Post anything Ninjago!
Rules:
@Greenie
Now I want to make a lego product idea for that... 😄 I probably won't get time though, I already have so many other lego projects to finish!
So...
Tommy A. said that there might be more LGBT+ stuff in the future.
If so, I'm leaving* 😦
Thoughts?
@Pyro same. I mean I'm gone, but i came on today. But same.
So by leaving, do you mean the Ninjago community or Mecabricks, Ideas and the whole Lego community?
Ninjago has lost its appeal (to me, at least) ever since it became nearly impossible for Americans to watch it without some sort of VPN. So . . . yeah.
@Pyro If so I will be right with you buddy, sad, but that's the way it is. I like the show, and the sets... but like Star Wars I refuse to watch any episode that contains that kind of content. If they go big into it though, it's all out the window for me. I'll probably still watch older seasons... sometimes...
Pyro/Greenie: And I’ll join you as well. So sad that this is the direction the world is going. 😕
yea.....glad to see that I'm not alone.
gtg....forever, maybe.
I'll agree with everyone, especially Greenie, I might still watch some of the old seasons or episodes that don't contain references to it. I guess time will have to tell. It's strange that Lego are allowing this though, as there brand values state they are against these:
-Politics and political symbols, campaigns, or movements
-Religious references including symbols, buildings, or people
-Nudity, drugs, or smoking
-Alcohol in any present-day situation
-Swearing or profanity
-Death, killing, blood, terrorism, horror, or torture
-First-person shooter video games
-Warfare or war vehicles in any modern or present-day situation, or national war memorials
-Large or human-scale weapons or weapon replicas of any kind, including swords, knives, guns, sci-fi or fantasy blasters, etc.
-Racism, bullying, or cruelty to real life animals
I feel like Lego is breaking their first rule with "movements and campaigns". I also don't get that they support this community, but didn't allow the Technic Osprey set through last summer, which was not even directly related to the "Warfare" category. Anyone else also see this?
Gecko: Most companies don’t adhere to their “code” at all, but LEGO is one that is surprisingly consistent. Or should I say, WAS surprisingly consistent. But there have been many deaths in Ninjago, many guns in Marvel sets, so . . . yeah. And their “everyone is awesome” set is blatantly breaking the first “rule”.
LEGO: gasp
@Gecko,
Just Ninjago; as much as I love the story of Season 8-10, the Ice Chapter, etc., I feel like the Ninjago I grew up with ended in Season 7.
@Gecko it's all just virtue signaling... so many companies that support things like Black Lives Matter, LGBTQ+, etc etc fill in the blank and what not... they don't care all that much, they just don't want to get bashed by the big left wing media. They know that if they don't come out supporting whatever the left is, they will get the media's hate for it, and some politicians. It's how the bad plays... they push, not giving an inch... and we suffer when people won't take a stand. The cool thing is, the smallest stands of truth go much farther than we would think. Evil, as big and oppressive as it is, is cowardly. If only people would just stand up to them! I can guarantee you that if all the Ninjago loving Christians spoke their mind to TA, he wouldn't allow that stuff in there.
@Greenie; I think one of the reasons Ninjago lasted as long as it has is the amount of Christians working for it.
Confirmed
Jay Vincent (composer) = Christian (personal correspondence on Soundcloud)
Brent Miller (VA for Zane) = Christian (comments section on a video when he sung a Christmas carol)
Dan and George Castady (The Fold) = Christian (Personal correspondence via email; also Dan mentions it in one of his livestreams. I also found the official channel comment on a Christian song on YouTube)
Possible
Michael Kramer (he invited Dan Castady to sing the Weekend Whip; also has worked in close contact with Jay Vincent for 10 years so...)
Pyro: You have many more connections than I would've thought . . . . It's rather impressive.
Greenie: Yup, just intimidation, going along with the latest trend, etc. Guess what, standing up to it gets as much attention as agreeing with it, if not more. Who knew? 😂
@Pyro TA has been added to my list of people to pray for 😂, literally though. If he would get saved...
Well I was thinking that when I will have the time and money I will try and make my own continue of Ninjago S13 in the form of 3d Blender animation. I also plan to make a kind of hero working alongside the ninja. So I think it will be (if the series happens) a kind of Marvel and Ninjago mix. What do you think about that?
CLB: That sounds really cool! How would you continue the storyline? Would it be completely different from the current storyline, or is it an illustration of events we just never saw?
@Custom: Sounds Epic! 😄
