70501 Warrior Bike is a Ninjago set scheduled for release in 2013. It contains 210 pieces to build a rough terrain ground vehicle, a jetpack and the two minifigures Jay and a Stone Warrior.
Description
The Stone Warrior's vehicle is shaped like the head of a Samurai set at a nearly horizontal angle. The cockpit is surrounded by round silver pieces, making the domed top of a helmet. In front of that, two red pieces curve outward from the centre, representing the piece commonly used by the Stone Army in their helmets for decoration. Angled black pieces over light green bricks give the effect of slanted green eyes and an angry expression. In front of that are two red spike pieces depicting fangs above a stretch of black. protruding outward from this is a long red tread that gives the effect of a tongue. Two curved spikes are located on the sides, near its tip.
The vehicle has three wheels. Two large black ones in the back and one small grey one inside the tread at the front. Three flick-fire missiles are also included, these at the cockpit area where the Stone Soldier can launch them.
Jay's jetpack is black and blue with gold lining. It has two golden katana set at a downward angle on either side. A pair of conical pieces make the thrusters.
Background

These vehicles were used extensively in pursuing the ninja across the island.
