The official images of the LEGO Ninjago Movie sets were already revealed a few days ago, and earlier today, LEGO’s Facebook page has finally lifted the veil off of its rumored direct-to-consumer set, and it’s gigantically awesome! The LEGO Ninjago Movie Ninjago City (70620) has been kept under wraps for quite some time, and now we finally know why. It is one exciting set that is full of visual imagery and colors that dwarfs any other set in comparison. In fact, as noted by Brickset, the Ninjago City is the largest LEGO set released under the Ninjago theme (by far larger than the Temple of Airjitzu 70751 and even Destiny’s Bounty 70618), and in fact, the third largest LEGO set of all time, coming in behind the Taj Mahal (10189) and Star Wars Ultimate Collector’s Millennium Falcon (10179).
Coming in at almost 5,000 pieces, the Ninjago City (70620) will retail for $299.99 and will be available starting September 1, just in time before the LEGO Ninjago Movie hits theaters on September 22. This next LEGO D2C set is also expected to be available for early VIP access sometime in August so better watch out for it. In similar news, Yahoo just recently ran an article describing the creative process behind this ‘insanely’ detailed set through the designers’ various concept arts and preliminary sketches. It’s indeed a work of art, brick art if you may, which is entirely in a league of its own. The building techniques used by the designers, and the Easter eggs that they threw in as well are all for the win. Who wouldn’t adore that minifig with the Galidor shirt?
Here’s the complete set description of the LEGO Ninjago Movie Ninjago City (70620), followed by the rest of its official images.
