Spinners

Spinners
A whole 2011 set of spinners.
Usage	To battle opponents in the Spinjitzu Spinners game.

Spinners are apparatuses that a player uses while playing Ninjago: Spinjitzu Spinners. The spinners come with three to five LEGO bricks, with the colors and designs pertaining to the traits of whichever character is included. The spinners themselves are used to represent Spinjitzu used by the Ninja.

These bricks are used to lock the spinner in place, elevate the spinner, and give protection to a character during battle. The bricks included include two 1x2 bricks, a 2x2 plate, and occasionally two snaps used for attaching weapons directly to the spinner.

All spinner sets come with some Character Cards and Battle Cards. One can spin longer if a 2x2 with a rounded bottom is put on the bottom side of the spinner, which allows total balance to the spinner. Weapons can also be added to the spinner. Spinner crowns can also be put on top of spinners.

Trivia

• Although the Skulkin and Serpentine are unable to do Spinjitzu, they have spinners (with the exception of Samukai, Snike, Selma, Skales Jr., Clancee, Zoltar, and the Serpentine Generals, but they can do Spinjitzu in the graphic novels).
  • Although, Kruncha and Nuckal did briefly perform Spinjitzu in one of the mini-movies.
• The minifigures and weapons in the spinner sets were made from cheap plastic rather than ABS in the 2011 product wave.
• There are currently 33 different spinners existing in the Ninjago toy line.
• Kai is the only ninja to have a spinner for each of the five possible outfits- original, DX, Kendo, ZXZZ, and NRG.
• Inside of each spinner is a metal "crown," presumably to help balance it.
• In the waves of 2012, the spinners were remodeled, with additions to underneath it for additional weaponry, the studs on top of the spinners became hollow, and each spinner came with a "crown" for usage. These crowns paved the way for Crown Cards.
• Spinners for the The LEGO Ninjago Movie and Season 8 came out in 2018.
• Spinners were replaced with a similar new item, the Airjitzu Flyers (also known as Ninjago Kick and Cyclondo), in 2015—three years after their sudden discontinuation, and, after the release of the LEGO Ninjago Movie and Season 8 sets, Spinjitzu Masters.
• Spinners first appeared in Spinjitzu Scavenger Hunt.
• Destiny of Doom marks the first appearance of a spinner in the story's supplemental materials.
  • Additionally, LEGO Ninjago: Shadow of Ronin marks the second appearance of spinners in the story.
• The Spinners were originally discontinued by the end of 2012. However, they return in 2019 as part of the Legacy wave, with new Spinjitzu molds.
• Lord Garmadon and Master Wu are the only characters to have spinners but aren't ninja, to be shown to use Spinjitzu in the show
