Can I have a question? How did LEGO Chima ended? 'cause it'd stopped airing in my country just as that one guy, who was adoptive father of lioness love interest, was "charcoaled" and I couldn't find any more of it.
@@AmetistJones so it ended with the six heroes (Laval, Cragger, Eris, Razar, Worriz, and Gorzan) finding the six pairs wings of fire (I forget what their actual names are) then they flew into mount Cavora which then unfroze everything and everyone, and Sir Fangar became uncursed
Mixels and Chima were so cool. While the shows were okay, their sets were amazing. Mixels were cheap, but fun, colorful, and so creative. Chima incorporated the animal motifs so well. Edit: OMG, I can’t believe how much popularity this comment got, thank you.
Mixels, Unikitty and Chima was my childhood. Their sets were fun to play. Speaking of Chima I've liked Season 2 and 3 much better. I still hate Crooler though. Also, why did Lego though it was an good idea to make the Crocs, Wolves, Ravens and Rhinos Bad guys for no reason in the first place!? Why Lego!? I blame Those dumb writers and those stupid Brainwashing Flowers ruining craggers life, Thanks for nothing Crooler... YOU SUCK 🅰️SS! Also the worst offender for season 1 was those 2 gawd awful episodes like Reunion Gone Wrong and Chima falls... OMG THESE EPISODES WERE SO AWFUL!! Glad ep20 was the best episode in that season and an perfect way to end the shows season.
@@BellHillMayor Yeah Chima really did improve in seasons 2 and 3. That felt like a much better blend of world building, lore, plot, and character growth.
Also I've wished Season 1 got an rewritten Remake if Lego ever brings it back. Season 1 was okay, I've just wished that Lego didn't make the Crocs, Wolves, Raves and the Rhinos the bad guys in the first place, Like seriously Lego? That didn't make sense whatsoever -_- I've preferred evil insects and evil bats and evil frozen animals as the bad guy tribes myself, that made more sense to me.
it hurts seeing chima as one of the forgotten because it was one of the things that shaped my childhood the most. from the lego sets to the series, it is truly one of the most nostalgic things for me
Nexo Knights actually has some insanely cool shit in their sets, the swords and shields were genuinely really sick and I think I brought a few small sets here and there for those. Chima was also really cool with some really good sets as well but you actually didn’t mention one of the best series in my opinion, I don’t know if it was made as a show or if it had a show made after it already started as a Lego line but Hero Factory was so cool as a kid I honestly liked it over Bionicle but that’s probably a result of the time period I grew up a bit after bionicle’s peak and before the really bad reattempt at bringing it back
it was amazing. still have all my figs but I don't have the sets fully built anymore. Main thing I loved was the axel mold that should be used way more but tweaked a little
Honestly one of my favorite things about chima's show was its scale. Battles there actually had bigger fights and army vs. army with the main characters included. Shows like Ninjago tend to be smaller scale where only the heroes fight their enemies and everyone else is just kinda.. useless lol, they run and hide or dont bother getting involved. Chima actually had most if not all members of the tribes fight each other, it felt much more involved rather than relying on one small group of indviduals. It stood out more than practically every other show that was focused on just a single "group". One was sorta like playing a squad based shooter, the other a game of Civilization.
seeing mixels and chima as forgotten shows baffles me tbh. those two shows were the pinnacle of childhood for me. i remember searching for mixel fanart and mixels youtube videos when i was younger
Chima was actually pretty good, and it holds up to this day there’s a lot of messages about Oil and specifically western countries that horde oil and have invaded the Middle East for it. It’s interesting to see everything I never would have picked up on as a kid, watching the show. Edit: It's a kid's show chill out in the comments
Don't forget the moral lesson of corruption and manipulation being able to ruin lifelong friendships, which is kind of an easier message for a kid's brain to interpret.
