Year Released
2015. This figure debuted during the 5th season of the Ninjago: Masters of Spinjitzu television series, appearing in major sets like Final Flight of Destiny's Bounty.
Rarity
Uncommon to Rare. While it appeared in two retail sets, it represents a very specific and popular story arc, making it highly sought after by collectors as one of the standout 'corrupted' protagonist variants.
Head
Dual-sided head printing. One side features a lime green ghostly face with glowing eyes and aggressive expression; the other features a standard determined Lloyd expression with lime green corruption details. It includes a Pearl Dark Gray wrap shell with a Lime Green face mask piece.
Torso
Dark Green torso with Pearl Dark Gray arms and black hands. Printing features a ragged, spectral lime green energy dripping down from the collar, with tattered belt and robe details representing Morro's possession of Lloyd.
Legs
Dark Green legs with dark silver (Pearl Dark Gray) printing. The design shows tattered robe edges and ghostly lime green smoke/energy effects on the knees/lower shins.
Accessories
Usually paired with a 'Ghost' neck bracket/armor piece in Pearl Dark Gray and often equipped with an Allied Armor of Azure or a ghostly Jade Blade, though none are shown in the image.
Color Scheme
A mix of Dark Green, Lime Green, and Pearl Dark Gray. The contrast between the hero's green and the ghostly neon green represents the character's internal struggle with the villain Morro.
Printing Details
High-quality pad printing with excellent color registration on the face and torso. The 'dripping' energy effect on the torso is particularly detailed, transitioning from lime green to dark green.
Variants
This is the 'corrupted' version. Standard versions of Lloyd from this era (Deepstone armor) are separate. A later 'Legacy' version exists, but this 2015 original is distinct due to the specific torso tatter pattern.
Condition Notes
Check for stress marks on the Pearl Dark Gray neck armor (if present). The wrap-around headgear can show 'clipping' wear on the neck of the torso. Lime green printing is prone to minor scratches over time.
Estimated Value
Used Complete: $25 - $35; New/Mint: $45 - $60. Prices fluctuate based on the rising popularity of the Possession season among older fans.
Price (New)
N/A (Included in sets ranging from $29.99 to $119.99). It was never sold as a standalone figure.
Compatible Sets
70736 Attack of the Morro Dragon, 70738 Final Flight of Destiny's Bounty.
Character Background
In the 'Possession' arc, the ghost Morro (the Elemental Master of Wind) possesses Lloyd Garmadon to use his power to find the Realm Crystal. This figure depicts Lloyd while under Morro's control.
Design Notes
Significant for utilizing the 'dual-mold' style mask concept being refined during the 2015 era. It is one of the more visually complex 'Possessed' figures in the line.
Similar Minifigures
Morro (njo155), Bansha (njo156), Soul Archer (njo157), and the regular Deepstone Lloyd (njo145).
Collectibility
High. The 'Evil Green Ninja' concept is a fan-favorite trope in the Ninjago community. It is a cornerstone piece for any Ninja-variant collection.
History
Possession was a turning point for Ninjago's design language, introducing darker, more detailed aesthetics. This figure remains the definitive 'Evil Lloyd' for most veteran fans.
Interesting Facts
Though Morro possesses him, the figure is officially labeled 'Lloyd' in most databases. This is the only time Lloyd appears as a 'villain' in physical LEGO form until the Garmadon-related arcs.
Display Suggestions
Display alongside the Morro Dragon or in a scene with the other ninja in their black Deepstone outfits to emphasize the corruption of the Green Ninja.
Modification Potential
The Lime Green face mask and tattered torso are popular for MOCs of ghost warriors or toxic-themed characters.
Overall Assessment
An iconic Ninjago figure from one of the theme's most beloved eras. It offers fantastic color contrast and great lore significance. A 'Buy' for any Ninjago enthusiast.
