At Amazon.com now, if anyone doesn't yet have this set, this is a really good price.

@LegoFanTexas, I thought you were renamed @despicableyou :-)) Yeah its really good deal, now if only I had snagged that Ultrasonic raider when it was apparently at 53$ something. *sigh*

Saw that and passed. That set has been discounted forever now and I'm no longer a bull on Ninjago. At 50% sure, but who knows what's going to happen now when Lego's efforts are behind Chima.

@EKSam I think the Ultrasonic Raider is still at $54 at some Walmarts. It's $59.13 right now at Amazon.
@LegoFanTexas thanks, I pulled the trigger. I think my son would enjoy this for Christmas. Not really into buying Ninjago sets anymore but I've always liked the looks of this one.
My son totally wants Chima sets now, sigh... The Gorilla striker and Lion Chi temple are at the top of his wish list. I would really like to just stick with Star Wars but when Lego comes out with these giant awesome sets it's like being in a candy store, who can resist?

@margot the nearest Walmart is 16miles away and calls itself the neighborhood market:-) I bought mine thru Amazon just yesterday and got the Epic Dragon from Fred Meyer a few weeks back. Like your son, my daughter is all about Chima these days but she loves her Ninjago too. Need to find a good deal on the Samurai Mech.:-)

@LegoFanTexas Thanks for the heads up, this will make my son really happy this Christmas.

@EKSam -- Have seen Samurai Mech at Walmart for $20 & $30 this week.

@gmpirate
For 20$? Where did you see it?:-) It will be great to find one at $20. :-)

darktremere

@gmpirate----You're one of the lucky ones. My Walmart hasn't marked that one down, the only Ninjago set I've found on clearance was #70504 Garmatron. I wish I could fine the Samurai Mech for $20, my daughter wants that one.

gmpirate

It's not a common find at $20. Actually, a lot of what is posted here is not. 25% - 33% is what should be expected on the sets mentioned here. From what I gather, 50% is what you might find at a smaller, beat-up, off-the-beaten path Walmart.

You're welcome. :)

This is by far the best dragon in the Ninjago line, IMHO... It is sturdy and whooshable, it has a nice handle for flying it around the room and the wings flap, a nice improvement over the first generation dragons.

Plus, it has 4 heads, how can you go wrong with a 4 headed dragon? :)

This was my son's top wish last year for Christmas.
I have to agree, it was a very nice set and a very cool dragon.
