Lego Ninjago 70653 Firstbourne Review

         
One day I was looking through the LEGO Ninjago sets on Amazon and I spotted something I didn't see every day. Firstbourne, a $70 dollar set in the US, was selling for only $45!

           Of course I immediately bought it, because, as many will know, I have been a big Ninjago fan since 2013. I had not picked up any dragons before this one, so it was a welcome change. Also, at 800+ pieces, this should have been at and 80 dollar price point in the first place.

           Anyway, you've got the story, now for the review. This set comes with Kai, Cole, Chew Toy, Jet Jack,  Muzzle, and Heavy Metal. Unfortunately, all of these come in another set, so no minifigures you can't get elsewhere. As far as function goes, this set is pretty great. It comes with a helicopter with stud shooters and a gear that you can spin to move the rotor, which I think is exclusive to this set. I forget. Anyway, the dragon is easy to cary around and has a function for flapping its wings, which is pretty cool because you can hold it in one hand and use your thumb to flap its wings. Also, there is another feature which is that you can turn a gear and it will move its tail back and forth.
   
       The only thing that I wish was better for this set is having spring-loaded shooters in his mouth, like Stormbringer (set 70652), had in his.

        Other than that, I'd say this is an amazing set. It comes with two pieces of the Dragon Armor, 6 pretty good minifigures, and all for an amazing price, whether or not you buy it for $45 or $70.

A Sleepy Sunday

           On Sunday, August 20th, 2017, I woke up very sleepy.  I arrived at church and drew some pictures.            During one of the speaker's talks I fell asleep singing to myself. My Mom woke me up to clean up some notecards that were on the floor.           I then fell asleep again on my Mom's lap. When I woke up it was time for me to go to Primary.  I was the only one in my class so we watched a movie.            During that movie I fell asleep three times. Next I went to sharing time and singing time. I fell asleep once during singing time and twice during sharing time, which means I fell asleep 8 times in all. When I got home I was cold even though it was summer. My Dad read my temperature. I was sick!         I rested and the next morning I was fine and I ate a lot of breakfast and went to school.
