Usage |
To battle many opponents in the Spinjitzu Spinners game. |
Spinners are apparatuses that real-life players can use while playing Ninjago: Spinjitzu Spinners. The original spinners from 2011 and 2012 came with three to five LEGO bricks, colors and designs pertaining to the traits of whichever character is included. The spinners themselves are used to represent Spinjitzu used by the Ninja, however, the spinner sets came with Serpentine and Skulkin as well.
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 plate with a rounded bottom is put on the bottom side of the spinner, which allows better balance for the spinner. Weapons can also be added to the spinner. Spinner crowns can also be put on top of spinners for decoration. The spinner crowns usually consist of a part that can be used to put on top of the spinner.

Trivia
- Although the Skulkin and Serpentine are unable to do Spinjitzu, they have spinners (with the exception of Samukai, the Serpentine Generals, Snike, Selma, Skales Jr., Zoltar, Clancee, the snake villain, the Vermillion, and the Pyro Vipers). However, they are able do Spinjitzu in the graphic novels.
- Kruncha and Nuckal briefly performed Spinjitzu in mini-movie "The New Masters of Spinjitzu".
- The Legacy 2019 Spinners have new Spinjitzu molds that are more accurate to the show and work with the Spinjitzu Slam launchers.
- There are currently 33 different spinners existing in the LEGO Ninjago toyline.
- Kai is the only ninja to have a spinner for each of the five possible outfits- original, DX, Kendo, ZX, and NRG.
- In the waves of 2012, the spinners were remodeled, with holes underneath 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 LEGO Ninjago Movie (Lloyd) and Season 8 (the other five) came out in 2018.
- Spinners were replaced with a similar new item, the Airjitzu Flyers, in 2015—three years after their sudden discontinuation.
- Spinners first appeared in the game, Spinjitzu Scavenger Hunt.
- Destiny of Doom marks the first appearance of a spinner in the story's supplemental materials (comics, in this case). In it, the first part of Garmadon's Doomsday Weapon resembles a purple 2012 spinner but with its crown attached to the bottom.
- 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 returned in 2017.
- Wu and Garmadon are the only characters to have spinners who aren't ninja to be shown to use Spinjitzu in the show. Misako, the Overlord, Doubloon, and Aspheera are later shown to use Spinjitzu but do not have spinners.
- The Skulkin mini-figures have arms with horizontally-clipped hands in all their Spinjitzu Spinner set appearances to allow them to hold weapons outward, since unlike normal mini-figures their hands aren't able to move on their own.
