The Full Take
The Red Temple lands a D, and the score is fair. At 35 pieces you're getting a decorative chunk rather than a set — there's nothing here that reads as finished on a shelf, nothing to build a play scenario around, and no minifig to anchor any of it. The appreciation score of 5.5 is the one bright spot, suggesting some secondary market movement over time, but that's a thin reason to seek this out. The build clocks in fast because there's almost nothing to build; 'length' scoring a 3.2 tells you everything about how thin the experience is. Ninjago has genuine standout sets in its catalog — this one exists at the margins of the theme, useful mainly as a small scene-filler if you're building a massive MOC display.
