LEGO NINJAGO The Guardian Dragon Building Set 71847

nice set, box had a tear but I will build it anyway

The Guardian Dragon quickly became one of my favorite display sets I've built. From the first few bags to the final wing assembly, it was an incredibly fun and rewarding build. The level of detail is outstanding, especially the scenic base with the water and hidden storytelling elements that bring the entire display to life. Every section feels thoughtfully designed. The dragon itself is the highlight. The cloth wings are absolutely gorgeous and give the model a premium look that photographs well but looks even better in person. Once attached, they completely transform the set into a true centerpiece. I was also surprised by how sturdy the finished model is. Despite its size and impressive wingspan, it feels solid and secure when moving it around. I've already displayed it in several places around my house because it looks great from every angle. This set is equally fun to build and satisfying to display long after the build is finished. Whether you're a NINJAGO fan or simply looking for a unique display model, I highly recommend The Guardian Dragon. A beautiful build, a stunning display piece, and one I'll be proudly showcasing for a long time.

But when I saw this set I thought it looked incredible. Now that I have it in hand, I can say that it holds up. Beautiful cloth wings add to the very impressive dragon, and all the little details along the bottom and the intricate figure really add to the display value.

Big build, I really enjoyed putting it together. Your gonna need a big enough shelf to display it though. It's worth the money.

Great set

Great set overall, beautiful design and articulation.

Bag number 9 missing out of our box. Called Lego directly, now we wait 14 days.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] There’s no sound, which I expected from a LEGO set, and I like that the build experience is quiet and relaxing. The pieces feel strong and secure once built. I don’t worry about it falling apart. Everything was packed neatly, and the instructions were clear and easy to follow. I think it’s worth the price for the level of detail and how great it looks on display.

Unfortunately this was supplied missing two large and significant pieces. It was a Christmas present and Lego can send a replacement after ten working days. This means it is sat waiting half built until late January. If you charge a premium price, you need much better quality control.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This set is absolutely amazing!!! It is huge! I have just wrapped it up to gift to my little boy for his birthday tomorrow, he’ll be 11 and this is the perfect level for him to give him a bit of a challenge! I wish I could show you what it looks like built but I imagine it’ll take a few weeks! The comfort of Lego is always fine for us, no sore fingers and we love the block remover to quickly pop off an incorrect block. The detailing is out of this world!! I cannot wait to see the detail in real life and which parts do what when built! The maintenance of all our Lego is absolutely fine, we keep them stored on a shelf up high, out of the way of little fingers but displayed so everyone can see and enjoy them. This is one of the best things we’ve ever been given to test and are so so grateful! My little boy is going to be over the moon tomorrow on his birthday! Thank you Influenster and thank you Lego! Xx

This looks like a cool set. My kids grew up watching Ninjago so this set was a cool idea for a Christmas present. Except, NOPE! LEGO for the fourth time this year just for me had important missing pieces in bag 1. This time 4 of them. And now we wait 12-15 days for pieces until we can start again. This happened on the UCS Razor Crest, the Dark Falcon, and Soundwave. This is getting ridiculous. Lego prices have shot up to the moon and their service has gone to the basement. Too bad, used to be a fun hobby with my kids but now it’s mostly frustrating. Thanks for helping to ruin Christmas LEGO.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Absolutely amazing set of Lego. Opened but unfinished as it's teamwork between my kids. Great size Lego and good detail to attention. Very sturdy colourful pieces. Clear instructions too and I have loved the teamwork used to finish the Lego model.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Absolutely beautiful vibrate piece but id definitely say this is for a adult who collects legos because they is very limited movement to the dragon once built so not very good for a child to play with. Once built the dragon is very sturdy and solid expecially for its size as it is really big , the detail is fantastic but i was a little bit disappointed they isnt as much detail on the back of the dragon as they is on the front. It took afew good days and hours to build this as they is some small fiddly parts to it but the instructions are really easy to follow. Has a adult i did really enjoy building this and found it so therapeutic.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Lego set the guardian dragon is so cool and my kids were so excited to receive it and build. I like the instruction booklet which clearly shows each step of building it and it’s easy to follow it. Each packet is with number so it’s easy to finish one part and then do another one. During the building children noticed 2 parts are missing and nowhere to be found in other packets too. It was opened as brand new Lego so I don’t think we lost it because we build in same place every day and did not move around. I like that almost all parts are moving (head, mouth is opening, can adjust the tail and move it any way, the claws and nails are also moving). There is a tree and Japanese style lamps on it and dragon can put his tail on this tree. My kids were very excited when they found out dragon can do it. The best part is the dragons wings and the way you need to build it so fun. I highly recommend this set, such a great idea for gift and for those who love dragon character.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] One of the best Lego i ever had! Its took me 6 h to do it but it worth all my time. It’s easy to assemble if you fallow each step properly and don’t miss any of it. It is little bit heavy and wide in the same time. It is a strong Lego but in the same time need to be careful as it will destroy and will be hard to put each piece back. It is fascinating me and is worth all the money. I’m happy to recommend it and definitely look forward for something similar. It has 1650 pieces I think but all the time I’ve spend it was a pleasure.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It looks impressive! I can't wait for the kids to find it as a Christmas present and for us to spend time as a family assembling this wonderful dragon figure! The assembly is very easy, step by step is described in the instructions. the size is impressive and quite large . SW blocks are for children over 14 years of age, so it's great that the age is described for safety reasons due to the small pieces of blocks. Amazing ! We love Lego !

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] “The Guardian Dragon” from the Ninjago series, recommended by 14+ people but for fans, is also feasible for a 10-year-old boy. Consisting of 1650 and a mini figure. The final result is very nice. As a gift it makes a great impression.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My son absolutely loves it the details are great the assembly was time consuming but loved building he lives lego and does them alot gunba look brilliant on his shelf

The set is excellent and fun to build for a Ninjago fan
