Lego Rewind- Nexo Knights

[@constantinesousanis9436]

I came here a Nexo hater and now I want every set

[@EternityKingdomsHeadHoncho]

The fact that Axl was the only figure of his type genuinely hurts me. So much more flexible than big figs and yet still bigger than the average minifig.

Don’t forget Leatherhead! Damn, now I feel bad for completely forgetting to talk about Axl’s build

@@NickonPlanetRipple There was also a Mr. Incredible minifig that basically was built like Axl. Unfortunately it was only in a video game while the actual minifig just had a regular body. No idea why they only had that for a game when having that torso in real life could’ve diversified minifigs even more similar to how the Woody arms and legs did.

I know barely anyone will see this comment but... the story of nexo knights actually wrapped up in the comic within the final magazine of nexo knights, with (spoiler), Clay entering the digital realm to save Merlock, and fight with Monstrox on his own turf, sorta like that one episode of ninjago during the "rebooted" season. I could be remembering it wrong though, it has been over 8 years...

[@Teddy.8108]

Yeah if I‘m not mistaken Clay beats Monstrox but Merlok dies in the end (I think he sacrificed himself or something but as you said, it’s been 8 years…)

[@skylarlunaaphroditeparadis4991]

Has it really been 8 years???

[@PlasticToa]

that only a hundred years gap thing combined with the early 90s classic space color schemes has me wondering, what if the technology advanced so quickly because pieces of spacecraft from those older space themes somehow fell back to earth through time and space and got reverse engineered by the classic castle kingdoms?

[@heyheyitsjae2475]

There's precedence for this. In the Clutch Powers all the Castle themes took place on their own planet, but thanks to an evil wizard's spell they weren't able to use a lot of the space technology other LEGO people were using at the time. That wizard got taken out by the end of the film, so I wouldn't be surprised if they started experimenting with new tech!

[@thunderspark1536]

​@@heyheyitsjae2475So Monstrux is the red wizard guy. That does make sense.

[@lbricks7631]

I had completely forgotten all the Python references in the 2nd season. Great stuff. I love hearing Ninjago voice actors in other Lego shows, its a mini-pool of talent.

[@Cadiastand-upcomedy]

You know you are getting old when someone rewinds your childhood...

[@thomasrdiehl]

One thing of note about Nexo Knights: The theme was very popular with knock-off companies and went on to get unofficial new sets for several years, usually branded "Nick Knights".

[@Pop-ms9zf]

I remember these knockoff sets that had Lava Dinosaurs with Lava Monsters riding them. Epic stuff lol

[@juliancar5700]

I'm going to be completely honest. Once Nexo Knights came out. I hated it since it replaced Chima. I was a passionate fan of Chima and was so disappointed we didn't get a final wave with the cured Hunters , more of the bear tribe, more of the rhinos , and more of the Beaver tribe. The only cured hunter we ever got was Sir Fangar which was an exclusive Target minifigure from the Target exclusive minifigure cube. With all the new elements and builds Lego has now. It'd be cool to see what a new Chima wave would have. There was originally going to be a film which would've been set after the finale. But for unknown reasons , it never happened. The poster was however completed. Allegedly the film would've been about Laval searching for his mother. After years have passed and I now saw this video I think Nexo Knights was interesting. Especially how it combined numerous things from old Lego themes into one.

[@NickonPlanetRipple]

@@juliancar5700 I mean… there are people who hate Hero Factory for “replacing” Bionicle and who hate Chima for attempting to replace Ninjago. It’s just how it goes, I guess.

[@ember_angeldust]

Honnestly, the thrid years of Nexo Knights looks like straight out of a Necron tombworld... AND IT'S BLOODY AWESOME!

[@LauraLowe]

Shoutout to the King's Mech for using a hero factory brain attack visor, fits perfectly into the theme's aesthetic. It's always a treat to see constraction parts in system sets.

[@y.schramm2405]

Lego should finally hire this guy

[@MultiBrawler]

Oh, nexo knights, I wished it had continued to this day. my favorite of these sets were the battle suits and the last wave of this series cause I liked the black and neon green aesthetics of the Villans.

