LEGO Ninjago 2019

Those are fake suits made for a fanfiction that have been around since the Yin Yang symbol was revealed shortly before Comic Con.

I have no Idea where to put this so I'll just say it here, apparently Ninjago's to be the sponsor for this year's kids choice awards and there will be "an animated spot that will launch on March 7, Lord Garmadon will seek to steal the KCA slime cannon, with the ninja needing to stop him and return the cannon so that the KCA can go ahead. Stop motion animated content and a social video story will be part of the media package to build up to the KCA.

The full story will also be released as “custom branded programming” on Nickelodeon’s YouTube channels. In order to attempt to reach the audience through influencers, a YouTuber will also be getting involved with live action content."

While I don’t normally like to dismiss things out of hand, the idea of a “Civil War” seems very unlikely.

I mean they kinda already did it with lloyd possessed by Morrow. That's porbably inspired these things.

I do hope the rumour of the wolf being included in the smallest set is legit; I’ll be able to justify buying a few sets to get a small pack of wolves.

Ninjago usually has small sets for army building so I' think they would

That sounds hammy but good

Someone saw Captain America Civil War and thought that literally just that, but with Ninjago characters would be cool. (Jay=Captain America, Nya = Iron Man, Garmadon = Bucky)

Oh okay, that also makes sense

[Dr.Cogg]

Ice Emperor, Ninja Snake Sorceress, kitsune, Ice Dragon, this wave is sounding very interesting.

I saw something about a snake soceress the other night, but wasn’t sure if they were talking about an MOC. I hope she looks properly snake-like.

Wait a female snake villainess? Oh my, this wave is looking even better, considering my Love of General Machie. Do we have pics of these claims or are they just that rumors?

[Boogly22238]

No pictures but apparently her name is "Asphreea"

[DarthLeapyous]

I'm all for more serpentine mini figures. IMHO the best villains in Ninjago in terms of variation and coolness.

All of the specific story stuff should probably be taken with a pinch of salt. It seems a bit early to get this kind of info at this point.

I just love how at a press event they won't let the press take pictures.. just don't hold the event at that point

There was no press event, only a behind-closed-doors tour of product that LEGO always hosts to those that carry their products. Press are usually never invited.

It's such a security risk though

it makes sense. You want to sell retailers future products, but at the same time ensure that the hype for the current waves doesn't fade in shadow of the new one.

Not if they sign NDA's.

Also, as much as LEGO values secrecy, toy retailers can’t make plans for which and how many future LEGO products to order if they don’t know what those products even are. So even though things like retailer catalogs and toy fairs/expos present a risk of future products getting leaked before LEGO’s ready for the public and their competitors to know about them, on some levels it’s a necessary risk to get that info to the people who are supposed to have access to it.

Of course products have to be seen beforehand, as with anything, private demonstrations do happen, small scale for toys/games, or large scale for vehicles/machinery etc.

Whoa, you mean as in Mummies? Those dead and buried in tombs? Wow, hopefully, that means they would have a tad bit of some egyptian theme there.

Speaking of villians, the concept of two distinct villains factions is very interesting there! I am glad that this wave isn't the typical fire and ice stuffs. Personally, I find that material quite stale after Chima's fire & ice theme and waves.

[benderisgreat]

Wow, those fire snakes are weird! It seems they are mummies with fire powers?! Wtf? So now we have Ice Emperor and ice zombies and fire snake mummies. I’m curious about lore behind both these factions now. 

 

Also new Wu now has his braid printed on back of the head.

[Fenghuang0296]

Whoa, those snake mummy spirits look awesome! Those dual-moulded head pieces are just crazy, and I love them.

Also, Wu finally has a braid! Stike that, he finally has printing on the back of his head at all. Took long enough!

Can’t wait to see the ice zombies.

[JJ Tong (zfogshooterz)]

I just saw the pics, damn, they're awesome. Literally fell in love with the prints and concept of the pyro snakes! And really happy too that there's some egyptian design in 'em! I'm definitely will want to pick them up.

It's pretty cool that Wu's head finally has that braid. And definitely will want to see the Ice Zombies too!
