    A stunning minifigure pack with lackluster builds

    Written by (AFOL) in United States,

    This set shines as a minifigure and accessory pack, since the figure parts, printing and accessories are simply amazing. I mainly was interested in this set for the novelty of Avatar Harumi's Kill Bill reference, but most of the prints developed for the Prime Empire line are amazing, including those on Digi Jay and Scott, as well as the two antagonist figures. Plus, the weapons are great, especially since I don't usually buy Ninjago sets. On the other hand, the builds are pretty disappointing. I plan on parting this out, and there are some semi-interesting pieces in here, but I didn't really get much out of the build. Some of the most interesting construction was just putting together the Prime Empire armour and the life indicators, which says a lot about how uninteresting I found the construction. Still, this set has some amazing figures in it, and if you can still find it on clearance somewhere, it's worth picking up for those alone. Even the figures that are mostly part re-use give you a nice flannel shirt and wetsuit, both of which I will definitely find a use for.

    As someone who doesn't collect Ninjago, I look forward to using the figure parts in future cyberpunk themed MOCs, and otherwise will be putting the pieces in my parts bin.
