> 24 hourThis lego ninjago set is huge! It will give your kiddo hours of build time fun and hours of play time fun! The Lego ninjago sets are always such a hit with the kids because they know there is a ton of playability to them. Definitely scan the QR code for extra play! Lots of mini figures and bits and pieces for pretend play. This set in particular is an awesome stand alone set for play purposes. Though if you have other ninjago sets they pair perfectly as well of course! This set was easy to assemble for my eleven year old, but did take several hours spread out over several days. She gets as much enjoyment out of building as she does with playing so this was a solid week of awesome for her! (Everything IS awesome!). ;p Very very giftable for the lego ninjago kid aficionado! I would absolutely buy this again as a gift and would recommend it to others!

> 24 hourThis arrived after Christmas...as expected. My grandson opened the box today 12-31-22. Much to his dismay he found: Missing pieces: One bag, stickers, and all the figures. One other bag was mislabled. A total mess and will be returned.

> 24 hourI really like the crystallized theme for season 15 of Ninjago! The Crystal King Temple set is a playset, with two separate builds. This set actually reminds me a little of a previous Ninjago set, Empire Temple of Madness, because this one also has obstacles for the ninjas to overcome. The temple build has at least two traps: the stairs come apart and there is a trip rod by the nunchucks at the top. The throne build has the super cool pink crystal prison. I believe this is the first official example of the tensegrity technique, where it looks like a build is floating. The set has a ton of translucent dark pink pieces; that’s the main reason I like the crystallized theme. The pieces look very cool with this set, but I could also see using them on other builds (MOCs). The set has six minifigs. The Crystal King and a Vengestone Guard, and then the four exclusive versions of Cole, Zane, Kai, and Jay. The sticker sheet is minimal, and you don’t need to apply the stickers for the look and playability of the set.

> 24 hourOne a scale of one to ten on difficulty this is about a six in difficulty. It is pretty okay to put together. I would say the stairs are a bit of the annoying part as there are so many small pieces to make the stairway. It is very difficult to keep the crystals from getting knocked off as well. A simple hit on the crystal will cause it to get dislodged from the clip. There are quite a few pieces and my nephew was able to basically assemble this in about four hours on his own. The building itself is quite large to be honest and there are actually a ton of small pieces to make it up which make it a bit fragile compared to many other of the lego parts. The design is actually really niced but all the small pieces on the side are a bit easy to break off. Regardless, it looks really nice. There are not real moving parts which is great. The crystal part is really nice looking and creative. There are also six lego figures included which is pretty awesome. It is two bad guy and four ninja character. You can fit the main villain on top of the building. I think the villain figures look the best. It looks like an oni villain and is the most detailed compared to many other devices. They all come with weapons and one of figures has four arms. I do not follow ninjago so I do not even know the characters by name or if they even have any names. Honestly the details on this set is really nice. It does not have too many stickers compared to many other ninjago legos. The building does not have any moving parts. It is fairly sturdy for the most part but dropping it will certainly break it. Overall I think this lego set is a more worth wild investment. It is more of a challenge to assemble compared to many other ninjago lego set while also giving you better figures as a result. The building itself can be a bit flimsy and easy to break apart if you are not careful. It has a nice purple and dark color and the ninja figures are great to add to the collection. I also like how the figures all have a unique look to them as well as having one figure with multiple arms.

> 24 hourMy son has been really into Lego since visiting Lego Land, so this was great. Its colorful and my son has been in love with the Ninjago series, so this was perfect. Just like you would expect from Lego, the quality was great and I loved that the building pamphlet was online through a QR code as I tend to lose those. The set looked challenging, but was actually great for beginners and my son and I had a blast building it together. I think I actually had more fun than they did.

> 24 hourThis was a cool set for my boys to put together! They worked on it for a couple of days (its big!!) and then enjoyed playing with it for quite a while after. The instructions were clear and easy to understand, and it coordinates well with the other Ninjago sets.

> 24 hourWe were so excited to add this set to our collection together with the large Crystal King build. My son is a bit too young to build this on his own, but we spent a number of days putting it together. This is a pretty large set and has over 700 pieces, and there are two main structures as part of this set. The colors are bright and vivid and we really liked the pink accent pieces. There are also six mini figures included, and the Crystal King has a throne to go along with him. My son really liked the traps and floating prison. The quality on this set is what I have come to expect from Lego and it is a really cool set to add to our ever-growing collection.

> 24 hourThis Ninjago set would make a unique addition to any collection. It has the same quality that lego always has and there are a lot of unique pieces and figures within this set.

> 24 hourThis is such a cool Lego set! Its especially great for those who like mini figures as it comes with 4 exclusives: Cole, Zane, Kai and Jay, plus Crystal King minifigure with 4 arms, and a Vengestone Guard with crystal armor. It also has several traps in it and my boys were occupied with this set for hours - putting it together and playing with it. The directions were clear and easy to follow. Lego sets are expensive, but you definitely get what you pay for as other building sets dont compare in quality and uniqueness.

> 24 hourI’m always impressed with the creativity of Lego designers and especially how, over the last few years, they’ve been incorporating popular building techniques from the fanbase into their sets. Not only does this set have a variety of mini figures, which is always a welcomed addition for added playtime, but also includes a tensegrity floating jail on the side of the palace. You have to see it for yourself or look it up to understand it, but this is a super cool feature which makes the jail look like it’s actually floating off the side of the palace. There is a collapsing staircase and floating stone platforms for the mini figures to jump across and a ton of cool looking crystal shard pieces. I also think it’s a clever use of mini figure body pieces for the crystal king’s design for having 4 arms. Any Ninjago lover is going to have hours of fun with this set!
