Master_Data Posted June 7, 2015 Posted June 7, 2015 That new Ninjago battle pack should include Anacondrai Cultists instead of Ghost Warriors if Kai and Jay are in their tournament robes. Nothing new for Ninjago. The Stone Army Battle Pack included Jay and Zane in their ZX forms. How did you know that name? It says it on the packaging. the other one's name is Howla. Not sure if that one is exclusive as I haven't kept up with the villains for this wave. Quote
Cagast Posted June 7, 2015 Posted June 7, 2015 These ghosts have too many different names. I don't know them all, but if somebody would make a list it would go over 15. Quote
TheOneVeyronian Posted June 7, 2015 Posted June 7, 2015 These ghosts have too many different names. I don't know them all, but if somebody would make a list it would go over 15. I actually made a list of all the ghost's names: Wrayth Pyrrhus Bansha Pitch Ghurka Wail Ghoultar Ming Cyrus Cowler Hackler Attila Spyder Yokai Soul Archer Wooo Howla Morro Evil Green Ninja 19 in total, that is quite a lot if I'm honest, and I'm not even counting the Ghost Master's lower half variants here.

legofanatic12 Posted June 7, 2015 Posted June 7, 2015 Hackler = Attila then Churka Pitch = Cowler, then Wail And Soul is actually Bansha. Quote
Aanchir Posted June 7, 2015 Posted June 7, 2015 Hackler = Attila then Churka Pitch = Cowler, then Wail And Soul is actually Bansha. Not sure what you mean? If you're talking about designs, you're a bit off. Here's my post from earlier: Other than the four ghost masters (Bansha, Wrayth, Soul Archer, and Ghoultar) there are basically only three ghost minion designs: Hood, red eyebrows, and torso with no sash. All four Ghost Ninja use this design, as does Ghost Warrior Yokai (who also has a sword holder). Straw hat, black balaclava, and torso with no sash. Ghost Warriors Wail and Pitch both use this design. Pitch also has a pannier. Straw hat, red eyebrows, and torso with sash. Ghost Warriors Cyrus, Pyrrhus, Ghurka, and Cowler all use this design. Ghurka also has a quiver. Cowler also has a sword holder in 70736, but not in his other appearances. Of the two new ghosts, Howla appears to share the basic Ghost Ninja design, but Wooo has face and torso decorations unlike any of the ghost minions we've seen, as well as headgear like Wrayth and Soul Archer.

