Planet Ripple Volume 9 is OUT! This one has a lot of new characters and ideas that I've had in the wings for about a decade, and it's so satisfying to finally get to them. It's become my favorite entry so far. Here are the Amazon www.amazon.com/dp/B0CWVHD3R7 and Itchio links. nick-on-planet-ripple.itch.io/planet-ripple-minnows-world-vol-9
Hello
W
RIP trans neon green colors.
probably the best lego colors
Yeah NGL loved the trans neon green and orange.
Not Sulfurix and Firox’s colors!
Thanks so much for the kind words in the video man! 2023 was definitely a wild year… we gotta catch up sometime!
Friends is THE place for slice of life LEGO sets. The architecture is on par with Icons and expert and the colouring has become subtle enough to fit right in with city. I prefer minifigs but that’s an easy fix.
I'm very excited for the upcoming friends space rover set, it's so pretty and neat looking
2023... Dreamzzz, Bonkle, Duck Brix, Sanic, it was a good year for Lego
Thanks for the shoutout, Nick! ❤️
I am stunned at how many 2023 sets you were able to pick up! It’s great seeing them all together here.
I admit, part of it has become this sorta insecure “nooo! They won’t believe I know what I’m talking about unless I demonstrate it on camera!” mentality
@@NickonPlanetRipple And honestly, fair enough! I feel that same way too a lot of the time, which I guess is why I don’t talk about modern LEGO all that much, haha.
Considering you mentioned a fan-made remake of that old Rock Raiders game, I'm genuinely shocked you didn't mention the music collab between Cryoshell and Essenger last year, and its use in the trailer for Bionicle: Masks of Power (or really, just B:MoP in general).
I... figured I'd wait to talk about the game until there was at least a playable demo, which should be sometime this year.
I remember when they hevily implied that stone wariors would be the last enemy in ninjago
My initial theory about Dreamzzz was that the Nightmare King was an old man in a coma, who holds onto what control of the Dream world he has. Because the moment he let's go of the dream world, he dies.
Also, I really did buy enough Sonic sets to get one of each character, just so I could recreate moments from the fandubs :]
I always saw Bionicle as a kid as this far off land beyond Lego. A land of giant warriors from an ancient time, towering over the normal lego characters but were still peaceful and mortal; like the Transformers of the lego universe.
To many who see my comments on Bionicle videos you probably see me constantly wish they'd bring it back again but that's not entirely true. I don't want them to just bring it back but to bring back it's spirit. The true fun of bionicle wasn't the toys, the gimmick or really even the characters (although they were all cool tbh) but the story, the mystery, the legends. The fact lego is still referencing it as this "legendary place of dreams" is something that I honestly am excited for.
Not as a straight up revival but the spirit to carry over to other sets as a legend. Even if it's in Ninjago, dreamzzz or something else. To take that mystery and put it in another series would be amazing! But to stop this fanboy rant going too long; I hope that lego keeps it going; even if bionicle never returns; as long as it's storytelling exists in some way in another set. I'm happy. Because I believe kids today deserve that sense of wonder!
Can't believe I'd missed Knuckle's shoes being actual lego now, that's great XD
I agree, lego friends is a hidden gem!
Also, friends sets are minifig compatible, a lot of people just don't realize it!
Oh yeah, you can definitely fit minifigs in there. I was just saying Friends slight upscale makes a big difference in how detailed the builds can be.
If it wasn’t a pricing issue, I feel they should add minifigs for the friends characters! I would buy a lot more of their sets if I had compatible minifigs, plus a lot of their designs would simply be so good to port over!
I remember hearing a vague mention of the fluorescent pigment in the trans-neon colors being unfriendly for the environment in some way, but I have no idea what the source is and I might just be misremembering a similar thing I heard about the vacuum metalized chrome pieces.
I'm so glad someone else brings up the 2019 Friends sub. I really enjoyed that set
Me too. It's such a solid build, with loads of play scenario. Even that map is fun!
