As is mine.

I think a lot of the problem is that they released too many per wave.

And the downright ridiculous price.

And the fact they don’t even look very good.

Well, you have a $4 minifig and about a 3 or $4 build.

However, you are also paying for DLC in a mobile game.

But you can scan them online like a pleb. :calling: :computer:

I don’t do this

Especially since I use the app to keep track of which ones I own

Which feels wholly underwhelming for the price tag imo, a minifig, a glorified stand and some underwhelming gimmicks, if they were closer to say, $5, maybe it would be kinda worth the money, but $10+ is frankly highway robbery.

If they were only $5 or so, I’d actually would have picked some up. But at the $10+ price, heck no.

I personally think they’d have to be at least $7 considering the minifig alone would almost be 4-$5.

This^

I mean, there are a few Ultimates that I do really like (and will get) like Axl. But I just think they are too overpriced to collect for me, I’d rather get the sets imo

That’s why I said 5$ or so. The minifig series packs are $4, but only come with the minifig and an accessory or two. Then there are the Star Wars micro-builds which are $10, the same price as the Nexo Knights packs. Then there also are the non-ultimate $10 Nexo Knights sets with a vehicle and two minifigs. All that said, unless someone specifically wants the Ultimate sets, they are much more likely to go with either the wider recognized Star Wars sets, or the more economical price per piece sets that are they non-ultimate Nexo Knights sets. A $7-$8 price-point would me much more enticing to the general consumer.

This is probably the lowest I think it could get with Lego still making a worthwhile profit.

The good thing is that most of them are $8 for sale on Amazon

Even this is an overprice. I remember when they were ~$2.50 where I live

I agree with most here. The Ultimate sets don’t give you what you’re paying for. All of the other $9.99 LEGO sets (even the two generic army builder 9.99 Nexo Knights playsets) have a decent vehicle/background thing and one-two minifigures.

Okay, I’m debating between two sets: should I get Infernox captures the Queen, or Aaron’s new ride thingamajigger V2?

1853

get Infernox, at least you get three named figures. Aaron, the queen and Infernox.

instead of the other set which only gives you, Aaron, a squire bot and a winged warrior.

1854

Minifigures aren’t the most important part of a set you know. They’re pretty much all the same, just with different prints.

Aaron’s plane crossbow thing is ultimately a better build and is more worth your money because of its play features and unique concept. Also, you get wings for minifigures, a piece that I really like.

1855

I disagree. Ultimates get you one exclusive minifigure, a small layout about the size (albeit not the volume) of other $10 sets, 3 Nexo Powers and with the wave one figures at least, you get some rarer parts as part of the “backpack” (Clay’s mixel joints or Macy’s six-stud-shooter).

1856

One opinion, against all of ours. Looks like you brought a “knife” to a “gun” fight. :wink:

Edit: I can see what you’re saying though, but it still feels like you’re getting cheated.
