There is no doubt that the new wave of LEGO Ninjago sets are excellent, especially the #70751 LEGO Ninjago Temple of Airjitzu. (Find reviews of the sets here: LEGO Ninjago Temple of Airjitzu Review and LEGO Ninjago – 2015 Summer Sets Reviews) And you can make the sets even more exceptional by combining them. This is exactly what Eurobricks members Songwm, Cao and Alson have done; they have built an epic display including almost all of the new LEGO Ninjago sets. 🙂
The LEGO Ninjago Temple of Airjitzu’s rocky base has been expanded into a whole hilltop with more buildings and trees. I really like how a small pond was added under the bridge of the temple, with the water cascading down through a waterfall. The rockwork and other landscaping is done really well throughout this scene, and the fall colors of the foliage makes the whole layout especially picturesque.
On the other side of the diorama there is an intense battle-scene with Sensei Wu and the ninja fighting all kinds of ghostly creatures. The dragons, mechs, and other vehicles from the summer LEGO Ninjago sets are all included. And in between the serene hilltop with the temple and the battle-scene, there is a beautiful river with the #70738 LEGO Ninjago Destiny’s Bounty gliding through the water, while the #70735 LEGO Ninjago Ronin R.E.X. is flying above the river to help out in the aerial fight. See can see more pictures at Eurobricks here.
This is not the first time these talented builders created a large LEGO Ninjago diorama; they have also done it with the previous wave of LEGO Ninjago sets. Their collaborative work was on display at their local LEGO store. This diorama also features beautiful landscaping and dramatic battle-scenes. You can see more pictures at Eurobricks here.
I hope these LEGO Ninjago creations inspire you to expand your own building skills and ideas. Also, note that you don’t have to build everything yourself. If you have friends who also enjoy the LEGO hobby, you can work together on larger projects. This is a wonderful way to spend time with friends and do bigger and better things than each person could do on their own. If you are interested to create your own LEGO Ninjago scene, and you don’t have the sets already, all of the ones featured here are available at the LEGO Ninjago section of the Online LEGO Shop.
So what do you think? How do you like these LEGO Ninjago dioramas? Have you built something like this by yourself or with friends? Or are you planning to? Feel free to share your thoughts and your own creations in the comment section below! 😉

That looks sweet! Both of them! I wish I had friends who like LEGO… Unfortunately I don’t live in America where literally almost half the population love the brand… =/
Yeah, we are into LEGO over here, but not everybody. Like in my town there is no LEGO club. You can always turn other people on to the hobby. 😉
If you are near were not many people are into LEGO, than think of yourself as a missionary. 😀
LOL! Join the LEGO religion! We have fun! 😀
Came for inspiration, left with sadness that I need to buy so many bricks cause I love the temple on top of the mountain ^^
But in all seriousness, great layout.
Yeah, I know the feeling. When I see such big layouts it sorely reminds me of the smallness of my collection. But yes, it is still inspirational. 🙂
I just cleaned out an old aquarium that should be big enough for a pretty impressive diorama. I have the dojo, and the airjitzu temple already, so I’ll see where it goes from there. I’m even thinking of adding battery operated candles in the rooms, for night effects.
I have an aquarium that I’m cleaning out to put a ninjago diorama in. I’m curious how they did the first setup, with the raised base on the castle parts.
I can’t say for sure how they did that section exactly, but I do know that most LEGO fans build up raised bases using DUPLO bricks, or build a support system – kind of like skeleton style – with regular LEGO bricks. Does that help?
It does help. With the tank walls and top, I’m going to have to plan for space accordingly, so I’m hoping it will fit like I want it.
That’s a very interesting project, and I look forward to see the end result! 🙂
