“This set has three main features. The first and simplest is a "rock shooter" built into the front of the vehicle, which is activated by pulling a small trigger. Also included is a function where six "ninja blades" pop up all over the vehicle when the engine on the back is... More pressed. The main feature of the set is that the cockpit rotates when the vehicle is turned over to reveal several Lime Green bricks, which represent the vehicle's "stealth mode" (the vehicle's coloration disguises it as a Serpentine vehicle).”

BrickEconomy Expert Review
“Cole’s Tread Assault delivers a striking, aggressive vehicle design built around oversized tread elements, angular blade detailing, and a bold black-and-gold color scheme that gives it strong visual presence from most angles. While parts of the structure feel exposed and skeletal by modern standards, the model still shows creative use of Technic framing and distinctive shaping that set early Ninjago vehicles apart. The minifigure selection strengthens the set considerably, with a well-realized Cole ZX and a highly detailed Scales that adds... More character and visual contrast to the lineup.”
