Rarity
Uncommon: This specific variant was exclusive to a single set (70631), though Lloyd figures in general are common, this specific black-suit version is less so.
Head
Yellow head with green eyes (specific to the movie era) and determined expression. The head is partially covered by a wrap-around green mask.
Torso
Black torso with green and dark green gi-style printing, featuring silver lining and a green belt. Includes back printing of the ninja crest.
Legs
Plain black legs without printing, consistent with this specific variant from set 70631.
Accessories
The figure pictured is missing its original accessories, which typically included a silver katanas and a specialized tassel piece.
Color Scheme
Primary Black with Bright Green accents, representing Lloyd's 'Green Ninja' identity hidden within his stealth gear.
Printing Details
High-quality pad printing on the torso with fine lines depicting fabric folds and ninja hardware. Head printing is crisp with movie-accurate green pupils.
Variants
Standard Lloyd (njo312) has printed legs and a green torso; this variant (njo365) features the black 'under-suit' torso and plain black legs.
Condition Notes
Common wear points include neck cracking on the black torso and paint rub on the green mask's 'metal' detail. The item in the image appears to have some minor dust and torso wear.
Estimated Value
Used: $4.00 - $6.00 USD | New/Mint: $8.00 - $10.00 USD. Low individual value as it is a modern mass-market figure.
Price (New)

Character Background
Lloyd Garmadon, the Green Ninja and Master of Energy. In the movie, he deals with the conflict of being the son of the villainous Lord Garmadon.
Design Notes
Introduced the 'Green Eyes' design for Lloyd which became standard for the character thereafter. The mask is a two-part mold standard for the movie line.
Similar Minifigures
njo312 (Lloyd Movie Outfit), njo373 (Lloyd - Spinjitzu Training), and colnjo02 (Lloyd Garmadon - CMF Series).
Collectibility
Moderate: Essential for Ninjago Movie completionists, but high production numbers keep it from being a high-value investment piece.
History
Represents the 2017 reboot of character designs to match the silver screen versions, moving away from the 'classic' 2011-2016 Ninjago aesthetics.
Interesting Facts
The 'movie' style faces were so well-received that LEGO permanently changed Lloyd's character design in the TV series to match this figure starting in Season 8 (Sons of Garmadon).
Display Suggestions
Display alongside other 'Movie' ninjas or inside a 70620 Ninjago City modular build for a bustling urban look.
Modification Potential
Excellent for MOCs (My Own Creations) requiring stealthy ninja torsos or tactical black gear due to the neutral black arms and legs.
Overall Assessment
A solid, movie-accurate figure that highlights the peak of Ninjago's design evolution in the 2010s. Rated 7/10 for design, but lower for rarity.
