LEGO is always trying new things out. This year for some of their favorite Ninjago characters they are making this interesting avatar set. The box is also a case that looks like an old school video game. The back opens up to show a minifigure, and has space for all their weapons and accessories. This set Lego 71714, has 49 pieces, comes with one Kai minifigure, has a ton of accessories for him, all in a cool box that is also a case.

I’M beyond excited that LEGO is releasing another Chinese style set – this one is 80105 Temple Fair, which goes along with the New Year Lion Dance also being released early in 2020. This goes along with the Dragon Boat Set was released in the United States which I have, but I’m still missing the New Year’s Dinner and the Lion Dance.

Of all the new 2020 LEGO Ninjago Sets coming out – I think that set 71712 The Temple of Madness is my favorite. Not just because it has 6 minifigures, or is for ages 9 and up, but because it has the most detail, is the most architecturally relevant, and has a ton of play-ability. I like the way they are using technic elements in Ninjago to hold up the lamps for instance. But there is so much more.

I’m not exactly sure what a cyber dragon is, but it seems pretty cool. It is a mech that acts like a dragon? Is a dragon that has cyborg parts? Do you ride it, or sit inside? I cant quite figure it out. No matter, it is what it is, and that’s all that matters. This LEGO Cyber Dragon comes with 5 minifigures and has 518 pieces.

Did you ever see the movie “Back to the Future” I think it was at the end of the first one when the Doc flys onto Marty’s street in the Delorian Time Machine. Marty gets into the car, and then the car launches into the air slowly, with the wheels and tires folding underneath the carriage for aerodynamics. That’s what this Car reminds me of, but it it also part helicopter. So there is that. What do you think of it? It comes with 4 minifigures and over 400 pieces.

A car, a Jet, 3 minifigures and all of it is Ninjago. Yes Please. Well, it’s not really a car, it’s really more of a green motorcycle because it has 2 wheels instead of 4. But the Jet is a jet for sure.

Some people like LEGO vehicles. Other like LEGO Mechs. I’m a big fan of ciy scenes made out of LEGO, and that’s why the 2020 LEGO Ninjago Market Place is one of my favorite sets from the series this year. It comes with 9 minifigures and 218 pieces so you can build and play all afternoon long.

This set transforms from a mech robot to a Ninjago flying jet, and has stud shooters, trans yellow wings, and so much more.

Have you seen these new trans clear minifigure stands? They are included in the new LEGO DC Minifigure CMF packs, but I expect to be seeing them in lots of new sets coming out in 2020. These tiny, clear pieces have a 45-degree angle and have a inverted LEGO stud at one end with a hole and the other is the perfect size to fit in the claw hand.

As a parent I want to make sure my kid is playing with something cool, but isn’t too violent. This is where LEGO ninjago comes in. I know that they are not vulgar or graphic, teach good lessons, but are still interesting enough that the series and toys will keep his attention. Yes there are swords, and magic and stuff like that but overall the lessons learned from the shows are valuable. The Cole’s speeder is a set designed for younger builders, starting at age 4, and comes with 2 minifigures and 52 pieces.
