hello this is the lego ninjago TV series not movie series ninja Nightcrawler
featuring one of the larger single-seat minifigs scaled cars that I've seen
certainly that I've had it's a quite a lot larger actually than I even expected
from looking at the pictures I feel like most of the angles I've seen have been
kind of like this where it just looks like a very low wide kind of muscular
sporty car but as you rotate it around look behind the cockpit and in front of
the rear tires look at that length there it's just so extended to hold this whole
weapon system now that weapon system is not as simple as just a couple of six
stud shooters one on either side they have an interesting mechanism that they
proudly declare as new for 2018 show you how that works in just a second after it
finishes letting you see how the whole thing appears to be built from the
outside you can change the angles of these up and down actually kind of
changes the the look of the car a little bit more than you would expect for just
a couple small pieces and you can actually bring these all the way down if
you want almost makes it look like they've tucked in to get more speed and
then you bring them up they look like they're more for stability mount that's
just my imagination you do see some off coloured parts through there but for the
most part the color scheme is pretty consistent from the outside a lot of
studs on the side construction of course a lot of nice kind of jigsaw puzzle kind
of insertion of pieces where parts come together and they help to complement
each other in their own natural shapes such as with these flaps up here that
have the angles going in now it doesn't look quite so impressive just from here
actually a little bit kind of going with the lines of these double curved slope
pieces but I feel like from this higher angle you see even better how this nice
not only just kind of triangular shape is created here but you get kind of an X
going out to the canopy and that almost continues out to the edges of the canopy
so some really nice shaping here you know I I kind of like some stuff
they've put together I think they could have done without the lime-green going
down here though I feel like that breaks things up just a little bit more than
necessary just a purely subjective opinion but overall the build is pretty
good the thing is is heavy and sturdy I mean the you know they have real rubber
tires that are barely semi pneumatic you know you can't really squeeze these very
much but it just feels like it's grabbing the ground just lots of great
great traction this thing gets so it feels like it would it would work well
if it was a real vehicle and so as for these these shooters and how that works
you push here so this is this is a printed piece they're 2 by 2 round tile
on top and you pushed down on that and look what happens these come up it
brings the blades with it all that goes together that's pretty cool takes you
straight into an attack mode like that they come up pretty far it's not just a
small amount of movement and they come way up it changes the shape of the thing
I could definitely do without those moving pieces there that was completely
unnecessary but from this angle it doesn't look so bad but yeah you just
see how they've got a flap here I've got part of the gearing mechanism which
actually goes farther down in there that's interesting because it's
ultimately connected to the axles this starts to turn the little actuators
inside of there the little triggers and just as you drive this along it will
fire off all these studs and those studs are going all over my entire room right
now out of all the ones that I just fired off it looks like 1 2 3 4 are
still within reach I tried to put my hand just off camera in front of this
but yeah those go absolutely everywhere fortunately they give you a full
recharge of those plus a little bit so an extra dozen plus some extra spares
but yeah you know you're just driving along and push this down
just it just shoots off and they go absolutely everywhere it's it's quite
quite a thing that that happens it's kind of shocking just how much firepower
you feel coming out of this but then like saying once when once you once
you've experienced that you then have the poor experience of trying to chase
these things down all over your room but for what it is it's implemented well I
just don't know how many people will really want to use that that much of
course you can just put it down just for a brief moment you know as as you're
driving you see that gear there spinning just touch it and just a couple of those
will fire off at a time so you can regulate it just a little bit such a
large cockpit for this thing look at that just to hold one single figure I
appreciate the the tan color that they put in there the tan and the dark tan
both just helps to make it look a little bit more luxurious like you could
imagine that being padded with you know either real leather or you know fake
leather vinyl or something it just seems like the interior of a car including the
tan pieces used here which are matched well that's good you know rather than
doing unnecessary changes of color and these two clips can be used to hold on
to Lloyd's swords on either side that's good this
just has a couple of gaps underneath but they're really not that visible and
those leave enough space for the swords to fit in and there is that one
speedometer piece that's used there that's printed so I think overall this
this works pretty well it's dirty it's a good build to put together it's not
difficult to put together a lot of the color-coded stuff is very helpful and
very quickly finding pieces oh I only just saw this I'm sure they're going to
be hundreds of comments about the fact that I put that back on backwards
but hopefully folks will see part of the rest of the video as well let me go