I never thought about Chi being oil, especially when Chi means god in Igbo, and is about Chima's society's life source. It's not finite like oil, though it takes time to regenerate; it can be exploited because of it's psychological and political effects, not because of monetary value (even if oil also has political influence in our world, it's much different from Chi's). I'd say Chima is more broad, about human nature in general, like the exploitation of power, addiction, and religion, and the exploitation of oil does fall on one of Chi's critical topics.
It’s sad Lego Chima, Nexo Knights and especially Mixels were forgotten. Mixels was my life back then. I remember collecting every single mixel and having fun mixing them together.
Nexo Knights hasn’t been forgotten by all though. There’s an active fandom dedicated to keeping the show alive. You just have to look around. I’d know, I’m one of the fans that clings to the show still. I know plenty of fellow fans, kinda crazy what you find when you look!
The thing that interests me most about Nexo Knights is that there are some major changes to the status quo (Jestro joins the main knights) that people only know about because five sets were completed before it was cancelled and released anyway.
Merlok also dies and is replaced by Ava. That’s another big thing that happened! Honestly sounds like the show was gonna be quite different in some ways and would have been enjoyable to see play out. Unfortunately, we never got that fifth or sixth season. BUT HEY! That’s what a fandom’s for, right?! If you look around, it’s amazing how long this show has managed to keep fans for. I know like 30 people probably at least who like the show actively and I keep finding more people who like it everyday!
@@mrfazbear1849 The comics aren’t considered to be actual canon, they are more like alternate universe. However, they do give us an idea of what it might be like!
@@mrfazbear1849 Another source of ideas of what the season 5&6 could look like comes from the Merlok 2.0 app. The canonicity of both are debated in the fandom but they’re interesting to absorb regardless.
I remember when Ninjago "ended" and Chima came out, my brother and I were at the prime age for this stuff, and we were MAD. Ninjago had a natural conclusion but we didn't care we wanted it back. We figured Chima was replacing it (and we were right) and our dad suggested writing letters to lego about it. While I cringe at it now, that's exactly what we did. We ended up getting mail back saying that Ninjago would return. Even after all that I don't think I watched past season 3 lol. I probably was too old for it at that point.
I never forgot Chima and Nexoknights. Chima has been my favorite and I wished it did continue. Chima's second season wasn't really catching and I could tell it couldn't last. However, they ended it on a good note and I did enjoy it to the end. Knowing it got cameos in Ninjago gives me a little hope that LEGO will do more cameos with it like they always have with their retired sets. I do remember they tried inventing a toy set for kids to battle with, it didn't stick however.
I never watched season 2 of chima but I still play the 3ds game and i still remember when chima made a cameo in ninjago it was one of my favorite moments in the ninjago series
"it didn't stick however" i mean maybe not for all but it did for me, me and my female friend LOVED the show and we watched all of it, at least i did since i enjoyed it so much but i remember she came to my house and had bought some lego chima set we could have fun with and we went to her house and had hella fun with them, i don't know how but we somehow did.. we even used to combine other parts to make them like more icey since some of the episodes had ice tribe, we liked doing so much together we even fell in love! i knows its pretty crazy how common interest can mean but at least i hope you know that at least some people at fun with the legos and the chima show..
I grew up with Ninjago when it first aired and I loved the first two seasons. As Chima began to air I ended up getting hooked on that series too and loved it more than Ninjago, but a lot of Lego fans seemed to enjoy the former show to my surprise and by the time I realized by just how much, Chima got cancelled and Ninjago Rebooted starting airing. It's a shame because the show vastly improved with each season and during Season 3 it was revealed that Chima was a floating island above a much larger world that never got expanded on. It was cut too short and I wish it had received more attention than it got. I'm hoping that one day it gets brought back with a movie or another season that explores more of what the realm has offer, especially given how it's connected to other shows.
