“This set has lots of fun playability that should appeal to younger builders, plus an awesome design and piece count to appeal to older builders. I suppose if you're not into the whole snake-vehicle theme that Ninjago has going this year, that could turn you off, but if... More that's the case then there was really nothing here for you to start with. Overall, I think it's a well designed set that fits in great with the Ninjago theme.”

“It includes Kai ZX with a fire-powered jetpack, Lloyd Garmadon, Fang-Suei, 2 white snakes, and a giant Fangpyre serpentine helicopter. It also includes the Constrictai Snake Staff. The Rattlecopter is a flying vehicle used by the Fangpyre in Ninjago: Masters of Spinjitzu.”
