We have talked about the LEGO Ninjago summer sets as they were revealed at the various toy fairs earlier this year, however now that official images are available it is a great time to revisit them. Both of the upcoming LEGO Ninjago sets are tied in with the latest Ninjago TV show episodes, and neither of them disappoint. So let’s take a look! 🙂
➡ #70727 LEGO Ninjago X-1 Ninja Charger – I absolutely love the look of this vehicle! It is red, mean-looking and fast. And it is a 2-in-1 vehicle with a motorbike shooting out the front when Kai feels like he needs to go even faster or in tight places. What can I say? It is brilliant! Here is the official description: Kai’s X-1 Ninja Charger is an awesome 2-in-1 vehicle! Set off in hot pursuit of the Nindroids who have stolen Kai’s Techno-Blade. Aim the flick missiles at the Nindroid disc flyer and steer clear of its saw blades. Rotate the engine bay and fire the dual shooter to target the jet-packing Nindroid hovering above. Open up the hood, activate the built-in interceptor bike and accelerate to retrieve that valuable Techno-Blade! Includes 3 minifigures with weapons: Kai and 2 Nindroids. 426 pieces. Price: $39.99
➡ #70728 LEGO Ninjago Battle for Ninjago City – Another very nice set. The red, dark-green and gold used for the temple looks beautiful, and there are also some nice detail work all around, including the printed window-panes and those big gold wheels. And it looks like it also comes with a lot of play-features. Here is the official description: The huge evil OverLord has powered up and is threatening to take over New Ninjago City. Help the Ninjas to defend the Ninjago temple using its awesome array of hidden features. Plan your strategy in the control room and activate the catapult stairs to send intruding Nindroids flying. Evade laser-cannon fire from OverLord and retaliate by triggering the tower’s dual catapult and hidden disc shooter. Zoom down the zip line from the roof with Lloyd, spin the rotating walls to reveal hidden weapons, and glide into battle with Jay. Outsmart those Nindroid invaders and lock them up in the prison! Includes 8 minifigures with assorted weapons and accessories: Jay, Lloyd, Zane, Nya, OverLord and 3 Nindroids. 1223 pieces. Price: $119.99
I would say that both of these LEGO Ninjago sets are very solid and worth the price. I’m definitely getting Kai’s vehicle as I really like the look. Somehow I always liked Kai’s vehicles the most… What about you? While we are waiting for these sets to get released, you can check out the currently available LEGO Ninjago sets at the Online LEGO Shop.
So what do you think? How do you like the LEGO Ninjago summer sets? Are you planning to get either of them? Or both? Feel free to share and discuss in the comment section below! 😉

First Comment! I am gonna get the X-1 Ninja Charger, it looks awesome and I like the ‘figs and the mini bike.
I also need to replace my Kai hair. My dog chewed it 🙁
that sucks Lloyd. but I really want both of the sets and me and my sister are fighting over the battle for ninjago city set! 😡 it would go well with my LEGO ninjago fire temple. 😀
hey it looks like Zane, Lloyd, and jay have new ninja suits, hmm… how come Kai doesn’t. interesting…
Lloyd does have a new suit, and maybe Zane, but Jay has the same printings as in the Thunder Raider. It’s just that Jay (and Zane, and Lloyd, and Nya) has a silver armor piece. Although we can’t tell if the Ninja get new suits, b/c there isn’t a Cole. 😕
yeah what happened to Cole? and I did say that Lloyd has a new suit, I looked back at my old comments and they are kind of hard to understand sometimes because I got a little too excited. 😀
hey, speaking of July, I just went on amazon.com and a ninjago game is coming out on the 3ds and the PS (which I don’t know what that is.) its coming out July thirtieth! its called LEGO ninjago Nindroids! no joke! I saw it on gamestop.com too.
ooh!
PS is Playstation. But did it say which one?
PSP Vita (I wish it was for the PS3)
ooh, PlayStation, okay, cool. its too bad (and strange) that it didn’t come in Wii U version, oh well, I guess I’m getting it on the 3ds which isn’t as fun in my opinion 🙁
I couldn’t find it for the 3ds and it said July 30th.
I wish the Battle Charger had one of the new missiles, but I think it is in the nindroid vehicle
I don’t think so, there’s no room. Those missiles need a 1×4 brick space. 😉
I thought it might be on the bottom
I’ll probably get the temple when it’s on sale but mainly for parts 🙂
Yeah, the temple has some really nice colors and parts-selection. It should still be around for Christmas, so one of those holiday deals should work to get it cheaper. 🙂
You have no idea how badly I want these sets!!! I can’t wait to see it!! Does anyone know when they’ll be released?
The information I got only says this summer, so my guess is that means June or July.
I thought it would mean August. Like the SW.
The sets should be released on August 1st, from what I heard.
yeah June or July which is near my birthday! so awesome! (so then I can get them free! 😈 🙄 )
I don’t understand why you care to put up news like this. This is very old news and there’s no need to show it again when everyone has already known and seen pictures for months.
