"This was my first Nexo Knights set, and it's really cool. Even if you don't have the game, the accessories are great! It has awesome Nexo Knights armor, stud shooters, laser bow, Nexo shield, helmet, goggles, bow and arrow, and four bananas! There is also a lot of spare ammo included. This set is also worth it for the game play, as I am yet to find a shield power that's as good as Banana Bombs! His transparent armor looks great, and I probably wouldn't have bought this set without it. It really gives the figure a techno look. The best reason to get this set though, is the minifigure: Aaron! He's a main character, (my personal favorite) and this is a very cheap set to get him in. The build is very durable, and not a bad deal for $10. There's nothing I don't like about this set!!! :)"
"I like the parts in this set and feel I can put most of them to good use in other projects.
I prefer the standard two-tone armor (signature color + metallic silver) for the knights to the transparent "ultimate" armor in this set.
The back piece is not well attached to the armor and seems to fall off every time I pick up the figure. I imagine it would be difficult to play with the figure without the back piece constantly falling off.
The Arrow Strike shield included in this set is one of my favorites to use in the related mobile device game, though I'm disappointed with the way it levels up with repeated scans. The ability IS more powerful with repeated scans, but it also takes significantly longer to charge up before you can use it, and has a significantly longer "cool down" time between when the ability stops working and when you can select/use any other ability. Basically, all the waiting and shield scanning doesn't translate to much benefit in the game."
I would recommend this to a friend!

It is great to see that you are enjoying the combined physical and digital play that LEGO NEXO KNIGHTS offers. While playing the game I too have discovered which Power Shields I enjoy using more than others and it is a fun journey to go down.
When you rescan powers they will become more powerful and the powering up and cooling down times do increase. It is going to be a delicate balance of making sure you use your powers at the right time. Do not worry though, Merlok 2.0 and Ava will help you discover more as you play the game.
