Ninjago Movie Discussion (and Speculation) Topic

Well that package definitely rather remeinded me one of those chinese food boxes. Anyway did anyone notice the wheel between the treads on Zane’s Tank?
Any favorite minifigure? I for sure do like Pajamas Garmadon, Lloyd and Jay with the selfie stick.

I found out that someone posted a possible Bionicle Reference in the Ninjago City set

that upper torso on Garmadon actually looks to be his original four armed Garmadon torso but flipped around and with the arms placed the other way, so that they can add printing to the back.

Strange that the “Shark Army Great White” has a darker shark mask than the usual gray. I understand that “Great White” refers to a particularly nasty species of shark, but it’s hard to look at this thing and call it a great white.
And that flamethrower fish. :joy:

Which one stands as the better set? The NRG Dragon, or the Mech Dragon?

Is it just me or does Zanes tank look like a vacuum cleaner?

Someone got to make it into a functional vacuum cleaner.

I think The Green Mech Dragon because it has more personality traits and excellent eastern, chinese myth culture aspects.

Not to mention it has both Garmadon, Wu, and Le Lyod in their best apparel.

Agreed. Now BZpower shows that in that set, Wu has two face expression. I wonder if it’s true. That shark guy was either burned by the later pointer or a Vulcano that can be seen in either Garmadon’s Pajamas and in the Destiny’s Bounty box background.

New Minifigs from the Ninjago movie series has come out today, with the N-POP Girl, Lloyd, Garmadon, and Flashback Garmadon, respectively.

That head piece. It feels like the fish is still alive and aware of how stupid it looks on the Shark Army Ranger’s head. I’m really beginning to wonder what the film’s explanation will be for the underwater theme.

Cole is literally an AC-DC fan.

Even as a huge Lloyd fan, I still find the minifig with the Mech Dragon blueprints unnecessary.

Okey going by each of the minifigures:
Shark Army Octopus - aka Orange Squidward
https://scontent.fbeg4-1.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/19366105_1497159620305261_7191949552710688013_n.jpg?oh=4f6ea02793d6b1259485e38e42a0be61&oe=59E29809

An army builder figure, if you really want a fish related army, his octopuss headgear looks very usable even as a separate thing by itself (unless the shoulder piece is attached with the headgear, then its gutter trash), but overal with common weapons such as the shooter, fish and the common print, this figure will be one of those that most people will try to avoid as much as possible.

Zane - aka Happy Civilian Zane
https://scontent.fbeg4-1.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/19400007_1497159556971934_4382933495597151142_n.jpg?oh=5e0418b77b121c146f54710ffc41e016&oe=59C8E5F2

A cheap way to get the Zane minifigure and his exclusive new hair piece in white. His expression is appropriate and reusable even outside of Ninjago. Heck, a useful figure for any type of collection. He has the camper backpack in new colors, and has very nice torso and leg printings. His torso print has an easter egg in a form of the Alien Conquest head leaches.

Overall a very useful figure and a desirable one.

Cole - aka Teen rock edgelord civillian Cole
https://scontent.fbeg4-1.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/19399470_1497159503638606_2245088637024333027_n.jpg?oh=927d7ecc7e2cca0200306f8676e75ff2&oe=59E49242

Now this one is going to be very useful. He has that new hair, but this time without a scarf going over it, which makes it even more useful for regular use. His rock oriented torso print is nice as well as the leg printing (though the legs are probably only usable with any top torso thats primarily a ■■■■■ in dark blue color) . He also has a descent accessory of a jukebox in a black color.

Very useful for any use, also very desirable.

Shark Army Angler - Female Ripjaws.

https://scontent.fbeg4-1.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/19275140_1497159393638617_4977477543160953425_n.jpg?oh=de826b99289240045bc524d607c79ce8&oe=59D712B1

Hoboy, its a lady, a lady fish, with hyno eyes and a fish mallet. Now this is what makes me hope that the shoulder piece is a completely sepparate thing from the headgear a bit more than before since its obvious that the headgear is not attached to the shoulder piece. It also is a nice army builder set and a nice way to get female version of that army torso print. Her accesory is somewhat meh like the ones before. The head printing maybe the most useful thing on this set for outside use.

Overall a bit more desirable than Orange Squidward, but still one of those you hope not to get in blind picks over so many other useful choices.