[@Person-wz6iy]

I do wish Nexo Knights got it's 5th and 6th seasons, as even Chima got to finish properly. Well at least it was finished through the Europe exclusive comics.

Which of course I bring up in an older episode’s script, but I didn’t want to repeat myself too much in this one.

[@Loremastrful]

Thoughts on Nexo Knights: 1) They really should have had a team building season. I imagined that each of the Knights came from a tribe/kingdom based on the old Castle factions. Like Aaron was a Forestmen and they have a reputation for thievery. Axl is a Black Bull and they're known as brutes who like to fight alot. And bringing them together meant learning they were more than their faction. 2) Nexo Knight definitely oversaturated. I get that they were enthusiastic about another Ninjago theme, but the dozens of sets meant no one was getting them all and that meant no one was getting into the collectibles. Especially for kids, collectibles have to be something obtainable. 3) Jestro gave me some Dhoulmagus vibes. He was the main villain in Dragon Quest 8. An evil force possessed him and he spent most of the game undoing the binds that restrained this evil force. 4) The Evil factions should have had a Knight of their own. A lava knight, a stone knight, etc. Maybe it's a bit Medieval Times, but I'd have loved a tournament where the Nexo Knights face these guys on the Tourney grounds.

[@NickonPlanetRipple]

The last wave has Fred, at least. His sword’s pretty cool

[@robonaught]

Aaron was probably more Wolfpack then Forestmen because his emblem is wolf. I've seen some say its a fox but I say its a wolf. Also I kind of wish they gave Axl grey eyes like the Bulls from Knights Kingdom 1 as some kind of hint Axl might be a descendent of Cedric the Bull.

[@fujo1726]

i've recently become a nexo knights fan for around two months or more now and i have been obsessed!!! i have memories of watching it on tv when i was younger but never got the chance to have a set since 1- my family was low class and 2- lego wasn't seen as a girls toy but now that im grown up and watched the show my god!! i've been looking around for ANY form of content and this was such a nice find, i really liked your video AND LOVED your interpretation on the characters, we need more people in the fandom i really fell in love with this show, its now one of my fixations, i make fan art of it and try to make my few friends watch it, i love nexo knights

[@fujo1726]

also clay being autistic is soooo canon

[@satellachannel6423]

Regarding minifigures, not getting a teen/adult version of Ava was the biggest disappointment. With Robin getting his heroic minifigure rifgt at the end, i am pretty sure she was planned to be in the cancelled second half of the last wave. Probably corrupted or in a damsel in distress situation, a perfect way to round up the growing of Robin as a true knight after years of following the team. Takua style

[@idkwhattohaveasausername5828]

Hot take: Nexo Knights is one of my favorite lines of “castle” themed Lego sets. It takes the almost boring line of castle themed sets and flips it on it’s head with futuristic weapons. It’s super creative imo.

[@ilpiste]

I used to play with the old late 80's space and castle sets my dad got when he was younger, often fusing them, I still remember the excitement I had over Nexo Knights' futuristic medieval fusion. Wished it had proper 3rd wave.

[@hgc7000]

While I wasn't a fan of the Hero figures overall, I absolutely loaded up on the monster figures. Nexo Knights had AMAZING baddies all three years, and the line helped augment my Lego Castle collection perfectly. As a stand alone idea, it is very rad and unique.

[@thesonofdormammu5475]

I know I'm an outlier but Nexo Knights is my favorite theme that LEGO has done. Eventually I'm going to get the bricks to add more builds to the 3rd wave and MOC the 4th and 5th waves (water and forest). I have big plans but little $$$ I need to get a 3d printer to make the elements I need and I need to keep practicing my minifigure modification methods. Might never happen but I can keep dreaming 🙂

[@Bionickpunk]

It's surreal realizing that trans neon orange had such a prominent presence in this line, just a few years before the color was discontinued.

