So in a recent Q&A, Doc Wyatt said “of Karloff, Griffin turner, BoloBo, and Gravis, one of them is no longer living”. Now a few years back he also said “of Shade and BoloBo, one is dead”.

Now, Bolobo is in both posts, I think his inclusion in both, Imma say BoloBo is the one who’s dead.

I believe Gravis, Karloff, and Griffin are alive, and Mr.Pale, Tox, Chamille Neuro ARE alive because we see them in the flesh.

As for Jacob and ash, and Skyler. Skyler is confirmed alive by comic con, Jacob is seen on a poster saying “new album” in s4 which is present text implying he’s alive. And Ash obviously has Cinder as a replacement, imma say he’s dead.

So out of all our elemental master friends, Ash and BoloBo are no more. But what do you think?

This moment right here is what endeared the ninja to me, this moment will always make me smile. This scene sensei Personality and made him more of an Iroh figure to me which is a positive in my book.

Obviously we got more Zane being Zane ( autistic probably lol ) and the team just having fun. Season 1 also dose a fantastic job making the team feel like teammates, friends and brothers. THIS is part of why Ninjago has stayed a part of my life.

Also showed Cole being a fan of music, and while not a permanent stay of character I wish they had him stick with it, maybe have him uses these bongos on the bounty at one point.

Anyway love this scene!. And to close off what was the moment that endeared the ninja for you? 💙❤️💛🖤🤍

Now this title isn’t to say every small lego set is a hidden gem, BUT I do believe that there is a beauty to many of Lego’s smaller offerings of past and perhaps present. Small lego could be anything from a creature, location or vehicle!. The possibilities are endless really and I think they brought some of Lego’s best.

So many different options, and when we were kids little options were what I’m sure many of us got because it’s all we or our parents could afford, and back in the day at least imo it seemed lego did their best to fill out these little Lego sets with as many parts, characters, and story potential as possible. You could get a lot out of one set, one complete story, or a new chapter for your world, a new beast to concur or a treasure to find, or a place to live and eat and rest.

And of course the parts included would, as I’m sure for many of you would at some point be taken to make something else. And of course there was beauty in the official alternative builds for all this tiny lego, at least when lego did them.

Well that’s all I have to say, what are your thoughts and YOUR favourite small lego sets?!🍻

For those who don’t recall, Ultra Vilolet had a show in s9 where she hunted those known to ally with the ninja, in this case this lady snitched on ronin for some cash ( I get the irony lol ) and she sounds so proud of herself

So this says “tour” which kinda suggests he’s actively or recently been doing it, meaning he’s alive, now Teelk has the element of sound now however it’s not a leap to say Jacob gave up his powers and retired

Some of y’all are horny for Tox I’ve SEEN it, and I know the is subs humour so this is for you😆.

I simple question, who are YOUR favourite Lego original characters, could be any non licensed CMF ( they used to have bios ), or characters from original themes like monster fighters, space police, Ninjago ect, OR original characters form lego Star Wars like Jek-14 or jedi bob. As long as it wasn’t made explicitly by a third party property it’s fair game

Okay so no secret that Ninjago is a bit different when it comes to its elements, and as many of said when it comes to dragons rising they don’t like a lot of the new powers, wether it’s because they feel too similar to old ones or are so far removed from what the elements are. So basically this discussion is about which elements make any lick of sense to me and justify their existence and which don’t, starting off with

ELEMENTS THAT WORK!.

🔥fire , 💦 water, 🌬️ wind, 🪨 earth.

Okay now these 4 are self explanatory. These are the traditional core 4 elements of…well most places really. Their existence don’t need to be justified at all. Now the way Ninjago has laid out their element system, it’s clear that aspects that could be controlled by one element, are normally made a separate element, so with that…

🧊ice, ⚡️lightning.

The existence of ice and lightning as separate elements are justified by what I just mentioned, they could be controlled by water and wind respectively and are just made separate because of Ninjago’s power system, these work for me.

🍎 gravity, 🍀 nature, 🎼 sound.

I believe these are justified in a different sense, gravity, nature ( duh ), and sound are these that can be found in the natural world even if humanity never existed, and nature is another kind of earth, these work for me!.

💡light, 👥shadow, ⚖️balence

Light and shadow aren’t “traditional elements” however, with Ninjago’s whole “good VS evil”, “light VS shadow” aspect, I think it works for Ninjago specifically, no issues with these two. Balence ( hypothetically ) is a middle point of the two, although that’s not really how it’s shown.

☀️heat, 🚬 smoke.

These two ( even if I think heat is kinda dumb ) fallow the thing about certain aspects of elements being made into their OWN separate elements, they work for me.

🛠️ metal, 🗿quake.

Now I think quake is DUMB but same logic of it being something that belongs to earth made into its own elements, metal is about the same although when I think of it it’s more of the ATLA way of thinking, so in my head metal works.

🏴‍☠️amber.

This one is a VERY specific case because it’s man made canonically so…it works for me only because it’s man made.

Okay that’s about all the elements I think WORK and make some sense for existing.

ELEMENTS THAT DONT MAKE SENSE TO ME

⏳speed, ☄️ propulsion, 🧲fusion , 💿technology.

Now I know some of these only existed AFTER the merge so you could argue similar logic that I used for amber, and admitly you CAN find speed ( being fast ) and propulsion in try natural world, I suppose. But these ones don’t work for me, there not the WORST offenders and I think people could justify the former, and maybe even the latter.

👥FIGMENT, 🔮mind, 👠 form, 📏size, 🫧 tension

All 4 of these are just straight up super powers and I don’t think there’s much justification for them, although I’ll admit if you can find a way to justify form OR size, then I think the other can be justified in the same sense as water and ice, or fire and smoke .

Surface tension could work with the logic of being a aspect of water?. But it still feels dumb especially cause it’s just bubbles 🫧. Shockwaves is the same vain as tech or fusion for me.

TIME AND LIFE.

Ya so…these are pretty complex powers and I don’t have a good grasp on them, admittedly.

Well that’s all the powers unless I missed one, would love productive and pleasant conversation about what you lot think as I think it’s an interesting topic.

Just a little discussion about the characters ( minus family ) that are closest to Lloyd, imo based on scenes and storylines they’ve shared.

Now obviously I’m not saying it’s a “top ten greatest hits” of lego or anything, but I DO firmly believe it’s a great set, a great toy and one I think is overlooked in favour of other 3n1 sets.

1: I think the set is, while not perfect is a really good build ( if a bit messy when it comes to the mountain ) and still holds up pretty well. I think all 3 builds are worth your time and each one stands apart.

2: I think it’s a full adventure and dose a great job setting the start, middle and end of an adventure with the mining aspect, and I think it’s the best “cabin” set lego has done save for the a frame cabin and new friends glamping cabin.

I won’t pretend im not biased but I also just think it’s a good set, a decent display set and most importantly…a great toy with lots of good parts of kids to make their own things with, which I feel 3n1 has lost a bit with its objects and animals taking centre stage.

But that’s just my opinion:D really I wanted to highlight a set I think deserves some compliments that isn’t licensed or display slop

Obviously one of the things I’ve seen people talk about is the lack of soldiers, BUT it appears that all the guards share Pippin’s torso. SO my recommendation is to replace their torsos with plain black, maybe get these arms and legs, change the hips and you got yourself a few more gondor men!.
