Insights

Released as a regional Kabaya promotional and now retired, Master and Heavy Gun (Castle: Ninja) benefits from scarcity linked to its promo distribution and classic Ninja-era nostalgia, and it carries modest upside constrained by its small scale, common minifigure type, and thin trading volume.

Set Facts

It is the same set as 1752 Crossbow Boat and 1804 Crossbow Boat.
It was a promotion with Kabaya.

Brickset

“Also named cart or ninja blaster, this is a small set, due to was released as promotional or with sweets, like this version, named "Master and Heavy Gun". For a small set, it is great, i think that it deserves a rate 5/5, because it is also a catapult that launch's two... More pieces.”
