I wanted to pass along some exciting news to all my readers who are LEGO® NINJAGO® fans. Starting Jan. 12, 2017, kids are invited to enter a magical martial arts kingdom where you become the ninja in your very own LEGO® NINJAGO® [NIN-JAH-GO] adventure when a whole new theme park land opens at LEGOLAND® Florida Resort. LEGO NINJAGO World will add an immersive area filled with several hands-on, outdoor activities where kids can sharpen their ninja skills before the ultimate showdown on LEGO NINJAGO The Ride, a dazzling new attraction that blends 3D computer animation, “4D” effects and groundbreaking technology never seen outside a LEGOLAND theme park. Inspired by the popular LEGO building sets and the “LEGO NINJAGO: Masters of Spinjitzu” TV show, LEGO NINJAGO World puts guests at the center of the action in lots of fun ways: LEGO NINJAGO The Ride — a state-of-the-art “dark ride” where guests score points using ninja hand moves to blast animated fireballs, lightning and more at waves of 3D villains
Zane’s Temple Build — a giant LEGO building experience where kids can contribute to a model of a mountaintop NINJAGO monastery Kai’s Spinners — master the ancient art of Spinjitzu at these twirling, whirling, single-person platforms Cole’s Rock Climb — an outdoor climbing wall to test kids’ balance and endurance Jay’s Lightning Drill — measure your reflexes with these “lightning fast” light-up targets The lushly landscaped area also will feature daily meet-and-greet opportunities with sibling ninjas Kai and Nya [NEE-AH], and Wu’s Warehouse, a themed retail shop stuffed with LEGO NINJAGO building sets, toys, clothing, souvenirs and more. LEGO NINJAGO The RideAssisted by Kai and Nya, LEGOLAND Florida Resort General Manager Adrian Jones announced the land’s grand opening date on the eve of the resort’s fifth birthday, continuing the largest period of growth and expansion in its history. Since opening Oct. 15, 2011, the place #BuiltForKids has added LEGOLAND Water Park (May 2012), LEGO Star Wars™ Miniland Model Display (November 2012), LEGO World of Chima™ (July 2013), DUPLO® Valley (May 2014), LEGOLAND Hotel (May 2015) and Heartlake City (June 2015).
In addition, the resort has unveiled several phased restorations of the historic Cypress Gardens, which celebrated its 80th anniversary earlier this year. Along with LEGO NINJAGO World, construction continues on LEGOLAND Beach Retreat, which will more than double the resort’s on-site accommodations when its whimsically themed bungalows open in mid-2017. Guests currently can make reservations for stays from June 1-Sept. 4, 2017, with rates starting at $182 per night. A grand opening date and associated festivities will be announced at a later date, along with additional amenities.

Blogger Template Created For Mom FilesAmazon opens preorders for Lego Dimensions Adventure Time, Harry Potter and other packs All eyes are set on LEGO and Warner Bros’ next big, brick-built film with The LEGO Batman Movie. Slated to hit theaters on February 10, the highly-anticipated film managed to inspire 18 sets, several polybags, and a handful of accessories and memorabilia. However, most fans may be unaware that there is another LEGO-themed film that is also scheduled to be released in cinemas this year. Voiced by Olivia Munn, Dave Franco and the legendary Jackie Chan, The LEGO Ninjago Movie is expected to arrive in theaters on September 22, 2017.
Directed by Charlie Bean and Paul Fisher, and produced by Warner Bros. Pictures and Warner Animation Group (WAG), the film “tells the story of six young ninja tasked with defending their island home, called Ninjago. By night, they’re gifted warriors, using their skill and awesome fleet of vehicles to fight villains and monsters. By day, they’re ordinary teens, struggling against their greatest enemy: high school.” Last August, it came to our attention that LEGO has come up with several sets based on the LEGO Ninjago Movie – 14 to be exact – but we don’t have an idea yet on what their name or descriptions are. Thanks to LEGO portal Pricevortex, and Brickset’s exhaustive database, we now know the various sets that are related to the film. Here’s the most updated list of sets rumored to be released under The LEGO Ninjago Movie theme. Jay’s Electro Waver (70606) Samurai Stealth Takedown (70608) Nya’s Water Brigade (70610) Ninja Wake Run (70613)
Kai’s Blazing Breaker (70614) Krypt of the Cave (70616) Shadow Legion Ambush (70618) Ninjago City Invasion (70620) Of course, these are just titles and we will certainly keep an eye on these sets’ official images. So, what do you think about these sets? Are you looking forward to them?
