Lloyd / Young Lloyd (Legacy)

Young Lloyd from the Legacy line is a desirable minifigure for Ninjago collectors due to his unique design and association with the popular Ninjago City Gardens set. The minifigure captures Lloyd in his younger years, offering a nostalgic appeal for long-time fans of the series. This version of Lloyd has a unique head print with a scared expression on the reverse.

The gold dragon print on his torso and the short green legs make this minifigure stand out from other Lloyd variants. The tan bowl cut hair piece is also a unique element that enhances its collectibility. Mint condition figures are highly prized, as are those with all original accessories.

This minifigure appears exclusively in one large, retired set: Ninjago City Gardens. While the set was widely available during its production run, the single-set appearance makes this Young Lloyd relatively less common than other versions of Lloyd that appear in multiple sets. As the Ninjago City Gardens set has retired, this minifigure will become harder to acquire over time, especially in new or like-new condition.

Given the popularity of the Ninjago theme and the desirability of the Ninjago City Gardens set, Young Lloyd has solid investment potential. The minifigure's value is likely to increase as the set becomes increasingly rare and sought after by collectors. The character of Lloyd is central to the Ninjago story, which further drives demand. Comparing this minifigure to other Ninjago exclusives and early versions of the ninja, it's reasonable to expect a steady appreciation in value.
