Description

A fortress shaped like a dragon

The structure is built as a stylised dragon head, hiding a forge complete with anvil and fire details underneath. At 1,137 pieces, the model comes together in several sections that open up to reveal the interior. The build alternates between rough, castle-like elements and finer forge details, keeping things varied throughout. Splitting the build into several opening modules also makes it easier to act out individual scenes without rearranging the whole model.

Six minifigures for battle scenes

With 6 minifigures, both defenders and attackers of the fortress can be represented, each with matching weapons and gear. With six figures in play, it's easy to lose track of who carries what, so it's worth checking the parts list on this page, where every piece is listed individually with its colour. That makes it easy to confirm which armour pieces or weapons are actually included. In a Ninjago set with several factions, this overview also helps when putting together figures for a specific battle scene.

Fire and stone as the colour theme

Dark bluish grey and light bluish grey dominate the castle-like sections, while black adds shadow and technical detail. Red provides targeted accents on fire and forge elements, running through the set as a consistent theme colour. With 372 unique part types, this is one of the more part-rich sets in its Ninjago wave, adding plenty of variety to the build. That variety shows up clearly in the many small decorative pieces used on the walls, towers and forge details.

Parts for other fortress builds

The fortress's grey elements work well as a source of parts for other castle or fantasy projects, regardless of the Ninjago theme. The full parts list on this page can be checked in advance to see which specialty pieces, weapons or armour elements are available for other builds, before deciding to buy. Builders who already own other Ninjago sets can also put the red accent pieces to good use in other fire or volcano scenes.
