📝 Our Take

AI-assisted editorial summary, grounded in our LEGO database and public community discussions. How we use AI

The Samurai VXL is a unique vehicle from the Ninjago Hands of Time season. Its sleek design, incorporating both robotic and samurai elements, makes it stand out amongst other Ninjago vehicles. It's a cool blend of mech and car that fits well within the futuristic/historical vibe of Ninjago.

This set is perfect for Ninjago fans looking for something a little different. The build is engaging without being overly complex, making it suitable for older kids and adults who enjoy the Ninjago theme. The vehicle has good playability and display potential.

Skip this if you prefer more traditional LEGO vehicles or are not a fan of the Hands of Time storyline. Consider other Ninjago sets like 71737-1, the X-1 Ninja Charger, for a more classic car build, or 71705-1, Destiny's Bounty, for a larger ship-based experience.

Investment Grade

⏳ Retired

The Samurai VXL, being a retired Ninjago set, has potential as an investment. Ninjago remains a popular theme with a dedicated fanbase, which drives demand for older sets. The set's piece count and unique design contribute to its desirability. However, its value is dependent on the condition of the set and its original packaging. While not a guaranteed high-return investment, it's likely to appreciate moderately over time, especially if kept sealed.

⚖ Compare Similar Sets

The Samurai VXL offers a unique blend of vehicle and mech design, setting it apart from other Ninjago vehicles that lean more heavily into either category. Sets like the X-1 Ninja Charger (71737-1) provide a more classic car experience, while the Fire Fang (70674-1) offers a creature-based build. The VXL appeals to those seeking a more futuristic and distinctive vehicle within the Ninjago universe.

4 Minifigures Included

Samurai X (P.I.X.A.L) (Hands of Time)

The set includes Samurai X (P.I.X.A.L) which is a desirable minifigure, and Nya (Hands of Time) is also unique to this wave of Ninjago sets. Rivett and General Machia are less exclusive, but complete the villainous side of the set.
