“Not exceptional, but a small solid addition to the ninja line. For the price, you couldn't ask for more. And as much as all the colours of ninja are cool, lets be realistic: ninjas wear black. This is the real deal. This set gets you two classic-looking Japanese minifigs,... More and a third, grizzled o-jiisan (old man).”

“The LEGO Ninja Surprise set (6045) is a fantastic representation of a compact ninja build, offering a lot of classic features for a small set. Released in 1998 it includes a unique cast of three minifigures—a ninja and two rugged outlaw samurai—alongside a cleverly designed hang glider and a treasure-filled stronghold with a hidden axe trap.”
