Description

Five figures, the most in this line-up

Five minifigures makes S.O.G. Headquarters the most heavily crewed set here, enough to stage both an attack and a defence of the base at the same time. That figure count fits its role as a faction headquarters rather than a single vehicle, giving players enough characters to actually populate the multiple levels of the building rather than leaving rooms empty. For collectors, it's also one of the more useful sets in the wave for building up a larger cast of Sons of Garmadon figures.

A building, not a vehicle

Where much of this Ninjago wave focuses on vehicles, S.O.G. Headquarters is a multi-level building, giving the 531 pieces a very different job to do. Rather than assembling a single moving machine, the build stacks levels and rooms that can each be reached and played with individually. Across 222 unique parts, that structure brings a higher level of detail than many of the wave's vehicle sets, making the headquarters one of the more part-varied builds in the range.

Room to stage a raid

The multi-level layout means scenes can play out in several places on the model at once, whether that's ninja storming the upper floors or defenders holding a lower room. Compared with a compact vehicle set, a building like this offers considerably more surface area for parallel action, which is part of what makes headquarters sets a natural centrepiece for a wider Ninjago display alongside vehicles from the same season and its various minifigure factions.

A darker palette for enemy territory

Black, light bluish grey, dark bluish grey and red create a technical, faintly threatening look suited to a villain stronghold, with red picking out details such as warning lights against the darker base tones. The full parts list on this page catalogues all 222 elements individually, useful for tracking down a piece from a specific room or matching red and grey parts for other Ninjago builds.
