➡ #70732 LEGO NINJAGO CITY OF STIIX: This is one gorgeous set, and one of the largest one in the new LEGO Ninjago line. The main building itself is very unique, and also note the beautifully designed small ship. The set sports the dark-blue/lime-green color-scheme that characterizes this hole wave and looks really good. There is so much to see here, and so many play-features, that I really recommend you watch the video-review below.

Battle against the Scythe Master Ghoultar with Jay’s powerful Deepstone Katana. If a Ninja gets captured in the prison cage, use Nya’s crowbar to break them out. Find and open the secret entrance to the temple, but watch out for the trap door on the first floor. When you reach the top of the city, battle the Evil Green Ninja and seize the Scroll of Airjitzu!

➡ #70733 LEGO NINJAGO BLASTER BIKE: This is the smallest set in the 2015 summer LEGO Ninjago wave, but it actually looks really good with a black and gold color-scheme and two giant stud-shooters. Also notice the two Skreemers and the little brick-built dragon. Here is the official description: Fold out the rapid shooters and take down the Ghost Dragon!

➡ #70734 LEGO NINJAGO MASTER WU DRAGON: The design of Master Wu’s dragon is brilliant, especially the head, and there is also so many fun features like the attached cup-holders and tea-pot. The little cart is also very well designed and comes with a hidden disk-shooter. Make sure you watch the video-review below as the details of this set are very interesting.

➡ #70735 LEGO NINJAGO RONIN R.E.X.: The main vehicle here is basically an elaborate Airjitzu Flyer launcher that you can easily hold in one hand and swoosh around, while shooting off the flyer on top. A really well done design. My only concern is that that the airship does have a lot of small parts, and because Airjitzu is mostly an outdoors game there can be a problem of loosing the small pieces. Here is the official description: Soar into aerial battle with Ronin’s 2-in-1 R.E.X.! Take off for battle against the Ghost Ninja in Ronin’s awesome 2-in-1 R.E.X. airship!
