Theme
Ninjago
Year Released
2022. Released alongside the finale of the Ninjago: Masters of Spinjitzu / Crystalized television series as part of the culmination of Lloyd's power arc.
Rarity
Rare. Exclusive to the theme's flagship set, 71774 Lloyd's Golden Ultra Dragon. Its value is driven by the fact that it is the ultimate 'Golden Ninja' form.
Head
Dual-sided face featuring determined focus and glowing green 'Oni' eyes. It includes a unique trans-neon green and gold molded headpiece/mask representing his pure power state.
Torso
Highly detailed gold torso (Pearl Gold) with intricate green dragon-scale printing and 'Energy' symbols. Includes gold-colored arms and hands to match the divine look.
Legs
Pearl Gold legs with sophisticated printing that continues the dragon-scale armor motif from the torso onto the hips and down the front of the legs.
Accessories
Typically equipped with four crystalline golden wings (trans-neon green/gold) attached via a back neck bracket, and a golden katana or the Dragon Sword.
Color Scheme
Dominant Pearl Gold with Trans-Neon Green accents. This represents the synthesis of the Four Elemental Powers with Lloyd's Golden Power.
Printing Details
Premium quality high-density pad printing on the front and back of the torso, as well as the front of the legs. The alignment focuses on the symmetry of the dragon scales.
Variants
This is the 'True Dragon Form'. It differs from 'Golden Lloyd' (njo073) or 'Oni Lloyd' (njo752) by combining the dual nature of his heritage into a single translucent-fused aesthetic.
Condition Notes
The dual-molded headpiece is prone to scratches if not stored properly. The Pearl Gold plastic shows stress marks easily at the arm and hip sockets if played with heavily.
Estimated Value
Used: $45 - $60 USD; New/Mint: $70 - $90 USD. Prices fluctuate based on the popularity of the Crystalized season finale.
Price (New)
Only available in set 71774, which retailed for $149.99 USD. The minifigure accounts for a significant portion of the set's aftermarket value.
Compatible Sets
71774 Lloyd's Golden Ultra Dragon (2022). This is the only official set containing this specific version of Lloyd.
Character Background
Lloyd Garmadon, the Golden Ninja and son of Garmadon. In the Crystalized season, he achieves this form to defeat the Overlord, embracing his full potential without losing his humanity.
Design Notes
Uses a unique dual-molded element for the head that blends solid gold plastic with transparent green material, a technique reserved for high-end 'powered-up' minifigures.
Similar Minifigures
Golden Oni Lloyd (njo752), Avatar Lloyd (njo570), Golden Ninja Lloyd (njo073), and the 10th Anniversary Golden Lloyd (njo634).
Collectibility
High. It is considered the definitive 'final form' of the series' main protagonist, making it a cornerstone for Ninjago character completionists.
History
Follows a long line of 'Golden' Lloyd figures starting in 2013, representing 9 years of character evolution from a child to a god-like dragon master.
Interesting Facts
This form was heavily teased in promotional material for the Crystalized season but only appeared for a limited duration on screen, increasing its mystical appeal.
Display Suggestions
Best displayed at the top center of a Ninjago collection, ideally with lighting that catches the translucent green plastic in the headgear.
Modification Potential
The wings can be swapped for various energy effects, but due to its high value, most collectors prefer to keep it in its 'purist' flagship configuration.
Overall Assessment
A masterpiece of Ninjago design. A 10/10 for detail and character significance. Must-buy for fans of the 'Legacy' or 'Crystalized' eras.
