Frequently asked questions
What exactly are LEGO Ninjago playsets?
They are super cool building sets from LEGO that bring the action-packed world of Ninjago to life! Based on a popular TV show, these sets let you build everything from ninja vehicles and elemental dragons to ancient temples and villainous lairs, starring brave ninja heroes and their wise master.
Who are the main ninja heroes I'll find in these sets?
Get ready to meet the team!
- Kai: The brave and fiery Red Ninja.
- Jay: The witty and electric Blue Ninja.
- Cole: The strong and earthy Black Ninja.
- Zane: The robotic and icy White Ninja (a Nindroid!).
- Nya: Kai’s sister, the powerful Water Ninja.
- Lloyd: The chosen Green Ninja, leader of the team. And let’s not forget their wise sensei, Master Wu!
What kind of things can I actually build with Ninjago sets?
Oh, the possibilities are endless! You can build:
- Giant Mechs: Like Kai’s Fire Mech or Zane’s Titan Mech.
- Soaring Dragons: Elemental dragons for each ninja!
- Awesome Vehicles: Bikes, jets, cars, and even submarines.
- Intricate Temples & Dojos: Where the ninjas train or face off against villains.
- Bad Guy Bases: Lairs for their many enemies! You’ll also get mini-figures of the ninjas, villains, and other characters.
Are Ninjago sets hard to build?
Not at all! LEGO is famous for its clear, step-by-step instruction manuals. Each set has an age recommendation (e.g., 7+, 9+), so you can pick one that’s just right for your building skill. It’s more about patience and following directions than it is about being “hard.”
Is there a story behind Ninjago, or is it just random ninja stuff?
There’s a HUGE story! Ninjago is a land of ancient secrets, elemental powers, and a constant struggle between good and evil. The ninjas, led by Master Wu, protect their home from a never-ending stream of villains – from skeleton armies and snake tribes to ghost masters and techno-wizards. The TV show is a great way to learn all about it!
What's a good set to start with if I'm new to Ninjago?
A great starting point would be a smaller set featuring one of the core ninjas and their mini-mech or elemental dragon. Look for sets with an age rating of 6+ or 7+. Or, if you’re drawn to a particular ninja or vehicle from the show, simply pick that one! There’s no wrong way to begin your Ninjago journey.
