Recommendation: meh 4.83 / 5 from 6 reviews

(Review by my 5 year old son) I like how it shoots bullets and a net. It is big and there are a lot of technic pieces to put it together. I like to play with it a lot as well as build it.

Recommendation: meh 4.7 / 5 from 58 reviews

I bought this for my sons 8th birthday because he is obsessed with ninjago and really thought this set was very cool. Instructions were good and he built the whole set with minimal help. I would definitely recommend this set. If your child is 6 or younger they would most likely need help building it just because there are quite a few parts.

Recommendation: meh 4.5 / 5

Ninjago fans will have a mech-tacular time posing their Mech figures (which have great range of motion) and staging super battles. The Salvage M.E.C. has a net stud shooter and golden bow spring-loaded shooter to take down the Skulkin Warriors. Ronin also has a detachable skateboard, which is great for push-along play, and the flyer can be detached from the Salvage M.E.C.'s back. You can also connect the Golden Bow to the flyer and position it to your liking to make your own customized flyer.
