How do we feel about ghost Cole?

A recent community discussion explores fan sentiment regarding the ghost version of the character Cole from the LEGO Ninjago theme, comparing Reddit reactions to a Tumblr poll. The original Tumblr poll reveals that the vast majority of fans, at 76.2%, felt that Cole being a ghost was good while it lasted but are glad he returned to being human. Meanwhile, 19.2% believe he should have remained a ghost, 0.8% hated the storyline entirely, and 3.8% chose other answers.

The discussion highlights detailed fan criticisms of how the ghost storyline was handled following the *Possession* storyline. Specifically, the fan proposal argues that Cole's ghostly state was underutilized and largely ignored during *Skybound*, and criticizes the *Day of the Departed* special for dividing its focus among returning villains instead of concentrating entirely on Cole's internal struggles. The suggested rewrite proposes extending the ghost storyline across multiple seasons, giving Cole a villain arc, and introducing a balanced gameplay-style mechanic where Cole could toggle between human and ghost forms with a cooldown penalty.

While these extensive narrative rewrites represent a passionate subset of the fandom rather than official LEGO media or upcoming set announcements, they showcase the enduring engagement fans have with classic Ninjago plotlines. For fans organizing their collections or displaying their favorite ninja minifigures from various eras, keeping your workspace neat is essential, so consider sorting your spare pieces with a LEGO storage organizer.