It is honestly so sad that they dumped so much lore that Merlok is Clay's father and Stoneheart is his mom then showing that Mostrox is still alive and canceling the show at a cliffhanger
I really liked Lego nexo knights. I always thought the show had potential. It had interesting characters with different backgrounds like Jestro, Macy and Clay and the narrative could have expanded in many different and interesting ways, but they chose to make many episodic episodes with repetitive scenarios, and small budget in the lands of the kingdom and especially in people's villages and clothes.
Yeah thought it was cool the main character effectively dies and the green night has to step up as leader, really interesting choice to see the bad ass side character be given the responsibilities of the typically more tame, heroic leader
gotta love how Mixels actually puts the "Lego" and "Imagination" both into The Cartoon and The Lego versions of the character since you can actually go nuts and create your own Mixes
I honestly think that mixels are the most pure representation of Lego. Colorful little creative guys that you can mix and be creative with. They encourage imagination to the max (heh). If someone would ask me what the entire Lego brand was all about (in play and concept), I'd show them mixels
Nexo Knights will FOREVER be one of my favourite shows. I fell in love with how unique the worldbuilding ideas were and how interesting the world got, with each new aspect being like "Wow, that's actually super smart!" Each of the characters were unique with their own backstories and I absolutely LOVE the magic system. It's never been done before and that's why I loved it so much. There was so much potential for it People kind of forgot about Nexo Knights but I will always remember it to be one of the most interesting worlds I have ever seen
@@TeriyakchickenSame. The show didn't get a real ending tho. It's sad BC it was really good actually 😭 I still remember stealing my friends curse shields when I was little 😂 It was bad but he didn't really care 💅
@@saki437 they got a good "half ending" though, the people marched in the evil book castle when they got all the evil books and one of them sacrificed themselves and ended the evil for all, sorry if it was kinda a second spoiler
@@Pinkxerrs-cy8sz 😐Thats the ending of the fiesta season. The true ending îs when is when they destroy the Colossus. But the series was not done so they need to make another season. And don't worry about spoilers I watched it all when I was little
Unikitty and Mixels were some of the most fun Lego themes in recent memory to me, The shows were really entertaining and the sets were (for lack of a better term) Really fun, super colorful, and great build and play with, they are two Lego themes I miss a lot.
Fr, like they were great and underrated shows however because they were meant for a more younger and childish audience they were not really expanded upon.
I think the main reason Legends of Chima didn't catch on was because it couldn't capture kids' imaginations like Ninjago could. To show what I mean, I think Harry Potter is the perfect example of this, almost every kid who watched the series could imagine themselves at Hogwarts and learning magic. Ninjago had that quality thanks to Spinjitzu, you could learn kung fu then spin around into an elemental tornado, what kid wouldn't love that? Plus it was basically screaming for kids to imagine what their own element would be, especially Season 4 where they introduced a million different elements to show kids that they could pick whatever they wanted. But for Legends of Chima, they just didn't have that aspect, the only thing going for them was Chi which only made you glow a little on top of making you faster and stronger, it pull in a kid's imagination like Hogwarts or Spinjitzu could. I think that aspect was the lightning in the bottle that Ninjago was able to capture that the other shows just couldn't. Luckily not all Lego shows are doing bad, Monkie Kid seems to be doing well from what I can tell, I personally love that show, I just wish they made it more accessible.
Chima has a soft spot in my childhood heart. I love watching Chima as a kid and got one of their sets, I also enjoyed watching Mixels too, they were really fun.
i really liked the more grounded, morally gray tone of chima. a reason of why the theme failed is that lego sets usually are placed in an "evil" section and the "heroes" section (for stories), but because the crocodiles weren't exactly bad they had problems as to where to put them and children got confused
That, and LEGO was milking the hell out of the Fire vs Ice sub theme (literally three set waves just for that) rather than letting Chima do something new, and I think kids got tired of it.
I so VIVIDLY remember being in the ninjago fandom when Chima first released. The beef between ninjago and chima/the fandoms was so real. It was truly an era
The Unikitty show in my opinion was so underrated. One of the only times I actually wanted LEGO sets tied to a TV show aside from Star Wars the clone wars.
