📝 Our Take

The Boulder Blaster is a solid mid-range Ninjago vehicle. This set offers a fun build with some cool play features and a decent selection of minifigures from the Tournament of Elements storyline.

This set is perfect for Ninjago fans and kids who enjoy action-packed play. The rapid shooter function and posable wings add to the playability, and the build is challenging enough for younger builders without being overly complex.

Skip this if you're looking for a more intricate building experience or a larger display piece. Consider the larger Ninjago temples or dragons for a more challenging build.

Investment Grade
⏳ Appreciating
The Boulder Blaster, being a retired Ninjago set, has a decent investment potential. The Ninjago theme is consistently popular, and this set's manageable size and unique play features make it appealing to collectors. While not a particularly rare set, its rising price trend indicates growing demand. However, its relatively low piece count compared to other sets in the theme might limit significant appreciation.
