Theme
Ninjago
Year Released
2018; released alongside the Season 9: Hunted wave of the Ninjago: Masters of Spinjitzu TV series.
Rarity
Uncommon; while appearing in a large set, this version of Lloyd is specific to the Hunted wave and is highly sought after for its detailed post-apocalyptic aesthetic.
Head
Yellow skin with green eyes and a determined expression (dual-sided with a focused/battle-ready face). It features a tan hairpiece that fits through the black specialized hood/mask piece which covers the lower face.
Torso
Dark green with detailed printing of a leather strap harness, a golden emblem, and silver chainmail accents over a torn ninja gi. The arms are green with black hands representing gloves.
Legs
Dark green with high-detail printing across the hips and front of the legs. The design features brown belts, silver plates, and black boots (dual-molding/printing effect).
Accessories
Includes a gold katana (sword) and a specialized gold dragon-hilt blade or scythe. A dual-sided scabbard is often included in the sets to hold swords on the back.
Color Scheme
A mix of Dark Green, Black, and Tan (Sandy Blonde hair), accented with Pearl Gold weaponry and Metallic Silver printing.
Printing Details
Extremely high level of detail, including pad printing on the torso front and back, and extensive leg printing that wraps slightly around the front. Notable for the rugged, weathered look typical of the Hunted sub-theme.
Variants
Other Hunted-era Lloyds exist without the hair-through-hood piece; this specific variant is identified by the tactical armor and the specific hair/hood combination.
Condition Notes
The tan hair piece and black hood can sometimes suffer from loose clutch power over time. Check for silver paint rubbing on the torso and leg armor plates.
Estimated Value
The used market value ranges from $8.00 to $15.00 USD, while new condition figures can reach $20.00+ depending on the presence of all original gold accessories.
Price (New)
Originally available in sets ranging from $20 (polybags/small sets) to the $130 Firstbourne set. The 'value' of the figure was roughly $4–$5 at retail launch.
Compatible Sets
70653 Firstbourne, 70655 Dragon Pit, and 30531 Sons of Garmadon (limited polybag variation).
Character Background
Lloyd Garmadon, the Green Ninja, during the resistance against Lord Garmadon and the Sons of Garmadon while the other Ninja were stranded in the Realm of Oni and Dragons.
Design Notes
This design marked a shift toward more 'realistic' and battle-worn ninja gear, influenced by the NinjaGo Movie's aesthetic but continuing the TV series storyline. The hair-poking-through-hood mold was a significant design milestone for immersion.
Similar Minifigures
Lloyd (Sons of Garmadon), Lloyd (Legacy), and other Hunted-style ninja like Kai (njo466) or Jay (njo468).
Collectibility
High for Ninjago fans; the Hunted wave is often cited as a fan-favorite for its character-driven story and rugged costume designs.
History
Follows the evolution of Lloyd from the child 'Green Ninja' to the post-movie 'Master' aesthetic. This figure represents his growth into a leader during a time of defeat.
Interesting Facts
The 'Hunted' version of Lloyd is one of the few that captures him in a state of 'Resistance leader' rather than a traditional martial artist.
Display Suggestions
Display in a rocky 'First Realm' or 'Resistance Base' diorama alongside Hunted-version Jay, Kai, and Zane. Use a clear stand to simulate the dynamic jumping pose shown in promotional art.
Modification Potential
Excellent for post-apocalyptic MOCs due to the detailed leather belts and chainmail printing. The legs and torso are highly versatile for custom mercenary or fantasy knight figures.
Overall Assessment
9/10; A fantastic representation of Lloyd with some of the most detailed textile/armor printing of the era. A must-have for Ninjago collectors focusing on the 'Hunted' storyline.
