I also purchased Battle Suit Lance – who comes with 5 shields. Of these I had 2 which I had previously scanned from video clips on. I bought three packs, and got 14 different shields. Red: seen in videos over the last 12 months Yellow: available with some 2016 NEXO Knight sets Green: Also available with in 2017 sets Mauve: New and exclusive to this wave, at this time. If you know where they are from, please let me know. The unmarked powers are likely to be difficult to otherwise find ‘in the wild.’ Some may have appeared in comics, LEGOLand parks, toys such as the NEXO foam weapons, or during trade shows, but I have been unable to establish their providence. The Mauve marks shows powers making their debut in this series. The green oval shows powers that are new in the 2017 Nexo knight sets (including the Battle Suit Sets). You also get a checklist, showing all 35 shields in this wave – the red oval shows powers available in 2016 videos, and yellow shows powers available from sets in 2016. Some of the ways in which this new piece can be used have been explored by Tim Johnson, over at New Elementary. It allows connections by clips to a 3.18mm bar, as well as via plates or using a technic bar down the middle. This is a six sided piece, with 3 sets of 2×2 studs. A mere hint as to the geometric possibilities of the NEXOgon Then there is in the absence of a better name, the Nexogon. Different heroes can use any power.Īs far as other pieces are concerned, there is a 2 x 2 tile in dark blue, two light bluish grey 1 x 2 plates with clips on the side, one 2×2 round plate with a rounded bottom to go underneath this. These shields are one of 5 different colors: each representing one of the primary NEXO Knight heroes: Clay, Aaron, Lance, Macy and Axl. I will however find five of the pentagonal NEXO Knight shields, each with a unique power. If you have friends or relatives who are prone to pick up random collectable minifigs for you, make sure they do not expect to find a mini figure in these packs – otherwise they will be bitterly disappointed. You can now get five shields and some other pieces in a blind bag. Five shields in a blind bag: We have spoken previously of the use of the NEXO Knights’ shields to provide power ups in battle in the Merlock 2.0 App. However, when I reached the shelves, I got a surprise…
So I decided to pick up Battle Suit Lance. After last year’s Ultimate series, these shake things up a little, putting each of the knights into small mech-suits. This year sees the launch of the Battle Suit NEXO Knights. The Rambling Brick made its debut almost 12 months ago with a review of Ultimate Macy – boasting new pieces, new colors and a new go get’em heroine, it was an interesting starting point for me in the theme. Entering the second year, we see new colors entering the overall design aesthetic, particularly dark grey and purple, as we now have silicon based allies for Jestro and his cronies. January 2017 sees the release of the next wave of NEXO Knight sets.
