LEGO boasts incredibly popular collaborations with major brands like Star Wars, Nintendo, and Harry Potter. However, their original themes have had a more mixed track record. Remember LEGO Hidden Side, the augmented reality ghost-hunting theme? Its short lifespan highlights the challenge of creating commercially successful original IP. LEGO Dreamzzz, their newest original theme, faces a similar hurdle: being visually appealing is only half the battle; lasting success requires broad public awareness and strong sales.
LEGO Ninjago, however, stands as a shining example of long-term success. Blending martial arts with LEGO's signature humor, Ninjago 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:
