Description

A workshop for the ninja village

The Blacksmith Shop belongs to the first Ninjago wave of 2011, when ninja, masters and skeleton warriors took the lead roles. Instead of a vehicle you get a place to carry the story on: a small workshop where weapons are made before they show up in battle. At 189 pieces the build is manageable, but the forge, workbench and accessories make the model feel lived in rather than just a backdrop for the figures.

Dark colours, many special parts

Black and reddish brown set the tone, joined by light and dark bluish grey that suggest metal, stone and soot. The variety is striking: 83 different parts sit among only 189 pieces, so very little repeats. That keeps the build interesting but makes sorting a little slower. For collectors, such mixed contents are valuable because they supply tools, small accessories and roof elements that rarely come individually in other sets.

Two figures, plenty of play

Two minifigures come with it, so both work and fighting can be acted out straight away: one forges while the other defends or looks on. Because the set is small, it fits beside larger Ninjago models without taking over the table. Children who invent their own stories tend to like locations like this, since they do not dictate a plot and leave room for the figures to go wherever the game takes them.

Parts list and next ideas

The complete parts list with colours and quantities is further down the page, handy for checking a used copy. As your collection grows, the “What can I build?” tool shows which other models your bricks allow. The dark browns and greys in particular suit castles, huts or ruins, so the set can live on well beyond Ninjago once you decide to take it apart and reuse the pieces.
