📝 Our Take

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

Garmadon, Garmadon, GARMADON! (70656) is a brilliantly eccentric piece of cinematic mech madness. Capturing one of the most delightfully absurd moments from The LEGO Ninjago Movie, this set delivers a massive shark-themed war machine piloted by the ultimate villain.

This set is perfect for Ninjago fans, mech enthusiasts, and builders who love quirky designs. Offering an engaging, character-driven build paired with fantastic play features and a great civilian setup, it shines both on the shelf and during play sessions.

Skip this if you prefer sleek, traditional mechs or have limited display space. The bulky silhouette and specific movie aesthetic might not fit into a standard sci-fi or fantasy LEGO city layout.

Not enough price history for a trend

Investment Grade

⏳ Retired

As a retired set from The LEGO Ninjago Movie wave, 70656-1 benefits from the enduring popularity of the Ninjago theme and the unique nature of movie-exclusive designs. With 830 pieces and six minifigures—including key characters like Lord Garmadon and Lloyd—it holds a solid nostalgic appeal for collectors who chased the 2017 theatrical lineup. However, because market price history is currently unknown, prospective buyers and sellers should watch secondary market trends closely to gauge actual appreciation. Investing in retired movie tie-in sets always carries some degree of risk, particularly depending on original box condition and shifting collector demand outside of core evergreen themes. While quirky mech designs like this shark-sub hybrid have dedicated fanbases, they may not command the universal liquidity of modular buildings or Star Wars UCS sets. Buyers should balance their enthusiasm for the theme against potential storage costs and the volatility of secondary market pricing.

Compared to other mechs from The LEGO Ninjago Movie, such as the Fire Mech (70615) or Green Ninja Mech Dragon (70612), this shark mech leans much harder into comedic villainy and eccentric design. While traditional mechs offer heroic humanoid poses, the 70656 set stands out with its nautical beast aesthetic and includes a fun civilian vignette that standard mech sets lack.

6 Minifigures Included

Shark Army Thug with Yellow Arms

B+

Lloyd (LEGO Ninjago Movie)

The set includes six standout figures, highlighted by Lord Garmadon in his movie attire and civilian favorites Nomis (Hot Dog Guy) and Nancy. It's a fantastic assortment that bridges heroic ninja action with everyday Ninjago City life.
