Year Released
2015. Debut in the Ninjago Season 5 wave during a peak in the theme's popularity.
Rarity
Common. Appeared in one substantial retail set and was heavily mass-produced during the Possession wave.
Head
Bright green ghost face with glowing eyes and angry expression, covered by a Dark Navy wrap and Purple headband piece.
Torso
Purple torso with dark navy arms and purple hands. Printing features a torn ninja robe with a white sash and ghost-energy 'slashes'.
Legs
Lower body is a trans-neon green and purple swirling ghost 'cloud' or tail piece (Part 19859pb01) rather than standard legs.
Accessories
Standard figure includes a katana or ghost-blade (not pictured). The wrap (Part 19847) is the primary wearable accessory.
Color Scheme
Primary Colors: Purple and Dark Navy. Accent Colors: Trans-Neon Green and White.
Printing Details
High-quality pad printing on torso (front and back) and head. The tail features a complex dual-molded plastic technique.
Variants
This specific printing is shared between characters Ming and Attila; differs from more detailed generals like Wrayth or Ghoultar.
Condition Notes
Main wear points are the neck of the ghost-tail piece and the friction on the dark navy head wrap. Susceptible to torso cracks.
Estimated Value
Used: $3.00 - $5.00 USD. New: $7.00 - $10.00 USD. Low value due to high availability and being a generic 'grunt' figure.
Price (New)
Included in set 70735 (Ronin REX) which retailed for $49.99 USD in 2015.
Compatible Sets
70735 Ronin R.E.X. and occasionally found in Ninjago Target-exclusive gift sets or activity books.
Character Background
A generic soldier in the Cursed Army serving Morro. They were citizens of the Cursed Realm released to haunt Ninjago.
Design Notes
First introduction of the 'ghost tail' mold, which revolutionized non-humanoid lower body parts in the Ninjago line.
Similar Minifigures
njo151 (Ghost Ninja Hackler), njo153 (Ghoultar), njo146 (Morro).
Collectibility
Moderate for completionists of the Season 5 line. High army-building potential but low individual investment value.
History
Represents the transition of Ninjago into more supernatural/horror-themed seasons, moving away from snakes and robots.
Interesting Facts
The ghost tail piece was so successful it was later reused for characters in the Nexo Knights and Hidden Side themes.
Display Suggestions
Best displayed on a transparent stand to simulate hovering or mixed with other 2015 Ghost Ninjas for a 'horde' look.
Modification Potential
Excellent for fantasy MOCs; the lower tail piece is highly sought after for creating custom spirits or specters.
Overall Assessment
A solid, well-designed figure that perfectly captures the aesthetic of the Possession era. Good for play but common for collectors.
