Rarity
Uncommon. While not a limited-run exclusive, she only appears in a single mid-priced set, making her harder to find than the primary ninja characters.

Yellow skin tone with a female facial expression featuring thin eyebrows and pinkish-red lipstick. She wears a long blonde hair piece (part number 23187).
Torso
Dark blue torso with intricate printing of light blue lightning patterns and a silver/black belt and buckle. Black arms and grey hands represent gloves.

A trans-light blue lightning bolt piece (element 59233) held via a handle. This represents her elemental power of lightning.
Color Scheme
Primarily Dark Blue, Medium Stone Grey, and Bright Yellow, accented with trans-light blue for her elemental power.
Printing Details
High-quality pad printing on the front and back of the torso, as well as the front of the legs. The lightning motifs are crisp and align well between the torso and leg pieces.
Variants
None. This is the only official LEGO minifigure produced of the 'Master of Lightning' (Cora) following her appearance in the TV series.
Condition Notes
The lightning bolt accessory is thin plastic and prone to stress marks if bent. Common wear points include the neck joint and the hair piece's paint finish.

Character Background
Cora is the current Master of Lightning and an ally to the Ninja. She inherited her power from Jay's biological mother and first appeared in the Tournament of Elements arc.
Design Notes
Uses the 'Legacy' design style which updates older character concepts with modern printing techniques. The hair piece is a reuse of a common female hair mold in blonde.
Similar Minifigures
Jay (various versions), other Elemental Masters like Karlof (njo118), Ash (njo315), or Shade (njo314).
Collectibility
Moderately high for Ninjago completionists. Many fans aim to collect every Elemental Master ever featured in the show.
History
While the character appeared in the show in 2015, this physical minifigure was not produced until 2022, filling a long-standing gap in the Ninjago character roster.
Interesting Facts
Despite Jay being the main character associated with lightning, Cora represents the wider lore of the Elemental Masters mentioned in Season 4.
Display Suggestions
Display on a tiered stand alongside the other Elemental Masters from the Tournament of Elements to highlight the diversity of the Ninjago universe.
Modification Potential
Her parts are excellent for creating custom female superheroes or mages. The torso is highly versatile for any 'lightning-based' custom character.
Overall Assessment
A solid 8/10 for Ninjago fans. While she uses no new molds, the inclusion of a niche character from the lore is a big win for serious collectors.