GPL Tech - aka Robins Girlfriend

https://scontent.fbeg4-1.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/19399658_1497158393638717_2128931081516838961_n.jpg?oh=cc2db444c34cbf863fe88f206dc91c43&oe=59CE8168

What a very very nice and highly useful figure for sciency stuff. It has the lab coat but with the awesome batman ■■■■■ under it. Has that goofy head print that stares deeply into your soul (looks like she is a Faculty student by the looks of her dead eyes). Her accesory is a standard mug, and a amazing laptop set (apparently screw over Apple, LEGO is the new and hot electronic brand on the market)

This maybe a way they tie in LEGO Batman with Ninjago (more on the connections later on).

Very desirable figure, want it myself cause of the lab coat.

Kendo Kai - aka Kendo Edgelord V2.0
https://scontent.fbeg4-1.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/19399949_1497158343638722_7771547439846546709_n.jpg?oh=793e25ab5c2d675367612260c400cd6f&oe=59CE7929

A nice addition to the kendo club with the Kendo headgear and shoulder pieces colored in black and red with a bit of pearl gold. Nice way to get the Kai hair piece, and hte expression is so Kai.

Overal a nice addition to the Ninjago collection, but not as useful for everyday use aside from the hair and maybe even the head.

Flashback Garmadon - aka Trump Garmadon
https://scontent.fbeg4-1.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/19430044_1497158280305395_5604201601835329100_n.jpg?oh=12cd92edc228b5596826d8184a55e2c4&oe=59E6ABB7

Wow Misako, what ever did you see in this dude, cause it sure wasnt his looks.Jokes aside this is a very goofy rendition of Garmadon with a useful Trump hair piece and accesories. Not as useful of a torso print due to the nature of Garmatrumps design, but the legs are still servicable.

A funny figure, will be desirable just for the goofy factor and for all those potential Trump figures, but not as many useful everyday pieces besides legs, hair and accesories (which aint anything new).

Garmadon - aka No cloth Armored Garmadon
https://scontent.fbeg4-1.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/19366402_1497158206972069_3806584177077609103_n.jpg?oh=c40609ddaeb07784628dcca7435a0c60&oe=59D6EE08

Easy way to get Garmadon in his battle clothes with those awesome new staff and hat pieces. Overal nice addition ot hte Garmadon collection, but not very useful for everyday use due to the very specific piece usage on him.

Llyod - aka Blueprint Le Lyod
https://scontent.fbeg4-1.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/19397108_1497158106972079_1702088374984886187_n.jpg?oh=af6b871f3d3b4a473de76e21183054c7&oe=59DBD857

Meh, bleh, already have bunch of sets with his Ninja attire. I guess this is a cheaper way to get the main character in his battle clothes, but appart from the head and blueprint em prints there is nothing new with him.

Overal average figure, been there done that.

N-POP Girl - aka superuu Ninjago POP Girl Sugoi uber Kawaii Unikitty Moi Moi uguuuuuu

https://scontent.fbeg4-1.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/19396765_1497157993638757_7289016713126951692_n.jpg?oh=96f1ad755925a826702eea812d22bf1b&oe=59E4287B

Definitely a Unikitty fangirl, and definitelly envocing that Japanese street cosplay.
https://scontent.fbeg4-1.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-0/p200x200/19399705_446394189062025_8158153556930462373_n.jpg?oh=2f89df0bbf09be2a64c8ab78773234c9&oe=59E1998B
Her hair isnt anything new (Harleys hair) but now in cotton candy colors. Everything on her is useful for everyday use.

Very desirabel figure, super weeb kawaii.

Gong & Guitar Rocker - aka Coles favourite rock band
https://scontent.fbeg4-1.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/19275308_1497059043648652_8832339953872140054_n.jpg?oh=7a7108d9c8a44b163f026e1d86494f9a&oe=59E459BE

Another rocker in the minifigure series, but again very useful prints from the legs, to the arm tattoos, and the hippy hair in black.
Useful for everyday things, an average figure in terms of desirability.

Shark Army General #1 - aka Mermaid General

https://scontent.fbeg4-1.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/19274977_1497057750315448_2481118260740699643_n.jpg?oh=9c29d25aca239ddba5a71529bf00f522&oe=59E6B6E1

The first way we can obtain this figure with those very rad cloth pieces, and her torso print is also not too bad. The hair is an old piece but still very useful due to it this time being completely black. Her head print is useful for everday things and her milkshake accesory is a welcome addition to any collection.

