Six minifigs in a Ninjago set at this price point is the kind of deal that makes you double-check the box. Dragon's Forge delivers a full cast, a satisfying forge environment, and enough fire-themed drama to justify every dollar.

Will you love it?B-A forge-themed Ninjago set with real environmental detail and a full character roster.

The Full Take
Dragon's Forge is one of those Ninjago sets that actually respects the theme it's selling — the forge aesthetic is committed, layered, and built with more structural personality than most mid-tier playsets manage. Six minifigs for $79.99 is a stacked roster by any measure, and the character variety here gives kids (and collectors) real options. The build itself earns its piece count with a multi-section layout that doesn't feel like filler. Where it wobbles is in overall completeness — the 'what you get' score reflects a set that's strong in parts but a touch thin on that wow centerpiece moment. Still, an A- overall isn't a gift; this set works hard across almost every dimension. If you're a Ninjago fan on any level, this one belongs in the conversation.
