" This is like the best lego set of all time! It is totaly worth the ca$h! It has the awesomest minifigs and parts of all time! Now on to to the review. Minfigs are first up!

JAY: He has a cool blue outfit. His weapons are cool , specialy the nunchucks. His face isnt very detailed. He should have come with hair and a spinner so he could attack the bike.

CHOPOV: My first skeleton. His armor is cool and the hat is a nice touch. His ax is very neat. Coolest printing ever.

Now on to the set!
MOTORBIKE: SOOOO COOOOOOL! It has the cool smashing skul! Lots of rare elements . Rides very far with a single push. Many skull elements and "dangerous" elements. Here's the best part: Pull back the gear shift and..... SMASH!!!!!!

Overall , this is one of the best sets lego has ever released. So worth it! Recommend? YES! Thanks for reading my review , please read my others , GOD BLESS! "

" Title says it! The pictures are wrong on this set. DEAD wrong. But only on the Skeleton minifigure. This set has Chopov in it. He has GREY armor, and a combat helmet! Not RED armor, and bald! So you get more than what the picture shows. Anyway, I guess since I started with the minifigures I might as well keep going with it.
Chopov also has a new bone piece with a bronze axe head on the end. This axe head is a new piece! The clipper on it is thicker than previouse models of it! Thus, it won't break as easily.
His armor is good, and his face is very detailed.

Jay: Jay is awsome! He has a GOOD blue color, and his medal on his ninja suite is a brozish goldish. His body and legs are very detailed, but as his face is mostly colored by a mask, Lego didn't put much effort into a mouth for him. Rather, his eyes and brows are very detailed. (can't blame 'em, it's hidden most of the time!) Jay has a new black katana, as it has a different hand guard.
Now for the coolest part of the set: The nunchucks of lightning!
They are amazing! Two handles and a small chain, all in gold, and they work so well! I'll put them in Jay's hand, then set up a skeleton and swing it at him and BAM! It knocks him over! (SEE VIDEO) I seriously like them. Plus, they are colectable and this set is a good price for them.

The motorbike itself was good, and has an interesting whacking feature. Wired. But kinda cool. Two stickers on the sides, but that's okay. It's a little to big in the back and to small in the front, but it's not that bad. The tires are rubber, and, though it doesn't really look like it on the outside, while building this set you'll find it is worth the fifteen dollars you paid for! And I'm sure you'll be building it, because by the time your done reading this you'll really want one. :p lol. Anyway, the interesting thing was that the bikes exahst pipes were STRAIGHT back! I didn't like that, and I wanted them titled upwards. So I swapped with the tilted ones in the Ice Dragon set! (Read my review for the Ice Dragon!) and both of them are now better. (see picture.)

I suppose that's all, thanks for reading and I really suggest you buy this!

!!!!!!!GOD BLESS!!!!!!! "

" To cut straight to the point, the only reason I bought this set was to pick up Jay, and hence, complete my ninja minifigure collection. This just so happened to be the cheapest set in which to get him.

I'm still struggling to get my head around this theme - I love ninja's but the idea of them fighting some supernatural force in skeletons baffles me. Would have much preferred a more traditional setting, like ninja's Vs. samurai, but then that's just me.

The set itself in terms of design and build is actually quite good, and the overall finished product is quite pleasing aesthetically. It also has a very nice "hammer" function at the front which Chopov can use to guard against any surprise attack. It's quite a quick build - about 15 minutes and generally straightforward with only 2 stickers!

The only problem I had with the motorbike is the difference in size between the 2 wheels - the front wheel (it's actually 2 wheels side by side) is too small and so it does look a little strange, but this is only a minor issue.

Most of you probably won't be too disappointed with this set, but since I'm not collecting the "dark side" of the NInjago theme, I'm not really sure what to do with it since it seems out of place with the rest of my Lego collection. For those of you who are really into this theme though, this is a set that you would enjoy. "

" Jay runs after the Skull Motorbike as the mean skeleton Chopov drives way cackling with the Nunchuks of Lightening clenched in his boney fists. Will Jay have the strength and determination to defeat the evil skeleton? Only YOU can decide!

Good day once again my ninjas, it is I, your esteemed Sensei ArtemisFowlGeek and I have for you today the legendary review for the Skull Motorbike! Enjoy:

PROS:
Minifigures-Chopov is such a cool skeleton, on the web image, it shows him without a helmet, but in the set, he comes with one! DO NOT BE DECEIVED! Jay is also very cool, I like his elemental colour and detail on his torso and face.
Nunchuks-WOW. These are so cool I could cry *sob*.
Motorbike-The function is brill. You can squash Jay by flicking the lever and the skull on the front flicks down to the floor, causing Jay or any other minifigure to get squashed! The flames on the back are good and there is relevant space for Chopov to stand.

CONS
Motorbike-Why LEGO, is this a motorbike? I'm no historian on Ancient Japan, but I'm pretty sure they didn't have motorbikes in them days. Also, there is nowhere to put Chopov's axe or the Nunchuks.

To conclude, I'd like to add that this set is VERY good. A good starter to your Ninjago collection for children and collectors alike! Oh, and LEGO, WELL DONE!
AS MY GOOD FRIEND JAY WOULD SAY: "TORNADO OF CREATION!!"
KEEP BUILDING NINJAS! "

I would recommend this to a friend!
