Description

Building with real play value

At the heart of this set is a mechanism many classic Ninjago vehicles skip: a pull-back motor. Pull the car back and release it, and it shoots forward on its own, adding real play value beyond simply assembling the model. At 181 pieces, the build stays manageable while still packing enough mechanical parts to house the motor securely without compromising the race car's outward shape. For children who want to play straight after building, that's a clear advantage over purely static models. The motor can also be pulled back repeatedly without losing its power over time.

Lloyd and a second ninja

Two minifigures come with the set, led by Lloyd, the green ninja. With 79 unique parts across 181 pieces, the ratio of specialised elements is fairly high for a vehicle set this size, most visible in the bodywork and drive mechanism. The full parts list with every colour is available on this page, handy for seeing exactly which pieces go into the chassis and motor before buying. Both figures suit the set's fast, action-driven feel and fit well into race scenes alongside other Ninjago vehicles. That makes it easy to set up a quick race on the living room floor.

Black, grey and lime as racing colours

Black and dark bluish grey form the chassis base, lime adds a Ninjago-typical accent tied to Lloyd's colour, and light bluish grey highlights technical details like the wheels and motor housing. This combination creates a sporty contrast that shows the car off well on a shelf, whether or not the pull-back mechanism is in action. The lime accents in particular set this model apart from the darker vehicles built for other ninjas.

For active builders and players

At 181 pieces, this set suits children who want to play as well as build, and Ninjago collectors after a vehicle with genuine function. Combined with other Ninjago vehicles or figures, it fits well into larger race scenes. The sturdy pull-back mechanism also holds up to repeated play without the bodywork losing its shape.
