gamejutzu Posted February 22, 2016 Posted February 22, 2016 (edited) The Mailman's I did think of that, and Clouse's torso. But neither are really that fitting. Hopefully Nelson drinks some of Miss-Take's tea soon... Edited February 22, 2016 by gamejutzu Quote
LegendsOfNinjago Posted February 22, 2016 Author Posted February 22, 2016 It's Misake, and I don't now why everything thinks Nelson is going to be the next big thing. I mean yeah he's in a set giving him alittle credibility, but really there is no reason for us to have a "Lloyd" story line again. Quote
Dr.Cogg Posted February 22, 2016 Posted February 22, 2016 I'm sure people thought the same thing about Skylar, on a side just got my packages from K-mart, all of them are the ones I've ordered( Misfortune's Keep, Zeppelin Raid, Jay's Dragon and Tiger Widow Island) so I'm happy. P.S. What Just2Good said about K-mart is probably true and as a lot of us trust his opinion, I tried to cancel my order, but was to late, so I waited and hoped for the best, and ended up getting what I ordered.

I'm glad to hear that. I haven't ordered since early 2014, by then they screwed up about 5/6 of my orders. But maybe they've recovered. Quote

DuckBricks Posted February 23, 2016 Posted February 23, 2016 I think that little Nelson is a representation of the fans, as there is really no need for him to be there in the first place. Yeah, I feel like he's the "kid self-insert" of the line... Quote
TheOneBrick Posted February 23, 2016 Posted February 23, 2016 I'm still gonna like Nelson though. He is now the third honorary ninja of the series after Dareth and Skylor. Speaking of which, where's Dareth with his ninja hood? It'd be nice to have him come with it in a set or even a polybag. Quote
BrickJagger Posted February 23, 2016 Posted February 23, 2016 Ninjago seems to be running out of colors for its ninja....... I mean, isn't yellow the only one left? (Aside from pink ) Quote
obsidianheart Posted February 23, 2016 Posted February 23, 2016 Ninjago seems to be running out of colors for its ninja....... I mean, isn't yellow the only one left? (Aside from pink ) Thought Skylor was technically the Yellow Ninja? Or is she Orange? Quote
mediumsnowman Posted February 23, 2016 Posted February 23, 2016 I saw a bunch of the sets at Fred Meyer today. Didn't buy any though. They had all the March 1st releases except the ones I wanted, the CA:CW ones. Quote
gamejutzu Posted February 23, 2016 Posted February 23, 2016 (edited) *Mistake (Miss-tah-kay) So, as in, Mistaké then? That's what I was talking about anyways... I don't now why everything thinks Nelson is going to be the next big thing. I mean yeah he's in a set giving him a little credibility, but really there is no reason for us to have a "Lloyd" story line again. Do you think Nelson will be a kid forever? Or more importantly, do you think the original ninja will operate forever? If Ninjago is really an evergreen theme, than TLG will need to think like this. I'm not directly implying to actually have him drink the tea, but Nelson would likely want to be a ninja. So i'm just saying i'd like to see what he's like as an adult.

PenPlays Posted February 23, 2016 Posted February 23, 2016 (edited) Ninjago seems to be running out of colors for its ninja....... I mean, isn't yellow the only one left? (Aside from pink ) I can think of Lime Green, Azure (since Nya is officially Maroon) or some other light-blue, gray (although debatable with Cole and Zane, as well as some of the book/Lego Universe characters being canon or not) and orange (as Skylor is Flame yellow). Speaking of Skylor's color, I would more or less think of her as the "yellow ninja" as having a ninja that's minifig skin-colored... well... An issue here is these corresponding ninja's elements, as most are already taken due to the elemental masters. So, as in, Mistaké then? ... Or more importantly, do you think the original ninja will operate forever? Yes. I can see Lego retiring the theme if it has truly lost it's luster at some point in time. However, I do want the series to continue. Ninjago has the chance to grow up along with its watchers (a la Adventure Time) as well as reboot itself (completely) in order to appeal. Also, a time-skip isn't out of the question either. Edited February 23, 2016 by Penkid11 Quote

Also, a time-skip isn't out of the question either. I guess that may work. However, it may get tiring or some other reason, to have the same ninja for a long time. Remember, with Adventure Time, There is only one growing character. And with a show likt The Amazing World of Gumball, everyone goes to a high school, so changes would be obvious and recommended (which there are). Also, you forgot the colors gray (the ninja of shadow is not out of the question yet ), tan (next earth ninja? Sand?), very light blue (crystal?), and trans (light ninja? Time ninja?) Speaking, i'd love to see the shadow and time ninja appear on the show. I am positive i'm not the only one to feel this way. Edited February 23, 2016 by gamejutzu Quote

The Hagenman Brothers have actually stated that Ninjago is growing up with its viewers on Twitter, which is pretty interesting... Edit: Just checked Brickseek- my local Target has ALL the sets, save Cole's Dragon which I bought in Germany... Well, I know where I'm stopping by today... Edited February 23, 2016 by legozebra Quote
benderisgreat Posted February 23, 2016 Posted February 23, 2016 (edited) Just checked my local Lego store, they said every set will be available on Friday 26th. Then checked unofficial Lego store and they have every set available already, but it's on the other end of town! So might have to order them online. Edited February 23, 2016 by benderisgreat Quote
gamejutzu Posted February 24, 2016 Posted February 24, 2016 unofficial Lego store Please explain? Quote
CM4Sci Posted February 24, 2016 Posted February 24, 2016 Please explain? Assuming a hobby shop or something. Quote
gamejutzu Posted February 24, 2016 Posted February 24, 2016 Assuming a hobby shop or something. That's strange. I wonder how they got it before the official place started selling them? Quote
PenPlays Posted February 24, 2016 Posted February 24, 2016 That's strange. I wonder how they got it before the official place started selling them? Reminder that Lego clearly ships out their new product several weeks in advance. It just depends on whether or not the store acknowledges the release date that's printed on the boxes. Quote
DuckBricks Posted February 24, 2016 Posted February 24, 2016 Target comes through yet again! I am now the proud owner of Jay's Dragon and the Raid Zeppelin! They had the whole wave, but got my two smaller set favorites first. Quote
gamejutzu Posted February 24, 2016 Posted February 24, 2016 DPCI Erm, never really knew what those were. Clarification? Lego clearly ships out their new product several weeks in advance. It just depends on whether or not the store acknowledges the release date that's printed on the boxes. Eeeeh, I see... :poke: :poke: Quote
benderisgreat Posted February 24, 2016 Posted February 24, 2016 Please explain? They sell Lego, but they aren't Lego brand store, more like generic toy store. Quote
Peppermint_M Posted February 24, 2016 Posted February 24, 2016 Smaller Independent shops that sell toys have to have some sort of relationship with LEGO to be able to sell LEGO. There is no wholesale location where you can pick up a box of LEGO sets to sell. That said, in the UK (Not sure about elsewhere) there are small local shops that sell LEGO in villages and towns. They have the LEGO Logo on the building/advertising hoarding. There are official catalogues, the smaller square kind, not the ones from the LEGO store. They are usually a general store or newsagents that are family run and have been around decades. Chances are, they sold LEGO since the 60s or 70s. A lot of these places are real treasures, they have old display figures and adverts. Some of them have really old sets tucked away at original retail price. As they are in small towns and villages you can find a shop with LEGO in most unexpected places. They are lovely to find, a highlight of my childhood holidays, before LEGO brand stores and supermarkets selling toys all year, these places had LEGO to look at and spend my holiday money on. Quote
