- I recently took a trip to Europe where I bought some European-exclusive LEGO Magazines - Ninjago, Marvel, LEGO City, & More! These magazines feature exclusive LEGO Polybags with minifigures and builds, as well as Ninjago Trading Cards!

I've been working on this video for a while, it feels good to finally release it I hope you all enjoy!
im french and i get the french magazines but they release one month after the english ones, and 2 month after the german ones 😭
Im belgian and i find them in Carrefour in lier
Hey Mind you should pick up some of the comic books
I buy This magazines in sweden
I live in sweden
It's always fun to see Americans react to the magazines like they are the best thing ever, when over here they have become a normal part of Lego fan experience. Like, I'm pretty sure half of Polish Lego CZcams consist of magazine reviews.
Same in the uk
Do you watch Maciek i klocki
@@hackermt9269 no i watch whome ever uploads first
@@Legendary-locomotives ok
@@Legendary-locomotivesmost of the ninjago figures I have are from magazines
In Poland, they cost only about $4 (of course, earnings are also different, but it's still a good price). Currently, hardly anyone buys sets for figures here, because they will appear in magazines later anyway. When the 212th clone figure was added to the lego star wars magazine, some people bought 40 of these and built their own armies
I can’t imagine my lego collection without the magazines.
I have so many figures that I got cheap in the magazines.
Fr they're giving so good minifigures in the magazines like Oni Garmadon
9:11 I never thought I'd see Woozle in a video like this.
As an european, these magazines are awesome, but realistically I don't buy them for the magazine itself but rather just for the cheap minifigure, the magazine is just a cool bonus with the minifigure
I remember when ALL of these magazines were £3.50 no matter WHAT they came with😭😭😭
Now THATS a dream right there
i am proud to be able to just go down to the local shop and get one of these , just got the core one that comes in the tin, costed me £7 😭
I’m jealous
I really agree with the point that the magazines are an amazing entry point for LEGO fans. Something cheap yet substantial is always a plus!
Not all of the magazines are £5/$5/5 euro, for example, the Ninjago legacy ones can be £7 sometimes, but then normal Ninjago ones might be £4.75, it's very weird pricing, and I'm guessing it depends on if the minifigure is hard to make or has a lot of pieces. Good video though!
u can read the price at the top unless they were on sale, funny he says 5 everytime when it says 5,99
2:55 The trading cards used to come in the English magazines but as the trading cards weren’t as successful in England as they were elsewhere they stoped making English versions
for me the German magazines are normal because i live in Austria (Austria is a neighboring country of Germany where they also speak German) fortunately we have Ninjago cards 😅
Now the magazines already cost 6 euros
Hallo aus Deutschland
I don't know why but Austrian magazines are always more expensive than German magazines
It’s so wild to me that people don’t have access to these 😭
I am only one who saw your comment💀
Its so funny seeing this when there's a magazine store just right around the corner for me. 😅😂
Magazine 104 is out now
5:39 this poster says that a ninja is never alone
I love these magazines, the English magazines are the ones that get imported to my country and I am happy about that but the thing is I usually take some of the ninjago figures to make new figures that resemble me and my friends
I always see these magazines around here in Austria, but strangely rarely the ones with actual minifigs. 😂
At one point, there actually were ninjago magazines in US stores, I remember seeing them. But they weren’t the most recent issues and were very infrequent, im guessing most stores just sadly didn’t care enough to push them properly.
Despite what BricksByMind said, I live in southern England and I have had a couple of magazines with the trading cards. Sometimes they would be for different themes
I’ve been collecting the English version for 3 years and never received cards (except for the most recent issue, which had a Harry Potter card), maybe the ones you have are from older magazines?
You literally just described my vacation that I just got back from yesterday 😅
I forgotten how there were Lego Magazines that come with minifigures/minibuilds until I travelled to Europe two weeks ago. I was at a train station in Kiel when I saw a giant advertisement for Lego Ninjago at the window of a bookstore inside the said train station. Curious, I went inside, and lo and behold, I found an abundance of Lego Magazines. The sight was glorious.
I ultimately got 2 German magazines and 3 British ones(I later went to an airport in London, where there's a curious sight of "The Harry Potter Shop"), and I can confirm that the German ones are indeed superior; The German Ninjago magazines in particular included cards for a Ninjago card game instead of...off-topic Harry Potter ones that are in the UK magazine.
