How did you miss EXOFORCE? Modern Ninjago mechs feel like a modern take on those mid 00s mechs. Jan 2024 mechs swapable limbs feel like a reference to Galidor. This years Arin car is over prized, but its colourscheme reminds me of Nexoknights
Clutch powers would eventually go to ninjago, and in his movie there were two skeletons named skelly and bones who were dumb and drove each other nuts, like Nukal and Kruncha
Another connection for Seabound is to the 2007 BIONICLE storyline. The Hydro Bounty contains a sticker with the set number of the Toa Terrain Crawler, the vehicle used by the Toa Mahri, and Prince Kalmaar is almost certainly named as a reference to the squid-themed Barraki Kalmah, down to the pronunciation of both being identical.
Wow this really shows how little I paid attention to ninjago, seeing these really makes me want to collect some of them but I don’t remember seeing most of these on store shelfs
Fun fact: Season 13.5 (The island) is a throwback to the Original Godzilla. I mean, Some mysterious islanders worship a huge and deadly beast called Wojira? The name Wojira is awfully similiar to Gojira, the original name of Godzilla, and look at the Islanders' sheilds and tell me thats not Godzilla's silhouette.
I feel like the two skeleton minions from the Clutch Powers movie might be an inspiration for Kruncha & Nuckal >Both are a pair >One wears a helmet >One's more serious while the other is more dumb >They're both comedic characters
and let's not forget the most suttle one since day 1 4 differently colored ninja's, with elemental powers, searching for golden weapons sounds very similar to BIONICLE 6 differently colored toa, with elemental powers, searching for golden masks
In season 14 and 15 there’s was an Easter egg of scooby doo. Season 14 ronin said “I would’ve of gotten away with it too if it weren’t for your u meddling ninja and your dragon. And in season 15 jay says to maya “*gasp* your ducklsworth”
I honestly really love how Dragons Rising S2 had a nice callback to Chima!
If they wanted they could use ninjago to reboot chima I feel people would
Go crazy for it
@@Shadow_1287That would be cool!
huh how did it have a call back to chima?

I always love the references to past lego themes in Ninjago set’s great video AL123 Productions
thx for the info
Garmadon's mech from the Lego Ninjago Movie is based on the hammerhead shark minifigures from the Atlantis theme.
I mean you can say that this wave of Ninjago is kinda like Exo-Force but you can say that about any theme with mechs
Loved this video. The sky pirates honestly felt closer to Metalbeard than traditional Lego pirates.
Clutch powers would eventually go to ninjago, and in his movie there were two skeletons named skelly and bones who were dumb and drove each other nuts, like Nukal and Kruncha
@@redshot5403 yes
You mentioning Dtinaglia studios brought back so many memories i liked their vids

Great videos as always AL123

I love this video. This part is the best 0:22 in my opinion.
I will always love Ninjago

Clutch Powers was released in 2010 and Ninjago in 2011 so it’s honestly quite possible haha
Speaking of missing out, the Ice Samurai can be technicly described as Ninjago take on Chima's ice hunters aka army of Ice zombies.
and let's not forget the most suttle one since day 1
4 differently colored ninja's, with elemental powers, searching for golden weapons
sounds very similar to BIONICLE

You are right about The best ninja
This really is great for all Lego themes. Thank you Ninjago.
I love sky pirates they should have there own theme
1:48 BEST NINJA? Jay is the best.
dragons rising vs fortnite cause i heard there was some big explosion in fortnite that may have bene similar to the merge
Yea the merge is probably possible in fortnite seeing that they have like every colab
There’s a ninjago mode in Fortnite made by the Lego group
Uhh om the master of the mountain you can find a non yellow skinned fig
I still am calling master of the mountain, earthbound. I don't care that it is wrong
master of mountain is more of d&d set to me if anything then say castle set.
I love that Ninjago took aspects from Pharaoh's Quest and Atlantis for "Secrets of the Forbidden Spinjitzu" and "Seabound" respectively.
He forgot crystalized cause its them is like lego batman
Ninjago is one of the best
Bionicle IS the best.
100% agree 🔥
There’s another LEGO theme that is similar to Ninjago season 3 and that is Ultra Agents because both of these sub-themes are in a futuristic world.
Very true! Toxikita and Paleman also came straight from Ultra Agents sets!
What do you mean by you sadly missed out on its sets at the time?
Seabound could've spent more time underwater. And we should've had a larger wave.
It would’ve definitely been nice to get more deep sea creatures for Seabound, whether they were minifigures or builds.
Bionicol in regrds ti sebaund
Both have a squidman named Kalmaar/Kalmah haha, I probably should have mentioned that 😆
