      hello, as a kid i watched a lego short animation on youtube and forgot its name, it was about the heros in mech suits that while digging a tunnle they find a nest of monsters, the monsters were dragons and such. basically the main plot was that the big monster mother was trying to protect the eggs from outsiders, if you know or can find anything about it can you reply to me/make a video about it? im only asking you since you seem to know a lot about lego stuff. thank you!

      ​@loganjohnson2463 I definitely agree, I wish the new sets still used the old complex play features. Remember when the vehicles actually transformed instead of featuring an alternate build? Personally, I think Ninjago has peaked (on a technical level) with the Legacy remake of Destiny's Bounty. The Legacy line in general was amazing, too bad it was so short-lived...

    A few things:
    "Failed reboot attempts" is not a thing. Every TMNT series is a new Turtle universe.
    87 was a big hit.
    The original movies were a hit.
    2003 series was a hit.
    That was before these sets.
    It's kinda like Super Hero comics where they reboot in a slightly different universe every now and then except each new series is its own thing basically. That's TMNT.

    • @LeopoldLitchenstein
      @LeopoldLitchenstein 12 дней назад

      @@gbrogo7139 Actually, part of why the 2007 movie didn't get a sequel was because the Astro Boy movie the same animation studio made a couple years later flopped and they shut down as a result (they were an indie studio).
      The Bay movies were fundamentally flawed and the second one released in a busy summer, so it was buried.

    I remember as a kid that there was basically a year wait between wave 1 and 2, and I remember that being a big problem for me, as I wanted more, but Lego just wasn’t making any.
    Also, I feel like there wasn’t enough character variety. I remember that I specifically wanted them to make Rahzar and Mutagen Man, but they just kept making more Shredders and Foot Soldiers. Half of the new characters in the second wave just were not very desirable (Spyder-Bytez was only in one episode, and Kirby Bat wasn’t in very many either), and the movie sets only had one new character, which was Vern (not very desirable). Yes, there were new versions of the older characters, but back then, I really just wanted to get a variety of different characters and not the same ones with different designs.

      TMNT 07 had potential but I believe that was a flop. 2012 is THE PEAK imo the best animated series of the turtles it combines everything the previous iterations have and just builds upon it greatly the brotherly dynamic is the best within this one and the sheer character development is crazy.

    It failed because they used the wrong turtles. They should have based all the sets on the original series, instead they picked the least popular, ugliest version of the turtles.

    OMG I DID NOT KNOW MICHAEL BAY MADE THAT MOVIE?? No wonder it did awful, I have seen his Transformers movies and omg they're sh*t and he clearly did no research into Transformers so I'm glad his TMNT movie did bad.

      Michael Bay is basically the Roland Emmerich of the 2010s. Cashgrab movies based on franchises he doesn't have a remote idea about due to writing it off as "for stupid people"
      Godzilla 1997 is the Toho/Kaiju fandoms equivalent of Michael Bay Transformers for Transformers fans.
