About This Part
Ninja, also called Shinobi, is an Element Wheel Takara Tomy released for the Synchrome System. It debuted in Japan on March 31, 2012 with the BBG-02 booster Shinobi Saramanda SW145SD, and reached western countries as Hasbro's SS-02 starter Ninja Salamander SW145SD. Its flat body carries slanted curves meant to pair visually with the Salamander Warrior Wheel, and flipping it into Crystal Up Mode exposes deeper relief that traces Salamander's scaled surface and absorbs impact differently.
In Play
As with every Element Wheel, the community treats Ninja as outclassed once a pair of Warrior Wheels forms a Synchrome build, leaving it suited mainly to collecting.