Same here! I got as many sets as I can before they no longer made it and found (in the US at least, though you can find more sets in other countries such as Ecuador)
Not enough people talking about how fire Unikitty is, its a top tier lego show that was great every episode, none of the characters were annoying and all very likable. It deserved better than what it got 8.5/10 show.
I remember the nexo knights mobile game, it was fantastic. you could use the shields you got through sets and scan them in the game for abilities and even combine them! it was super fun
Maaaaaan. I loved that game. I downloaded images on another phone and scanned them😂 I can't find the game anywhere now and even if I do it doesn't work. The whole serial was completely forgotten and the original game deleted 😢😞
To be certain, I've never forgotten Unikitty!, even though it's part of the Lego Movie franchise. And despite stopping and forgotten where I left off on its final season, I thoroughly enjoyed it, especially the character herself and great Tara Strong's voice performance.
Nexo Knights, Unikitty and Mixels may be forgotten, but they absolutely are the few that carried my childhood (my cringe era) when they were still running. The Nexo Knights and Mixels game they used to have had potential too (Maybe I'm just saying that bc it help build my childhood)
The Unikitty and Mixels are both very strongly distinguished from Ninjago because of them being 2D animated, and both of them overall, essentially having their own unique identity. Mixels, especially because that show is an all-time childhood favorite of mine and I love it in every single way. And before you ask me, I got every single Mixel that Lego ever sold.
In my opinion Chima is the only one that really feels like it deserves to come back. but NOT as its own show, since it prolly wouldnt do that well, however they can continue the legacy of the chima world and its characters in Ninjago Dragons Rising. Now that all the realms have merged. Also can u imagine a Ninjago season set in Chima, that world is just so beautiful I'd LOVE IT! Since a lot of people are speculating that lord ras (the secondary antagonist of dragons rising for anyone who doesnt know who he is) is from chima which I agree with id love to see this be a reality and get some cameos from a few other chima characters from time to time.
Chima can come back by itself and do well. It was meant to be something. Ninjago has nothing to do with Chima if you think about it If you're interested in how Chima would work alone, you might be interested in The Forgotten Legends of Chima! It's my interpretation of Chima's storyline
@@bennysundance175 ooooh. They were separated from the main world after the place was all... whatevered up and the great devourer is the true version of the snakes. Interesting. Maybe some travellers tea was used and accidentally brought the snakes.
Chima wasy my childhood and I'll hopefully never forget it. In school we always theorised which animal races would be added next, but then it just stopped. I started being interested in Nexo knights afterwards, but it always was just like a filler for the hole left behind.
Man Chima was my favorite theme when I was a kid. I loved Ninjago, but everything about Chima was just ten times cooler to me. I never got that many sets, but the ones I did get I have butchered into all manner of creations over the years. I was really sad when it ended, but not like I could do anything about that. One of these days I'm gonna buy some of the Chima sets I really wanted when I was young.
What I've found to be interesting about LoC's ending is that the entirety of the show had happened in only 1 of the many floating islands that could be seen just before it all cuts to black, and Cragger says: "how do we get down from here?" It's giving Dragon City with the islands floating above an unexplored world with inter-lapping biomes It's also giving MCSM, season 1 episode 5
Same, I loved chima so much, I remember wanting the lion temple for my 10th birthday and my parents searched so long for it, only to find it was discontinued 😢
I remember having all of the games, some sets, I was a big fan, but then it just stopped and I forgot about it,, until I replayed all of the PS games I had of chima, such a throwback to my childhood, now I've been hoping for a possible comeback, it's possible, not as its own but apart with ninjago.
i used to really like Nexo Knights back when I was 10! to the point where i would make my own characters and draw fanart for the show, as well engage in a lot of fandom stuff surprisingly, a lot of people loved it despite it's lackluster plot-i think a lot of the interest came from the fact that people used their imaginations to fill in the blanks of character backstories, making them more 3 dimensional. some of the fanworks by other people give them WAY more depth than anything the show could ever do
Also, I loved Nexo Nights the game. Scanning the shields to get funny and OP spells in-game was really fun. I do know now that you could've literally just draw the shields or google them, but I still have a little collection of them to this day
@@TheRealYgrek AY SAME. The nostalga is coming back to me rlly hard. I am dissapointed the app went down. :( I would have scanned some illegal shields from later seasons.
