Gosh darn it, I got so excited when I saw the elbows. Of course they'd ruin the shoulders. Because heaven forbid Lego ever make a set with more than two joints per limb.
I absolutely love this set. I have no developed or tangible reasons why, I just look at this and absolutely love it. Looking at this thing just pleases me, I will absolutely be picking it up. Thank you for the phenomenal and well detailed reviews as always. Stay awesome, jang.
If you move the ball joint on the wings down onto where the tiny cilinder is, the wings have so much more movement. So you don’t need any pieces outside of the set to let the wings have loads of articulation
I found flipping the wing holders helped the most...jang sorta does it but you gotta switch the wings around. You can also move the stud shooters up and grey pieces on the body back further. It looks the same but has full motion.. not sure why lego stumbled there.
well, it is over 1000 part, but is makes me wonder, is the terrain really necesary for this set? maybe remove it and 1 character, and it could be 60 euros
@@thealmightybrick1393 One of them was in the most recent plane set Jang reviewed, it had a sticker showing a map of the plane going over an Island that was shaped like Voya Nui. I don't remember what the other one was.
13:04 Jang: no spoilers for those who haven’t seen season 13 because in their region there on season 12 Me: in the uk season 11 only finished the other day
The dragons from the past few years having similarly built heads kinda reminds me of how they all used to have the same head mold in the first two years of Ninjago
@@AbbeyThoughts They did not When the dragons first came out in the Skeleton, Serpentine and Stone Army Waves The Dragons had the same rubbery bottom jaw piece and there were two rubbery upper jaw pieces One was used the most on the Ice, Lightning and Fire dragons along with 3/4 ultra dragon heads while the second one which was more bulky was used on the Earth Dragon 1/4 heads on the Ultra Dragon and the Golden Dragon
@@AbbeyThoughts ice, fire, and lightning had the same molded heads, earth and the golden dragon shared the same molded head. same goes for the original ultra dragon
That nya figure is my favourite figure for her character. Really nice printing/design. The bad guy printed legs/torso are also really good. Son is looking forward to hte skellies more than anything else in the set.
Did you guys every notice how ever season since season 10 the main villain had a dragon. The Ice Empire’s dragon, Ungami and his dragon which was himself, and now the Skull Sorcerer’s dragon Grief Bringer.
If anyone sees this over a year after the review, there is an easy way to modify the wings so that you can fold them in with the black printed half facing up, and with no extra pieces required. Just adjust the connection at the ball joint to the technic lift arms by one stud/pin up.
Omg. I have never wanted a LEGO ninjago dragon more than I want that one. I mean, it has so much detail. And the rib cage with the green thing is so cool
I got this set snd the skull dungens and i just feel like you get so much more withe the dungen for only 20 bucks but yeah i do like the dragon to but the wings take so much space
you missed a BIG part of the set. the rubber band is also there cuz youre supposed to push down on that new 2020 piece toward the back of the model and the rib cage will open and the transe-green ball will drop out
This set is just perfect, I always want a skeleton dragon for my skeleton horde, now I will have it. But again, the prices of legos are going higher every years, but this set has a really correct price. I'd like a tuto for the wings.
I would have had asked for Jang to include spoilers but after seeing some comments, I like the way how Jang hints things enough to interest casual viewers, great job!
JANGBRICKS your reviews are Awesome, your very well informed n your description of the sets are always executed in such a "GREAT" way. Keep this Amazing channel going 😁😁😁
I don't really get many Ninjago sets but I really like Nia so I started collecting all her figs. She almost always has the best looking prints and has a tonne of variety through her history. This is no exception and she definitely looks the coolest of these three. I also love the board game thing they done with this series. Rad.
The way those gameplay terrain modules look, they look like it could be a Ninjago Roguelike table top with enough ingenuity. Great reviews as always. I'd love to get this dragon and make him look like Sindragosa from Warcraft.
1. Flip the wings 2. Switch the left and right wing around from the long technic pin(so not upside-down) 3. Move stud shooters to top of technic joint holder 4. Move the grey body piece and 2 corner grey pieces further up to body 5. Enjoy full flappable motion.
Certainly one of, if not the nicest, dragons Lego has made, period. Unique skeleton white color, surely not the new Destiny's Bounty Ferrari red but a staid white and black of the new Lego Speed's Koenigsegg Jesko! Fun, Sturdy and substantial build, good play features such as a spider bomb and dual shootable gun barels, neatly built into the dragon. The dragon also matches perfectly with the larger Dungeon set in both design and color scheme. For Lego dragon lovers, just go ahead and get one while you still can. You won't be disappointed.
I’m not a ninjago person but these sets look incredible! Really hoping they use some of these in future Lotr sets and that health bar has Zelda written all over it.
I've notice LEGO no including as many spares either. It seems to be that they only include one spare per set of each piece, rather than per bag. So a set which has multiple sections which use a stud in a specific colour, for example, will only have a spare of that piece in the first bag and there won't be more spares in the rest of the bags containing that piece. The exception is pieces for shooting weapons which still get multiple spares.
I'm slightly concerned about the number of holes designed into the cloth wings, it feels like it could tear pretty easily. Apart from that this set looks positively fantastic!
I'm honestly surprised that Lego hasn't done any kind of tabletop game setup before now. It seems like Lego is a medium that lends itself perfectly to that idea.
This is a must-buy for me. I like dragons, I like skeletons, and I especially like undead skeletal dragons, and was always hoping one would appear as a LEGO set. Not digging the rubber band though...but I guess that'll be easy enough to modify out since the bomb-dropping feature's not necessary for me.
Love Ninjago dragons! Agree with the limitations on those wings. Awkward that they can't be lowered down a little further than what you have shown. Thanks again for the review.
Hey jang, I was wondering if your gonna start reviewing mega construx call of duty sets again. I know the distribution is not the best to say the least, but despite all that they are still releasing sets and they’re pretty good quality.
I don’t really have the want or the space for any big Lego dragons but I do need that Skull Sorcerer (for his hat) and every Nya variant because Nya is great.
Excellent review for an excellent set. I think a skeleton dragon is a very high concept for ninjago that I'm surprised they haven't done before. But to me personally, I think they didn't really take the skeleton part of it too seriously. It looks to me like they just slapped a ribcage on a typical ninjago dragon build and called it a skeleton, cause every other part of the Dragon just looks too thick to be truly bony. I was all for getting the set when it was first revelaed, but after noticing these flaws I a actually purchased the Lego ideas dinosaur fossils set to make my own. Overall thought it is still a great playset.
the show depicts this as a large dragon, so making it skinnier would be a bad idea for play value and will definitely not be very sturdy. the only workaround I can see is making it mostly from CCBS to give it a larger bonny feel.
Overall great video and great review. I would really really love to see your thoughts on the dungeon set next. In my opinion that's the best set from this wave.
Gosh darn it, I got so excited when I saw the elbows. Of course they'd ruin the shoulders. Because heaven forbid Lego ever make a set with more than two joints per limb.
lol
Get one $10 mech set(if you don’t have the ball joints) and do a little modification.
First they killed Bionicle and now they won't give us articulated dragons
dragon: I have knee joints
designer: but what did it cost?
dragon: my shoulders
lol
Sadly it's true
LOL!
I absolutely love this set. I have no developed or tangible reasons why, I just look at this and absolutely love it. Looking at this thing just pleases me, I will absolutely be picking it up. Thank you for the phenomenal and well detailed reviews as always. Stay awesome, jang.

