@@strangehermitman7898 Lego set prices across the board are not justified, their price increase is not justified. And before someone makes the excuse of the "current events" bumping price of everything up, let me remind you that Lego functions of a far larger net profit with their products than the amount it costs them to create and ship their products. They have more than enough money to survive and thrive, but that isnt enough for them, hence the constant price increases, despite the quality and quantity not following that price increase, and by now it has come back to slap them in the face cause the prices alone turn a lot of people away from Lego product purchases in general, which will ultimately lead to them loosing way more money than if they just werent so greedy..
This wave is amazing, one of the best. The race car is amazing. If you watched Ninjago you would probably like it more. The spinners are cool Ninjago City Markets is amazing, with incredible minifigures that fans have wanted for years, and some unexpected cool ones You're too hard on this wave
Honestly, (and absolutely no hate in this comment) he is sick of mechs, sick of dragons, sick of race cars and that is kind of the entirety of ninjago sets. I think he is tired of ninjago as a theme because he does not see the story behind them and they are repetitive.
@@brendanplays3942 Additionally, I think he has mentioned numerous times in other videos that he does not like how Ninjago has a monopoly on non-licenced action themes with only 1-2 along side it at a time for the last 7 years. An example of this is when Ninjago had a medieval subtheme after nexo-knights ended, preventing a castle theme of having a chance to exist.
The Ninjago City sets always have amazing mini-builds that I borrow for my own builds. The best part, of course, is the flushing toilet that uses a DOTS hanger piece to form the perfect toilet seat and (finally!) a white or tan recolor of the Technic small curved panel to represent toilet paper! So glad we will finally have a perfect piece to represent toilet paper and paper towels. Also, I have to agree with you about the Lime-green tower sticking out like a sore thumb in this set. Even though I generally love Lime green (even in the summer wave of boxy LEGO City buildings), it definitely doesn't work in this set. When you build this, please do record a video showing all of your Ninjago City sets connected in a few different ways. I think it will be starting to look like a real city by now.
Yeah the Heatwave dragon confuses me. I love the quadrapedal design, more a wyrm type thing and it looks stellar. The transformation is just... a posture change, from what I can tell. I like the way it looks, it's very unique, but to call it a transforming dragon is such a stretch. Still love it
I talked to the Designer of the Ninajgo City Gardens and asked him to give us a Cyrus Borg minifigure in the next Ninjago City set! So glad they really did! ☺
It would be amazing if one of the unknown merged realms was Bionicle, seeing how Ninjago had tons of Bionicle references in the past sets, heck make Ninjago sets with Bionicle characters in them, maybe even be part of a future season that will continue the G1 storyline, like make Velika the villain. The merged realms concept brings a lot of possibilities. A neat bit of info, Racer Seven with the Tahu torso print is actually holding a Toa Metru Vakama set (or any Toa of Fire set between 2004 and 2009), since the microfig is in Dark Red and not regular red.
Pretty sure they’re bringing back Chima since that should be considered a canon realm bc s5 and an episode title with chima. Ultra Agents characters were also in TOE as elemental masters so if bionicle comes back too it wont be very suprising
@@NASgamer6 Those were already part of the world. Bionicle however was mostly relegated to set references and the basic notion that Ninjago took a lot of story and character element pointers from Bionicle. It would be best to finally solidify that connection with an actual realm for Bionicle within Ninjago and a more substantial representation in sets and even storyline. Bionicle and Ninjago have a lot in common and a lot of story potential to make with each other, far more than Chima and Ultra Agents.
Omg! In all my 14 years of loving LEGO NINJAGO, I never once though we would EVER get a Cyrus Borg. The markets are amazing. Shame it’s coming out while I’m trying to save up for a PC. But that won’t stop me ;)
Also detective zane was in an episode of prime empire when the wu cru who didn’t go in prime empire tried to find Milton dire just in case he WASN’T unagami and zane acted and spoke like a third person detective until he was captured by the mechanic then pixal took over and did the same even though at first she found it annoying but to honour zane when he was captured she did it anyway and it was a really cheesy and stupid episode in my opinion (stupid in a good way)
Thinking of getting Sora's Transforimng Mech Bike + Arin and nya;s Dragon battle. Not sure about any others yet. The new figures look great. The new 2-piece Ninja Wraps are a nice change. The Villains look great and so does Bany Ryu.
