Meiko Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 So if you were watching the epic Ninjago series finale Wednesday night, you would have seen directly after a very cool trailer for LEGO: Legends of Chima. The animation looks top quality as did Ninjago, and the landscapes are amazing. I hope we get more trailers over the next few weeks, and maybe even a premier date.I believe Michael Kramer is doing the composing for the show like he did for Ninjago. I still haven't gotten confirmation from Jay whether or not he will be composing for the show.It will air on Cartoon Network starting in 2013, most likely on Wednesdays at 7:30 or 8pm ET like Ninjago did.So what are your thoughts guys?

T.B.O.C Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 I'm still unhappy that Ninjago is going out like Exo-Force did, but at least we got an ending this time...Either way, Chima doesn't look that great to me.

Ninjago got an epic finale that wrapped up all the loose ends, and sold well enough to get one final wave of sets to cap off the theme. A pretty big difference if you ask me.I encourage you to give Chima a shot. It seems to be very similar in style to both Ninjago and Exo-Force, so if you liked both of those I think you might be pleasantly surprised.

I see a lot of people overlook Chima because of the sets and sometimes even more specifically for the fact that it is about animals. Really, there won't be that many differences outside of the sets that the diehard Ninjago fans shouldn't like. It's being promoted almost identically to how Ninjago was. Print media such as books and comics appear that they will take the same route. And the TV show is going to be done by the same folks at JAM and WilFilm that brought you Ninjago. Also, if you liked Exo-Force, I already have some news about the sets that you might like. The same folks that did the musical aspect of the Ninjago TV show will be doing it for Legends of Chima, so that's another thing to like.

I have faith in great designers.Most of the Chima pics I've seen are brick-built... the parts are no more specific than what you'd see in an average theme like LEGO City at any rate. Although personally I think one of the things I like most in a theme is if it uses specialized parts in creative ways, like the cement mixer drum pieces used in Atlantis or the various BIONICLE and Knights' Kingdom parts used in Exo-Force. Certainly there aren't any models I've seen that depend on huge molded pieces like in various themes of the late 90s like UFO, Insectoids, and Rock Raiders, besides arguably the Croc Boat which IMO gets a free pass since it is impossible to make a floating ship from modern parts without a huge molded hull.

~garnira returns~ Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 I'm not nearly as interested in this as I was in ninjago, however, I may watch the series occasionaly, and I have targetted the two sets that I will buy. One reason that I don't like this as much as ninjago thus far is that I very much enjoyed the oriental theme of ninjago, which is quite missing in chima. Quote "Copy and paste me into your sig!

Madu Cabolo Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 I am not a massive fan of ninjago, however I do like the nature sci-fantasy that Lego appears to be using with Chima. I honestly did not like the TV series at all so I'm hoping they'll do a better job with Chima. From what I've seen, it looks like it will start on a much more epic scale than the ninjago series did.

Dralcax Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 Don't count on it. Sometimes the "release date" just ends up being when the stores make room for the new sets on the shelves. I remember how it took forever for my local TRU to get the first Ninjago sets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