[@NickonPlanetRipple]

Indeed, this was its finest hour

[@darklandmaster58]

I was so cruel to this theme. what was i thinking passing it up? this is so cool

[@VezonWireless]

When I played LEGO Racers as a kid, one of the first characters I built was a mashup of default Castle and Space minifig parts named "King Joe Race". I always imagined that he came from a hypothetical "Space Castle" theme that combined the aesthetics of Castle with the futurism of Space. Therefore, as soon as I saw Nexo Knights, I recognized that it was that "Space Castle" idea finally brought to life. I never understood why other AFOLs instantly hated it; I knew with full certainty that if I was still a kid, I would've really loved it and tried to collect as many sets as I could, just as I did with BIONICLE and Knights' Kingdom. Unfortunately, as with many other 2010s LEGO themes, it came out during a time of my adulthood where I had neither the money nor the space to continue buying LEGO sets, so I missed out on it and could only appreciate it from afar.

[@Bagel-rr1qb]

I remember one time when I was a kid, I walked into a store and saw these new futuristic, and fantasy sets. It blew my mind that you could have both go together so well. I ended up getting magmars siege machine as my first set. I really miss this line.

[@jdpragmatic8644]

11:20 It was my genuine pleasure to help you out with that Nick

[@spinjitzumasterfalcon]

To this day, it hurts that we never got a final season. I would have loved to see how it all ended in a final stand. Especially with the amazing sets. I don’t care what people say, this theme holds a special place in my heart. I’d love to see more Lego themes merge old and new technology with magic and fantasy. Dreamzzz just doesn’t have the same feel to it.

[@critmagnet]

"Crash the economy by turning gold into lead" ah yes, the Balthasar Gelt classic

[@brianross3988]

so if Galaxy Squad was a revamp for classic Space, and Nexo Knights for classic Castle, do you think Lego could make a similar themed-revamp with color-coded characters, wave villains, etc. for classic Pirates? the oft-unsung fourth pillar of classic Lego themes... i had ideas for the main crew venturing to different lost islands/continents that are each themed after compass directions, the four elements, and real-ish ancient cultures. all following an ancient mystical compass featuring a new multi-molded piece for minifig scale, and a larger brick-build version for kids to handle. hope to show you this stuff on Deviantart sometime, Nick!

Fletcher is crying rn Basically fletcher is clays brother and the book series has him and lances sister as the main characters. It offers some really good lore implications about roguls and wether they are naturally evil or if it depends on who zaps them to life. Also Baro n von bludgeonus and his Pegasus thing are very cool

[@MitchBam]

I have one of those books I believe. It had an exclusive power for the game called “Vicious Voltage” which had some awesome visuals. Pretty decent expanded lore, and yeah the Roguls are awesome.

[@gabrielpeixoto812]

Paradoxical though it may seem, I can see a magical society developing faster than our own; magic probably helps with a lot of the limitations we had to overcome with our own technology like overheating, miniaturization and the like. And yes, it is odd we haven't had a LEGO RPG yet; not even with BIONICLE or Ninjago which are full of species and worldbuilding. Closest we ever got were the Heroica board games.

Man, I could have sworn Nexo Knights came out yesterday... fantastic video Nick! It feels so weird seeing themes I kind of grew up on be viewed as nostalgic. Although, I feel like as corporations have continued to focus more and more on exsisting ip, our view on what nostalgia is has been so heavily distorted. I've seen 10 year olds talking about being nostalgic for what it was like when they were 8. I think that's part of the reason your videos stick out to me. Because while you bring the past back to life, you still focus on the future and what possibilities lie ahead of us!

[@Blu_Moon_Owl]

Oh god Nexo Knights got a remind. Awesome but sad and god am I old 💀

[@alanblanks]

Thank you! The TV show also had a parody of fawlty towers one episode. Year2's Jet for clay was excellent, but the battlesuits with the clip-on parts from the other sets got me building the most. The King's mech, with a battlesuit inside it was perfect. the "Cockpit" piece has had a few iterations and lego has moved the location fror the ball/socket on the torsopiece, but it's EVERYWHERE now as the buildable figures for just about every line. I've modded the Macey mechs into M-Tron battlesuit/Mechs, and the Blue Mechs into Space Police battlesuits.