DeadlyRaptor -Z thanks
Oh my god thank you, I was debating ripping mine apart and doing the wings from scratch. That makes things way easier.
Useful gimmicks in a LEGO set genuinely surprises me
I know right?!
Me : looks at Lego
Also me : looks at wallet
Wallet : *nervous sweating*
Ha
Nevermind the wallet just buy the dragon! ha ha
well, it is over 1000 part, but is makes me wonder, is the terrain really necesary for this set? maybe remove it and 1 character, and it could be 60 euros
LOL!
This isn't an expensive set though lol
The tridax pod is Lego's 3rd Bionicle reference this year.
What were the two others?
Yeah... :( I miss Bionicle.
Yeah I saw the action feature and was like "Hey wait that's just a tridax pod!"

So the dragon drops it's glowing green heart on you, which then bursts into spiders...
That's kinda terrifying.
I guess that's the gimmick but it didnt do that in the show
ya thats a little weird
Yep, i agree and when i think about it it reminds me of the orbs in the bodies of the Makuta sets in 2008 in the Bionicle line.

Jake Haines , You do know you can watch every season we episode on RUclips right
I live in uk and there's something called youtube
I really like the board game function for these new sets, really interesting and unique.
It reminds me of those dungeon like sets LEGO made back in the day
Mom told me I could buy a board game little does she know
Curious what that statue is all about... You intrigued me with your lack of spoilers!
It's funny how you said whip around and spin , your reviewing a Ninjago set
The dragon could swoop really low down and grab a minifigure in its rib cage.
When the ribs that you’re eating fight back
The Skull Sorcerer Figure is so good! I kinda prefer him over Unagami.
Wow I remember watching this guy a few years back, his reviews were soo good and still are now, keep up the good work!
Did anyone hear the 2013 classic JANG music or am I going insane?
I dunno where I am all I can here is thunder
It's ok, you're not going insane
He’s been using it a lot recently
I did
It’s nostalgic and I love it!
this is such a beautiful piece, it's kinda overwhelming how much lego has progressed over the years.
I love and have all the Heroica sets so I can't wait to get my hands on this line. Those health packs are so reminiscent of the ones in Heroica!
There aren’t any health packs in this set; I have it, don’t see health packs anywhere.
The dragons from the past few years having similarly built heads kinda reminds me of how they all used to have the same head mold in the first two years of Ninjago
If I remember correctly, no? Each Dragon had a unique head shape and mold. I might be wrong though.
@@AbbeyThoughts They did not

