30537 Merchant Avatar Jay is a LEGO Ninjago - Prime Empire polybag set released in 2020. It includes Merchant Avatar Jay, and a cart with fish and weapons.
Designer's notes[]
"I designed this set to fit in perfectly with the gamers market, featuring a character who has adopted the avatar of Jay and is selling items out of his roaming merchant’s cart. In true Ninjago style, he is selling weapons as well as fish! The great thing about fish though, as The Ninjago Movie taught us, is that they work great as hilts for the weapons."[1]
Trivia[]
- Merchant Avatar Jay is exclusive to this set.
- It's worth noting that the Avatar form Jay uses in this set is significantly different than both of his Prime Empire variants, Digi and Avatar (which both appear in 71715 Jay Avatar - Arcade Pod). He dons his Legacy outfit with a silver conical hat (previously seen on Yang and Techno Wu) and wearing Legacy gi with a blue half-mask.
- Strangely, Merchant Jay wears a conical hat, but he has a dual faceprint, which makes his face visible even from the back.
- Merchant Jay never appears in the TV series.
