Nice! This craft caught my eye when the first trailer dropped, as a sort of Alien Conquest like, retro saucer craft.

Many have complained we didn't seem to get many villain/henchmen craft, so here we go!

[LegoShroom]

I LOVE IT!!!!!

Here is a better picture:

More news! 

Given how Cole with hair only appears in the big temple set, I really appreciate his inclusion here! Also, now that we have seen Lloyd in the Juniors set and Cole here, it's safe to assume these are apprentice robes. Neat! 

Nice Jellyfish saucer set! Frankly, I can't think of anything that I don't like about this. The gondola is a great and original side build, plus: another civilian!

So that torso. What's it's significance. It must mean something as we've seen Lloyd (juniors set) with the exact same thing before and now here with Cole wearing it.

Training Gi, I guess.

Alright then

Really like Cole's hairpiece. Reminds me of one of my friends from back in my highschool days. Really great stuff.

Those were exactly my thoughts at first, but looking at the other fish villains, It seems only the shark ones (great white and hammerhead) will be moulded, fortunately:

The great white and hammerhead were my favourite designs and the one's i wanted not to be stuck with terrible looking armour molded to them. This news has really destroyed my hype for the fish themed villains. Hopefully we'll be lucky and get a CMF version where the great white and hammerhead are not molded to the armour.

Dude, did you even bother reading my post above...

I did, but I was hoping there'd be more to it than just apprentice robes.

I thought that 70610 might be the Jellyfish craft and it does appear to be a USD $30 set given the box size.  Also, I'm assuming this is Toys R Us' exclusive for this wave since it was not on any of the initial lists or in the catalog.  Nice selection of mini figs, good looking main build and a nice secondary build in the mini-junk.  The only pet peeve I have with it is that it uses flick fire missiles.  Given the advances in "projectile pieces" over the last 3 years and the fact that this is a major theme for Lego in 2017, there is absolutely no reason to be using outdated action features like flick fires.  Either the Gatling stud shooter or a pair of the linked single stud shooters with vehicle mounts would have presented a much better play pattern. 

This leaves the 2 larger exclusives (Garmadon Shark Mech, Zane's Tank) and the D2C (Ninjago City...?) as yet to be revealed.  Now that pictures are starting to appear, it hopefully wont be long before we see these and the rest of sets in their boxes.

Very nice set! Better still, I hope this means someone has and will release more hd pictures of the other sets. I really want to get a better look at that Loyd's Dragon set. The minifig selection is very nice and the little gondola is a nice build. The Jellyfish flyer is a great build and I like the use of the sand blue with yellow highlights. It's odd to me that it uses flick-fire missiles as I was under the impression LEGO was trying to move away from those now that we have stud shooters and spring loaded shooters that work way better and don't look as bad. Ah well.

So is Cole not black and grey anymore?  Or am I just not looking at the right minifigures?

[Borex]

That guy wearing a jellyfish must be the tuffest villain. How can you stand all those stings the whole time.

I like the builds. The gondola is nice and the ship is pretty sci-fi.

[legosamsonite]

Do we know anything about the cmf series yet?

Well, his ninja suit is black, gold, and brown.

There's an image of both Garmadons, fully suited up this time.

Catalog for summer 2017 is already out, but people say it's blocked and it is blocked on my PC to, but for some reason I can view it on my phone. So, in German catalog there is this:

The Garmadon mech looks kinda messy for me.... 

[LegoShroom]

Easy pass for me. That hammerhead head is sloppy.

Any images of Zanes tank??

I think it looks awesome! I especially love how it comes Lloyd and Garmadon with his battle outfit. Probably it might be a better purchase than the Dragon set.

Its quite scaled down, compared to what we saw on the back of the sticker album, but its not bad to me at least.

But yes, I too anticipate Zane's Tank soon if its a retailer exclusive and can't wait to see what it turns out like.

[Falconfan1414]

I like how that laser pointer appears again in this set. This is the 3rd set I think to include this so I think it might be important. Also I think you can see zanes tank right about barley in that photo

That's a good Mech for Garmadon! Sure head could have been better, but still the rest of the mech is really good. And it's the same price as Lloyd's Dragon and both sets have Lloyd and Garmadon! Still I like that Dragon a lot more and probably going to get it first.
