Jargo Posted January 31, 2013 Posted January 31, 2013 I think I'm disappointed in the mech because of how smooth and round and agile it is in the show. The set looks unfinished. Like it's halfway through prototype phase. Which is odd considering how long this theme has been in development. Fair plat to those who like it. We can't all have the same taste. Life would be dull if we did. I just expected better for a major theme getting all the hype and PR. Quote
DarthPotato Posted February 1, 2013 Posted February 1, 2013 Although I won't be getting it, I actually really like the look of that Gorilla Mech. I'm not sure why, I just think it looks pretty cool. I love the yellow tip on the large missile and, of course, the bananas for ammunition. Quote
SoupOrFishOil Posted February 1, 2013 Posted February 1, 2013 I think that the upper half of the mech is ugly, but I still like it. Not as much as the Samurai mech or others we have seen in recent years, but it is very unique and has great looking figures. It fails at the legs though, but I think that they are posed incorrectly and that they will look better proper. Quote
Kalhiki Posted February 1, 2013 Posted February 1, 2013 I don't mind the mech. Not the best mech, but still pretty cool. I like the banana cannon and the fact that it uses Hero Factory parts for the hands is interesting.My only complaint would be the legs which just seem way to small. But maybe when it's down on all fours it'll look better. Kalhiki Quote

Kalhiki Posted February 1, 2013 Posted February 1, 2013 (edited) Gorillas' legs are smaller than their arms, though, so I think the proportions on the limbs are pretty good. True, and I realize that. But still, these seem especially stumpy. Though, it is a robot, so it doesn't really matter. Gorillas' heads also aren't blended in their chests. Kalhiki Edited February 1, 2013 by Kalhiki Quote
Dr.Cogg Posted February 1, 2013 Posted February 1, 2013 I just Built the Raven Mech,its even better than the box shows and the little temple is a nice little extra. Quote
Devorath Posted February 1, 2013 Posted February 1, 2013 I just Built the Raven Mech,its even better than the box shows and the little temple is a nice little extra. Raven Mech? Quote
Ninjinxy Posted February 1, 2013 Posted February 1, 2013 The gorilla mech looks better than I thought it would. So excited for the gorilla tribe! Quote
howie28 Posted February 1, 2013 Posted February 1, 2013 Raven Mech? I think he means Razar's Chi Raider. Quote
just2good Posted February 1, 2013 Author Posted February 1, 2013 Does anyone know when the March 2012 Ninjago Spinners were first sited here in the US, and which store it was? I'm trying to estimate the release of the March Speedorz... Quote
WARHEAD Posted February 1, 2013 Posted February 1, 2013 (edited) Wow, that gorrila mech is sweet! I haven't really been following Chima that much but I'll definitely look out for this one when it comes out. Edited February 1, 2013 by WARHEAD Quote

just2good Posted February 1, 2013 Author Posted February 1, 2013 Well I got them for Easter so around then. The new March calender gave the sets a March 1st release date. Quote
Meiko Posted February 2, 2013 Posted February 2, 2013 Do you have an image of the entire calendar? Quote
kermit Posted February 2, 2013 Posted February 2, 2013 You have to really stare at the gorilla mech for quite a few minutes to discern that it looks like a gorilla. The body is too blocky. I do notice the brown gorilla minifigure has some interesting gloves or hands. Quote

I do notice the brown gorilla minifigure has some interesting gloves or hands. I think one problem is the angle/pose. My guess is that it will look a lot better once we see it the way LEGO wants us to... Quote

Devorath Posted February 2, 2013 Posted February 2, 2013 A side view of the temple: Yes! We're getting the Croc-Tank! Quote
Speedza-Demon Posted February 2, 2013 Posted February 2, 2013 (edited) Yes! We're getting the Croc-Tank! I think that's just the front of the Croc-Boat, sadly. Edited February 2, 2013 by Speedza-Demon Quote
Jackattack7 Posted February 2, 2013 Posted February 2, 2013 A side view of the temple: http://www.flickr.co...in/photostream/ Nice, in the corner you can see a bit of the raven helicopter and the twin bike. Quote
xxlrocka Posted February 2, 2013 Posted February 2, 2013 (edited) I saw a picture of a new Crocodile vehicle, but I can't seem to recognize what it is. Maybe it might be that Croc Tank Devorath mentioned, but I haven't heard or seen the Croc Tank before so I can't be sure. Edit: No, it can't be. It looks nothing like a tank, and it's actually a plane. Sorry, guys! (And girls) Edited February 2, 2013 by xxlrocka Quote
DraikNova Posted February 2, 2013 Posted February 2, 2013 (edited) I think it's just the Croc Boat and it's split-off heli in that pic. Also, could you please share that pic xxlrocka? Edited February 2, 2013 by DraikNova Quote