Not everyone has seen it, and I hadn’t seen the things on the white background, and I thought it was interesting.
The official set pictures were revealed last week via Amazon. Yes, we have seen the sets at the toy fairs before. Please read the first paragraph. 😉
I am really looking forward to these! I want the Battle for Ninjago City for Zane and the Overlord. I liked Zane from the Destructoid better, but I can’t get that, so I’m saving. And all the ninja and Nya have armor! Although why the set is Garmadon’s Monastery, I can’t understand. I guess it’s in the last episode. 😐
Also, why is there a red spring-loaded missile in the pic with Kai’s Charger (which looks awesome 😀 ) when there doesn’t appear to be a shooter anywhere on the set? 😕 I also note that it’s another T-blade rescuing set.
I thought it was on the bottom of the Nindroid vehicle, because it is red.
Hm, you have a point. But wouldn’t the box show it firing? They usually do that. And how would it attach? Still, you may be right. 😕
I was wondering about that, I think it would go behind the blade.
these r nice but im going for the ultra agents instead 🙂 and im surprised LEGO only made 2 summer ninjago sets since it is so popular…..
I was also very surprised that there are only two sets. Also, no more Speedorz. 😕
Uh, are you talking about Chima? But Brickset has more Speedorz sets listed… Unless you mean Spinners, I’d like more of those. 🙂
i would love to see more spinners to! they were so much fun to play and to collect! speedorz r not even close to as much fun as the spinners were 🙁
Oh, yes, sorry about that. Multitasking here. 😳
I miss the spinners, but the speedors are cool this summer. Phoenixes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I’m not that in to Chima. What’s been going on lately! Also I changed my name. My old one was KreeperKing.
I want 2 or 3 of 70728 to use for opera sets
The overlord is the golden master, if you have seen closer pics of the minifigures it looks like the golden master. I can’t decide on which one to get, I’m leaning towards the Kai set and then I’ll buy the battle for ninjago city figs so I don’t miss out
I noticed that he was the golden master, and it “scared” me:)
Yeah, I hope the overlord doesn’t destroy everything
These look pretty good! I don’t really collect Ninjago sets but I enjoy the show. I can’t wait till the new episodes come to netflix.
The battle for ninjago city, it mysteriously contains no pythor.hmmm
Hey you guys should check out http://www.paintballplayerpro.weebly.com it is a new website a =nd is pretty cool
Well, I can skip both of these for sure. The Kai race car is just stupid and the Battle of Ninjago City is nothing I haven’t seen before. The only reason everyone is going to buy it is for the Overlord. Being a Minifig Customizer, I already built a much better Overlord last year, but I guess these sets are good for really hardcore Ninjago fans or if you’re just looking for parts. Either way, the summer Chima sets are more interesting. 😀
Darkon, oh, you don’t like the race car? I really do. Anyway, I guess it is okay to have different tastes. 🙄
2 sets only?
I am 100% going to get 70728 Battle for Ninjago City set. I am thinking of getting 70727, but there’s no real need for it other than the vehicle. I already have sets 70720-70724 I am positive I’m getting 70725 for my birthday in June from my mom. She knows I love Lego even now at age 22. :3 Then after that, head to Target and buy the Destructoid.
btw, if any of you want to e-mail me, my email is “goldenmaster707@gmail.com”. Have a good day!
Hey have any of you guys played the rebooted game on the computer? It’s fun.
I have the app on my iPad, it’s fantastic 😉
My brother got the rebooted app.Which strikes me as odd considering the fact that he detests anything that has to do with Ninjago. Long story short, he’s frustrated because who can’t get past the third checkpoint.It frustrated him even more because I already finished the story mode. *Insert fangirl smile here*
Remember a while back about the decision I had to make?Well,it turns out we’re moving to take advantage of the offer.We’ve been packing all night to move.My mom said that we’re moving this summer or even as early as next week.I’ve been busy writing letters to all my friends.Wish me luck.
Wow! So you are going for it! It is nice that your family is behind you on this. Wishing you the very best on this great adventure, and give your mom a hug. 😉
Yeah.It took me a while to figure out what I wanted,but I weighed the pros and cons(thank you,Jay The Ultimate Ninja!)
and I took advice from my friends and my fellow Brick Bloggers.Oh.And I did give my mom a hug.(She thought I’d lost my mind.)Thank you guys for your help!
Oh,one last thing:

Just borrow a little kid. That’s what I do. 😉
I’ll take my brother,then.At least with him it won’t be awkward.
I will be going with my Brother and Mom probably. Me and my Brother still love Ninjago. Can’t wait till the movie.
@t the yellow ninja > LOL , Me too ! But I’m afraid to not like lego when I’ll be 16 years old……but, what I’m talking about : I will always like Ninjago ! As long as I can !!!
Yeah,same here.I mean,if they kept me for about four years,they can keep me three more.Ninjago forever and always!
