LEGO has released the official trailer for the upcoming season of LEGO Ninjago – The Island. Misako, Master Wu, and Clutch Powers has gone missing after going on an expedition and the ninjas are going to look for them on a brand new adventure. They encounter the Keepers of the Amulet and get captured but somehow get free. Along with the show, LEGO will also be releasing four sets based on the new season that will be released on March 1.

The LEGO Star Wars AT-ST Raider (75254) is currently on sale on Amazon for 20% off. Due to the recent news that Cara Dune’s actress, Gina Carano, is no longer part of the show, I have a feeling that this is the last time we’ll see the character in minifigure form, unless she is recasted in the future. I won’t get political here but if you’re wanting the set, I would suggest picking it up where you can find it due to many reseller groups telling their members to buy up all the stock to flip it.
