Since a lot of sets come out one to three weeks before their official release date, we should get it in the middle piece of chicken of December.
-coughs-
spoilers for Christmas 
Its released after Christmas so that they can either hit the after Christmas sales or hit kids after Christmas who are given money from there family. Most of the time after Christmas is when kids go out and get things while before Christmas its normally the parents

Courtesy of @anon29977764 and @Storm for finding the catalogue.
I’m glad there’s a cheap way to get that cross bow. I’m dissapointed Clay doesn’t get his claymore, and Robin has some OP backpack.

I love that Lavaria, looks awesome
Knowing Lego,those will probably end up being 15$ each.
I actually kind of like these. They’ll probably be overpriced as heck(due to that scenery), but I most certainly like how they’re making character central sets that don’t come with a big, generic vehicle or ultrabuild.
The crusades were a thing… It’s not like deserts just ceased to exist during the middle ages.

When I think of medievel kingdoms, the places that come to mind dont have deserts right next to them. It’s cool if it’s a distant land, but in the same land, it kinda ruins that British/french fantasy feel.

Here is the map of the other LEGO Medieval theme, Knights Kingdom world, Morcia. Note how the “desert area” is far away from the green lands on the map
Now lets look at the map for “Knighton” not only is there a desert not far away from the map, but also there is a volcanic are and a frozen area RIGHT NEXT TO IT
this map is fliping insain, it looks more like something from Bionicle than an actual kingdom.

It’s something they’ve done before? I realy would prefer it if the desert was in a distant land. It’d make for a nice expansion for the story and make the land feel alien to the main characters.
I totally understand, but I do also know that it can be pulled off.
This is kind of an odd source to cite, but I think this guy’s mocs pretty much prove it.
Whether they will pull it off, however, is a different story altogether.
I’m rather certain that’s an inaccurate map. Morcia was pretty much all green, with the badlands of Ankoria to the east. And even then, Ankoria was more wasteland than desert.

well at least Vladek had his own region to rule over, with Jestro he just seems to be like how many Medieval villains thends to be portraied, as bad guys who want to usurp the throne of the current monarcy and rule over the Kingdom, or is that what Jestro wants anyway? the show have not really showed his goals yet, so for all i know he might want to destroy the kingdom, which is a bit more original to be honest, but with how many medieval villains are, their motivation for attacking a kingdom is to just take over.
The hairpiece looks like the Orc one from the Hobbit line
As far as I know, Jestro is just crazy and wants to break everything.
That’s what Vladek did during the first wave, then he went off and conquered Ankoria.
The box art for the Ultimate sets makes me think these guys are from 2007 or something.
Well there is still a difference there. In story, Vladek did kind of manadge to take over Morcia, though not a permament rule as he was just pretending to look for the true king, and was whaiting for the turnaments so that he could then be crowned as the next king of Morcia by the kingdom’s laws. Thats the thing, he had manadge to take over the kingdom. But he did not want to just mach in with a huge army and them de-throne the king like any normal villain might have wanted, instead he imprisoned the king and then placed himself as the kingdom’s temporary ruler ither until the king was “found” or until the turnament was going to happend, where he could then take over the throne by law.

Yeah, he certainly does get brownie points for style.
Yeah, Jestro can magic himself up an army, though as we can see, they are just the basic crazy if not brainless minions (which explains the reason why he and the book are looking for a general) though with the hole general searching plot, i am betting that the story will no doupt introduce a general who is more powerful and inteligent for the role as main villain and will then take over the control over the lava monster army near the series final, i mean that is a weary likely plot that can happen. Don’t you think?
It’s a sensible plot point, but I don’t know that it will happen. Remember, this is going to be a comedy adventure, not an adventure with some comedic moments. Additionally, the writer mentioned that it would be “modern humor”
I’m more inclined to foresee a job interview style sequence in which Jestro and the book interview all of the current monsters. It’ll probably have a lot of -insert jokes about character’s one personality trait here- and -insert “I’m too dumb to know what a general is” joke-. Then, Jestro will be the interviewee and the book the interviewer. The book will rate jestro 100/8 and say a corny pun like “you score all A’s in my book!”
