Recommendation: yes 5 / 5

The best part about the set is the dragon. It looks great as the wings flap, the jaws snap, and the two studs can be fired from the tail. Simply in terms of scale, it dwarfs the sky pirates lookout tower. Speaking of the tower, it is, of course, highly detailed and includes a catapult that fires four round LEGO bricks at the encroaching dragon and a hidden barrel with two golden coins.

I've been a fan of the ninjago dragons for a long time. This is arguably, the best dragon out of all of them. Since that is the main part of the set. We'll start of with that. The wings are excellent, as they are made of a soft-thin-cloth-like material. The underneath of the wings are layered with a different material. They're made of a shiny synthetic gold which look nice. The wingspan is pretty impressive as the wings can fold and expand. Now the body\head. The head is pretty slender and quite frankly, innovative. It sorta reminds me of smaug form the hobbit. The body is nice and bulky, with lots of detail. The tail is segmented, long, and easy to pose. The pirate structures are very functional and they just add a bit extra to the set. The minifigs are great although I think they should've replaced one of the pirates for a ninja. Overall this is a fantastic set, I hope Lego uses that kind of design for all the other elemental dragons and variate the design slightly according to ninja.

My little cousin loved it for christmas. I made the mistake of giving my other little cousin a wooden animal puzzle. I've never seen a kid trying so hard to be polite...New gift buying flow chart: Is the child between the ages of 5 and 35? Yes -> buy him/her Legos. No -> Stuffed animal or beer, depending on which end of the range their age falls on.Oh yeah, I'm reviewing the box. It has held together well for constant use. My cousins (age 6 and 7) put the whole set together themselves in about 2 hours. It's great.