I now have General Aspheera, Oni Garmadon, Merge Kai, and a metal tin containing Dojo Lloyd and a Bone Warrior. I also got a Star Wars magazine with a Scout Trooper minifigure.
Germany also had these "extra large" packs where you could get two or three of six possible magazines, which would be randomized in a giant blind bag for just another euro or so(it might even cost the same price as just one magazine!). I got a Lego Ninjago "Feuer-Pack" and a Lego Batman "Super Batman-Power" pack. I haven't opened them yet, so here's hoping I get Scuba Nya and Shazam from them! (edit: I didn't watch the entirety of your video and just found out that you already talked about this with your Lego City magazine
The poster with the ninja say. A ninja never comes alone
And the other one says skeleten hunter danger
In a comic with Island Jay, you got a Platinum Dragon Kai card, and that's one on four hardest to collect!😭 One is in the 25 packs of cards
Id recommend potentially getting the legacy magazine from the uk which has Lloyd and one of the bone warriors. Instead of that blister pack they’re now in cool metal tins on the front
Omg I'm watching and seeing the lego city police one is so nostalgic cuz it was my 1st mag in 2017
Gorgeous card! I am happy that other countries get to enjoy all this Ninjago content, especially with all these add-ons. But looking at the detail in some of these, if they sold these in the states it would be as simple as they could get away with.
Fun fact: there was a trading card game in the UK magazines, there were 3 series of it between 2016 and 2018, and you could get gold cards in magazines, both ninjago and nexo knight magazines!
Here in Finland we do have some of the magazines, but only for a few themes, and even then they're always at least a month behind everywhere else (by design)
Hi Bricks by mind, I normally don’t comment to much on videos but when I saw this video, I knew I had to. This is a great and interesting video may I say it perfectly illustrates why I love where I live, I live in EU Denmark, so almost every month I get to go to my local kiosk in my supermarkets to pick up a Lego magazine, I don’t know how many I have now but I have SO many, they are great, for me they cost 7 dollars or 50 kr for me, i started getting them back in 2014 and then missed 2015 but got back in 2016, and so almost ever since that time I got one, I just wanted to leave this comment telling my story for these magazines, they are truly amazing and nostalgic, I still have ever single one🤟🏼
In the uk in most stores they have so many lego magazines omg like near the newspapers ,today I got a magazine with a collectors tin and 2 minifigs and also an avengers one with 2 minifigs
In indonesia,there is an annual book sale called big bad wolf,and one time i went there. I saw so much lego magazines and comics it was at a point i had the full collection of chima comics and an exclusive batman figure
Hey Mind, if you want to learn more about the Ninjago card game, this other Lego CZcamsr I watch called DuckBricks did a full video explaining it. Just look up DuckBricks Ninjago card game & it should pop right up as the 1st result. As an American I never heard of the card game either before he explained it. I’d definitely recommend looking it up.
Just FYI, Canada Sells the Ninjago, Batman, City, and Jurrasic World Magazines in Walmarts as well as Indigo's/Chapters
Big fan of the travelling graphics
England did used to have ninjago cards,but after SOG they stopped for some reason.I am unsure as to why,as from my experience they sold out quite fast and were pretty marketable.
At 9:43 I think that part of a bigger picture you can make if you get more cards
Once I went to a store and bought a double pack of magazines (like the city one, but I could see the figures inside it). And one of the magazines came with DOTD Kai and the other one came with S.O.G Cole. Last year I aso found one that came with Island Jay and the 2 headed keeper, but since I already had them I didnt buy it.
The dragon Kai kart is actually rare and it could be worth around 20€
The reason why the Ninjago Magazines don't come with the trading cards in the UK is simply because the game doesn't work. It is incredibly badly designed and I assume some kind of policies mean they can't be sold to kids that maybe doesn't exist elsewhere in Europe.
That one card is a puzzle peace
Al a kid one of my best memories was playing with the season 4 figures on holiday all of which came from magazine
That golden dragon jay activity book was at my book fair this year in English 😂
this video reminded me i have stacks of ninjago cards from when lego used to do them i have a lot from TOE and possession, sadly they stopped these packs at least where I'm from
thank you mind for this nostalgia lmao
edit: MIND I HAVE A DARETH CARD THANK YOU MY LIFE IS COMPLETE
We actually used to get cards here with the magazines in the UK but I don't think we get them anymore
as a chemist and a lego fan i love the periodic table of lego
Massive respect
When i got my lord ras figure it came with magazines, lord ras (obv) and seabound zane
Wow, that must’ve been a very long journey for you.
