LEGO Ninjago Castle, LEGO Ninjago Chima, LEGO Ninjago Bionicle, Pirates, Atlantis.. this could be the key to more original LEGO themes. They don't have to be connected to the main theme at all, just feature characters and basic aesthetics. I don't know if that's a really good idea. Those themes need to be their own thing, and not dependent on Ninjago. Hidden Side still became it's own theme, despite being quite similar to the Ninjago Ghost Wave. I don't want Ninjago to become the only action adventure theme in existence while everything else that gets released is licensed. I would much rather have them dedicate new themes to their ideas ideas of dumping all their ideas into Ninjago. Well, like I suggested, Ninjago could at least be a launching point for new themes that they'd share a multiverse with, but don't need to lean or rely on its lore. I mean, imagine if themes like Chima and Nexo Knights were first previewed with a multiverse-themed Ninjago wave. Quote

Are we even sure the new writers see the books as canon? One of the Monastery mural that appeared in Season 10 were based off Dark Island Trilogy. Quote
Dr.Cogg Posted March 23, 2020 Posted March 23, 2020 New villain on IG, this one looks cool also. Quote
Tobias_Jay Posted March 23, 2020 Posted March 23, 2020 We’ve known for a while that this wave won’t have just one villain faction, but maybe this series will just have a bunch of unrelated bad guys. We have skeletons, goblins and now this new guy. Also, unlike many, I’ve been adamant to call this wave ‘Nexo Knights 2’, but every minifigure leak is making that stance harder and harder to stand by. This latest leak looks like an unused character from the second year of Nexo Knights... Quote
Harkonen Posted March 23, 2020 Posted March 23, 2020 Are we sure the statue that leaked isn't ninjago? Quote
Robert8 Posted March 23, 2020 Posted March 23, 2020 Pfff At this point I'm not sure if the minifigures leaking are Ninjago, Hidden Side or Monkey King lol 8 minutes ago, Tobias_Jay said: We’ve known for a while that this wave won’t have just one villain faction, but maybe this series will just have a bunch of unrelated bad guys.

Could be, but, to me at least, the face fits in with the Hidden Side aesthetic, by that I mean the green elements of the face seem to match the look of the ghost minifigures. But I guess we won’t really know until we have set pictures. Quote
THELEGOBATMAN Posted March 23, 2020 Posted March 23, 2020 Yeah... minifigures are leaking and I dunno. Could be Ninjago, could be Monkie Kid, could be Hidden Side. That's really confusing. Quote
Harkonen Posted March 23, 2020 Posted March 23, 2020 None of the minifigs that leaked right now are Monkey Kid. Monkey Kid has technology and that black lightning villain doesn't fit the theme. Quote

In Nexo Knights (year 1) the villains were magical creatures but the heroes had technology Quote

That's really confusing I'm pretty sure that back villain is from Ninjago. It's not an animal that would fit in Monkey Kid, and it doesn't seem like a ghost that would fit in Hidden Side either.

THELEGOBATMAN Posted March 23, 2020 Posted March 23, 2020 It turns out no minifigures that leaked today are from Ninjago. Quote
lego_guyon02 Posted March 23, 2020 Posted March 23, 2020 A light green skeleton head just leaked Quote
THELEGOBATMAN Posted March 23, 2020 Posted March 23, 2020 Oh wow, this one looks even better than the black one. Love th colour, missing teeth and this green blood (looks like blood) around his mouth. Quote
lego_guyon02 Posted March 23, 2020 Posted March 23, 2020 Probably a bit too wishlisty instead of speculation but do you guys think LEGO might do a special 10th anniversary Ninjago Legacy wave or CMF next year? They could use that to fill in a ton of characters gaps like Lou, Julien, civilian Harumi, Cyrus Borg and the missing Elemental masters. Quote

Hey now, they have a guy wearing a green brick with a ‘10’ printed on a plate. That’s special. In all seriousness, a Ninjago CMF is possible, but it would need to have a wide appeal to the general LEGO consumer. That’s why the Ninjago Movie CMF was largely occupied by minifigures that could be used anywhere in other themes. Batman and Harry Potter are different, because they already have a huge global fanbase attached to them. Ninjago doesn’t have as much of a universal appeal to the everyman. Not saying its impossible. If they make some of the civilian characters, like Lou, Harumi, Julien, etc., who have unique civilian designs that could compliment a city or town, then it could be a win win. Even someone like Bolobo or Kataru could compliment other people’s fantasy layouts. Edited March 24, 2020 by Tobias_Jay Quote
lego_guyon02 Posted March 26, 2020 Posted March 26, 2020 New swords leaked as well, kinda like them but the troll is pretty meh Quote
THELEGOBATMAN Posted March 26, 2020 Posted March 26, 2020 That troll looks really fantastic. The sword also looks awesome. I love the usage of Hunted piece, now in brown. Quote
AMD Posted March 26, 2020 Posted March 26, 2020 Oh wow! That leaked sword reminded me of cloud's buster sword from FF7 Quote
Darth Shadowthrone Posted March 26, 2020 Posted March 26, 2020 The troll looks pretty fun, a bit more eastern-styled than I was expecting with the ponytail. Also it looks like the neck attachment armour has a slot at the back for a katana? Quote

TeriXeri Posted March 26, 2020 Posted March 26, 2020 (edited) I do actually like that some of those figures are somewhat similar in style to the Nexo Knight villains, wonder if the same people designed them. Troll reminds me of General Magmar Goblin reminds me of the Book Keeper. Skeletons look nice as well. Edited March 26, 2020 by TeriXeri Quote