Very desirable figure, lots of interesting pieces.

Shark Army Great White - aka Scorched Earth Black Shark General

https://scontent.fbeg4-1.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/19396655_1497057693648787_1130862096127678458_n.jpg?oh=1cd29eba758ca2ca8b74e7f2ccec8f64&oe=59E21051

Silly little figure with not many useful pieces for regular use, but still a nice addition to the fish army collection. also very silly flamethrower fish.

Jay Walker - aka Jay Let me take a selfy Skywalker
https://scontent.fbeg4-1.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/19366528_1497057600315463_1416135961224294421_n.jpg?oh=8d4c922c5d23ceefd6896ee8a3cdbd6f&oe=59E5D787

Useful figure all over the board. From the new hair piece, to the rad new scarf piece, he also has useful prints all over. And the ingenious way they made a selfy stick, brilliant.

Very desirable figure, everyone will want 10 of him.

Misako - aka Best LEGO Waifu
https://scontent.fbeg4-1.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/19366369_1497057560315467_7183808268623490675_n.jpg?oh=31c60287a899c6d01f17288fff0b5367&oe=59CD30C4

A cheap way to get Misako but with an all new exclusive workgear torso and leg prints. The new hair spaks for itsefl and her happy face is useful for any use.

Very desirable figure for any use.

Sushi Chef - aka Restaurant Pirate
https://scontent.fbeg4-1.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/19366188_1497057530315470_4193992642093749949_n.jpg?oh=e0c9ae3f22f34a27b8bfaf4bfb1f88aa&oe=59E32168

Neat figure if you want to make a sushi joint. Sheap way to get the sushi pieces and the new chopping utensil. His torso print is useful overall and I can see his legs be used for a scientist figure and such (aka Dexter comes into mind)

Nice figure, desirable parts, but overall aveage by looks.

Lloyd Garmadon - aka Breakfast Le Lyod

https://scontent.fbeg4-1.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/19397047_1497057416982148_7202357412993617603_n.jpg?oh=c7cd493d1e2261223a1b046eec5e6118&oe=59CCDC7E
This is the year for those that like green, have blonde hair, and like hoodies. That hoodie is a new and awesome mold that everyone will want, and those spoon nad bowl pieces with the oriental printing. Cant wait for the hoodie to come in more colors, overall useful figure and top tier desirable.

Spinjitzu Training Nya - aka rehash torso Nya
https://scontent.fbeg4-1.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/19399634_1497057373648819_8435481254538941024_n.jpg?oh=7fa34c173a332fb883d2ea5a4d21b701&oe=59DB9509
Meh bleh in terms of the whole body since we already have ways to get that in other sets, but again this is a cheap way to get this. Also very cheap way to get Nyas hair piece and her smug face is useful for everyday use. Also training wooden swords.

Desirable due ot her hair and head, bur average in terms of her whole package.

Master Wu - aka Breakfast Wu
https://scontent.fbeg4-1.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/19399197_1497057320315491_3066141463537654141_n.jpg?oh=6337eea5d4f5b757b1f9d48a5c9d3fcf&oe=59D3741A

Chicken wrecked Wu so much it had enough money to start a breakfast cereal company and now is rollling in the money. Wu can only smile in discontent of his loss (possibly contemplating jumping over another lavafall).

Not anything new when it comes to pieces, but still a cheap way to get Wu with new head print, and Breakfast prints will be desirable a lot.

Volcano Garmadon - aka Breakfast Garmadon

https://scontent.fbeg4-1.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/19420565_1497057150315508_1122978157028669566_n.jpg?oh=fd5d9e294989210bb99dd32fef7b69da&oe=59CC0640

Again another silly Garmadon figure with additional sillyness. He really likes his volcanos (probably wants to chuck his loser brother over some lava fall due to his loss against a chicken). Nice way to get the bowl prints and pijamas. And a cheap way to get the Shogun headgear.

Desirable due to the useful prints and sillyness factor

Final verdict for the Minifigure series: 11/20 Slightly above average series but still with a lot of very useful pieces and figures. Would recommend it to any LEGO fan, even if they werent Ninjago fans to begin with.
