The Ninjago Training Set is a fantastic entry point into the world of Ninjago.

🏆 Best For: Ideal for young LEGO builders and Ninjago fans looking for a quick and engaging project ⏱ 2.0 hr build 🧩 219 pcs
★★★★☆ 4.0

Fans appreciate the set's compact design and engaging play features, making it a great entry point into the Ninjago theme. Some feel the single minifigure limits the play value, but overall it is considered a well-designed and enjoyable set for its size.

📝 Our Take

The Ninjago Training Set is a fantastic entry point into the world of Ninjago. This set provides a compact and engaging build that perfectly captures the spirit of the ninja training grounds. It’s a great way to introduce younger fans to the Ninjago universe or to add a unique training dojo to an existing Ninjago display.

This set is perfect for younger LEGO enthusiasts and Ninjago fans looking for a fun and accessible build. The 219 pieces provide a satisfying building experience without being overwhelming, and the inclusion of the Kai minifigure adds significant play value. The set's compact size also makes it ideal for display in smaller spaces.

Skip this if you're seeking a complex, highly detailed build or a large cast of minifigures. If you're looking for a more challenging Ninjago set with more characters, consider larger Ninjago Temple sets like 71705-1 Destiny's Bounty or 71741-1 Ninjago City Gardens.

📈 Investment Analysis

→ Price stable
B-
Investment Grade
⏳ Active
The Ninjago Training Set, released in 2012, offers moderate investment potential due to its retired status and the enduring popularity of the Ninjago theme. While the piece count is relatively low, its age and the collectibility of Ninjago sets contribute to its value. However, the single minifigure and availability on the secondary market may limit significant price appreciation. Investors should monitor its price trend and consider its condition to maximize potential returns. Compared to larger, more iconic Ninjago sets, its appreciation may be more gradual.

It is a great alternative for those who want to experience the Ninjago theme without a significant time or financial investment.
