I like it. Very good as far as the architecture. The way some floors are left open makes it feel like a real lego set.

Good stuff. I'm always a fan of the ninja stuff. Wish they'd bring some of that back.

I agree with Draygen. It looks like a set. A very well designed set, though. :D

Great looking MOC, and its what Lego should've made with the Ninja Theme.

This is really well done - a lot of neat little details and some cool work with the minifigs to customize them toward a ninja theme.

I wish Lego still made sets that looked like this... It's almost getting to the point where you can't say this looks like a lego set. :wink:

It does have a certain "set" feel to it. I do like the use of the large decorated slants instead of the molded baseplates. I wish future Lego sets would not use those baseplates. The tree is nice, and the action implied by the ninjas is great.
