Theme
Ninjago
Year Released
2015. Debuted in the January wave of Ninjago sets, released during a peak era of original Ninjago storytelling involving the Anacondrai Cultists.
Rarity
Uncommon. He appeared in three sets but is a specific named antagonist character, making him more desirable than generic cultist grunts.
Head
Yellow head with red eyes, sharp toothy smirk, and extensive purple tribal tattoos/markings on the right side of the face. He wears a Tan bone-styled helmet (part 18952) fashioned after a snake skull.
Torso
Yellow torso featuring an asymmetrical design. Front includes a dark red leather-style plate with bone spikes, purple anacondrai tattoos, and a dark red belt. The left arm is dark red with a black hand, while the right arm is yellow with a yellow hand.
Legs
Dual-molded or printed legs featuring a dark red 'loincloth' over purple pants. Detailed printing includes silver chain links and tooth-like decorative elements on the shins.
Accessories
In official sets, he often carries a bone-handled axe or a crossbow. This specific figure in the image is shown with his signature bone helmet but missing hand-held weapons.
Color Scheme
A striking mix of Yellow, Dark Red, Purple, and Tan. This palette is the signature 'Anacondrai Cultist' identifier, representing the fake tribe's attempt to look like the legendary purple snakes.
Printing Details
High-quality pad printing with high detail on the torso and legs. The purple markings are meant to represent tattoos, and the alignment of the belt from torso to waist is a key detail point.
Variants
There are no major production variants of the 'Anacondrai' Eyezor, though he is visually similar to 'Eyezorai', the transformed version of the character that appeared later in the line.
Condition Notes
Common wear points include the tip of the tan bone helmet and the friction of the arm joints. The printing on the toes is susceptible to rubbing during play. The black hand on the dark red arm is a specific part to watch for breakage.
Estimated Value
Current market value is approximately $4.00 - $7.00 USD for a used complete figure. New condition figures can reach $10.00 USD. Value is stable as a core nostalgic villain.
Price (New)
He appeared in sets ranging from the $19.99 Jungle Trap to the $69.99 Anacondrai Crusher, making him relatively accessible at retail during 2015.
Compatible Sets
70746 Condrai Copter Attack, 70752 Jungle Trap, 70754 ElectroMech.
Character Background
Eyezor is a high-ranking general in Master Chen's Anacondrai Cult. Despite having only one eye (the other covered by his markings), he is a pilot and tactician who helps lead the army against the Ninja during the Tournament of Elements.
Design Notes
The use of asymmetrical arm colors (Yellow and Dark Red) was a bold design choice that effectively communicates the 'scavenger' and 'cultist' nature of the faction. The bone helmet mold was new for this wave.
Similar Minifigures
Master Chen (njo131), Kapau (njo127), Chope (njo128), and Zugu (njo130).
Collectibility
High for Ninjago completionists. He is a primary lieutenant character, and the 2015 Tournament of Elements wave is considered a 'Golden Era' for Ninjago collectors.
History
Eyezor's release marked the transition of Ninjago from a rebooted series into a long-term mainstay, introducing more complex faction-based printing and unique headgear molds.
Interesting Facts
Despite his name, the minifigure actually has two eyes printed on the head; the 'one-eyed' look is created by the purple face paint/tattoos surrounding the right eye.
Display Suggestions
Best displayed alongside Master Chen and a squad of Anacondrai Cultists. A jungle-themed baseplate or an arena setting from the Tournament of Elements fits perfectly.
Modification Potential
The tan skull helmet is highly prized by MOC builders for creating custom post-apocalyptic or tribal warriors. The purple and red legs are frequently used for custom fantasy villains.
Overall Assessment
Eyezor is a standout villain from a classic Ninjago era. With a unique 10/10 printing design and an iconic molded helmet, he is a must-have for fans of the 'Masters of Spinjitzu' series.
