Early read · 0 reviews
Nexo Knights was LEGO®'s most underrated theme, and these power shield packs were the best $5 you could drop on it — 35 physical shields that also scanned into the app. Pure, weird, beautiful chaos.
Is the price fair?A+Dirt cheap for what's in the bag — this is the definition of a no-brainer purchase.
Will you love it?A+Thirty-five printed shields with a working app gimmick — the fun-per-dollar here is absurd.
Holds its value?C-The secondary market is soft; buy this to enjoy it, not to bank on it.

The Full Take
Nexo Knights never got the credit it deserved, and these shield packs are the clearest proof. Thirty-five uniquely printed pieces for next to nothing — each shield doubled as an in-app scannable power-up, which was a genuinely clever physical-digital gimmick that held up. The printing quality on these is sharp, the variety across the wave is real, and as a companion to the main sets they punched way above their weight. Collectors are now quietly hunting complete waves. The love and play grades are both maxed out for good reason — this is one of those sets where the concept and the execution actually matched.
