Sorry, I don't understand.  If you do the following on Ubuntu with
Emacs 27.1:

  emacs -Q
  C-x C-f ~/icons/lxa-next.xpm RET

does Emacs 27.1 on Ubuntu display the image, or does it display an
empty box?  If the latter, the problem is that Emacs 27.1 on Ubuntu
that you have installed is not capable of showing XPM images
correctly.  IOW, in that case the problem is not related to the tool
bar, it is related to the general inability of displaying XPM images
in that version of Emacs.
