Three minifigs at $39.99 is almost embarrassing generosity — the Ninja Nightcrawler punches well above its price tag even if the car itself is more muscle than finesse.
Is the price fair?A+Three minifigs and 552 pieces for $39.99 is one of Ninjago's better deals, full stop.
Will you love it?C+Aggressive styling and a great minifig haul, though the build itself won't blow anyone away.
Holds its value?C-Soft secondary market means this one's for enjoying, not banking on.
The Full Take
The Ninja Nightcrawler is the rare Ninjago vehicle set where the deal is front and center: three minifigs, a solid 552-piece build, and a price that makes the whole package feel like LEGO® left money on the table. The car itself is chunky and aggressive, with a menacing low profile that fits the theme's aesthetic without trying too hard. Build-wise it's competent rather than clever — satisfying enough for an afternoon session but not the kind of thing that changes how you think about LEGO® engineering. What the set nails is the Ninjago mood: dark colors, sharp angles, and characters kids actually care about. The shelf presence is there if you're a theme collector, though it's a vehicle, so it competes with a lot of other Ninjago vehicles for real estate. The value hold is soft — the secondary market isn't hungry for this one — so the best reason to own it is because you want it, not because you're banking on it.
