LEGO Ninjago 2021

[bricksnator]

With any luck we'll get some legitimate Jan 2022 set name leaks within the next 2-3 weeks with the way other theme leaks are trickling out.

[Meaf]

I thought I saw something about a leaked set list a while ago, but I didn't end up checking it out. Was that one fake?

No, but some of them were placeholder names like Kai Vehicle and Lloyd's car.

[Meaf]

Oh, that makes sense. Hopefully the wave ends up being interesting.

I dont mean to sound like that person, but unpopular opinion, I actually like the mechs and the cars and all the weird vehicles, however I dont know what promo bricks means. Do they mean we won't like it because its not a feudal Japan type setting (which most people here want)? Or is there no buildings? As much as I like vehicles I am partial to a nice temple or monastery. I do wonder what the theming will be. Really, we need to know how much promo bricks knows about the community. They could mean anything from the apparent hatred of vehicles to us not wanting a space theme. Either way, we are gonna find out later today. Did the publish a time or is it just 'later'?

Edit: The bricks'n'bits podcast has said that next knights was originally a tech pirates theme, so maybe that could be it? We know models often cross over from themes and concepts such as the 13th power miners vehicle that became the Atlantis hydro tank mech, the chain cycle ambush from possession was going to be a Chima set, and so on. Maybe we can see some intresting concepts? I'd love a rolling Pirate ship, mortal engines style, and the land bounty didn't really do it for me.

Promobricks published their article. What an awful sounding wave 

[Modal]

So does this mean the Ninjago modular rumor isn’t true? That’s all I care about 

[Fenghuang0296]

Okay, saw the list, and . . huh. Are the ‘EVO’ sets going to be the new Legacy stuff? Because . . call me crazy, but as a PR/Sentai fan I’ve been dreaming about having some kind of Ninjago Megazord for the last decade. And with the ‘Ultra Combo Ninja Mech’, the name sounds . . meh but it sounds like my dreams might finally be coming true! Then, it’s equally noteworthy that so many of the vehicle sets have ‘EVO’ in their name rather than ‘Legacy’. This is probably much too optimistic, but what if the ‘EVO’ means that they cause the big Mech to evolve . . by combining with it?

I’m probably going to be disappointed. But I really can’t wait for pictures and descriptions now.

It's a temple that connects to the base set.

They are downscaled versions of past vehicles similar to 4+ according to the article.

Base set as in Ninjago City?

Sadly yes *rolls eyes*

[a guy from somewhere]

Ok. This is quite the post, so buckle up people. Good luck getting to the end of it. 
 

From what I can gather the pyro vipers are back, which on the bright side will give a bit of weight to season 11s story, however this does seem a bit far fetched. So the snakes are back with upgraded tech, and for the ninjas the mech sounds the most interesting. I had an idea that maybe all of these sets can connect to the mech “gundam style”, and the ninja combiner mech is the base. Maybe the mech set can also split off into smaller vehicles, like those weird 11- 1 knock off brands? 
 

Extremely disappointed with the fact that there’s not gonna be new modular, but the temple does sound very good. I hope it will hold up to other magnificent builds such as the temple of airjitzu and the fire temple. 

Lloyds mech: Sounds fine as a juniors set, but I’m most scared about how they are downscaling the sets like Star Wars. Promobricks refers to 4+ a little too often in the article (I will too) which worries me immensely, however we must remember this is just one news site covering it. 
 

The thunder dragon: Sounds fine, a cheap and possibly good introductory set. The price and piece count are a little scary, I’m not liking the price to part ratio. But if it’s like a 4+ set, there’s probably going to be some larger pets involved.

Zanes power up mech: Interesting, I’m looking forward to a small affordable mech set, and as said, I have a feeling these sets are gonna all link up onto the team mech, like I can see the thunder dragon wings becoming a giant Jetpack, with the dragon head going over the mech head, and Zanes mech clipping into the back for extra stability. 
 

Kais fire dragon: Sounds ok, although it’s apparently the same size and only 60 more parts as the thunder dragon, and 10 euros more, and this wave seems to be worryingly bad on the PTP scale. The only answer is, you guessed it, 4+ PARTS! 
 