Although just making the same villain return and turning the other guy evil again just after he tried to redeem himself was the worst decision they could have made, season 3&4 actually expanded on some characters which was nice. Again sad that they just made them having no way to defeat the new monsters at first and then just getting a new way to power up an early season "plot" point, but these seasons atleast don't feel like every episode's the same when revisiting them now, definetly an upgrade from season 1&2. Of course I enjoyed all of it a few years ago.
The Nexo Knights community is surprisingly active to this day. For any NEXO Knight fans that were reawakened due to this video, Tubi has all the episodes of NEXO Knights if wanna find where to watch it.
Chima had great sets and a good concept, sad it didn’t get to go further. ALSO, Chima is theorized to have been the concept between Lego and Cartoon Network that got the Thundercats reboot canceled, since CN Executives wanted to do more with Lego
I feel that Chima still holds up to this day , it was a huge part of my childhood and the childhoods of others .The designs , messages, and story where done so well. It's still my goal to collect all the Chima lego sets lol. I will never forget this show. Also nice vid lol. ❤ ( I also like Nexo Knights but not as much )
Another forgotten Lego show I watched as a kid: Lego Hero Factory. This one felt a bit more mature than the other Lego stuff I watched, and some episodes, villains and concepts really terrified me as a kid, and I still have some of the sets and guidebooks.
@@fathiyyah3198robot cops fighting mechanical criminals, bio terrorists, interdemsional black hole gods, the oil barons, bio terrorists again, convicts, aliens, and more aliens but big this time.
@@fathiyyah3198 A quasi-sequal to Bionicle. It's about a factory that makes heroes that fight bad guys. It had some cool concepts, but Lego never wanted the lore to expand beyond the simple adventures in the episodes, so there's not much to it. There were some hints at larger plotlines, but they were never developed beyond a couple of teases. The characters were mostly consistent, but by the end they became pretty interchangable. Breakout, their fourth set of episodes, is widely seen as the peak.
i adore mixels! they were pretty much my introduction to lego and they're great :) one thing i've always liked about mixels was how affordable they were,, i was more fond of the quirky silly creature design rather than the minifigures (which would probably be considered a crime to lego fans lol), and the assortment of blocks you get from buying em was nice
Nexo knights has only four seasons. A fifth season Was planned and lego Sets for the Final season got released, but the last season got canceled. This maid the Fans realy angry, because Clay found out in season 4 that his mom was evil and wanted to go after her, but because the Finale season was canceled the Show endet on a Cliffhanger.
Apparently, the final season got released as a series of comics in the „Lego Nexo Knights Magazine“, which is the worst way they could have released it.
@@nightlunastar Not really. It means that pretty much no one actually knows how the story ends since you need to have read every Nexo Knights Magazine after this point.
It's just a theory but there is a high chance General Ras from Dragon's Rising is a Chima character. He is confirmed to be an outsider of Imperium so he comes from a different realm and is an anthropomorphic tiger which are a tribe in Chima.
