Description

A fortress shaped like a volcano

The model represents a volcano that doubles as the villains' base within the Nexo Knights story. At 1,186 pieces, 70323 sits among the larger sets in the range, which translates into a longer build and more surface detail than a typical vehicle or building set. The cone shape is built up from dark plates and bricks that give the whole structure a rocky, brooding silhouette. Builders who enjoy unusual shapes rather than standard houses or vehicles will find plenty to like here.

Ten minifigures for big scenes

Ten minifigures is a generous number for a set of this size, which makes the lair appealing to collectors who like to stage scenes with several characters at once. Knights and villains face off around the volcano, so the set works as a play environment just as much as a shelf piece. With a figure count this high, it's worth checking the parts list on this page, since helmets, weapons and other accessories often turn out to be useful for other minifigure projects too.

Colours and building material

Black and dark grey dominate the colour scheme, offset by red and a bright trans-orange used to suggest lava. Across the model, 354 distinct elements are used, which says more about the level of detail than the overall piece count of 1,186 does on its own. Anyone hunting for a particular colour or shape for a separate build should take a look through the full parts list further down this page, since a set this varied often hides useful pieces.

Who the set suits

Jestro's Volcano Lair is aimed at Nexo Knights fans and anyone after a large, themed structure rather than an everyday building. The combination of a high minifigure count and a distinctive volcano shape also makes it a good candidate for diorama or photography projects. Builders looking to grow their spare-parts collection will appreciate the 354 unique elements too, which leave plenty of material for future modifications and custom builds.
