LEGO Ninjago 71717 Journey to the Skull Dungeons

LEGO 71717 Journey to the Skull Dungeons is a Ninjago set released in 2020 with 402 pieces. It depicts a dungeon setting tied to the Skull Dungeons storyline, with ninja heroes and an opponent for underground adventure scenes.

Set 71717 belongs to the Ninjago theme and focuses on a dungeon location rather than a vehicle. Its subject is a hostile adventure setting where the ninja can be placed in exploration and conflict scenes, making it a scenery-based entry within a theme often built around characters, enemies and missions.

The set contains 402 pieces and 4 minifigures: Jay / Hero Jay, Lloyd / Hero Lloyd, Nya / Hero Nya and Murt. The build creates a compact play scene for arranging the characters and staging movement through a dungeon environment.

For display, it works as a dungeon fragment or as part of a broader Ninjago shelf rather than as a large standalone structure. For collectors, the appeal lies in its themed setting and the Hero versions of Jay, Lloyd and Nya.
