The Nexo Knights Topic

No.
It doesn’t matter.
It shouldn’t matter.

People think that because people keep trying to force more female characters into things on the grounds that there needs to be more female.

No, if you add a character for no other reason than ‘more ____’ they’re a token, they exist to fill a quota.

And to keep this relevant, OK, you want more female characters in nexo knights, which male characters do you want dead? Or do you want to flood the roster with characters so all the characters get less development?

Those new sets (aside from the stone colossus) look a lot better than the first wave. The castle is magnificent, and macy’s dragon is cool because it doesn’t look like just another NK vehicle (mainly because of the nice color choices). The heligoyle is interesting, and I’m very interested in seeing who’s that bad guy minifig in Aaron’s set.

I short: “the large ones are crap, but the small ones are atleast good, but nexo knights is starting to be like Chima, I think that the next year would be the last” Why he thinks so ? I cant get it.

I’ve just watched the rest of season 3.

It was great.

(also the stone colossus looks better in the show).

What doesn’t look better in the show? :stuck_out_tongue:

king’s mech, IMO

it’s pretty lanky in the series proper.

The King’s mech, the siege machine of doom, the evil mobile, and the chaos chariot are some that come to my mind right now, but yeah you’re probably right. I think they did a great job with the 3D models overall, especially the battle suits.

Hopefully we get Monstrox’s human form. Bit worried about Nexo Knights potentially not getting a third year, which people seem concerned about at the moment.

In terms of what interests me, the black stone goblin thing from the Collosus set and Lord Krakenskull are definitely figures i’ll want to pick up. Still an immense shame that we do not get the water and swamp based villains we’ve seen in the artbook, i felt they had more unique designs.

IDK, some of the swamp guys looked pretty lame.

the water ones were cool, though


also, having caught up on the show

I plan to get

  • Lance’s Twin Jouster
  • Ruina’s Lock and Roller
  • The Heligoyle
  • The Stone Colossus of Ultimate Destruction
  • Knighton Castle
  • Macy’s Bot Drop Dragon

and then big maybes for Clay’s Falcon Fighter and Aaron’s Rock Climber

also, in the show

there are 3 Harpies

but there’s only 1 set that has 1 in the sets, that being the Heligoyle

IDK if I’m just gonna try to get the minifigs on the aftermarket

or just buy 3 Heligoyles.

I mean, the parts are nice

but IDK.

True, think it would have been nice to get more varied pieces though.

Kind of seems like a downgrade for Nexo Knights going from lava monsters to stone monsters. Swamp or Water may have also been a downgrade, but could have been interesting to see regardless.

Plus we could have gotten a big-fig Shark guy.

how is that a good thing?

I guess you dislike big-figs?

Personally I take it as showing Lego’s commitment to the theme, that they are willing to make an almost entirely new more expensive mold and take a risk on it not selling.

Big-fig’s are more expensive to make as they require more of the ‘plastic’ than regular sized figures - so when a theme gets a big-fig its normally because Lego are investing in the theme. It also would have offered a bit more variance than brick-built villains or minifigures.

I much prefer the brickbuilt giants the line has given us thus far compared to the typical bigfigs.

yeah, i noticed that they only use bigfigs in some very “monotization” worth themes, like in ninjago, we just the first ninjago big fig in just last year, so ?

And has anyone tried to make a forbidden trio power ? (like put three forbidden powers into a combi shield and scan into the game)

To be fair, the stone monsters are interlaced with electricity and lightning, a unique combination to say the least

Are you talking about how he partially appears in the finale or am I missing something?

I liken this new season, epsidoes 21-30, to the Outlands arc from Chima

vastly superior to the first 20

but still flawed.

the biggest misstep, IMHO, was making Aaron the replacement leader. Like, their excuse for not making it Macy was acceptable, and certainly the other two are not leadership material, but IDK, I just don’t see the heroic qualities fit for leadership in Aaron that all the other characters seem to see
