Ninjago Lightning Dragon’s Mission
Lightning Dragon Battle set is the rescue story of ninja Sensei Wu, who has been captured by Frakjaw and Kruncha. They’ve also stolen the nunchucks of lightning, and are getting away in their helicopter. Lightning Dragon and Jay’s mission is to rescue Sensei Wu and recover the weapons; however, the race is on before Krakjaw and Kruncha can escape to the underworld, when it all will be too late. This mission is fraught with danger, as the helicopter is equipped with many powerful weapons.
Why Should You Buy Lego Ninjago Lightning Dragon Battle Set For Your Child?
This unique set includes a total of 645 Lego pieces, to make a helicopter and a dragon – while it is on the pricier side, you actually get good value. A number of parents will notice that it is not cheap, yet consider just how much you are getting.
The models of the skeleton helicopter and the Lightning Dragon, look terrific once you’ve built them. Putting them together can be a challenge, and an ideal project for kids between the ages of 8 and 14 to work on. The minifigures are made to fit inside the helicopter or on top of the Lightning Dragon. The completed structures are now ready for kids to recreate the famous battle.
This makes a tremendous Christmas gift as kids love the excitement they associate with ninjas. They’re excellent fighters, and you just never know where one could be hiding! The Ninjago Lego series tells the story of the good ninja Sensei Wu, looking to protect the neighbourhood against his evil brother. This latest set is a new chapter in the continuing story.
The quality and detail on the Ninjago minifigures is awesome, appropriate for a ‘Limited Edition’. From Sensei Wu’s wise-looking beard to Kruncha’s scary face and skeleton body – these are unlike other previous Lego minifigures. Some of the characters have been featured in other sets of the Ninjago series; however, you will find there are subtle differences, such as different colors and weapons.
