There will soon also be a ship people mower. Look for Ninjago Destiny's Bounty.

I thought all the Ninjago dragons were pretty neat for medieval fantasy uses. Some of the new weapons are cool.

Soon I will have all four (hopefully). I can already say that the ice and earth dragon are pretty cool.

Yeah, no kidding. Since when have they had Naga legs?

No Mayan-themed set line for 2012? Bummer.

Conquest is a good idea though, that would be pretty fun. And llamas!

Has anyone got any Dino sets yet? The Dino fighter... science... people? Whatever the minifigs are supposed to be doing with the dinosaurs look pretty cool. And of course I want a bunch of raptors and T-Rex.

Eh, I don't really like the POOP dinosaurs. Not my thing.

I guess series 6 figures are out in Europe now.

Agreed, the older POOP dinosaurs looked pretty cool, but these look like some of the most generic, uninspired POOP pieces I've seen in a while. Although the pterodactyl looks pretty good for cavalry.

Well from what I've seen, I kind of like the Dino Rifles.
It looks gun-ish enough, IS ACTUALLY MOLDED SO A MINIFIG CAN HOLD IT PROPERLY!!!, and you could easy swap the syringe for a beam saber-hilt scope.

Plus, a free syringe to use in other places.

Yeah, I'm expecting a lot of scifi/modern guys here to grab those guns and turn them into sniper rifles soon :)

Indeed, it's a win-win!

You could easily just put the new-ish black telescope pieces on the rifles to make a sniper scope. They match the Star Wars rifles, too, so that's kind of a plus.

Yeah, I can see a lot of use for those dino rifles, even though I don't have any yet. As for the dinosaurs, I actually like them. The Triceratops set is my favorite, and I could see many uses for it.
