Nexus Tower: First Look

EDIT: Please note that some people are unhappy that I have shared this because it is pure speculation, which it is. I should note though that some photos come from a recent video released by LEGO about Nexus Jawbox, so you can trust the ones of the tower itself, if not the launchpad and 3D image.

I bet a lot of you out there are upset about Nexus Jawbox. You like the "Nexus" part, but not so crazy about the "Jawbox". You all want Jawbox" to be "Tower". Well, maybe sooner than you think!

We do know some things about this mystery tower. The first thing is, it's not coming out anytime before June. A LEGO Club contest for the tower has been started, and the due date for all entries is June. I think it's a safe bet that the tower will arrive then.


Also, we have some pics you might like. This is one possible version of the launchpad behind Kurt Tussle, maybe an early alpha one. But it is a launchpad.

Judging from its general look, it was based on an alpha launchpad. This means that it could be different when it gets into the game, but for now, we can pretend this is it.
 Next, we know that is is an actual game image of the inside of the tower. Although the picture doe not tell us who or what is in it, it does show several interesting things. For one, there's an observatory. Two, this is one big place. And three, it shows that the nexus of imagination can actually be seen when in the tower. Cool, huh?

You may also find a Nexus Showcase, which from the game files may be in the tower.
Words don't compare to this picture from the LEGO Universe wiki. Astounding it is, someone has found several pictures of the completed Nexus Tower.

Now, is that cool, or what?
If you compare this to the 3D image, you can really tell what Nexus Tower is going to look like.

This will be the first area you come to, and I believe that it adjoins to a vendor area on the far right.
I won't bore you with the details of every picture, but I'll post a few more below for you to see.

I'd say that Nexus Tower is July or August from all the hints LEGO drops.
In case it's not, I'm hoping that this will tide you over until it comes out.

Oh, and thanks to Yhnmko1 and the wiki for these images and videos. You may want to check out the Nexus Tower article on the wiki formore.


See you there,

The youtube launch pad video is from the LEGO Universe Wiki's channel and the launcpad is from KelvinTheBoss. he is so awesome for posting the origional video.
@Knoxes: He is not a mythran, in one reply to a comment he said he knows a mythran who gave him the pics

Jomy582 said...

OMG GUYS GO TO THE LEGO WIKI SITE PATCH LINKED! i think LU video leaked and shows screenplay of nexus jawbox and stuff. Its not the one form KelvinTheBoss though

@ Jomy i no i made that mistake but yes he does have a net friend lots of people or giving credit to the wiki and not to kelvin about that video that came out that morning before LEGO Universe did and then wiki contributors where given credit to finding the "Pictures" To get these pics all you have to do is prnt scrn and take them from the video! Sometimes the wiki contributors can be a little too...prideful in what they put in there thats all i am saying.