I’m going to get ALL the sets with the dragon energy cores (gimmick sets included) and the bonus sets will be the destiny’s bounty, sora’s mech and the imperium dragon hound (the “bonus” sets being sets which don’t include the dragon energy cores)
"Long before time had a name, the First Spinjitzu Master created Ninjago. Using Four Elemental Weapons, but when he passed a Dark Presence sought out to collect them all: Lord Garmadon. So I Sensei Wu his brother, sought out 4 Ninja to colect them first." -Master Wu.
Honestly this wave is really great. for some of the sets the prices suckkk especially for the bigger sets like the bounty and Jay's dragon. My favorites however would be Sora's mech, it has all 3 new characters and a beautiful color scheme, the legs just move back to create the bike form. Second place would be Zane's car, I just love that's it can spin with those ball pieces, and third place would be Jay's dragon, love that the villain finally gets a decent build, it's just the price that sucks. The $20 set has to be the best when it comes to value tho
Jays dragon looks really good- Kai’s is ok. The bounty is something I would get but it’s missing the dragon head at the front- which is a little disappointing. Have to see what the interior is like.
Justin and his hate for the lime green color 😂 Great video, I love that the Bionicle fan has a "Bionicle" figure and the packaging, that toilet might be the best Lego toilet of all time, you should do a list on the top 20 Lego toilets as an April fools joke 😂
i'm definetly getting the one with the dragon and mech, yes there are alot of those, but i guenuetly like packages where you have both sides of a conflict on a somewhat equal footing
When I saw the toilet I immediately thought of taking the white tank top torso with brown dirt on it that was used in one of the TMNT sets a long time ago and putting it on one of the Ninjago figures and have him swimming in the water by the poopchute 😂 I already dug that torso out of my collection lol
Finally the older hood piece is returning, because the new one worked for evil characters like Emperor Palpatine but not for Luke Skywalker. It'd be great if they could co-exist like the two combed hairpieces.
So far I translated "steeper wisdom" on the sign with the smoke with the mustache, near it "pet shop", under it "turn", the box of take out food says "enjoy", then the poster with the borg tower says "rebuild"
The lime green tower is borg tower. They just recolored it and changed it for some reason my guess is to make it match better and to add more color which they like to do with the ninjago city sets
So let's see what my list is looking like: -Imperium Dragon Hunter Hound (finaly a lego ninjago set that doesn't feel like you are just wasting money on a giant motocycle) -Kai and Ras's Car and Bike Battle (Allright is this just lego's scheme to make money by forcing older people to buy 4+ plus sets becoes of cheaper to get minifigures) -Nya's Dragon Power Drift (I really need to update my Nya minifigure) -Kai and Rapton's Temple Battle (funny enough we could just take Ras's weapon from 4+ set and give it to Rapton) -and praying that Camille and Miss Demeanor are going to have good prices on bricklink
YOU DON'T KNOW HOW MANY TIMES I HAVE MADE A CUSTOM CYRUS BORG MINIFIGURE! I HAVE BEEN WANTING AN OFFICAIL ONE FOR SO LONG! IT'S FINALLY HERE I NEVER BUY THE NINJAGO CITY SETS BUT SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY! But brick link is still another option to just get the minifigure. But I woke up to this news and was very happy.
In my opinion, this wave is mostly ok, but there's still some sets I wouldn't mind getting, mainly the Transforming Mech Bike & Ninjago City Markets. However, I'm not too pleased that the markets costs £320
So the sets just got released like they were revealed them and you know something LEGO didn’t miss any details or anything Lego gave us what we wanted everyone send a big thanks to Lego 😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁
I like how his first impression always like he not interesting in the sets and may not buy it but then later buy the sets and actually love them later lol
@@ClassicStudStudios you do realize that Toxikita from Ultra Agents is Tox, Elemental master of poison, who looks like the show also Mr. Pale is Invizable also from Ultra Agents
@@bengianturco7926 you know I’m aware of that right? Everyone knows that, but all the EMS are different from their show counterparts, changes to the printing and face prints with some design changes
The lime green building is a borg store, hence the borg store employee minifig This wave is great, but the prices suck. I’m most likely going to get the markets and all the ninja the cheapest way possible
The figures in the markets are a bit weak for this price imo. Detective Zane would need a continous print down on the legs, blacksmith kai is a recycle of old parts, I would have preferred Fugidove over the discount firefly, Hounddog has dualmolded legs in the show, Cyrus Borg needs legs that match his jacket, Racer Seven should have had her actual race suit and Gale Gossip has the wrong hair. C'mon Lego
