Cardboard

Two green snake were printed on the both corner at the top of the cardboard. You can see the spinner, crown, weapons, minifig and one of the card that you received from this set. The back of the card advertise some other spinners set and the customization of your spinner and there are parts from China.

 

Content

The set comes with three sheets of paper which one of them comes in multi-language which you can see on the left side of the instruction sheet, spinner, crown, cards and a bag of bricks. No instructions given on how to assemble your spinners and weapon as they are not complicated and can be build by looking at the box art.

Accessories

A scythe, a katana and a golden weapon that needs to comes with all of spinner set. No idea what is that golden weapon to be called since is a combination of chain, shuriken and knife.

Minifig

My only concern when buy the spinner is the prints on the hip of the minifigs. The just cannot merge properly with the torso prints and most of the time there are gap in between the prints on the torso and hip. The best part of NRG is that the prints are shinny when reflected to light. NRG Zane is a nice minifigs with printed legs and torso on the both side.

Spinner and Crown

NRG Zane comes with a translucent dark blue spinner and a printed transparent crown with prints on it. The crown are different with the other two NRG that I owned. Lesser stud on top.

Some additional parts to upgrade the spinner. You get transparent parts for NRG Zane, which symbolize ice. Pretty matching and close to ice.

Cards

Here are the cards that you will get fromNRG Zane spinners, I think is same for all the of his spinners. The shiny one are Snowblind card.

Extra pieces

Since there are this two small parts that comes with the spinner we have some extra parts left.

Completed model

The NRG are only available in the spinners and this is a good one too. Price wise is very reasonable and I can said it was very very fair here. This is the max I would pay for the spinner set and not more.
