I wish they stopped putting lloyd in like every set. I think it would’ve made this set way more desirable if they put a remade karlof, or legacy 2 zane, or even chen or an anacondrai warrior in it instead of yet another lloyd.
The production line would have made to many Lloyds and told the designers that he had to be in a certain number of sets, the designers are not to blame.
@@robbiesharp6513 who said it was the designers fault? It was probably higher ups that decided lloyd's popularity made putting him in all these sets worthwhile based on some market analyst
@JustThomas I mean Lloyd is supposed to be the main character. I’m not saying you have to like him, but I’m not sure what you were expecting when he became the green ninja.
If you count, more often than not Kai comes in more sets than anyone and it really annoys me. Even if the season’s main character is someone else, Kai always has more figs in each wave.
I don't think individual themes would be revived for the sake of legacy sets. Legacy works for ninjago because the fanbase is stupid big and kids want older sets (the show helps a lot here). I do think that a Lego "Legacy" theme that redesigns sets from multiple dead themes could work. So there wouldn't be a specific revival of a single theme, instead they would bring stuff back from multiple themes
The new canopy piece looks amazing to me, it really helps to round out the shaping and the color scheme of the model. Also, the legacy golden Kai figure is great in my opinion!
The Boulder Blaster was a major stand out for me in Tournament of Elements. I'm disappointed I didn't get the original, but I'm happy I got this version
Ikr it's awesome,I just got it and while I was building it I was so enjoyed, even when I played with it a bit, it was sooo awesome, Def one of my fav set of this wave
@@thebrickstudio9218 I feel like this set has one of the best side builds ever. It just works so well with the set and it inspires play, even proposing you make your own mechanisms to build as targets
This is a true legacy set, it improves apon the original in every way definitely buying this set. I am going to buy the tournament of elements set and Lloyds jungle raider. I would say jay's storm fighter and Zane's Titan mech embody that true legacy feel,the thunder raider destiny's bounty and the monastery.
LEGO is really making some poor decisions when it comes to Ninjago minifigs (lack of printing, who to include, reused prints), but a lot of the builds are phenomenal!
I always felt like Cole's vehicles were some of the best from the beginning. The Tread Assault, the Earth Driller, the Rock Roader, and this. They just integrated good play functions into good designs so well.
Not so long ago I started to appreciate Ninjago flying machines. I love the Sky Shark and Destiny's Wing soo much. This one will be added too. It has a very WW2 plane feel to it. Kinda looks like those machines from Tale Spin not gonna lie xD
6:16 The circle in that windshield piece makes me think of some sort of space stasis pod - I could imagine a lot of space themed custom builds, specifically.
It would be cool to have a silver Karloff in his metal form. It would be highly sought after, would give the character to newer fans, and wouldn't devalue the original figure. If anything the old fig would gain value as he could be displayed in both forms.
I would have liked lloyd to be karlof, we already got tons of jungle lloyd. Eyezor should have been one of those anacondrai soldiers, maybe even the snake version
The Roto jet looks amazing, but I would have liked it that instead that it came with Jungle Lloyd, Eyezor and the small jail build, I would have prefered that it came with ANOTHER anacondrai bad guy, some elemental master (preferely Karlof of Jay) with the Factory suit and instead of the jail i would prefer some kind of bridge from where cole jumps into the roto jet, overall amazing set but these changes would have made the set so much better and it would't have to change the price
I was never huge on Ninjago, but I always loved the original Boulder Blaster (but never got it, still). This one is so much better, and such good value too.
I stopped watching ninjago at like, season two maybe? But even after not watching the show for so long, I can definitely say I love this build. The design compared to the original is even better. Some legacy sets like kais car aren’t that good, but this is great.
Fun fact, you can actually lock the play feature by loading one of the bolts into that tire rim piece that shoots them. it's nice to do this if you get the set to just display it
Haha, I wasn't looking when JANG put the box down and I heard it hit the floor. I thought he threw the box away like that crazy Transformers toy reviewer, emgo316! For the record, I mean that affectionately, I'm an emgo fan.
They should have included another bad guy, like Zulu or just a random minion and Karlof, and maybe should have made legacy suit but it’s still a great set!
Should’ve been a new legacy Zane for cole to save, would match the show. And the bad guy should’ve been Chen or clous to go with the other season 4 set
I was a fan of ninjago a few years back when it first started and left after the fourth season and ever since, I have just not been able too get used to the new faces that they give the characters
