ninjago set pics are up on shop@home!!!!!!!! they look amazing, but the prices are a bit..... off. for the uk anyways. the ToE set is £28, not 25, same with the overlord dragon. if you compare this price to the US prices, its quite a bit higher. not appreciated lego. still not too hot on that overlord dragon. to the people of the uk, what are your thoughts on the titan mech price being £55? that's £10 higher than what it was originally meant to be.

 I think £55 is a fine price... $60/£45 would be considered a bargain, really.

I'm still waiting for the gardens and the season 14 The Island sets.

I suppose, but lego has upped the prices of sets that should be 25, to 28. this is disgraceful IMO. I could see it happening with the Mando set, as that's a Star Wars thing, but the ninjago sets?especilly that overlord dragon, £28 for 2 minifigs and an *interesting* build? and still no word on the gardens either.

If this keeps up for any longer, then I guarantee that the gardens will go down as a meme for the most lengthy, anticipated, and confusing set reveal in a looooong time.

One thing I have noticed though is that some people arguing against a January gardens release are also arguing against a January release for the legacy sets, which has been all but confirmed with ninjawhip confirming January, the catalog being from New Zealand, and the sets already showing up in stores.

Another thing is that promobricks has been incredibly accurate with their release dates. Even that weird juniors legacy set that for some reason is coming out in March they got right. 
 

Another thing is that I want this set already!!!

the new legacy sets are a confirmed jan 1st release, all sets are up at shop@home. except the damn gardens. its still not mid to late December though, but its getting that way. me and my friend have built a 5 floor, 32x32 city module we call the ninjago city sky line in anticipation. and yet we still get nothing. I Wish Lego could release a teaser, like the daily prophet photographer for Diagon Alley, like JUST SHOW US A DR JULIAN MINIFIGURE FOR GOD SAKE!!!!! anyways, haven't seen much discussion on here about the contents of the set. we know its a 32x32 baseplate, most likely a corner module and has a 16x32 section with a pagoda/temple on it.19-18 figures, and over 5000 parts. also we know kai, golden wu and zane are in it. that's it. so, what minifigs should be included? do you think there's any side builds like boats or hover boards in it? time to discuss.

Tell me about it man. I have Ninjago City and Docks still new in box, don't want to build them until Gardens is confirmed in some capacity. I would probably sell them if they were going to be the only two sets in the line. But if it's more like investing in modulars I would love to have 3 or 4 sets total.

If it does turn out to be fake, how much would u sell the city for. Also, are you from the US or UK? I’m in the market for a ninjago city set and I can’t find many under £400

I'm in the US. I mean to be honest I wouldn't sell it for anything under $500, I bought them when they were retired so I paid a pretty penny.  Would at least get my money back. Fingers crossed Gardens exists though!

I also have both Light My Bricks kits so that adds even more value!

k dont worry about it man, im with you on the gardens hype and I understand the value of the sets. there all definitely worth it. hopefully we have pictures of it soon, but lego is taking their sweet time......

Here’s a general sketch, hardest part was figuring out the perspective. You can tell where I had no idea what to do so I just left it. Some stuff like the red bridge is left out because I didn’t know where to put it. Thoughts?

Sorry to disappoint, but almost everything included in the sketch is in the Chinese Garden set... That said, it's doubtful that TLG will ever cancel such a huge set, so there's still hope...

Jesus Christ, I was going to do this, but this is serious dedication. well done!! pretty much what I envisioned as well, and I believe the river will be diagonal. I think there will be 2 concrete platforms, with a tower on the top left, large open water section on the top right, second tower bottom right and smaller river section on the bottom. the red bridge should connect to the 2nd baseplate. in my mind this all makes sense, as if you look at the ninjago modulars, then you can see that the first one was 32x32. the docks were 32x48, and this is 32x48. if they are all put together, that gives you a width of 128 studs, simply massive, and lego likes to do things in 3s, 3 waves, 3 years and I doubt that they would leave such a thing like the modulars. IMO I think they were gonna release 1 in 2019, didn't get it out in time and just decided to keep it for the 10 year annerversarey. also, the main set was a corner module, the docks were a length module, and having another corner would round it all off. thanks for creating this sketch, glad to see that other people are also as hyped for this set as me......

Someone here asked Promobricks and they said not to be worried about Chinese Gardens being the Ninjago Gardens set. 

[a guy from somewhere]

also just realised, the spring lantern festival, the Chinese new year set is £90!!!!!!! WHAT???? severely overpriced, but good looking set.

Yes I have heard about that, but it's always important to remember that rumors should be taken as a pinch of salt...

that would be me, they said something along the lines off: "why would people get this set and the gardens of ninjago city set mixed up?". let me go see if I can find the original quote....

1793 pieces for 90 GBP is amazing value to me...

Also, I think you're supposed to discuss about the CNY sets here:

point taken, foot about the piece count. just looks a little small in the official pics. just got an old baseplate out, and its actually pretty big. my bad.

I also reached out to promobricks via email and they told me not to worry.

I think it was you that I'm talking about! 

[a guy from somewhere]

might fire off an email to TLG customer service, sometimes they like hint at certain sets being revealed or released. I know one hinted at the re-release of the Saturn v rocket a whole 2 months before we even knew any thing about the re release.... lets see if they tell us to keep our eyes peeled for late December or something. either that or they tell me it dosent exist or they dont know anything about it.

Yeah haha! Crazy to think that over a month ago!

Don’t worry my man, I’ve been kinda obbsessed with this thing. I don’t even care if it comes out in April or whatever, I just wanna see what it ends up looking like, because that sketch has been teasing me since august and it looks like it could even top Ninjago city as the best set in a while..

I've sent TLG an email already, but they responded: No, we do not have any news about the upcoming Ninjago City Gardens set quite yet.

Did lego just officially confirm the sets existence?

quite yet...... did they say that or did you? if so, this could confirm its existence. they could just say that they cant share anything right now......

that's exactly what I just said.... great minds think alike I suppose.
