LEGO Nexo Knights 2017 Discussion

[Exetrius]

Next magazine includes a mini model of Lance's Twin Jouster, which looks pretty great!

Oh how I miss 1988, when this set was only $6.00:



Anyways, I don't mind the purple, but I don't much like how it has been used in these Nexo Knights sets.  Everything else I agree with.

Aww... I wish they'd do a new Robin Hood theme

Official Images are out which you can find here

I'll be compiling the images in the meantime.

It won't let me upload the images as the file size is too large, I'm going to try change that, unless some beats me to it.

I'm glad that we finally have official pictures, but I was expecting more comprehensive images that illustrate the features and such. Hopefully those are coming soon.

[BrickFit26]

I'm late but those Gargoyle wings are so awesome! 

[x105Black]

Stone Clay looks cool, from what I can see.  Not the visor, of course, but the print.

Macy's dragon has an orange clip for the bot's jetpack, does this mean it can also attach to a battlesuit? 

[Robert8]

Hey look at this guy. The villain

Have we seen pics of this guy before? The helmet and the cape are amazing! My favorite stone villain so far!

We were sorta assuming as much from the name "Drop Bot Dragon."

[JasonEffex]

I really like how most of these sets look, although I might try to modify the Stone Colossus' legs when I get it. The only set I really don't like from this wave it Axl's vehicle, it's just too gappy around the back. It's a shame that the two sets from this year that I like the least are the only two that come with the amazing Rogul minifig.

Yup, as seen in the show, the whole dragon can attach to a battle suit.

Yes, we have seen it.  I love the helmet design, but would really love to see it with no printing.  It also looks like this guy might be in a pearl grey color rather than sand blue, which would be very cool to see.

So, still no news on summer exclusive sets? Any ideas when it might be revealed?

[Roebuck]

I see the first pig are showing up in a nexo knights set! Hopefully something like mill village raid 7189 will be a future set, but I am sceptic

The little bot jetpack thingy has a male orange clip in order to attach to the Bot Drop Dragon's female orange clip (hence the name "Bot-Drop." It's a Squirebot dropship). Removing the jetpack from the Dragon itself allows the Dragon to attach to the Battle Suits as the Battle Suits also have a male orange clip.

 I almost got hyped over the fact that the Knighton castle doors are in brown.. think that says enough about how far we are from regular Castle... 

Anyway, I'm interested to see how Aaron's giant crossbow folds together, can be another plus for that set.

The villain has a very similar look to the alien Predator. So cool.

[NotMegalodon]

Aaron's set is one of the best this summer wave. The villain certainly is. The parts are cool too.

Well I like that it comes with the Stone Stomper.  That's one of the best looking villains of this year's sets because it's not completely overdone and ridiculous like some others.

See, I'm not so fond of the Stone Stompers because they look weirdly naked to me without any sort of accent colors or armor. And while I guess that makes sense, because they're reanimated statues, it doesn't make them look particularly intimidating.

Really what excites me the most about that set isn't any of the figures, but rather Lord Krakenskull's steed. It's really cute, in a monstrous sort of way, with its big front paws and comical underbite.

I feel exactly the same way - except that there are some really exciting figs like Stone Clay and Krakenskull...

So my current total is roughly 30 Nexo Knights polybags - this is over 150 shields... yet i'm still missing one shield.

Is it just me, or is anyone else having difficulty locating their missing shields?

I believe we saw him on display riding the included badguy vehicle.

His name is 'Lord Krakenskull' and he's arguably the only thing that interests me in this wave.

Shall probably Bricklink him.

Same. I'm still missing the one shield I'm really looking for because I want to use it in a MOC (Power Plant). Depending on where you live, trading might be an option. This thread here was made for it, but there's been next to no activity.
