. Completely agree with you. I think, that TLG's inspiration for Ninjago came directly from Power Rangers (a team of guys with suits of diffirent colours, they also have dragons/mech and fight against various evil-forces, still in the real life they are common people with common problems and so on) Edited May 15, 2016 by Ookami Quote
Amazing Bricks Posted May 16, 2016 Posted May 16, 2016 New ninjago products page picture looks pretty cool: Quote