8BrickMario Posted June 7, 2015 Posted June 7, 2015 I'd love to see Wooo's head. Those purple shadowed eyes look interesting. Quote
LegendsOfNinjago Posted June 7, 2015 Posted June 7, 2015 The Overlord has returned!!!! Jk, but really it's possible evil never dies. Quote
JasonEffex Posted June 7, 2015 Posted June 7, 2015 Of the two new ghosts, Howla appears to share the basic Ghost Ninja design. That torso is actually a bit different from the standard one. Aside from the now purple arms, the blue cloth design that appears on the other ghosts appears to be tucked inside of Howla's robes rather than hanging out of them. I really like the uniqueness of these two ghosts compared to the 3 main types of ghost warrior that appear in the sets. I'm still a bit confused why Lego would give a bunch of the ghosts in the sets different names even though they're the exact same minifigure though. But overall, the battle pack looks pretty good, I probably will pick this one up if I see it. They're about £10 in the UK right? Quote
8BrickMario Posted June 7, 2015 Posted June 7, 2015 I think Howla has a unique head, too, since it's not the red-eyebrowed face with fangs. Or is it the same as Morro's? Quote
Master_Data Posted June 7, 2015 Posted June 7, 2015 Maybe we'll see them in the D2C, so they won't be completely exclusive to the battle pack. Quote
TheOneVeyronian Posted June 7, 2015 Posted June 7, 2015 They're about £10 in the UK right? I would say so. Between £8 and £10 would have been my guess. I remember picking up the last Chima battle pack early (before it's release on S@H) in Legoland Windsor, and I might take a trip up there tomorrow to try and get myself quite a few of the new Ninjago sets, and I'll keep my eyes open for the battle pack. They could have it out, it's worth a look! Quote
samurai-turtle Posted June 7, 2015 Posted June 7, 2015 When are the "Ghost" set coming out in the states? Quote
CET23 Posted June 7, 2015 Posted June 7, 2015 When are the "Ghost" set coming out in the states? Most likely around august Quote
8BrickMario Posted June 7, 2015 Posted June 7, 2015 Out of all of the ghosts. my favorite designs are Ghoultar (because of the skeleton), Morro-possessed Lloyd, and maybe Wooo if his head is cool (also love his incredibly cheesy and silly name!) I do think it's lame how they combine parts of so many of the same ghosts and try to call them different. My least favorites would be Bansha (unrealistically pretty) and Morro (silly facial expression). Any ghost with the new tail is good, though, since I really like that piece. Quote
Aanchir Posted June 8, 2015 Posted June 8, 2015 That torso is actually a bit different from the standard one. Aside from the now purple arms, the blue cloth design that appears on the other ghosts appears to be tucked inside of Howla's robes rather than hanging out of them. Huh, you're right. I was away from my computer this weekend so it was hard for me to make a real side-by-side comparison. A battle pack is the last place I would have expected to see two brand-new ghost variants! Strangely, the out-of-package picture is different from the packaging shot, in that the figures in the packaging appear to have Earth Blue or Black arms rather than Medium Lilac ones. Oh, and the Product Page on the Ninjago website now has animations of the sets. Even for the US site, interestingly, despite the sets not yet being out over here. Quote
ReZourceman Posted June 8, 2015 Posted June 8, 2015 (edited) I made a video showing every Kai figure, including Deepstone, Airjitzu and Ninjago Magazine variants. Edited June 8, 2015 by ReZourceman Quote
DraikNova Posted June 8, 2015 Posted June 8, 2015 I've got to say, Deepstone is my favorite of those variations, with DX being a close second and Techno robes being third. Quote
Thelegomaster Posted June 8, 2015 Posted June 8, 2015 Deep stone, Zukin, and ZX are my personal favorites Quote
Sir Brickalot Posted June 8, 2015 Posted June 8, 2015 Deepstone, Airjitzu and Tournament outfits are my personal favourites. Quote
Cagast Posted June 8, 2015 Posted June 8, 2015 KX, Deepstone and airjitzu are my favorites because I love how they added more black and their elemental colors were secondary. But I also love NRG because of color combinations. Quote
Exetrius Posted June 8, 2015 Posted June 8, 2015 I made a video showing every Kai figure, including Deepstone, Airjitzu and Ninjago Magazine variants. Impressive mega comparison! Zukin, Kimono and Deepstone are my favorites, though this discussion belongs in a different thread. Quote
8BrickMario Posted June 8, 2015 Posted June 8, 2015 I'm really liking the new Deepstone robes. The dark base colors work really well. I don't understand the Arijitzu Zane fig, since it tries to awkwardly combine his NRG and Titanium Ninja looks. Quote
Vector Prime Posted June 8, 2015 Posted June 8, 2015 Where did the name "Zukin" ever come from concerning the hooded suits anyway? All official sources I know of (the Tournament app and Shadow of Ronin) referred to them as "Jungle". Quote
PenPlays Posted June 8, 2015 Posted June 8, 2015 (edited) Impressive mega comparison! Zukin, Kimono and Deepstone are my favorites, though this discussion belongs in a different thread. We are talking about details from the sets themselves, aren't we? Where did the name "Zukin" ever come from concerning the hooded suits anyway? All official sources I know of (the Tournament app and Shadow of Ronin) referred to them as "Jungle". It's simply due to their design. I go JX, Jungle or Zukin. Either way they work. Having though about it, we had "_X" names for all of the suits, but now with reoccurring first letters (Dragon Extreme (DX) and Deepstone Armor) it'll be hard to do that. Unless of course we start a code for different armors as well, in which we could also include the Stone Armor variants of the Ninja's Techno Robes as well as the Kendo Armor. Something like (Kai is an example): Kai KA (Kendo Armor) Kai SA (Stone Armor) Kai DA (Deepstone Armor) Should we make this a thing? Edited June 8, 2015 by Penkid11 Quote

Something like (Kai is an example): Kai KA (Kendo Armor) Kai SA (Stone Armor) Kai DA (Deepstone Armor) Should we make this a thing? It would certainly be interesting if we could. Would the original suit have a abbreviation or would it just be referred to as normal. Also how would we distinguish between the Techno Robes, which I assume would be TX, and the Tournament Robes. Also to continue with the discussion the KX versions (Kimono?) are my favorite but the DA are quickly growing on me. I'm really liking the new Deepstone robes. The dark base colors work really well. I don't understand the Arijitzu Zane fig, since it tries to awkwardly combine his NRG and Titanium Ninja looks. I'm also curious as to how you think it is trying to combine the NRG look with the Titanium. Quote
