LEGO SET 71775 - Alternate build | Nya's Samurai X MECH

Exploring the Possibilities of Nya’s Samurai X MECH Parts

The LEGO® Ninjago® set 71775-1 Nya’s Samurai X MECH is a striking fusion of water-themed elements and samurai-inspired armour, delivering a dynamic, posable mech straight out of the ninja dojo. But the real magic happens when you unlock the hidden potential of those parts. From mechanized creatures to head upgrades, these alternative builds showcase just how versatile the Samurai X MECH’s unique pieces can be—whether you’re craving a fearsome Gouf-style walker, a draconic companion, or just a fresh twist on the original silhouette.

By reimagining color accents, combining specialized armour panels, and leveraging the set’s signature blade and shell elements, builders can create entirely new personalities that range from eccentric experimentations to fully fledged battle machines. Let your imagination run wild: mix parts from other Ninjago sets for cross-line mashups, swap in custom pieces for unexpected color pops, or strip away the samurai aesthetic entirely to build cybernetic creatures. Below, you’ll find five standout MOCs—each a testament to the Samurai X MECH’s design flexibility—and direct links to bring them to life in your own collection.
