It seems out of place, because it's a current set, available now 71722 . But yes, it looks awesome!
^ It's been out for several months!

Wow whoops I need to get with the times! Too many sets released for me to keep up with them like I used to.
Those small €10 starter sets are nice for sure.
where is the tournament of elements, boulder blaster and titan mech? they also got officially revealed
and the jay vs snake
The small sets look decent, but they dropped the ball with the Ninja Charger IMO. The original looked a lot better.

The original one looks more accurate to the show but this one look really cool as well.

So we're getting all Ninja's as "Golden" 10-year collectible versions in different sets, 20 years Star Wars-Style!

Those images were published without any accreditation on Instagram while these originate from a legitimate source.
In the small sets, they each have a small build with 2x2 round bricks at the bottom. Sorta looks like an electric toothbrush. What are those supposed to be?
Where's Nya ?!
Will have to grab that Golden Cole.
Definitely going to have to pick up the golden variants, the Ninja Charger looks super sleek, and the box design for the $10 sets is interesting.
What rock fortress thing? I don't see it in the article.
^ 71722 from this year was accidentally put in the article at first, but has since been removed.
That charger looks disgusting, extremely disappointed with that... oh well, nothing a couple of mods couldn’t fix. Where’s the gardens at?
@Bhahouighf Not for no reason, it's just a matter of preference. I personally dislike the new set because I prefer the overall shaping of the old one and the way the shooters and bike launching mechanism were incorporated. I will concede that the new one does a better job of covering up gaps and the underlying structure though.
Some of these look like Repeats but with new colours & different Heads & weapons..
That new Rattla minifigure is quite nice. I don't think it's as good as the original, which I still think was the best Serpentine, but the lighter blue is really nice and can add some variety to armies, and it looks much better than the Venamari redesigns from other Legacy Sets.
It's not shown here, but the Legacy version of Tournaments comes with three more of the Elemental Masters, including my favorite: Jacob Pevsner, Master of Sound! Really nice to finally get them.
The gold ninja collectibles are brilliant. I might have to collect the whole wave just for them.

That's because most of these are the "Legacy" sets based on classic characters and vehicles, which this coming year in particular will be celebrating a full 10 years of the Ninjago theme.
The golden Cole figure in the X-1 Ninja Charger hits different after Cole's voice actor since the start of the series, Kirby Morrow, passed away yesterday. I'm assuming all the ninja (or at least all of the original four) will be getting variants like this in the sets, but the fact that this one in particular is the first we get official pictures of... it pulls at the heartstrings a little.
That golden ninja looks brilliant! Can’t believe it’s been ten years (ten years)!!!!!
No sign of speed champions yet...

Well actually, the show version was modeled on the original set, not the other way around.
Once again Nya doesn’t get a small set-neither does Lloyd this time, but he pretty much never gets omitted from those.
Cool how the first accredited image of a set with a gold Ninja includes Cole; RIP Kirby Morrow.
The (new?) flaming katana is an A+.
That is sad to read about Kirby Morrow.
Oh, look, a red car with golden wheels for Ninjago...
Yes, we've seen it before but that doesn't matter, the target audience hasn't.
RIP Kirby Morrow, so far nothing over here interest me.
I’m stoked that black windscreen part is back!! Those are fetching ludicrous prices on BL now I can complete a few of my F1 car Mocs!
Those battle sets are really interesting! I love the new hypnobrai figure and all the ninja have such unique designs. Such a shame there ain't some love for Nya (my favourite, at least in terms of minifigs) and Lloyd or even Wu. I would've loved to see more of these awesome ninja minifigures!

@mr_Fikou agreed on all points. It’s also kind of sad considering that they left out the Stone Warriors and Anacondrai Cult. Still, it’s nice that they’ve started acknowledging that the Venomari and Python aren’t the only Serpentine we’ve had.
Set 71733 was in our local bookshop:

This is I nice remake of the original set. I like how the gaps have filled a bit more and that black windscreen!! The inclusion of five minifigures adds to the (play) value along with the motorcycle. Having cole as the 1st anniversary gold figure is a great tribute and wonderful exclusive. I missed out on the 1st release, I'll be getting this.
