Polybag

just like Kendo Cole packaging, the front shows the Jay ZX, the weapons, cards and the parts to upgrade your spinner, also a small window to see the content inside. The back shows some spinner sets, a lot of words and also picture of Jay ZX  on the top right.

Content

We get a card which is nicely packed, an instruction sheet which is folded and a bag of bricks.

Accessories

We get a katana and some two weapons which is brick-built and again I do not know their name. (^^)

Minifigs

Jay ZX is a nice minifig, the back of his torso is printed and the new ninja headgear can be placed around the floor perfectly. The new shoulder pad is nice too, it can hold two katana if not mistaken.

Spinners part

There are a three new parts here (maybe since I'm not collecting Hero Factory) and some part to make your spinner higher and the parts that act as barrier to protect your minifigs.

Cards

Five card were given and three of them seems to have different effect in all three booster pack. While the other two have about the same functions. A holo card is included too.

Extra piece

There is one spare part given here to replace it if yours went missing. Use it when in emergency.

Completed model

I would probably said the same as the one I did in Kendo Cole. Recommended for minifigs collector. Not too expensive and in affordable range.

Playability: -

Building experience: -

Parts: 8/10 It has the same amount of parts with Kendo Cole and is the maximum parts count for now.

Value for money: 9/10 This thing is definitely worth RM20.

Overall: 8/10 A very nice minifigs and cards too.

Polybag

It's been more than a month now since my last review. Being so busy lately and now I'm back with a light review which is LEGO Ninjago #9551 Kendo Cole. The polybag is bigger than minifigures series packaging and the fron shows us the weapons, cards, parts to upgrade your spinner and Cole. There is a small transparent window in front, so you can choose the best printed minifigs. The back are some advertisement for spinner set.

Content

Inside the polybag is a bag of parts, a pack of cards and an instruction sheet. There are some advertisement for the spinners in the instruction sheet and some guide at the back.

Accessories

I like the new weapon part (the one in the middle) but I do not know what it is called. Anyway the accessories looks good.

Minifigs

Kendo Cole have the old ninja outfit but the back of his torso have no print. The one I got his head print is a bit faded but I do not mind since the price is quite low. The new kendo headgear looks good and you guys should grab a few if you were to build some Japanese kendo dojo.

Spinners part

Here are some part for you to upgrade your spinner. I think it might affect the match as there are parts added beside the minifigs. So it might be some shield for a moment.

Cards

I'm quite surprise to find a foil / shining card inside the pack of cards and each of them have one. The holo card has more or less the same function.

Extra pieces

There are two extra pieces left after you put everything together.

Completed model

The good news is that none of the part are made in China, so I suppose it has good quality. However, the parts are useless if you do not own any spinner while the cards is useless when you got no one to play with. but overall a nice minifigs, worth collecting as it is cheap here compare to our neighboring country.

Playability: -

Building experience: -

Parts: 8/10 Is not any rare parts in there nor rare color parts, but it has the maximum parts.

Value for money: 8/10 Definitely is worth the value.

Overall: 8/10 Just grab it rather since other seller will sell them at high price as well.
