Rarity
Uncommon; while not a limited exclusive, it appeared in only two specialized sets from a shorter transitionary season.
Head
Yellow head with dual-sided printing: one side determined and the other angry with glowing green eyes. It features a Tan messy hair piece combined with a Black wrap-around bandana mask/cowl.
Torso
Dark Green torso with intricate tactical printing including a brown leather strap, silver buckles, a gold 'X' emblem, and dark teal camouflage-style textures. Black arms and hands.
Legs
Dark Green legs with printing that continues the belt and tactical pouch theme from the torso, featuring brown boots and grey cloth wrappings at the knees.
Accessories
Include a Pearl Gold katana and a specialized brown scabbard/shoulder strap piece. In the image, it is displayed on a standard black 3x4 CMF-style stand.
Color Scheme
Primary Dark Green and Black with Tan, Pearl Gold, and Brown accents to match the jungle/island survival aesthetic.
Printing Details
High-quality pad printing on the front and back of the torso and the front of the legs. Note the continuity of the sash and belt across the hip assembly.
Variants
Standard Island Lloyd vs. the 'Legacy' iterations or the later 'Seabound' version. This version is specific to the Island outfits with the hair-mask combo.
Condition Notes
Watch for paint rubbing on the gold katana and hair piece. The neck attachment for the bandana can sometimes cause stress on the torso's neck stud.
Estimated Value
$4.00 - $6.00 USD used; $8.00 - $10.00 USD new/sealed condition.
Price (New)
Available in sets ranging from $20.00 to $50.00 retail in 2021.
Compatible Sets

Character Background
Lloyd Garmadon, the Master of Energy and leader of the Ninja, wearing tactical gear to explore an uncharted island to rescue Master Wu and Misako.
Design Notes
Features the unique molded hair/headgear combo introduced during the 'Forbidden Spinjitzu' era but refined for the Island sub-theme.
Similar Minifigures
njo636 Island Kai, njo638 Island Zane, njo637 Island Jay, and njo653 Jungle Robe Lloyd.
Collectibility
Moderate; popular for Ninjago completionists due to the unique 'The Island' outfit which is stylistically different from standard Gi.
History
Represents the 14th major design evolution of Lloyd, moving from his movie-inspired 2017 look into a more rugged survival aesthetic.
Interesting Facts
The 'Island' wave was technically a miniseries/prologue to the larger 'Seabound' season, making these specific outfits relatively short-lived in the show.
Display Suggestions
Best displayed with the Jungle Dragon or in a tropical MOC using bright green vegetation to highlight the dark green suit.
Modification Potential
The hair-headgear piece is highly sought after for custom Post-Apocalyptic or Ninja MOCs using other torso colors.
Overall Assessment
A solid, highly-detailed minifigure that perfectly captures the survivalist theme of the 2021 wave. Great value-for-money for Ninjago fans.
