Blast off into the Jungle with the Ninja DB X!
" This set is so much better than the picture on the box. I like to buy Ninjago sets and this one is absolutely perfect for me and any other Ninjago fan! The pieces don't tell you anything, you have to look at the play features, so lets take a look:
#1 play feature has got to be the ejecting lab. The thing comes out pretty easily and holds together well. It also opens up and allows minifigs (all ninja, Nya, Garmadon, and Skylar)!
The next thing is Nya's ship. A tower comes up and the ship is right there. You can take it out easily.
The truck is pure awesome. It is a huge mass of bricks, like really big, intact, it is one of my biggest trucks! I love just rolling it around because its so big! The opening hatch is really nice, its the same piece on Benny's Spaceship (X3).
Next: MINIFIGS!
All of them are great with a nice design. You get Kai Zuken for the second time, Garmadon (he has a ripped shirt in the back showing his Anacondrai tattoo), Nya in a great new design, Kapau the funny warrior and Chop'rai the snake (who is great!)
Overall, this is a great set for any Ninjago fan OR anyone looking for a big truck thats not $100 (like the giant Ultra Agents one…). I would recommend this to any LEGO fan! "

Better Than it Looks...
" When I saw this set on Brickipedia last year, I thought it looked flimsy and breakable. I decided to buy the whole collection and this one came too. Its not a bad set. It looks kind of unstable, but its actually very playable and not a bad build. But, this set only has 405 pieces and its $50. I usually only buy sets that are good deals like the Avengers Hydra Showdown (it has 220 pieces and its $20). But you can't judge a LEGO just by looking at its pieces.
First, this set has many features. it comes with a super jumper which is basically a piece of plastic that your mini figures get stuck to. Anyway, if you get the thing to actually make your figure jump, than it can hit the gun on the fortress and it knocks it over. On the inside of the fortress, you get a little holding cell for Loki's staff. That also has a little thingy that if you knock it over, the glass collapses. These are fun to play with your fingers, but the super jumpers don't make the magic happen. Its a very cool little fortress and its pretty tall. The gates explode and there is a cool design on the tree.
The truck is nice and the cannon is cool. You can fit one mini figure in it. If you bash the front of the truck, the cannon pops off and reveals the mini figure. Overall, pretty nice little vehicle. You get the Hydra sticker on it too.
This set includes five mini figures which is pretty nice. You get Quicksilver, Baron Von Strucker, Hulk, and Captain America with the not so super jumper. All the mini figures are pretty nice and their designs are cool.
The build is ok, it comes with 4 packs, but I really wouldn't call the 4th one a pack; it has the tree and the gates. Overall, its a pretty nice set it is definitely better than it looks. I would recommend this to any marvel super heroes fan who also likes LEGOs. "

Amazing Set
" When I first looked at this LEGO set on Brickipedia, I thought it looked tiny and overpriced. However, after I purchased this set, it looked better. I had a great time building this product and will proudly add it to my Ninjago: Rebooted collection. I love the Ninjago sets, but this one stands out as the greatest.
This set has 426 pieces and is $40. It is a pretty good deal. The set itself is somewhat small, but the features blow that tiny fact away.
Pros:
Ejectable motorcycle
LOTS of new pieces
New Spring-loaded shooter included
Two flick-fire missile launchers
Awesome car and motorcycle
The Nindroids and their jetpack/saw blade vehicle
Recon Nindroid
Cons:
Love the set, not really much to say, but I had trouble figuring out how the spring-loaded shooter shot.
Overall, this set is a good buy. I enjoyed putting it together, playing with it, and displaying it among my other Ninjago sets. The stickers are also great. If you are a Ninjago fan, BUY THIS SET! "

Yub Nub!
" I loved this set when I first saw it online. It looked like it would be the best, and honestly, it looks really good in your living room. The recreation of this scene is amazing! The details are fantastic, and the so many features make this set playable, even though it makes a great display! The 17 mini-figures in this set rock! The Ewoks are great and the other guys are really cool too.
Pros:
The rammers are great.
Tree-like houses are realistic.
Drums, captive poles, and spits are fun to use.
Tree houses can rotate.
Bridge is cool.
Awesome slide in separate house.
Net and pulley cool.
Cons:
Leaves in front fall off.
leaves of bottom make it hard for a speeder to come through.
Bendable parapets hard to put on.
I hope you enjoy playing with this awesome set and have a good time building it! "
