More LEGO 2017 Promotional Pod Polybags Revealed

Posted on July 6, 2017 by Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

Yesterday, there were a lot of LEGO promotion products that were revealed over on Bouwsteenjes and one type of product that were in shown various themes were the pod polybags. The pod polybag was first introduced with the Batman Battle Pod (5004929) from The LEGO Batman Movie and LEGO has expanded the idea to other themes.

I’ve already talked about one for The LEGO Ninjago Movie with Kai’s Dojo Pod (5004916) but there are also ones for LEGO Nexo Knights and LEGO Friends.

For the LEGO Nexo Knights Armor Pod (5004914), there is a knight minifigure along with a sword and shield as accessories. I do like in front of the pod, you have the Classic Space logo on the badge.

The other pod polybag is the Ski Pod (5004929) for LEGO Friends. The minidoll included in this set is Emma in her ski outfit which appears to be exclusive to this pod. For the accessories, there are some skis, a helmet, and a trophy.

There are no information on when or how you will be able to obtain these LEGO pod polybags at this time but I’ll let you know when the details are available.

LEGO Nexo Knights Battle Pod Coming

Posted on April 21, 2017 by Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

It looks like we have a new LEGO Nexo Knights Battle Pod polybag coming soon. Just2Good over on Twitter has posted what appears to be a Battle Pod similar to The LEGO Batman Movie one but with a color swap. The Battle Pod also includes a Knight along with some accessories including a sword and a Nexo Power. There’s no word when we expect to see it released as a promotion but we know one is coming.

Rumors of LEGO Nexo Knights Being Cancelled

Posted on April 19, 2017 by Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

Here’s a very interesting rumor coming out of Brickset regarding the future of the LEGO Nexo Knights theme. They are reporting that Blocks magazine has gotten information that the theme is “being cancelled and the summer sets may not even be released.” There was no source given and I haven’t heard anything about the theme being cancelled from the usual sources so I am somewhat skeptical about it.

We did see the summer 2017 sets at the New York Toy Fair so we know there are sets coming but that also doesn’t mean much. This could also mean the wave will have a short shelf life and be fazed out, similar to LEGO BIONICLE and LEGO Mixels in their last waves. These sets were only sold at LEGO Brand Stores, [email protected], and some specialty stores.

The LEGO Nexo Knights theme was the latest “Big Bang” theme and usually has a three year run with the exception of LEGO Ninjago which surpassed everyone’s expectations and is going on their seventh year. If the theme is actually cancelling after two years, it’s speculation that it not performing as well as LEGO expected.

For me personally, I think the theme is pretty cool and I really dig the color schemes which reminded me of the Ice Planet 2002 theme. There were also lots of new parts introduced, the shield piece for example, which fans liked and gave tons of inspiration for MOCs.

Again, these are only rumors until there’s definite proof the theme is being cancelled so don’t panic just yet. We should start hearing rumors about winter sets in a few months so we’ll see if LEGO Nexo Knights will have another wave being released next year.

What do you guys think? Do you or your kids enjoy the theme?

Update: LEGO Designer Mark Stafford has confirmed that this rumor is false.