I know you said it just a theory and i hate to be those type of people but i can't help it to point out some thing wrong like he dosent look like tbe tigers that were seen in chima
@@MariaLopez-ti4ooi also hate dumb theories but I can see Lord Ras actually being from Chima. It's just a theory, but we just have to wait for Part 2 and to see if it's true ir not. If it is true then it's okay. If it isn't true, then that's fine
My family and I watched Chima religiously, and kept up to date with every twist and turn of the whole plot, e even though we thought practically all of the voice acting was pretty bad😂😂😂
From Playing as Nexo Knights and Lego Chima to colecting Lego mixels as a kid, It hurts to see them be or forgotten or discontinued😞. This was my childhood, I will never forget these memories❤
I mean, if you still like it, you would probably be welcomed by the surprisingly active albeit kinda small fandom. Nexo Knights still has enjoyers even to this day. Kinda crazy.
Uni kitty was a very big show to 7 year old me back then. I remember watching all of the episodes in awe. Uni kitty is a very underrated show in my opinion- people should notice it a lot more
The revelation that Chima and Ninjago existing in the same continuity shellshocked me when I first saw Morro and Lloyd enter it for a few seconds in the show.
The Unikitty cartoon was such a big part of my tween years. It’s what introduced me to the idea of “Fandom” as a whole, and I met a lot of cool artists there! Also: there was shipping. Lots of shipping XD I’m sad it’s considered forgotten by many today, since it gives me a lot of nostalgia and fond memories looking back 💖
Same, but I remembered when I first saw it on CN November 2017, some episodes when it ends, made me mad b/c I wanted to see what happened. Now I have the complete 1st second and watched half of it, I felt the memories. I wish the show kept going. 😢
If you look at popular fandom things like tumblr, discord, and ao3 I know fans still talk about NEXO Knights and they also kind of rewrite the show too! I would know because I’m apart of the active fandom myself. 😭
I got almost every episode of Chima on DVD. I was such a big fan I'd stay up to date on when new episodes were released and then immediately go to the store to buy the DVD with the next 4 episodes. As far as I remember, season 2 was my favourite, because the threat (Which I think was like a scorpion tribe) felt actually threatening, like they would destroy the world if they weren't defeated.
I remember watching the Lego Hero Factory show on Nickelodeon back in 2010. I was 7 going on 8 that year. I grew up on the Lego Ninjago shows, and later, got into Mixels, Chima, and Unikitty over the years. I enjoyed the LEGO Movie and its sequels as they got popular. My favorite Ninjago character was Jay, the blue ninja. I would play Lego video games from time to time. I was introduced to hard rock and heavy metal because of this band called The Fold's hit songs ABOUT Ninjago. I then got into A Day To Remember, Story of the Year, Fall Out Boy, Linkin Park, Papa Roach, P.O.D, Paramore, Miss May I, I Killed The Prom Queen, The Word Alive, I See Stars, Escape The Fate, Falling In Reverse, and many more as well as music genres like trap music, drum and bass, drumstep, glitch hop, electro house, dubstep, and hardstyle. I enjoyed disney's randition of lego shows like the Star Wars and Marvel ones. Times were simpler from 2006-2014.
Fun fact it's confirmed that the Serpentine from Ninjago were actually from the realm Chima and that the Great Devourer might've been their legend beast
Okay, this is going to be a long comment but I thank you so much for bringing these shows up, especially Unikitty. I’ve been a fan of the show ever since 2017 and I’m still shocked to this day of how underrated the show actually is. From the animation, the characters, the humor, the character dynamics (both platonically and romantically), to even the backgrounds, it is really such a hidden gem. Speaking personally, the show really helped me during a really bad time in my childhood. Being bullied a lot during the time at school, Unikitty! really helped me laugh and find happiness. It really helped me pick my chin up and stay strong during such a toxic environment. The show was even responsible for me having a closer relationship with my sisters (we were already close but still), be more positive about things, find happiness during the pandemic, and even meet my future best friend :D. Heck, it even helped me pursue animation as a future career. As for the show itself, another aspect I appreciated about it was it’s positive portrayal of love, especially for siblings, friends, and even the LGBTQ+ community (Foxodile and Frock are great ships btw). It really was ahead of its time for its unique and great representation of both subversive and queer characters. The show ended before season 3 was complete on a rushed over-arching plot and I wish it could be brought back to reach its full potential. The fandom is still alive and well but it still will most likely be an underrated cartoon of CN’s 2010s era. Anyways, I know a lot of people might not read this but I just wanted to get my real feelings out about this show. It could just be a silly cartoon for someone else but at least to me, it means a lot to me :). I’m really happy that a lot of people are talking about how much it meant to them too!
