“This set is barely passable; it was definitely saved by the minifigs and accessories.”

Brickset

“This is an excellent set for play, particularly in conjunction with other characters and spinners. The parts count is poor for the price, but the mode itself is well sized and there's tons of play value. The set can often be found new and sealed on BrickLink or eBay for... More close to the original retail price. If you have nostalgia for the original Ninjago line, or if you want a taste of the classic spinner game), then I definitely recommend this set.”
