Temple of Resurrection

The Temple of Resurrection is where the Ninjago story brings Lord Garmadon back, and this 765-piece set recreates that setting brick by brick. Nine minifigures make it one of the more crowded builds of its size, and 255 unique parts carry a dark palette of black, red, dark grey and white throughout. That combination of scale and cast gives the model plenty to work with beyond a simple static display.

Description

A multi-level temple build

The set assembles into a multi-storey temple with columns, stairways and a central chamber that forms the focal point of the scene. Black and dark grey pieces make up most of the structural shell, red elements mark out fire and power motifs, and white brings in lighter highlights against the darker base. Across 765 pieces the model reaches a scale that supports several separate play areas at once, rather than a single small vignette, which is useful for anyone wanting to stage more than one moment from the story.

Nine minifigures, one scene

Nine minifigures is a high count for a set this size, and it means several characters can be placed around the temple at the same time instead of acting out isolated one-on-one duels. That supports group scenes closer to what plays out on screen, with multiple ninja and opponents positioned around the structure at once. For anyone collecting minifigures specifically, the set is also worth considering purely for its figure count and accessories, separate from the building itself.

Opening panels and hidden details

Several wall sections and panels open or fold during play rather than staying fixed, so the temple can change configuration once it's built rather than functioning purely as a backdrop. With 255 unique parts, the build alternates between larger structural sections and smaller decorative pieces on column tops and roof edges, which keeps the assembly varied from start to finish and adds a fair amount of texture to the finished model.

A darker palette to build with

The black, dark grey, red and white combination gives this set a noticeably darker look than the brighter Ninjago villages and vehicles released around the same time, and that makes the parts useful for anyone assembling their own villain bases or dark temple scenes. The parts list on this page breaks every colour and quantity down individually, so specific red accent pieces or black structural elements can be looked up directly rather than guessed at.
