Recommendation: meh 4.4 / 5 from 24 reviews

First of all, if you're a fan of Ninjago and Legos then you'll love this set! There are a ton of pieces and it says it is for ages 9+.. my daughter who is 11 really loves Lego sets and its quite good at putting them together. She is still working on building this set and has been working on it on and off for about 2 weeks. She really has been enjoying this set. She says it is a little challenging but refuses to have help on putting it all together. I like that this set can also be used as a board game also once the figures have all been built. My daughter likes to play with the figures individually and she also likes to display them on her shelf. This is a really great set that is not only fun but challenging and keeps the kiddos engaged. I would definitely recommend!

Recommendation: meh 80 / 100 by John

This was a treat of a set. I'm super excited to finally have a fearsome and super cool looking dragon in the collection. I would have liked to have seen a better tail joint mechanism, but what is there is manageable. It's not what I'd call swooshable, but it's still fun to position.

Recommendation: meh by TobyMac

Well, the dragon sure looks amazing. Lose the seat and flags, and it will easily fit in a display. For that part alone, I think the set is worth its money. For the rest of the set: unless you plan on playing the game, there is not much in it. The board pieces are simple and boring to build, and it adds nothing to the dragon itself.

Recommendation: yes by Chris Doyle

Dragons are always a good draw for LEGO sets, and this one should be no exception to that trend. The build is engaging, the play features solid, and the look is top-notch. At under 8 cents per piece, it's a good value for those looking for parts to use in their own creations, too. And what a selection of pieces! There are rare and unique elements, cool recolors, and six new-for-2020 minifigures to be had. The “gaming experience" is a pretty weak addition in a meta sense, but the small island elements are fun to build and both have action features.

71721 Skull Sorcerer's Dragon looks magnificent, as anticipated. This impressive creature is phenomenally detailed and captures the distinctive skeletal aesthetic which is associated with the Skull Sorcerer. I am particularly delighted with the head and the ribcage, both of which are quite different to previous NINJAGO dragons, despite incorporating some familiar construction techniques.
