My nephew loves everything Ninjago. So I try to get him some of the new sets since there are always so many to choose from! This is a good one because you get three figures. Two good and one bad guy. Jay and Lloyd are the ninjas. The vehicles are very fun and you can add/interchange your own parts with them. Plenty of ways to zoom around during play. The minifigures are collectible which adds to the fun as well. He loves it and I love spending time with him. I too grew up with Legos because they're a really really great toy/more than a toy. :)

Primarily I collect the Ninjago range of Mechs and Dragons because they have a really good aesthetic. The vehicle range tends ot leave me a bit cold but these little speedsters caught my eye and they looked small enough to easily slot in to my display. This was a mistake, despite not being large they are certainly bigger than I anticipated and I did struggle squeezing them on to the Ninjago shelves. Nicely sturdy when built they will stand up to quite a bit of play without collapsing on themselves. Although, one or two bits are more prone to dropping off when zooming the vehicle about - yes, I did have a couple of chases on the build table after making them. Some fun build techniques on both vehicles that keep you enjoying the build experience. Be warned though, a lot of fiddly stickers are included so a bit of patience is needed to get them looking good on the finsihed vehicle. Well worth it though as they do escalate the look of both vehicles when attached. Number Of Pieces: 322 Approximate Price Per Piece: £0.08 Build Time: 1 Hour
