Description

A mech built as a dragon

The Green Ninja Mech Dragon combines two Ninjago motifs that usually appear separately in the film: the ninjas' mech suits and dragon-like creatures. The result is an upright mech with wings, a head and movable limbs that sits somewhere between robot and fabled beast. The build leans on plenty of jointed connector pieces, so the arms, legs and head can be posed once assembly is done. Builders tackling the model in stages will notice the head and wings come together as separate sub-assemblies before attaching to the body, a technique that reappears in other large Ninjago mechs.

Sand green and pearl gold as signature colours

The black, sand green, pearl gold and dark bluish grey palette sets this set apart from many other Ninjago models that lean on plain black-and-red or black-and-blue schemes. Sand green and pearl gold give the mech a more refined, less militaristic look, fitting the Green Ninja's role as a leader figure. Anyone hunting for parts in these less common colours can check exact quantities in the parts list on this page. On a shelf, that unusual colour choice makes the mech stand out clearly from the mostly dark vehicles released in the same wave.

Four minifigures from the film

The set includes four minifigures, which is above average for a single mech set and supports play scenes with several characters at once. Alongside the mech's pilot, the set typically includes further characters from the film, letting builders recreate confrontations without reaching for figures from other sets. The character mix also means the mech can slot into both friendly and villainous play scenes, depending on which figure is riding along.

167 parts for real variety

With 167 unique parts out of 544 pieces total, the Mech Dragon offers one of the more varied part lists among the sets compared here, meaning the build cycles through many different elements rather than repeating the same few. That makes the model worth a look for parts collectors after specialty pieces for their own creations, such as fantasy or robot builds. Sand green pieces in particular mix well with older Ninjago desert or temple-themed sets that share the same colour family.

FAQ

What is the Green Ninja Mech Dragon based on?
It draws on the combination of mech suit and dragon featured in the 2017 film The LEGO Ninjago Movie. It's not a vehicle but an upright, dragon-shaped combat figure.
Can the mech be posed?
Yes, the head, arms and legs connect through joint pieces, so it can be posed in different stances after building.
Which colours stand out in the set?
Alongside black and dark bluish grey, sand green and pearl gold are the most distinctive, two colours that show up less often in typical Ninjago sets.
