Recommendation: meh 4.92 / 5 from 13 reviews

This set is absolutely fantastic, and to me it was the best Ninjago dragon set LEGO has ever made. Not to say the other dragons were bad, but this one is grabs your attention easily. You'll notice the color scheme, the sand green color is vivid and I haven't seen it on any LEGO set I've lived to see. The wings have a very nice texture and looks great on the set itself. The head is even better, its brick built and has a lot of depth into it, it's what gives the dragon its fierce look aside from its other physical features. Its body reminds me of a Chinese dragon with its serpent shape as if it were waving through the air. It has a ghoulish looking saddle on the top for the Evil Green Ninja to control the dragon. The temple is nice too play wise, it was a pretty simple build but it looks great with the glow in the dark studs to act as a lamp post. It includes a Realm Crystal and some weapons to play out a scene from the show series. The jet boards have high play potential, they are extremely easy to build and you can use them to help the ninja Kai and Jay take on the Morro Dragon and the Evil Green Ninja. The minifigures are amazing , my favorite amongst them is of course, the Evil Green Ninja. He has a very nice hood and cloak that exerts a melting type look, and the print is great on the front and back. Next up is Wrayth, this set and the City of Stiix are the only sets that include Wrayth with the ghost leg variants. Ghost warriors Yokai and Cowler are both awesome too, Yokai has a great hood piece, on the back of the hood it looks like his ghost aura is leaking out. Cowler is a great looking minifigure too, he has a different torso print than Yokai and a different hat, but you can safely say they look relatively the same without their hat and face accessories. Both warrior's wield weapons that contain glow in the dark snow cone pieces. Last but not least are the two hero ninjas Kai and Jay, they too look similar but are separated by their secondary color and slightly different torso pieces. Overall I was very satisfied and pleased with the end product, the dragon itself was absolutely astonishing. The temple and jet boards put the icing on the cake, and the minifigures put the cherry on top. This set was a blast to build and still is a blast to play with and quite frankly , it was worth every penny.

My son loves legos and dragons; he loves this thing. Usually when we built a set it gets destroyed shortly after in the battle which ensues, however this dragon has not yet been defeated, still looks just as it was built. Good indication of how awesome and powerful it is :P

Recommendation: yes 4 / 5 by Vaderfan2187

I like this set. The build of the Morro Dragon is pretty sweet, the minifigures are good, playability is decent, and the price is definitely good (though maybe it could be a bit cheaper in the U.S.).

Recommendation: no 4 / 5

This set is for LEGO and Ninjago fans, ages 8–14. We think kids as young as 6 will want to play with the completed dragon and minifigures, however, they will probably need help building it. Older fans and LEGO collectors might like this set also due to the large number of weapons and multiple minifigures.

Recommendation: meh 8 / 10 by Exetrius

I think the Morro Dragon is fantastic, maybe even the biggest and best brick-built dragon to-date. Menacing, huge and great poses. Nice figs too, especially Morro Evil Green Ninja, who is superb and was a major draw to buy this set. Little hover boards are fun and the shrine turned out OK. I don't think that I would have bought it, even with my new view on the set, if I had to pay the original price, it's on the high end for me.

The gang is definitely all here: a big dragon, six minifigures (and a couple little guys), and a shrine. There wasn't anything to disappoint in this set. All of the minifigs are gorgeously printed and come with a pile of weapons. The price per piece on this set is a little below par, but the build makes up for it. Even as a parts pack there is a lot of value here, though it might be a bit too big for most drafts.
