Demonesque podracer
" Build
The build was easy and involved fairly standard techniques. There is obviously a lot of technic present to build a sturdy frame for this vehicle but not a whole lot of SNOT-techniques. The build makes for a sturdy frame although it sometimes lowers the overall look of the model because of all the technic-pieces shining through (i.e. blue connector pins).
The build of Macys mecha-horse was highly enjoyable with a neat end result. These mecha horses looks awesome!
Functions
The catapult works okay, pushing a technic axle throws pieces in a narrow arch. The other big function is more noteworthy: two orange chains can be pulled by rotating a centered round piece resulting in the two big red spherical demons (opening and closing their big maws one at the time. Great fun!
Minifigures
Firstly, this set involves Macy! Macy seems like a though knight with a big crushing mace that you actually build. The printing is awesome and her second face is really neat. Can't say much about the Nexo-powers involved aince I haven't played much.
The demonic beast master looks good and a brown cap seems appropriate for a beast master. Nice comical alternative face!
Pieces
I haven't heard much praise for the pieces involved so let me state something highly important to me: this set contains awesome printed pieces! First and foremost: the big red spherical demons are printed and are different from each other. They are detailed and really cool, they remind me of something straight ou of a Mario-game. You also get two small printed orange demonic beasts that are chained to the beast master: these are also awesome as the prints are great. Lastly you get almost a handful small red demons printed on small spherical pieces that are intended to be launched with the catapult. I can't even imagine the horror of small children loosing these precious pieces when they are launched through an entire home. Additionally you also get orange chains, printed trans-orange "rocky" plates and other goodies.
Overall
I honestly like the look of the bad guys in Nexo knights, the demonic look works great and is more appealing to me than then big sets with the good guys. I would recommend to leave some stickers out since "less is more" when it comes to the back of the chariot. Bold design that delivers, although it's not perfect! "

Irrational love - Coruscant Police Gunship
" Overall design
One thing that is really nicely integrated in this set is all the different angles. Most noteworthy is of course the angle of the cockpit but apart from this you have som sleak angles counteracting the cockpit as well. The back wings and the front wings feels just right, both the angles and the overall shape.
This set has a truly magnificent color scheme: a warm blue that really complements the different shades of grey. What really made this set outstanding in this regard was the generous inclusion of so many translucent red pieces including two cockpit pieces. The color scheme really fits the theme and screams out "Police Gun Ship!".
Functions and play features
The cockpit is easy to open and you can easily store the two shocktroopers on a tray that is clipped into the fusilage.
I've seen some comments about the troop carrying space being to small but I could easily fit one clone trooper sitting down with a big gun and have the two jedis stand in the doorways. You could probably fit one or two guys more since you can also make them stand on a small wing under the doorways.
There are two shootable projectiles (noteably in the more elusive blue colour) of the kind that goes through the entire apartment and hits your neigbour in the back of his head. A recommendation is to leave them out until you have your protective googles ready.
The two front wings at the bottom "folds" up when the model is sitting on something and "folds" down when you pick it up, really neat feature!
Minifigures
Ashoka is lovely but not unique to this set if I get it correctly (I think the same figure is in the Umbaran UHC). Anakin is really nice two but the greatest surprise was the lovely red printing (leg printing included) on the two unique shocktroopers included. They are really a treat!
Conclusion
I've never reviewed any set on lego.com before even though I've built lots and lots over the years but somehow this set has really gotten to me, like som childish infatuation. I honestly picked it up as a side order but when I started to build it I just fell in love with it. It's a really solid set and I simply love it: the colour scheme is awesome and the overall design is just fantastic. It's not an extraordinary idea for a set but it's just so well executed!
Bosses at Lego, make sure to give the designer of this set a real nice bonus for christmas (edible or not) because he or she really earned it! "
