Legends of Chima is based on the popular line of LEGO construction toys comes and tells the story of the Chima Kingdom, a magical land ruled by very advanced animal tribes. These creatures walk and talk like humans. They drive vehicles, use machinery and live in amazing castles and fortresses, but still have claws, teeth, tails and wings. The Chima Kingdom that was once a pure and natural paradise has transformed into a land of unrest. Only a few brave heroes understand the true nature of Chi. Their story, and the stories of those who challenge them, are known as the “Legends of Chima.”
