LEGO boasts incredibly popular collaborations with major brands like Star Wars, Nintendo, and Harry Potter. However, their original themes often have a more inconsistent track record. Remember LEGO Hidden Side, the augmented reality ghost-hunting theme? Its short lifespan highlights the challenges of creating commercially successful original IP. LEGO Dreamzzz, their newest original theme, faces the same hurdle: it needs to be not only visually appealing but also a market success.
But one LEGO brand consistently avoids this problem: LEGO Ninjago. This blend of martial arts and LEGO's signature humor has thrived for nearly 15 years, spawning two successful TV shows, a movie, video games, theme park attractions, and over 500 LEGO sets.
Here are some of the best LEGO Ninjago sets available in 2025:
