Year Released
Released in 2016; it debuted during the launch of the Nexo Knights theme which attempted to blend medieval fantasy with high-tech futuristic elements.
Rarity
Common. This specific version was included in five different sets, making it the most accessible version of the character during the theme's first year.
Head
Double-sided yellow head. One side features a smirking expression with reddish-brown eyebrows and a beauty mark; the other side shows a determined/angry face. Topped with a short, reddish-brown hair piece (part number 62691).
Torso
White torso with Knight armor printing. Features a blue shield with a white horse head (Macy's crest), chainmail at the neck, and gold accents. Metallic Silver arms with Dark Bluish Gray hands.
Legs
Light Bluish Gray legs with white hip piece. Dark Bluish Gray printing at the top of the legs and hips to represent the continuation of the tunic and a black belt with a gold horseshoe buckle.
Accessories
In the image, the figure is missing its primary accessories. Originally, Macy was typically equipped with a large translucent-orange mace (power mace) and a Nexo Shield for scanning powers, along with her signature red helmet with a transparent-orange visor.
Color Scheme
A primary palette of white, light bluish gray, and metallic silver, accented by dark blue and gold details. This reflects her royal yet combative status.
Printing Details
High-quality pad printing typical of the 2010s era. Detailed chainmail pattern around the collar and a crisp faction logo on the chest. Leg printing is limited to the hip and upper thigh area.
Variants
Variants include nex015 (Ultimate Macy) with a different torso/shield, nex059 (Kimono version), and nex041 (with heavy lava-battle armor). The version shown is the standard 'King's Guard' style armor.
Condition Notes
Common wear points include scratches on the metallic silver arm printing and loose torso-to-hip friction. This specific figure appears to have some slight scuffing on the face but generally good print alignment.
Estimated Value
Current market value for a loose figure in this incomplete condition is approximately $1.50 - $2.50 USD. A complete version with weapons and helmet is valued at $4.00 - $6.00 USD.
Price (New)
N/A individually; it appeared in sets ranging from the $9.99 USD Knighton Battle Blaster to the $99.99 USD Fortrex.
Compatible Sets
70310 Knighton Battle Blaster, 70317 The Fortrex, 70319 Macy's Thunder Mace, 70324 Merlok's Library 2.0, and 121601 Nexo Knights Magazine Gift.
Character Background
Macy Halbert is the princess of Knighton and a graduate of the Knights' Academy. She struggles with her father King Halbert's desire for her to be a traditional princess while she wants to be a warrior defending the realm.
Design Notes
The Nexo Knights used a specific 'techno-medieval' aesthetic. Macy's design is notable for utilizing the white armor base which was shared among all 5 lead knights but distinguished by her unique sigil and hair.
Similar Minifigures
Other wave 1 Knights like Clay (nex002), Aaron (nex003), Lance (nex004), and Axl (nex005). Stylistically similar to classic Castle Princesses but with modern printing.
Collectibility
Moderate. While Nexo Knights is no longer in production, Macy is a core protagonist. However, because this version was mass-distributed in many sets, it has high supply.
History
First introduced in January 2016 as part of LEGO's original IP project. The theme lasted three years and was discontinued in 2018, making these early figures nostalgic for those who grew up with the cartoon.
Interesting Facts
Macy's horse sigil is a direct nod to the vintage LEGO Castle 'Black Knights' faction crest, but updated with modern graphics.
Display Suggestions
Display alongside the other four Nexo Knights or standing in front of the 70317 Fortrex. Use translucent-orange 'spark' elements to simulate her power-up state.
Modification Potential
The hair piece is a popular part for city-themed custom minifigures. The torso and legs can be used for futuristic space-knights or paladin-class characters in RPG-style MOCs.
Overall Assessment
A solid, well-printed minifigure that represents a unique era of LEGO original storytelling. While common, she is essential for any completionist of the Nexo Knights theme.
