More had some pretty neat features which I loved putting together.”

“To sum up, this is a good set. There are plenty of good pieces at a good price, including some that only appear in a few other equally-new sets. Both vehicles are sturdy and look nice, and while not revolutionary, are fun. If you're a fan of Ninjago, this is definitely a... More good buy, but most other LEGO fans will find something to enjoy here, even if they're just buying for parts.”

“I find this to be a really fun set with some decent vehicles for both ninjas. The vehicles have good designs and fun functions. And what the Nindroid loses in ability-to-take-on-the-two-ninja-vehicles, he makes up for being a cool robot baddie.”
