LEGO Nexo Knights Ultimate Sets were a subtheme released in 2016, featuring enhanced versions of the main characters from the Nexo Knights series. Each Ultimate set included a single minifigure with upgraded armor, weapons, and accessories, along with three Nexo Power shields that could be scanned into the Nexo Knights app for digital gameplay enhancements. Examples of these sets include "Ultimate Clay" (70330), "Ultimate Macy" (70331), "Ultimate Aaron" (70332), "Ultimate Robin" (70333), and "Ultimate Beast Master" (70334). These sets allowed fans to boost their characters' abilities both physically and digitally, integrating the building experience with interactive app features.
