The Virtues of Spinjitzu – Ninjago Shorts Compilation

in LEGO Ninjago

LEGO recently released the first twelve episodes of Season 15 of the LEGO Ninjago TV show titled Crystalized. You can watch the episodes here: Watch LEGO Ninjago Crystalized Episodes 1-12!

There is another interesting series of Ninjago shorts that we haven’t talked about yet, titled The Virtues of Spinjitzu, also known as Six Virtues. It was released between Season 14 and Season 15, though it actually takes place between The Island mini-series and Season 14. The shorts were created to promote the subtheme called Ninjago: Core, devoted to introducing young children to Ninjago with sets that stand on their own without show content.

Each of the shorts focuses on each of the ninja and revisit past Ninjago settings. The episode titled Curiosity focuses on Nya, but does not revisit any past location, as it is set in the Monastery of Spinjitzu. The episode titled Balance focuses on Cole and revisits the Pyro Vipers’ pyramid from Season 11. The episode titled Wisdom focuses on Lloyd and revisits Prime Empire’s Speedway Racetrack from Season 12. The episode titled Honesty focuses on Jay and revisits the Castle of Ice in the Never-Realm from Season 11. The episode titled Generosity focuses on Zane and revisits the Dungeons of Shintaro from Season 13. And the episode titled Courage focuses on Kai and revisits the Island of the Keepers from The Island.

Though the ninja are highly skilled, they are also young and can be undisciplined. As Master Wu tries to get them to appreciate the six virtues which are fundamental to Spinjitzu, something unexpected happens: he gets captured by a dragon! The ninja give chase to begin a thrilling adventure in which they return to familiar realms to face old enemies and learn important lessons about themselves. Watch the video to find out if the ninja can successfully rescue their beloved mentor.

It’s fun to remember scenes from some of the earlier episodes, isn’t it? And if you would like to check out the currently available LEGO Ninjago sets, you can also visit the LEGO Ninjago section of the Online LEGO Shop.

Custom LEGO Modulars with Alternate Builds

in Featured LEGO Creations

The LEGO Modular Building collection continues to be very popular with one new set added each year. Besides the official LEGO sets, LEGO fans themselves design and build their own custom Modular Buildings that are compatible with the series. Some of these custom builds are completely new creations, while others are alternate builds for either the official Modulars, or other LEGO sets.

Some LEGO fans share pictures and even instructions of their custom and alternate builds on their social media pages, own website, or Rebrickable.com. One website that is particularly interesting for fans of the LEGO Modular Buildings is Brickative.com, as the site’s sole focus is the Modulars. They provide downloadable building instructions for custom LEGO Modular Buildings as well as Modular street-compatible vehicles, landscaping modules, and more.

A recent category added to the Brickative.com website is called Alternate Builds. It features Modular Buildings that were made using pieces from official LEGO sets. Some of these are alternate builds for official LEGO Modular Buildings, while others are alternate builds for LEGO City, LEGO Creator, and LEGO Friends sets.

If you would like to build your own custom Modulars, alternate builds for existing LEGO sets are a great option. It eliminates the daunting task of searching for and purchasing parts individually. All you need is the official set and the downloadable instructions for the alternate build, and you’re ready to go! And of course, once the custom model is built, you can further tweak it to your liking with other pieces you may have.

If you’re interested, visit the Brickative.com website and look around their selection. And if you are missing some of the latest LEGO Modular Buildings, visit the LEGO Creator Expert section of the Online LEGO Shop.

What do you think? Do you collect the LEGO Modular Buildings? Have you ever built a custom Modular based on your own or someone else’s design? And what do you think of the alternate builds discussed here? Feel free to share in the comment section below!
