Designer's notes[]
"The second set that I designed. When we decided upon the theme of Sky Pirates, I knew that this was the perfect opportunity to make a land-based set that can't fly. Graphic Designer Dano made some awesome flag decorations, which play homage to the classic Islander sets, but with a spider twist."[2]
Trivia[]
- This is the first Ninjago set to feature a big figure, Dogshank, who is exclusive to this set.
- This and 70642 Killow vs. Samurai X are the only two Ninjago sets to include a big figure.
- This is the only set to feature Cole in his Destiny suit with shoulder padding.
- This is also the only set that features him in the perfect representation of himself from the series, as 70599 Cole's Dragon features him with human skin and without the shoulder padding, while 70593 The Green NRG Dragon with a mouth bandana and his hair instead of the regular hood and without the shoulder padding.
- The Tiger Widow is much smaller than it is in the show, while the temple in this set is much less prominent in the show.
- This is one of two sets to include Cole in his ghost form, the other being 70593 The Green NRG Dragon.
- Master Wu was never seen wearing his Battle suit in Skybound nor was he seen wearing a pilot helmet. Instead, he wore his Temple robes throughout the season. He was also not present on Tiger Widow Island at any point in the season, as he was trapped in the Djinn Blade while the ninja were there.
- He is, however, seen piloting a small hot air balloon with Misako in the season's intro, as he is in this set.