Finally someone who gives Unikitty the attention he deserves I'm 20 and watched shows like Rick and Morty and Friends and the like that I never laughed at made me feel bad, angry, and sad over dirty sexist and racist jokes while Unikitty brought me happiness Take me back to my childhood days when It was comedy just for the sake of laughter and messages in a show that was nice about friendship and family, not a comedy to mock societies and implicit political messages in support of Western political wars and dissemination. Unikitty will remain one of my favorite shows, and one that I will never forget
I loved nexo knights and unikitty, I'm sad they were cancelled, but now that’s it’s been almost teen years since nexo knights started I don’t know how it works have continued. I think unikitty could’ve kept going
There were plans for a season 5&6 actually. Solid concepts. Monstrox was going to become a hologram, Jestro was going to become a knight, Merlok was going to die and be replaced by Ava, Clay was going to interact with his lost brother Fletch (we got a confirmation on the identity of Clay’s sibling), Lance was going to interact with his younger sister Izzy, and I believe Macy was going to become queen. There’s a lot of season 5 concepts disclosed on Tommy Andreason’s twitter, actually! The fandom ate those tweets up. I sometimes wonder if those tweets are what have put the fandom on life support for all this time. The fandom still exists for Nexo Knights- even if it is a little bit harder to find.
I loved Chima, the Hungarian dub was really good. And I loved the Mixel sets, I think they are one of the best „modern" sets, because they were made to be combined with each other.
@@BlazingFire9 Fully agree with that, I think I watched Ninjago up until the Morro season, he is my favourite character by far in any LEGO related series/movie, the scorpion dude from chima is a close second though, I got his set for my birthday not long after it came out. :D
@@janvertonghen14 Chima is very close to golden age Ninjago (2011-2015) in quality. Probably because it was made during that time and by a lot of the same people.
When Nexo Knights first came out was instantly hooked on the franchise as I loved the concept and premise about medieval knights in a futuristic utopia, as a young teen I was so intrigued by it and thought it was so cool, even though looking back on the show as an adult its clearly not as good as I remember. My favourite character is Jestro as I related to his turn character and felt bad for him. I collected the LEGO sets, and the customizable shields which I scanned and used to play the online mobile game which I remember being really fun and still have said LEGO sets shelved to this day. Even though the show is not as good as I remember I still look back at the franchise as enjoyable
I grew up with Ninjago and Nexo Knights on Cartoon Network Comparing the two, Nijago is definitely A LOT better But I loved Nexo Knights too back then and was sad to see it go Sure it's not as good as I remember, but I think, it deserved a second chance My favourite character was Macy. I really related to her struggle of having to be someone she never wanted to be, even if it is pretty basic now that I think ab it
I think the concept is what hooks most of us. It’s got solid concepts even if the execution isn’t excellent all the time. I think the ideas are fascinating and that’s what’s kept the fanbase alive after so many years ( the fandom is still alive, by the way. It is impressive.)
Mixels was the best series Lego had. I collected almost all the Mixels, watched the premiere of specials on CN, and watch reviews on RU-vid. Mixels was my life for 3 years. And its sad to see it forgotten.
Mixels was so hugely unique, and while the writing wasn’t top tier, it really did use the themes of what made Lego so special. You could make anything you want. People still do it to this day! The amount of cooperation in the fandom is quite unheard of, too. Definitely deserves more credit than what it got.
Chima was also referrenced in Ninjago Prime Empire. One of the bevers shows up in black and white in an alleyway whilst Zane is giving his opening lines in Ninjago Confidential.
