The Sons Of Garmadon are in control of Ninjago. Garmadon has unlocked his true potential, and the Ninja are down to two. But the Sons of Garmadon aren’t garunteed victory. A way to get closer to garunteeing victory is to use a creation of the first evil in all of Ninjago. The Golden Armor. Except it’s hidden in a remote forest. Maybe Hiroshi’s Labyrinth, maybe not. Hopefully Cyrus Borg was wise enough to hide it in a different facility to the Realm Crystal if that is the case. Or rather, hide the Realm Crystal in a different facility to the Golden Armor. But then, Garmadon needs to find it. Assuming he doesn’t already know where it is, and still has the ability to handle all four Golden Weapons at once, that is. He’d need Borg to locate it. But the Ninja and their team almost certainly know this, so they would find Borg and protect him. Unless Garmadon gets there first. He would have time, unless Borg is the first person the Ninja recruit, which is unlikely. So let’s assume the villains get Borg. How would they get the location of the Armor out of him? How would they get past the Nindroids and other security features? To get the location, they could simply threaten him. If that doesn’t work, they could harm him. I’m sure he wouldn’t mind an unfortunate amputation of the right hand, Star Wars characters have that all the time. (No, I don’t think they’d remove his right hand specifically, just an example. Probably no removed body parts.) If that doesn’t work, threaten others. Typically heroes are noble and things like this work. If that doesn’t work, too bad. Garmadon was present for Lloyd’s training session where he tried to steal the fake Golden Armor, so he has a rough idea on how to get it. He might possibly be able to create a specially designed servant for it.

So, to answer my question, yes. Is it likely? No, I just don’t see very many reasons that they would go this way. They removed the Armor from the story for a reason, and it wouldn’t really be a very good story if Garmadon gets it. We just don’t really need an omnipotent Garmadon. Unless he’s making a giant ham sandwhich Realm, of course.

Let me know your thoughts on this.