@@AbbeyThoughts ice, fire, and lightning had the same molded heads, earth and the golden dragon shared the same molded head. same goes for the original ultra dragon
Mr.legoguy I think only the Earth dragon had a unique mould.
This whole season is like a lego version of DnD I might pick up a set if they make any that's for 20$ and under
Wu’s battle dragon is $20 and the three spinjitzu slam sets are $10 each
If you want a 20$ one, the Wu’s Dragon ninjago season 13 set is your best bet.
There is wu's battle dragon comes with the ivory blade aswell goes for 20 bucks
good luck
Wu's Battle Dragon is $20 and I might pick it up. Jang reviewed it a week or so ago and he also liked it.
The wings are locked so that they don't collapse when you swoosh the dragon around while playing
That nya figure is my favourite figure for her character. Really nice printing/design. The bad guy printed legs/torso are also really good. Son is looking forward to hte skellies more than anything else in the set.
This is my most favourite motm set, I hope to pick it up soon
Something that I have always liked about jang’s reviews is that he does the figures last. Idk why but I usually skip the figure part in others reviews
Did you guys every notice how ever season since season 10 the main villain had a dragon. The Ice Empire’s dragon, Ungami and his dragon which was himself, and now the Skull Sorcerer’s dragon Grief Bringer.
Griefbringer isn’t his Dragon. He doesn’t ride it.
Neither does Unagami, as the Dragon *is* Unagami.
Paul Rance just because he doesn’t ride Grief Bringer doesn’t make it not his. He obviously has control over it.
If anyone sees this over a year after the review, there is an easy way to modify the wings so that you can fold them in with the black printed half facing up, and with no extra pieces required. Just adjust the connection at the ball joint to the technic lift arms by one stud/pin up.

Omg. I have never wanted a LEGO ninjago dragon more than I want that one. I mean, it has so much detail. And the rib cage with the green thing is so cool
Enjoying seeing JANG in these reviews. Good work.
Easily my favourite season 13 set
Same too. Looks phenomenal.

These sets are almost available! Finally!
That statue feature is giving me some Harry Potter feels, I'd love to see a full Wizards Chest board from Philosopher's Stone.
I love this set! Not my favorite from the wave though. My favorite is the Skull Sorcerer's Dungeons.
The blue piece on the tail is very easy to hide aswell, just use a black or gun metal gray modified stud with a pole connection in it
Cyclondo? Sounds like some one has been rewatching possession
Possession was the best season
Change my mind
1. Flip the wings
2. Switch the left and right wing around from the long technic pin(so not upside-down)
3. Move stud shooters to top of technic joint holder
4. Move the grey body piece and 2 corner grey pieces further up to body
5. Enjoy full flappable motion.
The show is still on episode 27 of season 11 here, and we never got season 10
???? Season 10 has 4 episodes and it’s called March of the oni, it’s on Netflix

This whole tabletop setup reminds me so much of the Orient Expedition subtheme from adventurers. And boy does that makes me fuzzy and happy
Man, I love that set!!!!!! Looking really menacing...and SUPER COOL!⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐😀😀
That Sets about Lego Ninjago Season 13 kinda reminds me about Lego Heroica.
Aaah Good times.
Whip around and spin ! Nice easter egg there !
This is my fav set because ive never gotten a dragon set and it has my favourite ninja...JAY!
Yes ! Finally ! The video I have been waiting for ! 👍
i would suspect that the 3rd ninja does not have a stand in this set because you would put them in the spinjitzu cone...

You’d think they’d do the wing exoskeleton in white instead of black because it could further imitate skeletal wings
I'm slightly concerned about the number of holes designed into the cloth wings, it feels like it could tear pretty easily. Apart from that this set looks positively fantastic!
It doesn’t tear. The holes are for design, and nothing more.
Awesome set!
I'm honestly surprised that Lego hasn't done any kind of tabletop game setup before now. It seems like Lego is a medium that lends itself perfectly to that idea.
You don't see many gimmicks in Lego anymore. I guess you could say they have grown out of that stuff now.
I got this today and it’s amazing and it’s the biggest Lego dragon I own and own 7 dragons

Nice review as always jang! Great set!

I like the brick built heads because u can change the bricks so u can change the dragons bricks to a different color
Where is the demonstration of the dropping action feature?
Last 2 minutes.
I customized mine w some extra white and green parts and painted the underside of the wings so its black like the other side. It looks very mean.
Nya was a favourite character in the possession season cause she got her water spinjitzu and found her true potential
Now this is awesome
hey jang you should start making videos about your costum builds and maybe some small mocs that you could teach how to make
O gee like the joint crackling is even more skeleton like
@jangbricks do you know why there no LEGO at stores like Walmart and like every where has no sets are they not being made any more :(
Going to get one of these for Easter. Which do you think displays better: this, or the Skull Sorcerer's Dungeon?
I will buy this set and it will be a great environmental piece.
Probably the coolest dragon in Ninjago history. The only competition I'd say is the Firstbourne
The symbols from the playing field are part of a role play game wich you can download in Lego's website.
I don’t really have the want or the space for any big Lego dragons but I do need that Skull Sorcerer (for his hat) and every Nya variant because Nya is great.

The rock mold probably is new. It looks like it has some facets in new places maybe. I'll need to compare it to my old ones.
