Designer's notes[]

"When we knew that we wanted to do a dual dragon we went out and build several completely different takes on this concept. We ended up with a simple design that had the mixing of fire and water running down the back of the dragon.

For the forge itself I wanted to have a big play space but still try and have the opportunity to close up the build. I tried to put in a lot of small play functions that tied in to crafting weapons. That is why we in the instructions give ideas to how you can rebuild the weapons in the set."^[2]

Trivia[]

• Kai and Nya have double-sided heads in this set, with each having a smirking expression on one side and angry expressions with their respective elements in their eyes on the other.
  • Only Nya's double-sided head is exclusive to this set because Kai's double-sided head came in 891729 Kai and in The Ultimate Ninja Training Manual book.
    • Kai's face resembles his corrupted face from "The Forgotten Element" when he wielded the Staff of Elements (though with orange eyes instead of red), and Nya's resembles her face in "The Way Back" when she was possessed by Delara's spirit.
• This is the first Ninjago set to include Ray and Maya, who are exclusive to this set.
• Kai wears a ninja hood in this set, but in 70621 The Vermillion Attack he wears a bandana.
  • Similarly to the "Day of the Departed," the bandana used for Kai in 70621 The Vermillion Attack was not used in the show for The Hands of Time. This makes Kai's hood piece appear only in this set and 70595 Ultra Stealth Raider.
• At the end of the set's animation, Raggmunk doesn't appear alongside the other characters. This is probably due to an animation error.
• The Dragon's Forge made its first appearance in the episode "Pause and Effect," and the Fusion Dragon made its first appearance in "Out of the Fire and Into the Boiling Sea."
• This is the largest set in this season's wave.
• A stickered version of Card 5 - Samurai X appears in the set.
