I can put a curved line next to a straight line to.

Doesn't change that those black things don't look like lego swords.

And since we've yet to see this "foot clan" even in the same zip code as a sword in the set pictures with them in full costume, but we HAVE seen then holding tactical batons, pardon me if I seem a bit more than skeptical.

Don't bother trying to argue with samx, guys. It'll never end.

BTW, my head hurts from trying to read his posts. I feel like I've just read a novel written by Bizarro.

The cartoon sets have Foot Soldiers carry ball and chain flails, don't trust the Lego sets to carry accurate weaponry.

No. Look closer. The part between the ball and handle is a chain ( seriously how can you not see that?) therefore it is a flail, not a mace.

Completely different weapons.

but Lego does not have a "mace" they would use the piece shown as a mace that's what Lego does.

For Lego it is??? You're really that adamant that Lego has no idea what they're doing. And that this movie will never see ninja foot ever???

I'm just giving evidence??? and your guys and digging so deep to disprove this. Why??? Because this movie really has to be as terrible as you say?

I mean come on you are the one mocking me. Saying that I was looking for evidence, and finding none. I found some and to any Lego fan its pretty simple The foot have swords. Thus they should have swords in the movie, they give them accessories to match what they could and have used in the TV and movies.

Lego has gone out of there way to create fabulous TMNT sets that are accurate and all around great sets.

Yes yes they have certainly looks like a normal hand held mace to me one a ninja would be sure to use.


I just can't believe that you're so sure this movie will fail that every amount of evidence no matter how substantial, is silly to you.

Lego just isn't a accurate source, that's all. The Iron Man 3 sets proves that with the final showdown of Iron Man vs. Mandarin and Mandarin being in the helicopter attacking Tonys home.

The playmates Movie Foot figure do not come with a sword according to sources we've read, they will come with a rifle, a hand gun and a knife.

This has nothing to do with the complaints about the live itself, but the usage of Lego for reference. The cartoon sewer play set from Lego had a Bradford minifig and a exploding wall feature. It's all for play value.

Oh, you wanna play that way. Okay, I'll play. The Lego katana swords are as long as a entire Lego mini figure, no normal katana is that long. Mikey's chucks? The chain is massive and way too long compared to his body, and then there's the handles that are as big as Eskrima sticks, not very accurate on scale there either. Raph's Sai are massive as well in comparison.

And all that is moot, because Lego is ( I think you have noticed this by now) heavily stylized figures, scale is an issue. And shock oh shock, they don't need to use the exact same build as Azog's mace, they could use a shorter handle. There is many ways of making a mace instead of using a flail, but that's not the problem. The flail situation was just to showcase that Lego might not be a reliable source for looking at what accessories the characters will use in the proper media.

The Figures are one wave of potentially multiple wave worth of movie figures and play sets.

The point is the mace he uses in the movie is a much larger then a basic hand held mace. That is why it apears so large in comparison to the the figure. The Point I'm making is generally Lego uses the "flail" as there "mace" in most sets. But for the most part in license theme sets, the figures generally have the correct accessories.

Fact is the sword-ed Foot ninja is in two sets the other set looks as if the two foot Do in fact have rifles. They look to either be brick built or their newer "firing" guns (the ones they use in the new starwars set) Why have both??? I just think its odd to use the couple of set of photo from the Movie set as the end all be all Source for what the movie will hold throughout the entire movie.

There has been evidence there will be Japanese aspect and "ninja" involved with the foot. But certain people argue that its not going to happen, that there is no evidence. I have given evidence and every time I do it is cast off and called stupid or false or grasping at straws. I know Lego this is something I'm SUPER confident about.

I understand My post are hard to Read, I dont like making excesses so I wont I admit I'm terrible at typing, and I'm sorry you feel I'm and idiot who doesn't know what he is talking about. I know very little about superfluous things to me. I know stupid amount of stupid crap, but of those things I know turtles, I know Lego, and I know movies.

But, the counter point is. Lego makes sets for play value. Accuracy might vary. The Lego movie Foot might have swords because they are toys, it doesn't prove or disprove what variation of weaponry the Foot will be using in the movie.

Maybe they do use swords in the film, maybe they don't. ( it'll be pretty boring if they don't if it's only melee weapons vs. guns) the problem is using Lego sets for evidence of what's to be in the movie. They can add lots of things that aren't present in the film for added play features. It's done before.


Edit. And it's not about you or your typing ability, I'm just arguing about using Lego sets for 100% accuracy! when they do take liberties.

But when it comes to their TMNT licensed them they keep it with in the bounds of what they may use in the show and or movie. Iron man was different and really the only Lego theme to have had something so completely different from the source.

I'm just saying while Lego is not 100% accurate it can give some insight into whats going to happen in the movie, and that includes the individuals within the sets. The truck set comes with Leo, Raph, April, Karai, and Two foot it looks from the pictures that all three Karai and the to foot will have ninja style weapons. if they were to be the military they would most likely be given gun and weapons Similar to the MOS lego sets

I could be wrong but I Doubt it.

But certain Individual have to admit that there is evidence that the foot will not just be "Black ops military bros" there know enough evidence to prove this is not fact

But they have taken liberties with previous TMNT sets. The evidence of Foot carrying swords aren't all that strongly as compared if Playmates Movie Foot had a sword.

If anything it leans more to "Maybe" then "Confirmed".

And people are using the karai figure as a confirmation because Lego is using Karai in a set. It works both ways. What is it can you use Legos as a source of confirmation or not???

Karai was speculated way earlier then the Lego sets, by spotting a woman dressed in combat-like clothes that wasn't Fox in the set pictures, and Minae Noji confirming her activity with the movie back in October.(?)