One thing that got me interested to the legend of China was it’s lore. I honestly thought it was fascinating because I never expected it to be added in a lego TV show. I remember how sad I was after I learned it got canceled and I can’t stop thinking about the potential it had if it continues to air.
Yup! Chima's lore is the most unique out of all Lego themes, with an anti war messaging barely seen in any other unlicensed Lego story. I'm interpreting Chima's storyline into a webcomic because of this!
I feel in love with Unikitty the first time I seen her with my own two eyes. I first liked her in the Lego movie but after realizing she was getting her own show. It was just amazing. loved the series.
Man, nexo knights and legends of chima was such a blast from the past. I generally forgot they existed, thank you from the bottom of my heart for bringing back childhood memories that were lost in time❤
Ahh, Chima was a great show and I (or rather my sister, I got the Ninjago ones) had quite a few sets of them, we enjoyed watching both shows and were really sad when Chima was discontinued, to this day I need to rewatch Chima like I did with Ninjago (which I stopped watching after Season 7 when the Ninjas got a change of appearance). Got even a few books from Chima. I wish they continued Chima in expense of the other shows, I think it was far superior (except Ninjago of course).
Yeah, I stopped watching ninja go for that reason. The creators also seemed to have gotten lazy, as now the episodes are all like five minutes long and in ridiculous and repetitive scenarios
Please do watch it! Alot of my favorite seasons are after season 7. Yes it may take a while to get used to the new designs, afterall the original designs are what we grew up watching, but for me who disliked the redesigns at first, ended up loving them more than the original. In fact I think it matches their personality more (that being said I still can't get used to zane's human form design) and it showed that they grew up since season 7 (there's a time skip between s7 and s8). Also season 8 and after took a bit of a darker more mature theme so if you're into that, you might like it. That being said I do see some valid criticisms regarding the storywritings and characters but I personally didn't mind it that much.
I did not forget Nexo Knights. I discovered it after becoming a fan of Ninjago, although I don’t remember much about the show because I was more interested in Ninjago and watched more of it than Nexo Knights. This video also made me remember the Mixels. I remembered watching those shorts, but I never knew the name of the show.
Unikitty was an amazing show that I still love to this day! I think it was overlooked by a lot of people because it was a kid show and people thought it was just another teen titans go. But honestly it’s so much more than that, it was funny and charming, and had AMAZING CHARACTERS! The main antagonists Master Frown and (sorta) Brock were so great! Unikitty had a lot of beautiful backgrounds (LIKE SOME OFTHE FROWNTOWN BACKGROUNDS WERE SO COOL) and even some hardcore scenes! Obviously not all the episodes were a gem but were still good and humorous. Anyways that’s my rant about an underrated show that deserved more (in my opinion). And if someone’s reading this, I suggest you give it a shot :D!
I swear the bad scheduling for the show and them literally advertising the show as *”BEHIND THE CREATORS OF TTG”* despite only having one or two members on there stained its potential 😭.
NGL, UniKitty getting her own show made sense considering how most of the other main cast seems to fit in a different LEGO theme (the exceptions being Batman plucked directly from DC and Benny being directly repurposed from LEGO Space). Emmet/Rex, President Business, and Bad Cop seem to fit the LEGO City theme, Wyldstyle/Lucy and Vitruvius seem to fit with the Minifigures theme, Metalbeard is built off the Pirates theme, etc. With this, this is probably an in-universe LEGO theme, which could explain the spare bricks in Finn's basement. The only other outliers would be Watevra Wanabi and Sweet Mayhem as the former is a brick-built character and the latter is a minidoll that does not conform to the LEGO Friends design standards.
I actually really enjoyed Nexo Knights when younger and, my greatest wish was actually they gave us an ending before it was too late. As I knew it wasn't that popular and it'll meet a sad cancelled demise Mixels was something I'd watch on a school night, and I'd occasionally watch Unikitty while doing other stuff.
