“The set contains a fortress made mainly out of black, grey, purple, and white pieces, with some red, has a brown drawbridge, and is armed with flick-fire missiles. It also includes Lord Garmadon's throne which doubles as a flying machine and a giant skeletal underworld... More spider that attatches to the fortress. Other Minifigures include Kai, Nya, Samukai, Chopov, and Bonezai.”

“The way I see it, this set is not only NINJAGO but a very dark fortress as well. It will fit in nicely into any castle theme layout. Very awesome combination of black, dark bluish gray and purple. The minifigs may not be exclusive but they're definitely cool and you can use... More almost every part of this set for your skeleton/fantasy hideout. Get it!”