[@taqresu5865]

The only Nexo Knights set I ever had was Lance's Twin Jouster. I couldn't find the accompanying mech for the play feature, but I really loved that set. For starters, there was a code to digitally add it to LEGO Universe, and it was amazing there. In-game it could drill a tunnel into the generated terrain in a comically perfect cylinder, and can descend at a manageable slope. So I found it way more convenient and less clunky than the drilling tools you were naturally equipped with. It was the LEGO equivalent of Minecraft strip mines. And it has an amazing Ice Planet-esque color scheme. With the recent release of the Space CMF, and the new Ice Planet minifig, I was thinking of repurposing the Jouster as an Ice Planet vehicle. It's already viable as is.

[@TorrentStudios]

Perfect timing. I've recently been going back into my NEXO Knights phase, and I just bought the Character Encyclopedia with Stone Clay minifigure today off FBMP Very interesting rewind on a theme that was, for its duration, very fun with its tie-in mobile game (my childhood!) It was also very unfortunate that the Season 5 sets came out but the series wasn't renewed. While it did leave us with a LOT of room to build up our own stories, I really wish we got an official conclusion. I know there are at least some scripts from Season 5 episodes that Tommy Andreasen posted and I hope that one day those scripts might be realised Unbreakable by Carpark North is literally one of my favourite songs ever too

Great rewind Nick! Kudos to building all the sets, and your year 3 mocs are great! I picked up a few sets from the theme after it had ended. Nexo Knights, as you said, is a great example of a theme living and dying by its color scheme. The number of sets and the over saturated colors was a bit much for me. It was nice to see them later accent the hero sets like they did with Alpha Team, and to give the villains a more contrasting color. But even with unique shillouttes, if every set looks purple and gray, it's not as exciting as other lego themes where each character and set is a different color. Multiple factions was a big strength for classic castle, and it's a shame we couldn't have gotten more banner variety in this theme (the warhammer looking space orcs from the concept art looked amazing!)

[@PurpleRhymesWithOrange]

Great review. This theme came out during years that I wasn't buying new Lego sets. I was never aware of how many sets there were or how diverse they got.

[@GigaMarx4213]

I admit, I really hated Nexo Knights when it came out. I was the biggest Chima fan in 2015 and I had all sorts of hopes for what the next season of that show would be, and Nexo Knights was acting as its replacement (even the Chima page on the LEGO website at the time confirmed it). Also, I don't really find mixing medieval with futuristic stuff to be a good concept. Nexo Knights did grow on me after a year though, and I did find myself buying quite a few sets. I loved their designs for the monsters, especially the stone ones. In the end, I was one of the people bummed about Nexo Knights cancellation.. full circle moment. It's very unfair how Nexo Knights ended. It had an interesting setup for the finale. It could've been Ninjago Rebooted done right. We could have learned more about Jestro and Clay's friendship now that they were on the same side. Instead, we just got a trailer and now we'll never see the intended ending for these characters. The Book of Monsters guidebook probably had the best minifigure designs we never got.

[@NickonPlanetRipple]

The funny thing is, that's exactly how Ninjago fans felt about Chima (even after Ninjago came back) and how Bionicle fans felt about Hero Factory (even after Bionicle came back). History repeats itself.

[@legogenius22]

This was my favorite theme when it was out. Never got the colossus, bummed to hear there wasn't enough forbidden powers for it, always thought there was. Definitely a grail set for me down the line.

Nexo Knights was a theme that I was borderline obsessed with back in the day, and even now still love. I get the gripes people had with the show, but I think it's actually pretty solid, and has its own qualities that allow it to stand out. And the sets... those speak for themselves.

So, I didn't know about the 3rd year, but is it me or do the"Cyber Biters" remind anyone else of the Necrons from Warhammer40k, especially at 15:26

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS VIDEO MAN❤ Nexo knights was a part of my childhood and I loved it I'm so happy that someone made a really good video on it so long after it ended You're video was awesome You even covered the canceled year 3 plans Btw those foil packs are from magazines The magazines where made from the start of the theme so you'd like you can also get some nice small vehicles for all 3 villain factions and 3 knight esthetics