Re: the Amy's -Animal Rescue Island- Chao Garden set: THANK YOU for defending it. I made it a point to make that my first LEGO Sonic set so I could get that and the Death Egg Robot in order to get all the minifigs for year 1 sans repeats (and I like that LEGO has enough faith in the Shadow bike and Knuckles vs Rouge sets selling on their own to not shove Sonic or Tails in them), but I wasn't expecting it to be such a fun play set. Kinda like it more than the DER, really.
I did not have space revitalization on my 2024 bingo card.
I got my first Dreamzzz set yesterday and I am all for this theme. Not only do I get major Lego Universe vibes, while previous original themes were boy centric, this is a perfect middle. I got the stable for $40 and it is everything. The deer, the stable, the figures. I really hope this theme beats the three wave rule and becomes even better.
Dreamzzz really is one of the most interesting new themes to come to Lego in years. i got 3 from the first wave and 1 from the 2nd wave, hope it gets expanded on further since it really mixes things up in a unique and creative way.
also i purposefully made them all in my own "C" versions, since the theme facilitates alt building very well.
Lego Dreamzzz is fantastic. I only miss one set from each wave. The creativity reminds me on Hidden Side, but than a bit more colourful. Makes me feel like I'm 7 years old again and makes me dream everything is possible in life. Love Dreamzzz
Totally agree about Friends and especially the Return of Racer
It's so weird to realize how little I've been keeping up with Lego's in-house themes lately. i think it hit me hardest during the section on Ninjago. i really like the direction they're taking it though, it's great
Also DUCKBRICKS ON LEGO MASTERS HOLY SHIT?????
I’m surprised you didn’t mention the updated Eldorado Fortress
The what, now?
@@NickonPlanetRipple Set number 10320, the companion piece to Barracuda Bay 21322. It came out in Summer of ‘23 as an updated version of the Pirate theme’s Eldorado Fortress from 1989.
There were so many sets in 2023. It's impossible to feature all of them in one rewind episode
I finally got my hands on the GWP Tahu for Christmas and he's genuinely one of the most charming LEGO sets I've built in a while. I'd love for LEGO to expand on that style of figure and general set set-up sometime in the future for something, Bionicle or otherwise.
5:55 it took me way too long to realize these were _bed bugs_ and I just love that pun.
(They also look like enemies from an indie game, but that could be said for many things in this theme.)
3:07 IN THE TOWN, WHERE I WAS BORN...
17:25 that's actually a good point. I didn't see it as either a Friends set or a Chao Garden when I built it recently. But I totally see the latter interpretation. Thanks for sharing that and other set details, I am enjoying half of the Sonic sets so far and now I have more reason why.
Friends is now the best LEGO theme.
17:35 Thank you! I thought I was going crazy that no one else noticed that
Friends is such an underrated theme. Especially with the reboot, the sets are so cool looking some could honestly pass as small modular sets. I’m low-key considering getting that new mansion set.
Always glad when Lego rewind has an installment
Dang... Snoic, classical dragons, AND a nod to the Imperium of Man...? Wish I was a kid again.
Snoic the HegHoghe
I’m so upset about the retirement of trans-neon colors. Those were my favorite colors and they’re so much better than the duller versions. I’d really like to know the reason behind this decision.
Also: Yay Ross’ Game Dungeon reference!
With regards to the Dreamzzz sets specifically…I always got major Time Cruisers vibes from them; Super chaotic on the surface, but somehow still managing to gel together nicely in the end.
Also, if what you’ve said and shown so far about the Racing subseries of LEGO City is true…then I must say that it makes me hopeful we may one day see the return of the Tiny Turbos line in some form.
The missing Chao mold will hopefully be included with Cream the Rabbit in a future set, maybe a reference to Team Rose from "Sonic Heroes". Big the Cat will be a Bigfig with Froggy and his iconic fishing rod.
13:50 I had the blue one as a kid.
