LEGO NINJAGO has always been a theme we’ve liked and offers a satisfactory annual return historically of 10%, however there have been some sets offer far better rewards over time.
We have looked at some NINJAGO LEGO sets that have performed in line or above this. The pick of these is LEGO NINJAGO Ultra Stealth Raider (70595) from LEGO NINJAGO Day of the Departed.

Comparable Set Analysis
As this is a new sub-theme, there are no retired sets to use as comparators, so we have looked at the bigger sets that have retired within the general LEGO NINJAGO theme.
Again, the results here are in line with the general theme performance. LEGO NINJAGO Temple of Airjitzu is close to doubling in value in 5 years (annualised growth of 11%) from its RRP of £180 to today’s value of over £300. The other more recently retired sets have shown less growth.
Set Number | Set Name | Retired Date | RRP | Current Value | Total Growth | Annualised Growth |
70751 | Temple of Airjitzu | December 2017 | £180 | £313 | 74% | 11% |
71705 | Destiny’s Bounty | December 2021 | £125 | £133 | 6% | 4% |
70655 | Dragon Pit | December 2019 | £120 | £149 | 24% | 7% |
70677 | Land Bounty | December 2020 | £120 | £154 | 28% | 11% |
Conclusion
As a general rule LEGO NINJAGO sets are always worth investing in. In this instance we would suggest a reasonable size investment particularly if you are one of the many LEGO NINJAGO investors. While it’s a new sub theme much of the data is indeed encouraging. Wait for the big July promotions though across most retailers. NINJAGO sets to tend to have shorter life spans so any good discounts would make this a strong purchase. Invest. Buy at LEGO here now.
