LEGO Ninjago set 71773, Kai's Golden Dragon Raider, depicts a combat vehicle connected with Kai and the Crystalized storyline.

Kai's Golden Dragon Raider is centered on a vehicle model for action scenes in the Ninjago universe. It belongs to the Crystalized period of the theme, where the ninja face enemies associated with vengestone and crystal based conflict. Within the range, it serves as a mobile battle subject rather than a location or building.

The build uses 635 pieces and forms a gold accented raider with an aggressive visual identity. The set includes 6 minifigures: Vengestone Brute, Vengestone Warrior, Skylor with pearl gold shoulder armor, Kai with Crystalized armor, General Mister F and Golden Dragon Zane.

This set suits Ninjago fans looking for a Kai focused vehicle for play, as well as collectors interested in Crystalized character variants.