Great to see you doing well Nick, thanks for the great content as always
I loved the show and sets for dreams
Manic Miners is amazing! So much fun. Made me appreciate the Rock Raiders theme a lit more
I bought the Dreamzzz Turtle Van set expecting to keep it in regular van mode but ended up keeping it as a turtle. It’s just so cute and fun
silently praying that lego will make an e-123 omega especially now considering that we have shadow and rouge as minifigures
i'd love to see them attempt metal madness/metal overlord too considering just how big he is
I've been looking forward to this, I always learn a lot of stuff from these :)
I love that I'm not the only one who saw the Ninjago Empress in her mech and thought "yeah, that's just a Sister of Battle from Warhammer". Just need to find a way to MOC the dragon in the set into a Keeper of Secrets...
I always really enjoy watching your thoughts and looking back on the past year in Lego. Often I forget just how much happened over the year. Great episode as always!
I look forward to this video every year.
the Ross's Game Dungeon intro bit you pull took me out for a good few seconds lol bravo
Fantastic video!
Always love watching Lego rewind the nostalgia for every past theme is great from so many years
The yearly summaries have been very helpful for my catching up on how Lego's changed since my interest in it last reawoke to such an extent - they're far more informative than just looking through catalogues or shelves, and it's all just because one person giving his point of view on stuff allows for an ectra layer of perspective to an otherwise straightforward history lesson, and that's valuable for having smth to contrast my own views on them. Neat, and thanks for the resource!
AYYYYYY great to see a rewind video!!!!!!
Good job on the video!
Yeah, 2023 was a really good year for Lego products.
You've outdone yourself with this one, I didn't even know there were sonic sets coming out before I watched this! Honestly it's just a good watch, keep em coming!
I'd best describe Dreamzzz as being a zany mix of Chima-style action with a mix of fantasy/magic/science.
It has a few Adventure Time-like comparisons...It has become one of LEGO's cartooniest non-license themes in recent years...
Wonderful use of Sonic RoboBlast2's music.
Loyds mech makes me thing of ktongu from web of shadows
This is one of my only comments on RUclips but I just had to express how much I love the format of these videos. Rewind is just pure fun and I can’t get enough of it. I’m nearing the end of the rewind binge and I’m genuinely upset
Don't worry, I'm working on the next episode already.
It was a very interesting year for Lego for sure
Lego Friends be eating City’s lunch
👏👏 well done and well worth the wait.
You perfectly summarize something that's been creeping in my mind over the last few months and that is lately Legos original themes have been really starting to kick licenses in the butt.
They seem fresher, more innovative, and friendly to actual imagination rather than just "consuming"
Also...... I don't know if it was just me, but I could swear there was a ross scott reference in the intro.
There was.
@@NickonPlanetRipple I KNEW IT!!
I freaking love Freeman's mind, as well as his other content.
Heh, that's funny, anyways, great video 👍
@@timebomb42The idea was covering Manic Miners (and other games) got my wires crossed, hehe.
2023 goes hard frfr ong no cap
Very nice to hear SRB2 songs!
I would have never have guessed the 2023 rewind special would be uploaded on my birthday!
I laugh out of hapines more that i expected so yeah i see 2023 as an absolute win
Hey Nick! Long time fan, have been watching since 2014-2015!
As someone who is getting back into Lego, what’s the best way to keep up to date with Lego’s product line? It doesn’t seem like they have the Lego Catalogue anymore (my most reliable source of new Lego/Bionicle product updates as a kid) so what’s the next best thing? Do they have a newsletter? An online notification system alerting you of new drops?
Love watching you and your Rewinds!
I'm afraid I don't know. :(
Ah, it's the most wonderful time of the year~
Nice vid bro
I liked your AccursedFarms reference at the beginning!
One thing I've never heard people say about Lego Sonic is that I think the rings being so big is a reference to the Power Rings from Satam.
My favorite annual tradition!
Godamn that Lego Sonic line is beautiful
Nice Ross's game dungeon reference
Dreamz gives me Lego universe vibes
Yay, he’s alive!
Nice king Ohger mecha
O new episode!
LEGO Sonic the Hedgehog does what LEGO Super Maridon't.
