LEGO nexo knights magazine issue 11

LEGO Nexo Knights Magazine Issue 11 LEGO Nexo Knights Magazine Issue 11 is now available, and it includes two gifts! Or so I thought. (Sort of) bad news first. The advertised free gift  Sand Tornado Nexo Power is printed in the magazine itself. It is scannable, yes, but it's on paper. For those like me who expected it printed on a LEGO piece, we have to look elsewhere. I guess it's just rational to look forward to one after receiving the Minify Surprise Nexo Power in physical form three issues ago. But that doesn't matter, because the real star of this issue is the Pilot Bot! Pilot Bot I just simply adore these cute little Squirebots! And having another official variant is a big check in my Nexo Knights list. I always enjoy building Squirebots. I find their design really ingenious, in the sense that the small pieces, both in size and number, produce such charming minions. And the diastema (sorry, gap teeth) never fails to induce a smile. The Pilot Bot can be appreciated mo...

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 nexo knights magazine issue 09

LEGO Nexo Knights Magazine Issue 09 The LEGO Nexo Knights Magazine Issue 09 has just been released. And as promised, it's a profusion of free gifts, including a Bat Flyer and Ninjago trading cards! Just like the previous issue, Issue 09 is overloaded with giveaways, specifically the Bat Flyer LEGO toy, a Ninjago booster pack, and a limited edition Ninjago card. All that's lacking is a  Nexo Power, but that's okay. The  brilliant strategy of introducing the Ninjago Trading Card Game in the LEGO Magazines is still ongoing. Just like last month, another rare card was included. A  genius move, I believe, to tease the desire to complete the whole collection. It almost worked for me, almost, for now. Ninjago Trading Cards A Limited Edition Team Ninja golden foil card is i ncluded in every Issue 09 . And with the special card guaranteed in every booster pack, I got a Jay & Cole silver foil card. So, by purchasing the two issues of  LEGO Nexo Knights Magazine , I instant...

LEGO nexo knights magazine issue 08

LEGO Nexo Knights Magazine Issue 08 The LEGO Nexo Knights Magazine Issue 08 is hot off the press and it's overloaded with lots of free gifts, including a Kid Clay minifigure and Ninjago trading cards! In last issue's preview, it was promised that Issue 08 will include a limited edition Kid Clay minifigure, a training bot, and an exclusive Nexo Power. All these were neatly placed in the small foil pack. But wait, there's more. An exclusive Ninjago Trading Card and a booster pack were given away as well. Ninjago Trading Cards I believe that it's a brilliant strategy to introduce the Ninjago Trading Card Game in the LEGO Magazines. I also think that it's a genius move to put rare cards in the mix to tickle the market's (especially kids') need to collect them.  Included in every Issue 08 is a Limited Edition NRG Cole golden foil card. There's also a special card guaranteed in every booster pack, and I got an Action Master Chen silver foil card in mine. So, b...

nexo knight racers: a serendipitous LEGO encounter

Knight Racers Ask and you shall receive... I know this verse is usually a metaphor for prayer, but sometimes in life, you just have to do it literally. As I went to check my local convenience store for the latest issue of the  LEGO Nexo Knights Magazine, I noticed that there were detached free gifts from the previous issues sitting on the shelf. These are the Knight Racers from copies of Issue 07, which were already returned to the publisher. Nicely, I asked the sales assistant if I could just buy them. She consulted her supervisor and they have decided to simply give them all to me, as they will just discard them anyway. I know this incident is beyond routine, but I can't deny that it is indeed fortuitous. For the Knight Racer, I said in one of my posts that the vehicle could do better, but now that it belongs to a fleet, it definitely is. This small encounter is a reminder that sometimes, all you have to do is ask...

LEGO nexo knights magazine: issue 07

LEGO Nexo Knights Magazine Issue 07 LEGO Nexo Knights Magazine Issue 07 has just been released, and this month's wicked gift is a Globlin Catapult. Jestro made sure that the Nexo Knights are in for a sizzling surprise in their seventh issue. He has built a mean machine that launches the nasty Globlins through the air. The Globlin Catapult is not just a free LEGO toy in this issue, but also a featured evil weapon in the epic adventure comic. This month's free gift is very reminiscent of the small Chaos Catapult [70311] set, minus the monstrous vehicle (and everything else). And instead of lava stones, Globlins are the ammo of choice in this stationary weapon. I think it is more logical to use Globlins balls in this foil set, but the use of Globlin discs with slide shoe rounds delivered the promised fun. The inclusion of pyramid ridged tiles in the frame is a very nice finishing detail (or maybe I just simply adore those brick pieces). Globlin Catapult All in all, the Globlin Cat...

take on the world with carpark north's unbreakable music video (LEGO nexo knights season 2 theme song)

The official LEGO YouTube page has just uploaded the music video of Unbreakable by Carpark North. The song serves as the theme song for the second season of LEGO Nexo Knights animated television series. The music video fused the real world with the Kingdom of Knighton. It showed the Danish electronic rock band playing, and gradually turning their instruments, and later on themselves into LEGO bricks. Clips of our beloved Nexo Knights characters were also included in the music video. Overall, with all the LEGO effects, this is a super cool music video. And as a bonus, get ready to scan a Nexo Power (from the band's electric guitar)!

LEGO nexo knights magazines

LEGO Nexo Knights Magazine Issue 02 Earlier this year, t he 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 ...

LEGO nexo knights: merlok 2.0 robin's workshop update guide (sort of)

LEGO Nexo Knights: Merlok 2.0 Update 1.3.2 LEGO Nexo Knights: Merlok 2.0 has recently released update 1.3.2. The official descriptions of the new contents are: Boost your powers in battle through crafting. Win, collect and craft LEGO studs. New powers and ways to level up await. What is the meaning of this? This means that Robin's workshop is now online! On a face value, the new update seems a bit weird, so I searched online for some sort of guide but none seems to be posted yet. I then proceeded to explore the updated game blindly, and here are what I've learned. Remember that I am no pro-gamer, this is just me attempting to make sense of it all. The update prior to this one allowed us to collect LEGO studs of various types and colors by completing different mission challenges. But it did not tell us what the studs are exactly for. Now it was revealed that the young builder Robin will use these studs to make gems ( tada! ). Robin's Workshop Different studs are required to ...
