Brick Fanatics
“This is the second wave of NINJAGO Core sets, which iterate on fundamental NINJAGO concepts, bridging the gap between 4+ builds and regular System sets. The colors and characters linked to each dragon, car and mech may change, but this will all be very familiar territory for... More veteran LEGO NINJAGO fans. The more interesting stuff will likely come along in the summer, following the culmination of this year’s Crystalized subtheme.”

BrickEconomy Member Review
“Kai’s Ninja Race Car EVO is a small but clean build with a low, streamlined shape and bold orange accents that tie in well with the character’s theme. The simple transformation between off-road and street configurations adds some variation to the layout, even if the changes are fairly minimal. The Kai minifigure with dual golden katanas rounds it out nicely, though the reliance on stickers and the short build time make it feel a bit basic.”
 

About Ninjago Core

The Ninjago Core theme is devoted to introducing young children into Ninjago by reimagining some of Ninjago's older concepts. Core introduced shorts called The Virtues of Spinjitzu that reused some concepts of this subtheme. Core sets are inspired by the original sets and recreates it in a new way with new characters and vehicles. Core is actually the third Ninjago subtheme, the first two being The LEGO Ninjago Movie and Ninjago Legacy.

Core consists of 23 sets that ran from 2022 to 2023. As of today, 71785 Jay's Titan Mech is the most valuable Core set with an estimated new/factory sealed value of $175.
