Nine minifigs in one box is absurd, and Dragon Pit somehow pulls it off without feeling like a cheap army pack — this is Ninjago at full throttle.
Is the price fair?A+Nine figs, a dragon, and an arena for $130 — this one was priced to move and it shows.
Will you love it?B-Pure Ninjago spectacle: if the theme speaks to you, this one speaks loudly.
Holds its value?C-Retains interest but not much resale heat — buy it to own it, not to flip it.
The Full Take
Dragon Pit lands at A- for a reason: it's one of the rare large Ninjago sets that justifies its size with actual substance. Nine minifigs, a dramatic arena, and a dragon that commands shelf space — the whole thing reads as a genuine spectacle rather than filler padding a price tag. The build itself moves through distinct sections, so the experience stays engaging across a long session. At $129.99 for what's here, this is LEGO® pricing a set to sell, and it shows. The weakest link is the parts selection — a lot of it is set-specific and not especially reusable if you ever break it down. But as a complete object, Dragon Pit delivers the kind of Ninjago energy that made the theme a phenomenon in the first place.
