2017: Released as part of the initial wave for the theatrical film, marking a major aesthetic shift for the characters.
Rarity
Common: This figure was widely available in multiple sets and a polybag, making it one of the most accessible Nya variants.
Head
Yellow classic skin tone with dual-sided printing: one side determined/angry with furrowed brows, the other a confident smirk. Topped with a black wrap-around ninja fabric mask and separate black hair piece (not pictured) or the ninja hood part shown.
Torso
Black torso with silver quilted armor pattern, dark blue trim, and light bluish gray plating accents. Features the 'Water' elemental symbol on the back. Black arms and black hands.
Legs
Dark bluish gray legs with extensive printing of armored plates (tassets) and fabric folds in black and silver, continuing the tactical aesthetic of the movie line.
Accessories
Includes a black neck bracket with dual scabbards and two silver katanas. In some sets, she also carries a specialized spear with a tassel.
Color Scheme
Primary Black and Dark Bluish Gray with Light Blue and Silver accents, representing her transition from the Samurai X colors to her role as the Water Ninja.
Printing Details
High-quality pad printing with metallic silver ink on the torso and legs. The alignment is generally excellent, typical of 2017-era movie production standards.
Variants
Variants include njo371 (without scabbard) and njo463 (Spinning version). This specific version (njo319) is defined by the inclusion of the scabbard accessory.
Condition Notes
Prone to silver ink rubbing on the torso over time. Check for neck cracks in the torso caused by the scabbard bracket and stress marks on the hands from holding the spears.
Estimated Value
Used: $3.00 - $5.00 USD; New: $7.00 - $10.00 USD. Value is stable due to high supply from movie-era sets.
Price (New)
Available in sets ranging from $9.99 (Spinjitzu Training) to $79.99 (Destiny's Bounty Juniors), and a $3.99 polybag.
Compatible Sets
70606 Spinjitzu Training, 10738 Snowford's Ice Cream Truck (Juniors), 30428 Mini Bounty Polybag, 70629 Piranha Attack.
Character Background
Nya is the younger sister of Kai and the Elemental Master of Water. This design reflects her redesigned appearance from the 2017 film, where she is a fierce, independent warrior.
Design Notes
The movie sub-theme introduced more realistic fabric textures and 'armored' detailing compared to the clean, iconographic style of the TV show minifigures.
Similar Minifigures
Lloyd (njo312), Kai (njo311), and Jay (njo313) from the same movie line, as well as Nya's FS (Forbidden Spinjitzu) and Legacy versions.
Collectibility
Moderate: Essential for completing the Movie-era team but widely available. High demand primarily from younger fans and completionists.
History
Before 2011, Nya was a non-ninja character. This 2017 design represents the peak of her 'tactical' ninja aesthetic before moving into the more colorful 'Legacy' and 'Dragons Rising' eras.
Interesting Facts
The silver printing on the legs mimics traditional samurai 'Kusari' armor, blending historical Japanese influence with modern LEGO stylings.
Display Suggestions
Best displayed alongside the 70620 NINJAGO City modular or on a stand with the rest of the Secret Ninja Force from the film.
Modification Potential
Excellent for custom tactical ninjas; the dark gray armored legs are highly sought after for MOCs (My Own Creations) involving mercenaries or knights.
Overall Assessment
A solid, highly-detailed figure that captures the 'tactical' feel of the Ninjago Movie. While not high in monetary value, it is a high-quality example of modern LEGO printing.
