LEGO Ninjago set 70505, Temple of Light, depicts a temple setting tied to the Golden Ninja and the final conflict in the story. Released in 2013, it contains 565 pieces within the Ninjago theme.
Temple of Light belongs to the Ninjago theme and represents a story location connected with Lloyd as the Golden Ninja. The model provides a temple setting for the confrontation involving Lord Garmadon and the Overlord, placing it firmly in the narrative context of The Final Battle.
The set includes 565 pieces and 5 minifigures: Lloyd / Golden Ninja (The Final Battle), Master Wu with Pearl Gold Hat, Lord Garmadon / Overlord (The Final Battle), Scout with Yellow Face and Swordsman with Blue Face. The build focuses on a temple structure with decorative details and areas for positioning characters, supporting scenes between the ninja side and opposing forces.
It works as both a play setting and a display piece because it provides a fixed location rather than focusing on a vehicle. Within a Ninjago collection, it stands as a narrative scene for grouping Lloyd, Master Wu, Garmadon and the enemy fighters around a key moment from The Final Battle.
