Sets in this theme are based on Day of the Departed, a Ninjago: Masters of Spinjitzu TV special which was preceded by Season 6 Skybound and is followed by Season 7 The Hands of Time. The sets mostly consisted of ninja vehicles except for Airjitzu Battle Grounds and contained Departed Blades as the theme's collectable items.
2016 LEGO Sets
2016 saw some truly iconic releases with sets from Ghostbusters and the introduction of the Nexo Knights. LEGO also released the licensed, but short-lived The Angry Birds Movie theme. However, LEGO did discontinue Legends of Chima, Pirates and also the LEGO Simpsons which only did see a couple of sets. The Creator theme really shined in 2016 with the release of the Volkswagen Beetle (10252-1) and Big Ben (10253-1). The shining star that year for investors was certainly the Ghostbusters Firehouse Headquarters and pretty much all the Speed Champions sets which have seen growth in the triple digits.
