Hey all joking aside, have you seen the new modular bank set? It looks like it uses the nexo-knight shield tiles in the floor in dark bley and sand blue! Could be an interesting new parts usage if they put it out in some opaque colors. Nexo-Knight Flooring Technique by Jordan, on Flickr THose are incredible! Wow, that's going to bring all sorts of possiblities...

That's going to be very useful! Hope they're not too expensive on Bricklink. Also, if you look at that lamp in bottom, left corner you'll see they reused the ring element from Lord of the Rings but in black.

Okay a bit off topic, but if they can use all these molds for stuff, why cant they bring back the goat. Or the black and white cow, or the pigs???
Yea we have plans to get 2 banks cant wait for them. Also as to nexo knights.... I still have to see them in person but will probably pass

I believe that is a 1x1 round plate with hole in it, not a LOTR ring in black, sadly. See my Flickr stream for an explanation of how that lamp is assembled. As for the shield tiles' cost, I'm hoping they will be available to pick up via LUGBulk at some point, since only getting a few of them in a $160 set will undoubtedly cause them to be priced sky-high on BL.

They would totally increase sales if they made some sets with those. That's going to be very useful! Hope they're not too expensive on Bricklink.

Dang-it! A black ring would be so useful... Yeah, that'd at least increase the amount around. Decent prices on Bricklink would be ideal, though...

That new Modular actually has a lot of great part usage and generally interesting things going for it. But does it have Transparent Flourescent Reddish-Orange windscreens and blue armor pieces? I DIDN'T THINK SO! Nexo-Knights - 1 Every other lame Lego theme - 0

If I had money left, I'd put it all in the bank, heh.

Plenty of close-ups on brickset brickset.com/sets/year-2016/theme-Nexo-Knights. Click on the set then got to more images. Don't quite know what the deal is with the 'Ultimate' figures (is there a play feature? I can't see anything like the Ninjago spinners/flyers) but could be neat parts/accessory packs for a number of new pieces.

The "Ultimate" figs almost look like they are supposed to be used for a game or something, what with the extra bits included, such as 4 fire pieces for "Ultimate Clay" and 4 bananas for "Ultimate Aaron".

Oh yeah, the "powers" (shield things) included in every set can be redeemed in a game (I think I read that somewhere).

There's going to be a kids magazine for this theme as well (in the UK at least). If it's anything similar to the Ninjago, Star Wars, Friends and Elves ones (wow, they're really pushing these magazine aren't they!) then it will be a short selection of puzzles, comics and an 'exclusive free gift'. The 'gifts' have been really variable on the other magazine, from figures to a bunch of accessories, but might be a nice way to pick up some of the new Nexo parts without having to buy the larger sets.

These villains are the reason why I'll get all the Nexo Knights sets. Great way to start a demon army!
