Garmadon in Pajamas (CMF)

The Garmadon in Pajamas minifigure is a delightful and humorous take on the typically menacing Lord Garmadon. Its appeal lies in the juxtaposition of the character's dark persona with the whimsical volcano-themed pajamas, making it a standout piece in any Ninjago collection. The unique torso and leg printing, exclusive to this minifigure, add to its desirability.

Collectors appreciate this minifigure not only for its novelty but also for its connection to the popular Ninjago theme. Garmadon is a central character in the Ninjago storyline, and this lighthearted variant offers a fun contrast to his more serious depictions. The minifigure's relative scarcity, appearing in only one set, further enhances its collectibility.

This minifigure is considered moderately rare due to its exclusive appearance in only one retired set, Volcano Garmadon (71019-16) from 2017. While not a limited edition or promotional item, its availability was limited to the lifespan of that specific set. The fact that the set is now retired contributes to the increasing rarity of this particular Garmadon variant on the aftermarket.

The Garmadon in Pajamas minifigure shows promising investment potential. Its single set appearance, combined with the enduring popularity of the Ninjago theme and Garmadon's central role in the series, makes it a sought-after item. As the Volcano Garmadon set continues to age and becomes harder to find, the value of this minifigure is likely to appreciate. Current value is not yet tracked, but similar exclusive minifigs from retired Ninjago sets have seen significant increases in value over time.
