gundamz Posted June 4, 2017 Posted June 4, 2017 I heard that there would be a Ninjago D2C set. Anyone have any information on that? Will that be a modular-like building like the Temple of Airjitzu or would it be more of a vehicle like the Batmobile? Quote

Reportedly it's a Ninjago City set, but I don't think anything else is publicly known. Quote

Thanks for letting me know, must have missed the pics of the Hammerhead shark mech previously. Though what about the walking shark from the trailers, i remember someone confirmed we would get that as a retailer exclusive? Quote

The one from the trailers has not been confirmed at all. The source confirming it said that we'd be getting A shark mech as a retail exclusive that is NOT the one from the trailer. So sadly, no confirmation for it. I can't see them not making it so I'm hoping that it will arrive in wave 2. Edited June 4, 2017 by LegoShroom Quote

In February, Just2good was on a podcast and confirmed that the Shark Mech was going to be a retailer exclusive one, at the time the only Shark Mech we were aware of was the one in the trailers.In April, We saw the sticker book, up until this point we had no idea that the Hammerhead Shark Mech was even a thing.Shortly afterwards, Sir Von Lego confirmed that we would be getting the Hammerhead Shark Mech as a set. I suppose its likely that the Shark Mech that Just2good was aware of is the same as the Hammerhead Shark Mech mentioned by Sir Von Lego. Though i do hope we get the walking Shark Mech.

Exetrius Posted June 5, 2017 Posted June 5, 2017 A good look at maskless Nya, Cole, Jay and Zane: Untitled by elephantograph, on Flickr Untitled by elephantograph, on Flickr I'm still a really big fan of Jay's hair mould, I'd love to get that in a whole range of colours. Also, it just occurred to me that this may be the first time for a LEGO hairstyle to have a lock of hair in the center of the forehead, coming down almost between the eyes, which is a key feature of tons of male hairstyles found in anime.

SpiderJazz Posted June 5, 2017 Posted June 5, 2017 Love that hairpiece of Jay, I would like to have it in black. Quote

Anime usually tries to emphasize that there's a single lock in the middle, it looks like there's at least 3 for Jay. If we're talking about anime hair, i'd say that Kai in general is the all-time winner. I feel like that parallel with Jay is coincidental. If there was an attempt to mimic that kind of hairstyle, or an applicable hairstyle to anime in this wave, i'd say Lloyd or Kai come closer. Edited June 5, 2017 by gamejutzu Quote
Digger of Bricks Posted June 6, 2017 Posted June 6, 2017 That hairpiece of Zane's on the other hand..... Quote

zoth33 Posted June 6, 2017 Posted June 6, 2017 Nya and Jay's hairpieces look great and Zane's looks horrible. I hope we get official pics soon. I like what I've seen so far. Quote
tafkatb Posted June 6, 2017 Posted June 6, 2017 I can't really judge Zane's from that picture since it seems to be on backwards, but I do really like Jay's hairpiece. Looks like my hair when I've gone way too long without a haircut. Quote
Boogly22238 Posted June 6, 2017 Posted June 6, 2017 Not digging Zane's hairpiece.. but it just looks reversed. The other hairpieces look great, especially Jay's. Is that a skeleton in the top right? Quote

BubbaFit45531 Posted June 6, 2017 Posted June 6, 2017 When I see the Ninjago Movie faces and hair, I suspect the designer was under the influence of some drug or alcohol. They are not something I would want to buy. Quote

Borex Posted June 6, 2017 Posted June 6, 2017 I want to see Zane's hair the correct way on him. I think i want to use that hairpiece. Quote
Exetrius Posted June 6, 2017 Posted June 6, 2017 Next magazine inclusion will be Cole with some gear, not too special: 17 hours ago, gamejutzu said: Anime usually tries to emphasize that there's a single lock in the middle, it looks like there's at least 3 for Jay.

If there was an attempt to mimic that kind of hairstyle, or an applicable hairstyle to anime in this wave, i'd say Lloyd or Kai come closer. They obviously aimed at the over-the-top anime hair look for Kai, even though I can't think of a character that would match up directly with that kind of hair. However, in my eyes, coincidental or not, Jay's hair has similarities to that of generic, mainstream male character hairstyles. 14 hours ago, Boogly22238 said: Not digging Zane's hairpiece.. but it just looks reversed.

They are not something I would want to buy. What makes you say that? Kai has crazy hair (inspired by crazy hair from anime), Zane has an overly excited and dead-serious expression and unnaturally 'static' hairstyle (all befitting the explicit, unambiguous nature of a robot's behaviour and appearance), Cole looks relaxed, a little dense and down to earth (you know... ninja of earth, see what I did there?), his hair looks like a mix of a hippie, hipster and rock star. Oh, and the fish villains have funny hats. But that's all! A creative person doesn't need to take drugs for those things either. Quote
2maxwell Posted June 6, 2017 Posted June 6, 2017 I personally felt that the previous ninjago minifigs were too try-hard. They were trying to be cool while these are more relaxed and silly. Kai's might be a bit over the top, but I prefer these versions of the characters by a mile. Quote
horizon Posted June 6, 2017 Posted June 6, 2017 No way. These movie ones are silly to the max. Only Lord Garmadon looks cool. Quote
Hoth Rebel Posted June 6, 2017 Posted June 6, 2017 I also think they look better than the 'originals' but I don't watch the show so I don't really care either. Quote
Agent Kallus Posted June 6, 2017 Posted June 6, 2017 (edited) I really like jays new hair mold cause it looks like mine. Edited June 6, 2017 by AgentKallus of Hydra Quote
