I would also like to see Legend beasts like sets - Knights + beasts they represent. Bonus point if they can combine to another bigger set and make a mecha and have a lot of trans parts!

That'd be pretty great! I liked the Legend Beasts from Chima, and was kinda disappointed to see that as only a one-off series.

Seconding Scurrier packs. I'd also like to have seen the Knights and jet-horses released as small boxed sets, rather than as components of larger ones, but that's all water under the bridge now, and suppose.

Thirding (or whatever!) Scurrier packs. A Scurrier/Squirebot-ish (or villager-bots) Battlepack type set could work, too. Or Scurrier & whatever new mini monsters (water, wood, etc) happen later. If the jet-horses ever get an updated build, maybe that could happen (tho probably more likely it'd be more Legend-Beast-style, each Knight having their own robo-mount). At least it shouldn't be too difficult to BL the jet-horses, since there are so many parts in common (and even the newer parts/colors will likely become a bit more common as their use expands across more sets).

I'm down for more structures, and of course more monsters! The vehicles have mostly been lacking for me in this first batch... some nice monster builds, and neat elements abound, but many of the vehicles leave me disappointed.

My wishes :

- More focus on monsters

- not yet another 5 knight vehicle sets knights got enough transportationnow

- if they go underwater, i dont hope 5 boat/submarine sets. 1 underwater base would be maximum imo if they go that far.

- civilian sets (village/house or minfigs like the reporters/camera bots)

- the royal transport hover train from the show

- Ultimate king/queen/ava or new ultimate monster sets instead of redone knights

- water monster/plant monster 4-packs with different faces/prints/torso and legs.

Yes, but preferably they'd use thematically appropriate dinosaurs. A raptor, an accurate one, would make sense for Clay, since they're basically big ground eagles, while a Tyrannosaurus, being big and bulky, makes sense for Macy. Robin could probably use an emu, an ankylosaur could work for Axl, and maybe a ceratosaur for Aaron?

I think an ankylosaur would be better for Macy, given its knobby club-like tail! :grin: Triceratops for Axl, for sure... he's got a horned helmet and is a big bruiser, Triceratops has horns & is a big bruiser (plus, the Jurassic World sets didn't reuse the awesome-looking Triceratops mold from the previous Dino theme, so... it's overdue!)

Brilliant idea about dinosaurs! Alough I'd give Axl a triceratops, Clay a tyrannosaurus, Macy would get an ankylosaur, since ankylosaurs probably used their tails like maces, Aaron would ride a raptor, and Lance a pachycephalosaurid from which he could joust. Just spitballin'here.

Good points, although I really think the raptor would fit Clay best (due to his crest being a hawk, which a raptor is more like than a Tyrannosaurus would be). The Tyrannosaurus could be featured in an exclusive as a mount of the queen, perhaps? Maybe a Therizinosaur for Aaron? With huge bows mounted next to its claws?

EDIT: Actually, while Lance wouldn't be able to ride it nor would it be a dinosaur, an azhdarchid's head is already more or less an oversized lance. Could work quite well.

I would think the T-Rex would be Robin's ride, because I heard a chicken is a descendant of the T-Rex.

First off, the branching nature of evolution means that it'd be impossible to pinpoint a non-avian dinosaur ancestor of birds relatively precisely. Second of all, raptors are more closely related, to the point that birds are part of the raptor group. Personally, I'd like Robin to just get a stylized "tin can" style chicken mech.

On a side note, birds as a group are an arbitrary, not officially defined group, so any group ranging from "modern birds" and "all animals more closely related to modern birds than to crocodiles" (pterosaurs + dinosaurs) can be considered "birds".

You know your science. I like you.

Heh, thanks.

Anyway, I'm also hoping we get some of the farm variant squirebots at some point. Tying this into the dinosaur concept, scythes are associated with farming, so...Therizinosaurus squirebot mecha?

Oh nice! Farm squirebots would be cool but I think dinosaurs would ruin nexo knights but that dinosaur looks nice

Yeah, someone mentioned dino riders nexo knights, so I just decided to share my own thoughts on what they should do if they went that direction. Personally, I hope that if they make animal-themed builds, they focus more on medieval mythical creatures. Dragons, griffins, maybe manticores, bestiary sort of stuff.

Animals would be alright but dinosaurs would ruin it, maybe tech/cyber animals that'd be good!

How would dinosaurs ruin it? Too much of a stretch for the imagination?

I want Nexo Knights to have dinosaurs.