Lloyds car: Apparently a smaller version of the night crawler, which my brother happens to own, I’m pretty excited for it. If it retains the same feature as the last one, it will be interesting to see how the 6 stud shooters are integrated. Figures sound a little displeasing and no side builds.   
 

Ninja training centre: Now due to the translated wording I can’t tell if this is a modular but it doesn’t seem like it. To me it sounds like a cross between the ninjago movie maker and the skeleton bowling arena from way back in the pilots. Apparently it will come with a small mech, which most sets either come with or they come with a drone. I’m liking the sounds of these side builds for the snake army I have to say, however I always seem to think of a green and white colour scheme which I know is wrong. 

The ultra combo mech: Holy crap, this DOES sound like a fever dream. 2 smaller snake mechs, which sound fine, and the article says that the 4 main ninja merged their original companions? I get the feeling they are talking about the 4 pilot dragons, protectors of the golden weapons, however I’m pretty sure the earth dragon did not have drills for hands, as the mech does. I get the impression that this mech will probably be like the ultra dragon, but you know, as a mech? I also said before that I think all these sets can combine onto the mech, or the mech splits apart into smaller models, hence the name combiner mech. Think of it looking like the Firestone mech, only on steroids. 

Lloyds dragon: possibly my favourite set so far, a blue and green dragon, with (GASP) Nya? She’s back already? Kinda disappointed to be honest, as much as I like her I wish she could have stayed dead for a bit longer, at least a season, but no, she’s back. And with a new dragon with Lloyd apparently. The price to part seems on par with usual Ninjago standards, so maybe it’s just the January sets, which would be EVO, are like a legacy line of sorts and then the bigger sets like the temple and dragon are March releases? 
 

Speaking of which, the temple!

This sounds freaking amazing! Not a modular unfortunately, but it seems to be a structure much like the light house siege, standing on a foundation of rock and having a small bridge go off it. The roofs in dark green I can approve of, however I’m not sure on the brown walls. Apparently a small fire mech is included, which I’d have to guess is stored in a workshop type area in the rock foundation.  
 

Spinjitzu training: Some more gimmicks, and they seem to be a cross between the spinjitzu masters stuff and the original spinners. Nothing too interesting. 
 

Well. This is an interesting wave to say the least. My best guess is that the legacy line is at an end now, so they are doing some more recent small sets. The pyro vipers seem to be back, but they sound more like Chars species than the original hypnobry. All I’m going to say is the day the pictures drop, this forums gonna be one hell of a storm. 

Edit: there’s a hell of a lot more I want to talk about, Nyas return, the snakes (again), how this will affect the show, the figs we’ve already had leaked, who’s season this actually is, but I’ve already written enough for now. I’m gonna sit back and let the news digest, along with the helpless amount of videos on YouTube saying how bad these are.

Thanks for reading guys!

I never once thought a $120 set would be a Ninjago City modular, especially after the Gardens just came out. Makes no sense.

It sounds like 2021 is the new template going forward. A small event series/movie in the spring, and something more substantial in the summer.

[PsychoBuilder]

Is it confirmed that there is no modular? I don’t pay a ton of attention to Ninjago (although every single wave looks cool af to me) but did any leaker say that?

Yep. The two ‘base’ and ‘monastery’ sets are modular in that they’re comprised of segments that can be interchanged and swapped around. Kinda like waaaaay back in 2011 with the original Monastery Training set, that one Skeleton Bowling, and the tiny Cole Archery Training thing that could all be put together. They’re not Ninjago City or anything of the sort.

[Vindicare]

Well, the news of no City Modular is quite disappointing. Those are my favorite sets... the training dojo does sound cool & will probably go well with the Temple of Airjitzu. It may be able to work with the City sets with a bit of MODing though, just have to get a good look at it. 

[Bloquerto]

Is confirmed this wave is for the new season? Because I find strange the lack of Skylor and Kai centric sets. It has been heavily hinted that both of them will have a great role in the next season. 
Also in the descriptions for the sets there isn't a mention for the main bad guy just snakes (that potentialy could be vengestone snakes because of their colors)
