“The side pods cap off an aerodynamic delight that may barely count as a boat, but so wonderfully gets the mind's imagination going. The LEGO Group twice refer to this set in their product description as a cool toy, and indeed it's cool to look at, it's cool to hold in your... More hands, and it's cool to play with. It is a cool toy.”

“The build of the set is the Katana V11 itself, which is… uh, a speedboat for Kai. Yes, a boat for the Fire Ninja. Oh well. It is mostly bright red, with some flame yellowish orange highlights. Stickers certainly help to jazz it up, but I feel that all the different slopes at... More different angles don’t go together well and only make the model look ugly. Like most SoG members, Luke Cunningham gets a motorcycle. This one looks fairly nice, but it doesn’t balance too well.”