I was able to find a bunch in my hometown in Canada , I got the pink joker ,a hairy potter character , Poe dameron, lex Luther, Batman with his jet , lego city fire helicopter with pilot , off road police atv, lego ninjago came with Kai an bone king , also aspheera, cole golden dragon
Those cards have started appearing on British magazines
They seem to be harry potter cards though
Core wu has wildbrain wu face?! Wish it was like that in sets!
I bought a bag of blue ocean magazines for 8€ and it had 3 magazines with 4 mini lego sets and 5 ninjago cards, 5 Jurrasic World stickers.
I never knew that they were still doing trading cards because in the UK, I stopped seeing them since 2019
in my country every magazine comes out 7 months later than the english versions witch is annoying because i dont get any figs at the time the shows air in english
As an Albanian, I am glad you visited europe
He fun thing is I'm always complaining about the fact that there's soo many Lego ninjago magazins with sometimes 2 minifigures in one Magazin or that the Marvel one (which I love) always have minifigures but the the star wars one (although it's nice) sometimes don't even have a minifigure, I mean why does the ninjago one has 2 figures in one Magazin and sometimes the figures come in a tin box and the star wars one be like "nahh let's make another At-At 😂" but then I realize some countries don't have the Magazin at all 😂
12:15 bro you got one of the RAREST cards and you didn't even realize 💀
He doesn't Notice to this day
You got one of the rarest cards 😮😮😮😮 platinum kai is about 13€
Does anyone know if you can get that Lego City double pack thing but with Ninjago?
In Czech and Slovak Republic are often this cards
blue ocean has a website
but I´m not sure if they deliver to america
I live in Belgium, right next to Germany and we also have magezines but i could'nt find any with trading cards, but i do have one from i think Sons of garmadon but i dont know where i got it from
You should've probably filmed this video in a few months when the Lego dreamzzz magazine launches, but I understand why you couldn't.
I wish you were able to buy magazines on the Lego Website
In Quebec their is magasines only in one store in the old town
12:14 bro just pulled one of the rarest ninjago cards💀
Canada would have been a much closer journey. We’ve got Lego magazines in Walmart, Shoppers, and Indigo here, although they do tend to be months behind. The current Ninjago one has Dragon Cole.
Really, well now I want to move to Canada
Are they the English ones?
@@Earth-Ninja They sure are! Just saw the latest ones the other day. They had Claw Hunter and “Hero Ninja” (Lloyd from Seabound)
We don't get them in Australia 😔
I wish these would be available in the US, somone should make these available
Those cards are awesome
Thanks for the video, glad to know more about these magazines, that to some extent are also in Ukraine, but primarily, and maybe only, about Lego Explorer.
Wow as a Europian im glad to have paper / foilpacks but unfortunatly in Romania (where i am from) is bad, really bad
I live in germany and i didnt know in the english version there are no cards
I have successfully collected all 4 dragon ninja from these. And I have also successfully made several Americans properly jealous by telling them...
Sometimes living in Europe has its perks.
You pulled an Platinum Card out of your second pack. They are super rare.
If anyone is interested in just getting the minifigure packs look for a Bricks and Minifigs store in your area. They’re a third party Lego store that sells used, sealed, minifigures and bulk parts. #notsponsored lol
I have all the dragon form ninja because of the magazines
They removed ninjago cards in uk a few years ago, and it was very depressing
In the netherlands You can get 2 lego magizines for 5,99 euro's
4:50 5 euro for that? In Poland it was 30 PLN (6,78 euro) and now these will cost 40 PLN (9 euro)
Ich bin mit diesen Magazienen aufgewachsen, und dachte immer das es sie überall auf der Welt geben würde😂
Does he not know you can get them in Canada?
Mind you madlad
Mindlad
I live in germany and always buy these when they come out sense i was young
It's kinda fascinating you flight 5000 miles for something I have in my groceries store like few buildings next to me🥹
Geese for you ninjago magazines are expensive, I get them ordered in at my local magazine store and it only costs me $9.99nzd

If you need help figuring out the rules of the tcg, just ask Chris. He knows everything about it and can explain the rules to you well.
One of the legacy magazines I saw once had RONIN (from the gardens) in it. Because I was at a public place I couldn't get myself to buy it and I heavily regret it
I have that one that one came with ronin and cole
@@Bro-cm8uq lucky
