Minifigure Spotlight 23.8- Nya (Ninjago)

 Minifigure Spotlight 23.8- Nya (NRG)

 Figure ID#: NJO705

 Year(s): 2021

 Theme: Ninjago: Seabound

 Other: 2021 saw the valiant team of Ninjago Ninjas on a couple adventures, one notably being the “Seabound” theme. In this theme, with throwbacks to the older “Atlantis” LEGO theme and nods to “10000 Leagues Under the Sea”, the Seabound theme saw the Ninjas take to the ocean depths to battle sea monsters, underwater Serpentine, and to try to help Nya stabilize her out-of-control water powers. Over the course of the story, Nya becomes overcome by her powers and is transcended into pure water-based energy. The minifigure featured new prints and translucent elements, and was definitely one of the more interesting character variants to come out of the Seabound theme.

Brick Talk: Knockoffs Vs 3rd Party and Why It Matters

Today I want to introduce a new segment of The LEGO Maniac blog, we are going to simply call it "Brick Talk". In these segments we will talk over different issues regarding LEGO, the LEGO community, and other relevant topics. I hope that, through these segments, we can help clarify and educate the LEGO Community on current issues. In this edition of Brick Talk, I want to address the topic of Knockoffs, 3rd Party products, and why we should even care. Believe it or not, the issue of Knockoff LEGO Products is actually a very big issue and has ramifications that run deeper than most realize. As is, you see this topic brought up in LEGO Facebook groups, Pages and on Reddit and other social media platforms. Usually the term "Knockoff", "Fake", "Flego", "Fake LEGO", and "3rd Party" are used fairly interchangeably. Also, a number of AFOL's argue rather heatedly over whether you should buy Fake LEGO or even have them in your colle...

Guide SP-5: Ice Planet 2002 (1994)

  -Guide 3: Ice Planet 2002 (1993)- In 1993 LEGO Space introduced us to the frozen surface of the planet Krysto. The mustached Captain Cold led the inhabitants of this “Ice Planet” in their advancements in the study of rockets and rocket fuel. Alongside him, the first female Space character, Doctor Kelvin, worked to keep their satellite and rocket technology out of the hands of the villainous “Blacktron” agents. The “Ice Planet” faction took the place of M:Tron as the resident civilian faction in LEGO Space lore, working alongside the officers of the second “Space Police” generation to foil the plans of the “Blacktron Future Generation”. The theme was released just after the discontinuation of “Space Police 2” and “Blacktron Future Generation”, and just before the outbreak of the “Spyrius” and “Unitron” conflict. This put them in the position to be featured alongside both sets of warring factions, and though a small force and civilian-based, the “Ice Planet” astronauts proved to be...
