Two Spinjitzu spinners, two ninjas, twenty bucks — and yet LEGO® somehow made that feel like too much to ask. The play concept is fun, the price is where this one falls apart.

The Full Take
Spinjitzu Nya & Wu is built around a simple, satisfying idea: two spinning tops, two rivals, one showdown. The actual play mechanic works — kids can battle these things across a table and have a genuine moment. Nya is a welcome inclusion, and both minifigs are solid representations of classic Ninjago characters. The build itself is light, as expected for spinner sets, so don't walk in expecting an involved afternoon project. At $19.99 for what's here, LEGO® is asking more than the set justifies — that's the honest hang-up. If you find it discounted, the calculus shifts; at full retail, it's a tough sell against what else $20 buys in the Ninjago lineup.
