Samurai X / Nya (Rebooted)

The Samurai X Nya minifigure is highly desirable for Ninjago collectors, as it represents a pivotal moment in the series when Nya takes on the Samurai X identity. This version stands out due to its unique combination of samurai armor and the character's distinctive head print. The pearl gold bucket is also a unique and desirable piece.

The minifigure's appeal is further enhanced by the character's popularity within the Ninjago storyline. Nya's transformation into Samurai X is a significant plot point, making this minifigure a must-have for fans looking to complete their collection of key characters. Condition is important; look for figures with undamaged prints and accessories.

This minifigure appears exclusively in one retired set, the 'Battle for Ninjago City' (70728-1), released in 2014. This single set appearance contributes to its relative scarcity on the aftermarket. While not a regional exclusive or limited edition, its availability is constrained by the retirement of the set, making it harder to find than minifigures appearing in multiple, readily available sets.

Given its single set appearance and the popularity of the Ninjago theme, the Samurai X Nya minifigure holds moderate investment potential. The value is likely to appreciate over time as the set becomes harder to find and demand from collectors remains steady. The character's significance in the Ninjago storyline further supports its potential for value appreciation.
