Pt. 1: All New!

New set, new series, new format, same old Lego Batman

UK: Hi! I'm Unikitty!!

LB: I'm Batman!

Uk: And welcome to the super awesome “Unikitty Builds UltraKatty / Watches She-Ra and the Princesses of Power (and Lego Batman helps)”!

LB: Think the title is long enough? Also, why is my text light blue? I’m not Adam West! I’m switching to Purple!

UK: Aww.. But that will just show up as black on the Tumblr app.

LB: Even better!

UK: This is the super cool set we’ll be making! It’s 348 pieces and the full title is “Ultrakatty & Warrior Lucy!”!!

LB: Emit and a Duplo alien are part of the set too, but apparently don’t rate top billing.

LB: The set comes in 3 bags, the instruction book, and a sticker sheet.

UK: Ooh... stickers!

LB: Since they’re included in the set, we’ll get Emit and Lucy out first to help out. Even though I could totally put together this set by myself.

UK: Hi guys! Welcome to the build! We’re starting with the Duplo alien!

Lucy: Thank you for freeing us from the unending limbo that is the dreaded MIB. It was a dreamless nothing existence of eternal timeless-

Emit: I was in bag 3! Oh, can I get coloured text too? Dibs on orange!

LB: No. You’re technically guests characters, so you get default text. This may be Unikitty’s build, but I won’t let it turn into a technicolor nightmare to read.

Emit: Aww.. Well any ways, what’s next?

UK: Next we watch cartoons!

Lucy: But we just started on the build...

LB: We have to stretch this out across 12 parts, so expect them to be on the short side.

Emit: We’re watching both parts of “The Sword” together, so it’s like a double decker couch of fun right off the bat!

Lucy: Why exactly are we watching She-Ra? It hardly ties into the build.

UK: Duh! It’s ‘She-Ra and the Princesses of Power’, and I am Princess Unikitty. So, by extension, the Ultrakatty set is also princess related. It’s a whole princess synergy going on here!

LB: The logic checks out. The episode starts off with introducing us to Adora, a cadet in the Horde army, as she does combat training with some other cadets. She easily handles all the robots representing “evil princesses” by herself, like a boss.

UK: Then the super cool cat-girl Catra jumps in at the last moment and claims the victory! Go cats!

Lucy: Then after the training this Shadow Weaver lady floats in and congratulates Adora on her work, yet completely disregards Catra. I don’t know about you, but i’m getting some serious evil vibes from her.

Emit: Come on Lucy, I’m sure she’s nice deep down. She even gives Adora a promotion to force captain. That’s nice!

LB: But then we see just who Adora will be going up against. Over in Bright Moon, Princess Glimmer whines to her mother about wanting to fight the Horde and then she’s grounded. Clearly a dangerous force that must be crushed.

UK: Back with the Horde, Catra pounces on Adora and finds out about he cool promotion.

Lucy: This shot sums up how most fan see this pair, doesn’t it?

LB: Pretty much...

Emit: When Catra gets sad that she can’t come with Adora on her first mission, Adora, like a true friend, takes her out for a fun ride to cheer her up!

Lucy: But Catra crashes the skiff into a spooky forest and both of them get separated. While wandering about Adora comes across a glowing sword that gives her visions when she touches it. After the vision the sword is gone, but Catra is there to bring Adora back home.

LB: Bummer, magic swords are hard to come by. Back at the overly pastel Bright Moon, Glimmer is sulking and whining about being grounded and then sneaks off into the spooky forest with her friend Bow to find a magic MacGuffin.

Lucy: And they’re not the only ones. Adora sneaks out again, leaving Catra behind to cover for her, and heads back the forest to find that sword. She manages to track it down at the same time as Glimmer and Bow. On spotting their sworn enemy, the two warriors from Bright moon proceed to... stand yell for several seconds.

LB: It’s clear why the Horde has had so much trouble facing such formidable foes...

Lucy: After a rather pathetic fight, with that mostly consisted of teleporting and hair pulling, Adora manages to touch the sword again and gets another vision telling her she’s the fated chosen one.

Emit: Oh boy, I know what that’s like. She might want to look into just how legit that prophecy is.

LB: She wakes up and finds that she’s been captured by Glimmer and Bow, who intend to take her and the sword back to Bright Moon (mostly just to get out of being grounded). Along the way they explain that the princesses are not an evil menace, clearly, and that the Horde are actually evil invaders.

Lucy: Ha! Told you that they were totally evil!

UK: They’re then attacked by a giant icky bug monster, and not even the power of sparkles can stop it! But then Adora holds up the magic sword and transforms into the super cool and really tall She-Ra!LB: I dig the cape, but is the skirt over shorts really necessary?

Lucy: Eh, given how bad the original version looked, I’ll take it.

Emit: The bug monster also seems to like the look, because it calms down right away. But when she changes back to normal, Glimer and Bow then argue with her about getting the sword back. Friends should’t fight, and the bug thanks so too since it gets all angry again and chases them into an old temple.

LB: In the temple they find that Adora can some how read the super old writing, and they manage to start up this sweet holographic AI interface. But they fail the login check and the whole place starts to fall apart. They should have just started with “hey ‘puter”, that works with all my tech.

Lucy: Instead of just giving Adora the sword so she can go all She-Ra, Glimmer teleports the three of them 100 feet off the ground in the middle of nowhere, and then passes out. When she wakes up, Adora explains that the only reason she’s still sticking around is that she wants answers to the visions she’s having and Bright Moon seems like the best shot.

UK: Back with the Horde, Shadow Weaver is questioning Catra about where Adora is. When Catra says she has no idea, Shadow Weaver then says that she already knows where she is and sends Catra to capture her. So she asked just to be a big meanie to Catra!

LB: Meanwhile in the woods, the trio come across a small village having a festival. The inhabitants seem to be some kind of goat?

UK: They’re fauns, you dork!

Lucy: References aside, they stick around the village for a while and Adora gets to experience her very first party, topped off by encountering a horse for the first time. But then it’s all cut short then then the Horde attacks and Adora is shocked to hear that this village is where she was supposed to attack on her first mission.

UK: While Glimmer and Bow clear everyone out of the village, Adora tries to convince Catra that the Horde are the baddies, but she doesn't really care and just wants Adora to come home. Adora refuses and chooses to stay with the good guys. She then transforms into She-Ra and starts taking out tanks!

LB: In the end the Horde is driven off, but the village is destroyed and Adora has abandoned her lifelong friend, but at least they got a horse out of it.
