SY610 NICK knights

This ones for the kids. Saw this on TV as well as from department store selling ori-Lego. SY came out with this new Lego inspired cartoon series. The actual name is NEXO Knights (NK), but as usual, bootlegs will renamed it. Will there be another multiple-variation for these guys similar to Ninjago? Lets get to know them (and this SY set) better.
Aaron the chill out thrill seeker on his Aero Striket V2 (?). He's supposed to carry a Blazer Bow
Clay -- Most heroically heroic hero… Ever! The Claymore sword is Chima like.
Lance - Shiniest knight around, his Lance weapon look like a laser beam
Macy - The princess with a punch.The mace is just not really correct trigonometric-ally
Robin - Construction wiz Knight student
Royal Soldier - Sure has an Orange face
Beast Master - Different hat - Ball should have Globlin faces. But like that catapult
Flame thrower Lava Soldier - Bow is not matching the actual
So, for those who are a great fan of Nexo Knights, one will know that this SY sets have lot of difference in almost many ways with the original minifigs.  Getting to know this set better does not really make this set better. Hope SY will improve in their next take. Anyway, the mini builds (believe is not related in any way to the NK)  is quite interesting.

  1. I bought the Dargo ones instead of SY - Clay and Macy. In terms of matching original Lego Nexo Knights, Dargo wins this round.

    SY is not using any new elements introduced in Nexo Knights at all. And that's not excusable for SY. But I bet SY will come up with better Nexo Knights copy later.

    1. I think Dargo wins Big round. Maybe next time SY will name it NEXA knights, when they make the new molds to match the ori.
      What to do, kids like them, and Dargo is hard to come by to my area.

  2. Macy's mace is suppose to have a new element ... small 1x1 pyramid brick. I will buy more Macy for that element.

    And the green fella's crossbow ammunition is another cool new element ... a lollipop-like thing ... real useful element.

    Those two elements are there in Dargo set.

    1. Yep, saw from the NK Lego site Macy's mace is pointy like Durian.

  3. I ended up buying all Dargo Nexo Knights because my son digs them. I tried to talk him out of it so we can wait for SY to make better and accurate clones. But he won't have it. He did say he won't buy SY ones when it comes. I hope his Nexo Knight obsession phases out by then.

    1. It's okay. Somehow the street peddler I frequent has the Dargo set. Since my kids is playing with the SY Nexo (those gliders and all), I got myself the 6 boxes set from Dargo. Initial decision is to buy just a few of them, but I dig those shields!
