Eight minifigs, a massive volcano fortress, and a price tag that only barely clears the bar — the Temple of the Ultimate Ultimate Weapon is a lot of set trying hard to justify a hundred dollars.
The parts alone are worth about 138% of the street price — the basis for this B+ price read.
BargainThe parts alone are worth more than you pay — $193 of parts for $140.
The Temple of the Ultimate Ultimate Weapon is one of those flagship sets that looks better in the commercial than it does on the shelf. The build is sprawling and theatrical — a volcano lair with collapsing walls, hidden chambers, and enough play features to keep a kid busy for an afternoon. Eight minifigs is a strong haul, and some of those character selections are legitimately hard to get elsewhere. But at $99.99, the price sits just a tick too high for what the finished model actually delivers in terms of display polish. It's clearly built for play, not for a shelf, which is fine — just know what you're buying. The B+ overall comes from the package working well as a Ninjago Movie experience, even if no single element is jaw-dropping.
