LEGO NINJAGO Source Dragon of Motion Ninja Playset 71822

I already had some experience with how cool a big Ninjago set could be thanks to Cole's Titan Dragon Mech, but this set was something else. I really like the huge size and use of special pieces, and the design is also incredible. I hope Lego can do more sets like this and the Titan Mechs in the future!

My son as Autism and he Loves to Build this set is HUGEE! HE LOVES IT .

Any time my son wants to use this Dragon if shatters. It’s not even stable enough to transport from room to room. Despite looking excellent, it is nearly useless due to extreme fragility.

I love dragons and this is by far the best dragon made yet

It was a great built except an I loved them adventure It took me on. Except,when adding the carriage to the dragon it self I wish the block attachment was a bit bigger then 2 dots.

Santa brought this to my son for Christmas , he had been requesting it for months in advance and was so excited.. the build was great we spent three days building , he is ninjago obsessed and has collected lots of pieces . He was so keen to play with it but we quickly learnt it is not for playing the body is constantly breaking , I’ve remade it so many times now and he is so disappointed after all that excitement. I understand Lego is for display a lot but what about the kids that actually want to play with it ?

Love, love, love Legos! They are so much fun to build.

If you are building this to play with, what my son did. You will be disappointed. The chest area (with the front legs) will break constantly with in hrs of building.

When my son carefully followed the instructions and moved the wing into place, the entire dragon shattered. Breaks very easily so not useful for play.

This was a fun build, and a really cool Lego Dragon and my son loves it. However, the head is so heavy it falls off at the neck connection constantly, even when not being actively played with, just moving it from one spot to another. The legs and feet also fall off regularly with light play. It can't be played with as it should be, or you will spend half the time just putting the head back on.

Building the Source Dragon of Motion was totally worth it once it transformed into a majestic beast. This dragon didn’t just sit pretty; it moved. I unleashed it in a glorious battle against the Lion Knight’s castle, where it promptly dismantled their defenses and probably their pride. The knights were no match for its flappy wings, rotating head, and my questionable strategy of screaming 'DRAGON YEET!' every time it attacked. 10/10, would terrify plastic knights again!

My son saved up his pocket money to purchase this set, he is a very big Ninjago fan and wanted to add this Dragon to his collection. He managed to to build it himself and is very impressive when complete, the only downside is that because it’s a very big piece the wings and legs are quite light in comparison and the dragon can not always stand up that well without falling over which than can make the piece break.

So excited to finally save up to get this amazing build for myself. It's beautiful.

I really admire the cool dragon, which had a really intricate design and good price per piece ratio.However the mini figure selection in this set was a little disappointing, as this would’ve been a great time to make mini figures like Lloyd or Nya easier to find,and maybe could have included some extra elemental masters or even a little monastery side build

I think it was amazing. I would give it at least a 4.5 out of five.

This is an epic set, great price, nice minifigs and amazing build, maybe if the shadow-throne wasn't included, it would have been cheaper, but it's all good, since it looks amazing

First, I'm a certified idiot, third, this is my new "pet", seventh, this intermediate build was awsome, second, I only built the dragon, wolf head (replaced the red with silver and modified it a little further for a necklace/pendant) and the gong and turned that into a pendant with flame accents and used 4 gold teeth into the chains; fits comfortably too). And I added a flame constructed piece to the mouth and it looks like it belongs there (1 2X2 translucent orange inverted parabolic dish and one technic flame of your choice to add on the end of a 1X1 translucent orange cone, the whole construction can be taken in and out with ease (and 6 other mystery pieces, 9 pieces total. P.S. and since the title is, that... I'll save you the response and effort... "Cool story bruh..." alright, I'm goodnight.

This Dragon is a beautiful design and colorway, beefy, just plain LARGE! The Piece count for the value overall is fantastic, and it's a great build experience. All of that said, I would like to have seen just a few other things from such a high part count. I would have been happier with a slightly smaller dragon if the Head and claws were brick built rather that the molded head pieces we see in many of the recent dragon releases. Claws, too, could have more parts that make them unique. Individual scales would also have been a step above. It all feels like a missed opportunity with a part count that high. With only six minifigs, it felt lacking -- One more hero fig might have been nice. As other reviews have stated, for a set called the Source Dragon of "Motion," it doesn't have the range of motion one would expect. Also, due to its size and weight, its static poses are limited just to keep it stable. Overall, I appreciate the challenge of balancing size, stability, and motion, and think the design team did a beautiful job! The addition of the throne makes it an impressive, eye-catching display, and I like that the throne is easily removable. It's a gorgeous Dragon on its own. Highly recommend!

I've build about most of all Ninjago dragon sets. The largest ones can have trouble standing with the weight, but not this one. Although nothing in the build was out of the ordinary the front legs were built perfect to withstand the weight of this dragon. It's probably the largest Ninjago dragon build ever produced. Wings are on point and the whole build flowed very easily. Highly recommend.

My son loves Lego Ninjago and LOVED building the dragon to add to his other Ninjago Lego builds. He's not quite 12 years old, but he took his time, and followed all the directions. He thought it was really cool that there were lots of instruction books.