I bought the dreamz van because it’s basically a Volkswagen van
I think a workaround for trans-neon orange can be backing the duller trans orange with red. I'm unsure how well that works in recreating the color.
I would love to see a behind the seceded of your whole collection
Unfortunately, most of it is stored in totes at any given time. I just don't have much display space.
If I had a nickel for every time a Ninja series had a next generation soft reboot I would have two nickels which isn't a lot but's weird it happened twice. also the Shadow Bike Damn!
I’m a simple man. I see Lego rewind, I click.
Something I like about Friends introducing a different scale is that it also encourages more creativity. I think a lot of fans can feel pressured to make everything minifig scale, so introducing the Friends scale encourages them to experiment a bit more, while still being able to populate their creations with customizable figs.
Ninjago did such an amazing job with the imperium. I want more sets focusing on them. I’m sad that we don’t have more of them. I’ve been hoping for a new imperial dragon. Maybe I’ll build one myself.
Unfortunately, as LEGO keeps saying, bad guys just don’t sell
The one thing that disappointed me with the sonic theme is they didn’t take the opportunity to put eggman’s numerous boss machines in every set

"2023 was a _great_ year for Lego sets! And 2024 is off to a _strong_ start!"
Y'know...if you can actually afford to buy Lego sets...
.......oh
Let's go!!! Here's a comment for the algorithm
I found it kind of odd that Lego created a submarine set around the same time when the titan submarine imploded.
Lego really loves 40k don't they. I keep finding myself working on videos then needing to learn about Warhammer and 40k.
I'll treasure the one time they made a good real robot theme tho
EYY, you watch Ross's game dungeon too, I KNEW that where you picekd up the REvenant games soundtrack for the Vikings video :D
Hell yeah
Don’t forget Rama and Deus Ex!
YES finally someone else thats not into the whole no studs thing!
Friends reboot...Jurassic Park 30th anniversary...DreamZzz...Sonic the Hedgehog...Ninjago Dragons Rising...Indiana Jones comeback...Bionicle GWP...
What a year!
, I’m not gonna lie. I really enjoyed the ninjas design in the series. Like the dragons look amazing the design of the ninjas look amazing to meet this new Ninjago thing in my opinion is probably better has that same feeling of the original in my opinion
Remember, if Dreamzzz doesn't sell well this year, it dies after 2025. So show your support.
Man I forgot how great those Prime Empire sets looked. I left Ninjago at the 2013 wave (though I picked up an Overlord Dragon since it fits with the rest) but I've heard some good things about some later sets. Sadly the only 2023 set I bought was the Marvel Minifigures Series 2. (Though Tahu and Takua are on my radar as well as Tails' Workshop)
Always a good day when nick uploads!
My bionicle collection is growing at a rapid rate please help
actually a sonic ad venture secuel and remakes are comming.
based intro
Only thing I didn't like about Lego this year was how expensive everything felt. I really wanted to go all in on the hobby this year, but never did cuz the prices for even small sets was completely unobtainable for someone who has a tiny human to raise.
9:44 aaaand I’m depressed, lol
I just wanted to mention how well Ninjago Dragons rising handled Sora's story with her parents in season 1. It's kinda rare for a kids how top take such a mature approach to a depiction of what it's like to have parents indoctrinated to a harmful ideology. The fact that the season ends with her seeing her parents again and doesn't have them make up is pretty surprising. her parents are presented with clear evidence the Empress they worship is fraud and a liar and they still deny reality and insist she must have a good reason to be so evil. And Sora holds to her convictions and still rejects them, choosing the family who treat her with care and respect rather than ones who abused and neglected her.
Its just always shocking to me how Mature Ninjago manages to be sometimes. I mean the show had Beatrix assassinate her own father on screen, in show nominally aimed at children.
Ninjago is the new Bionicle.
Can you please put a note in 2024 review for the Formula 1 sets that have come out (March) and potentially the June/July Aston Martin set for Speed Champions? Feels strange that there has been an explosion of Formula 1 and Formula E sets in the past two years.
Loved this recap ❤
I don’t know much about cars….
