LEGO Nexo Knights Teaser Site Updated


Recommended Posts

The LEGO Nexo Knights teaser site has been updated with an interactive map of the kingdom of Knighton. Clicking on the three highlighted locations (Waterton, Knightonia, and an unidentified rural village) brings up pictures and descriptions of enemies the Nexo Knights will face. Also, below, the "Welcome to Knighton" image gallery now features several more images from the Nexo Knights TV series. Finally, the posters of the five Nexo Knights are now also available as wallpapers. Follow the link above to check out the updated site!

I really like the artwork used for the map. It kind of reminds me of the artwork released for the 2010 Bionicle story. The ones that had the voice over by Michael Dorn. I really like that it has a lot of details on it too. There are various homes, villages, and cities in many different areas, for example. 

 

There's also a bridge that connects the capital to various places on the map as well. I bet that will somehow play an important role in the story.

Everyone is one choice away from being the bad guy in another person's story.

Something I failed to mention in this news story is that the GB version of the site has different map locations listed than the US version. On the GB version the village Lavaria is attacking isn't clickable, but three other locations are added. This means we get to see descriptions of six different Lava Monsters.

 

Here's the kicker. Of those six lava monsters, three are female! Possibly the best gender ratios we've ever seen in any one faction. There are definitely other lava monsters that aren't listed here, like the Ash Attacker that comes in the Fortrex set, and we don't know whether those are going to be treated as individuals or as generic goons like the Scuttlers, but Nexo Knights definitely seems to be off to a great start in terms of diversity.

 

By contrast, Legends of Chima usually introduced two new female hero characters and two new female villain characters per year (I'm talking sets now — there might have been more in the TV series). Nexo Knights already has three female heroes (Macy, the Queen, and the little girl with the handheld gaming console) and now three female villains. Pretty rad.
