LEGO Present
I got this Lego set as a gift from my brother for my name day. He thought that it is good gift because i am casually playing with the game and we used to play alot with LEGO when we were children. I have not built or played with LEGO for about 20 years. I have enjoyed putting the set together. It makes a fine display. However at first i thought that i have quality issue because the printing on Hanzo's chest is abit weird. It does not match the color of his face/arm. Then i found out here it is more of a common problem. Minifigures Shimada Guard In my opinion the Shimada guard looks the best of the three. I really liked the suit printing and the facial expression. The hair piece reminded me of Elvis Presley. The character comes with a gun accessory which is well done molded piece. Hanzo The character is beautifully done with only a few flaws. The chest and arm missing the dragon tattoo and as i have mentioned earlier the color of the chest if abit off - looks pale. The design on the legs and torso are spectacular. Facial expression and hair is on point. The character comes with a quiver and bow which i did not liked at all. It is a 20years old mold from my childhood that does not represent his Storm bow in any way. Genji My least favourite is Genji. He has a nicely done torso and leg printing. The head is a simple metallic grey piece without facial expression or printing. The helm looks oversized like a Funko Pop set. The figure comes with 2 shurikens which i liked but the sword on the otherhand is another 20years old mold which does not represent his Dragon Blade.

2nd Overwatch Set with Grey Skin Tone
Great set overall. Love the look and will definitely buy some Ninjago sets to add to the feel of this scene. Only disappointment is the Hanzo Minifigure. As another has stated the Left Shoulder chest patch does not match the arm, nor the face. I thought this was just an oversight. However, just purchased another set with the character Mercy and same issue, though this time it's her face that is greyed.

Could have been better
75971 is a fairly decent set, but in my view the weakest of the current range. The build is perfectly good and conveys a nice enough scene but it seems a bit empty? Hanzo looks pretty good, even with the printing issues on his torso. His new hair piece looks really nice and is very versatile. I like his face print as well, which is also very useful. Genji looks very good. His prints and suitably shiny and well done, and his new helmet piece is very impressive. The other figure I think is a waste of the set's budget. I'd rather have seen either another hero or more build in the set itself. I know he is seen in the CGI short the set is based off, but he doesn't add much to the set. Maybe swapping him for Zenyatta would have made more sense? Not my favourite set of the range but Hanzo and Genji definitely are good enough.

Great Figs but
The Hanzo and Genji are AMAZING. The Guard is very accurate to the animated short. But, the build is SO boring. What can I do with it? Only useful thing is health pack.

Loved the set, would be 5 stars, however
My Hanzo chest piece came miscolored. The skin tone on the chest and back doesn't match the arm or the head. I loved the set regardless, but I'm pretty bummed about my Hanzo figure being a little off. Notice the grey discoloration on the chest as opposed to the peach of the arm and head. The same can be said for the back of the piece.

Solid build, minifigures fall short
The main Hanamura build of the set is well executed, with fun play features and the always welcome addition of a health pack. The guard minifigure is also a fun reference to the Dragons cinematic and an unexpected inclusion. Genji and Hanzo however, could have been improved a bit. Genji is mostly a good figure, his new helmet mold looks pretty good and is accurate to the character. as with most minifigures across all lego themes, his torso printing is amazing. the dragonblade isn't quite perfect but it's as close as lego could get so I'll take it. The one thing that really brings Genji down is his lack of a face. even the generic clone trooper face would be better than his silver head. Genji is a cyborg, and, as demonstrated in the Dragons cinematic this is adapting, is human and still has at least his eyes intact, so this feels like an oversight. 4/5 While hanzo at least manages to have a face, and a good new hair mold and bow, his trademark tattoos are not depicted anywhere on his torso or arm. they are an important part of Hanzo's apearance and show up on all of his in-game skins that show his arm. With every other character managing a perfect torso print, his failure to do that knocks Hanzo down a bit, 3/5 All in all, a solid set with decent minifigures, that I'd still recommend to fans of Hanzo, Genji, or Hanamura, as well as anyone trying to collect all of the heroes (like myself), and fans of Ninjago.
