About Legends of Chima

A world built on CHI

The story centres on CHI, a precious energy shown in the sets as small glowing orbs. Lions, eagles, wolves, crocodiles, ravens, gorillas and other tribes compete for it, each with its own colour scheme, vehicles and strongholds. The minifigures wear large sculpted animal heads, which gives the range a look that is easy to recognise. Later waves introduced new tribes, and the final year in 2015 shifted to a conflict between fire and ice. Vehicles play a big part as well, from walkers and flyers to heavy tribe machines, so even the mid-sized sets usually combine a build with two or three characters.

Temples, fortresses and bases

Flying Phoenix Fire Temple (70146-1) from 2014 is the largest regular set with 1,301 pieces, just ahead of The Lion CHI Temple (70010-1) from 2013 with 1,259. King Crominus' Rescue (70227-1, 863 pieces) and Tiger's Mobile Command (70224-1, 712 pieces) represent the final year, while Lavertus' Outland Base (70134-1), Sir Fangar's Ice Fortress (70147-1) and Worriz's Combat Lair (70009-1) all sit between 660 and 690 pieces. The catalogue also lists The Ultimate Battle for Chima (BIGBOX-1) from 2015 with 10,001 pieces.

Speedorz and Constraction

Two sub-themes extend the main line. Speedorz are small single-wheeled racers launched with a ripcord, used for races and jousting games. Constraction covers large buildable figures of the heroes and villains. Both have their own pages with full set lists. Because the whole theme is retired, the parts lists on Bricoria help when you are checking used sets or looking for the distinctive animal heads and bright tribe colours for your own builds.
