Hi everyone, just thought I would do a review on this Ninjago booster pack since it's my first Ninjago buy. The Ninjago theme never really appealed to me although I remember wanting the old ninja sets when I was young. Well, I saw this booster pack at a reasonable price and the main thing that attracted me was the Kendo mask! Alright here goes
Name : Kendo Cole
Set no. : 9551
Theme : Ninjago
Release : 2012
Parts : 28
Minifig : 1
Price : RM19.90, US$4.99, GBP3.99, EUR5.19
Front
Back
Nice attractive polybag design on both front and back. I guess minus the card packaging and spinner explains the cheaper price.

*I didn't open the pack of cards, but if anyone wants to see what cards are inside let me know
All parts in one bag.

Parts & Weapons
Really weird weapon designs shown in the instructions but another thing I'm happy with is the chains included plus the lightsaber handles in black!= cool nunchucks!!I know the parts are used for the spinners but it'll be useful for other MOCs since I don't plan on getting those spinners.
New Parts:
Front
I don't know if this is a new part but it sure is new to me.
Back
Minifig:
Cole with super thick eyebrows
With so many choices of weapons, obviously only the kendo stick is suitable for KENDO Cole
Verdict
Price : 9/10 - Legos here(Malaysia) are usually twice the price of US prices, so it's almost the same price for this
Minifig : 9/10 - Nice face print and of course the awesome Kendo mask!
Parts : 9/10 - As mentioned above, the nunchucks that can be made from the parts and wide selection of weapons to use
It's a really cool pack to start with if you haven't had any Ninjago sets before this. Some useful parts and weapons at your disposal too! Would totally recommend this to every non-Ninjago collector!
*This is my first review or mini-review so all comments and advice are much appreciated! Thanks for looking!