ahead and show you the figures so we get here the new hybrid versions going to
movie slash TV hybrid versions of Lloyd and Nia Nia gets the very
large spear with a bunch of pieces put together I do want to focus a little bit
more on the figures themselves it's interesting to me that here Lloyd gets
two of the Chinese Dao style swords which is I believe a new concept you
know twin katanas was a traditional staple of of Ninjago and then for the
movie they introduced a single Dao has the kind of signature weapon for Lloyd
now here they've gone with two but without the the tassels that that add on
to the the ends of them so that's that's just something different see if they
continue on with that trend and kind of make that his new think I'm switching
between single and and double Dowell like that the NIA figure looks great to
me lots of nice printing and have to take some stuff off so you can actually
appreciate more of that printing but of course we need to see the faces as well
the base color for all of the body parts except for the head and hands for Nia is
that gunmetal gray or dark pearl gray color good print on the back there Nia's
faces are very similar though I mean one's a little bit more serious but from
a distance they don't look as as different as you would expect but I
needed to take that that cloth piece off so you could also see the print that's
just there barely visible on the hip piece there really only from an angle
like this where the the light strikes it just right you might not even notice it
half the time in reality but there's good print on the lakes there and that
goes for both characters I think there's just less detail for for Lloyd basically
on the the lower half Lloyd gets more detail on his upper half representing
the sons of Garmadon here is ultraviolet with the Oni mask of hatred on because
it matches her color scheme gotta match those colors I'm actually glad they did
that I think it works together very well it's seasoned very gray skintone showing
through there good it's for the for the body and the hips
and the the legs there need to take some stuff off again to about you see more of
the detail I also like that that shoulder armor piece with the pauldrons
and a couple of studs on the back but you can also lift this up hey she
doesn't look so evil looks uh almost kind of happy or at least satisfied with
her her status in life I don't know what she thinks about the the gray color for
her skin but seems to be okay overall no alternate face but there's a lot of
print to be seen on the back of that torso and some of it most of the time is
just hidden away by the armor piece her weapon is basically a flail there and
has a bunch of crystal style elements on it ultra violet also gets this motocross
style bike with the purple colored fairing and on the box they sure are
holding on to her signature weapon here while on the bike but reality kind of to
just be off to the side I'm glad that they have those extensions because it
does allow you to get this there's more dynamic pose then you can usually get
with lego bikes so I think that's actually cool and you can change the
angles of these they kind of look like exhausts you know suggestions of
exhausts that are just just pointed up but you could also just use them as
regular holders for the for the katana or the red katana can also use that to
hold the bike up more vertically like this but I think they're supposed to be
like this most the time if she's not holding on to the flail then the bike is
able to balance a little bit better does take careful balance but it is it is
possible I think the bike looks pretty cool just a couple little pieces added
to either side and she can use those weapons if she wants and it's nice to
get the purple color for the fairing piece and that's the ninja Nightcrawler
set much much larger car than I expected it to be thankfully makes the the price
a little bit more palatable the price part ratio is good most of the the size
I think came from needing to fit in the new shooting
function the automatic shooting while driving function which i think was a
really good idea for an action feature or kind of an augment to an action
feature at least in theory I think in practice it's a really bad idea because
those studs do just go absolutely everywhere and they are not fun to chase
down they're really really not fun to chase down but as as I mentioned you can
just kind of push down a little bit shoot a little bit let it go find the
studs you know kind of kind of moderate the the firing rate a little bit but or
all I think that each thing looks good here I'm more impressed with the the
bike as simple as it is but the bike with ultraviolet with her weapon and
everything that that just kind of looks nicer than I expected even though it's a
small kind of side thing in this set I think it really adds a lot of value here
for foreplay I can see these really fighting against
each other even though there's such a huge discrepancy in size and the middle
figure Nia I think is the best figure out of the three I think a lot of kids
will really really enjoy having this set although I think a lot of parents will
have trouble rationalizing spending that kind of money on just a car and a bike
in a set that has just three figures in it I think the set would have been just
as successful if not more successful if they had made the whole thing a bit
smaller and left out the shooting function or possibly just had a single
shooter mounted from the back in the center that you could fire off
completely manually you know shortened down the whole bike person the whole car
still would have looked very similar but I think could have been priced a bit
lower those are just my thoughts though hope that you've enjoyed this look at
the set regardless thank you for watching and I'll talk to you soon
you
