LEGO Nexo Knights Magazine Issue 02
LEGO Nexo Knights Magazine Issue 02

Earlier this year, the launch of the fantasy-based Castle theme Nexo Knights went beyond the colorful LEGO toy sets. As with most products nowadays, it took the multimedia approach, maximizing everything from animated television series to mobile game apps to print publications. The latter include monthly glossy magazines that contain comics, pull-out posters, fact files, puzzles, and more to keep little (and not-so-little) knights entertained. But the best part is that they always come with exclusive LEGO minifigures or mini-builds. Unfortunately, the new LEGO Nexo Knights Magazines are only currently released within Europe. So, for the rest of the world, here's a little glimpse...

Strangely enough, I started with the second issue, which was given to me by my tita (aunt). I tried to steer away from Nexo Knights at first because I wasn't really planning to start a new collection, but obviously, I gave in irresistibly. The free gift in this issue is Lance's Hover Horse.

The build is a simplified version of the hover horses found in the bigger box sets. Gone are the color cues indicating which knight owns what horse. Nonetheless, it still looks cute. But it feels empty without a rider, so naturally, I sought for one. Good thing I found a good deal in eBay, with free delivery and all.

The epic gift (that I nearly missed) in the first issue is a Lance Richmond minifigure, complete with his lance weapon and a knightly feast. Not only that, this is the first time a Nexo Knight hairpiece was released officially (Robin doesn't count because he's just a Junior Knight, and Macy's pony tail doesn't count either because she can't wear that without the helmet). I wonder if they'll do the same with the others.

See? The Hover Horse looks perfect with Lance on it! Everything seems shiny and fancy, befitting a Richmond.

The third issue puts the spotlight on young Robin Underwood and his horse. Nexo Knights is a fusion of medieval and futuristic tech, so expect a lot of horses. The free gift in this issue is a bit generous for the final build seems like it came from the usual LEGO polybags. It's a bit reminiscent of Robin's Mini Fortrex [30372].

Now for a cuteness overload, here's Lance and Robin on their high-tech rides. Is this a race or what?

The LEGO sets in the next issues are not as grand but they're still interesting and fun. The Globlin Spiders and the Lava Warrior all look cool hot. The Knight Racer has a bit of a promise as well. Maybe it will look better once a Nexo Knight (Aaron, anyone?) rode it. Here are the rest of the magazines and the free gifts:

Another cool feature of the LEGO Nexo Knights Magazines is the inclusion of exclusive scannable Nexo Powers which can be used in the LEGO Nexo Knights: Merlok 2.0 game app.

I really love Nexo Knights. That's why I'm always looking forward each month for the release of the latest issue. And when I do, rest assured that I will immediately share it with you guys!...

LEGO nexo knights magazine issue 10

LEGO Nexo Knights Issue 10 The LEGO Nexo Knights Magazine Issue 10 is currently on sale, and there's more than one free gift! Before everything else, I would like to apologize for two things. First, for the brief hiatus. Life happened . I'll still try to blog as often as possible though. I'll try my best. Second, for this very tardy post. Issue 10 came out last 16 November but for some reason our local shops don't have it. I have to literally travel downhill to purchase one in the big supermarket. Fortunately, they still have a few on the shelf. And to my surprise, it's a bumper issue! That means it's £1 more expensive. But good thing my bonus toy is a Lava Warrior, so that basically offsets the extra pound. And who says no to army building? I wonder what the others got... Lava Warrior Issue 10's free gift is insanely cool! Ladies and gentlemen, the Mech Bot! Mech Bot The Mech Bots are featured heavily in this issue's comics. They were worn by the Nexo K...

LEGO star wars magazine: issue 15

LEGO Star Wars Magazine Issue 15 LEGO Star Wars Magazine Issue 15 has just been released , and this month's free gift is the iconic AT-AT! The All Terrain Armored Transport, or AT-AT for short, is a four-legged combat walker used by the Empire's  ground forces . It first appeared   in The Empire Strikes Back , then prominently featured in Star Wars Rebels , and, more recently, also seen in The Force Awakens (as background wreckage). Older versions seems to be in the  Rogue One: A Star Wars Story , but they may (or may not) be under a different name ( UPDATE: They are apparently called All Terrain Armored Cargo Transport or AT-ACT ).  Being one of the most famous symbols of the Empire's military might, it's no surprise that the AT-AT is the microbuild of Issue 15 . AT-AT So far, the AT-AT is my favorite magazine microbuild (next to the  Naboo Starfighter). I simply love its minimalist look. With only 48 brick pieces, it's a wonder that it accuratel...
