MEGA Pok mon Building Toys Set Motion Pikachu with 1092 Pieces and Running Movement for Adult Collectors

excellent pikachu look, best i've seen of Matel or Lego. cool movement gimmick although due to high mass and small cogs, it's a bit rough and sometimes skips. the scenery is nice. assembly was fairly interesting though the multitude of similar yet different parts was a bit confusing at times. price is pretty fair as well.

The set is amazing! It was gifted to my daughter (9) from Santa and it is the coolest thing. Now this is a very advanced build. I'm not going to say my kid did the whole build. This was for sure a share build. Mostly by her dad. My husband said the hardest part is the belt. It is flimsy, because it has to be flexible. Took him 4 hours for the belt. The pieces are small so I recommend a designated area and zip lock bags. We have a curious cat so bagged everything up at night to ensure no missing pieces. And they do give you extras of small and crucial pieces. The instructions are nicely laid out in a heavy book with thick pages in segments, and it is picture instruction, no words. Easy for me, hard for others. Anyone that puts in reviews that it is not Lego quality, is biased. This is new, fun, and just a marvel at what can be made with just plastic. The end result gives us a lot of enjoyment. We show it off to everyone that comes over. Absolutely adorable. I think the price point is worth it. If it didn't move it is not, but the ground moves, Pikachu runs, and you and move the ears. Get the younger ones involved by making a background, or you make one. I would love to see this in at least the top 100 build sets so they make more of these. Mega Construct did an amazing job and should be proud of the product they created. Read more

As you can see in the pictures, I love different building block sets! This one, however, was seriously so much fun to put together! Very good quality, and love that it moves! I've tried several different brands of building blocks, and while nothing really beats the original as far as how well they snap together, this brand was definitely not far off from how the bricks feel when they snap together. They did such a great job with Pikachu and included lots of little details that truly made this a fun build! This was one of the first kits I've built that move, so there was definitely a slight learning curve to it. However, they have the main internal components, that snap together, color-coded. The pieces that snapped together being color-coded was an awesome extra touch, and made putting larger pieces together a breeze! Read more

My little dude loves ONE thing, and it's Pikachu. I'm a big fan of the Mega Blok Pokemon sets - they really customize a lot of the pieces, while still managing to create interesting "natural" designs using simple pieces. The running effect is so much better than expected, and the ability to twist Pikachus ears to make him look like he's going fast or slow is a wonderful touch. I also loved the inclusion of both Romaji and Hiragana name plates. This would have been a challenging build for my causal-brick-fan 8 year old. Precocious brick kids would probably manage most of it, and the set includes some ingenious ways to make some of the trickier parts easier. I did most of the building, and we both had a lot of trouble making sure all the legs were connected right. Towards the end, the front peg got knocked out and I had to spend about twenty minutes jiggling and prodding to get everything back where it belonged without taking the whole thing apart. I loved building this set,and while I acknowledge it has some fragile sections I already anticipate having to repair, the worst one is actually going to be quite easy to access - they clearly thought ahead to the need to be able to repair the "treads" for the ground effect, and removing the front plate of the base is as simple as removing 2 flat pieces and a smart tug on the connectors. The only downside is it's making me regret missing out on older mechanical sets. That Magikarp will haunt my dreams. Definitely a great buy for brick&pokemon fans! Read more

If you have a pokémon lover, this is the perfect Lego set. My niece found it easy to build and loves how it looks. It was also a decent price for a lego set. When I was looking for it I found it for a lot more money in other stores. Read more

I build a ton of Lego - this is my first Mega set, and I was very happy with my purchase. For all the Lego-builders: the bricks are NOT of the same quality as Lego. They feel cheap, they stick together like crazy, and even the parts separator is difficult to use. That being said - this set was AWESOME! The motion when it’s complete is insane - the build took a good amount of time and Mega doesn’t seem to be scared of making weird bricks for very random uses. You even build a tool for constructing a part of the kit, and then throw the tool to the side when you’re done! The bricks are lower quality, but here’s what I think made up for it: the crazy motion, the huge booklet, a resealable box, no stickers, and the final model looks so good!!! I’ll be keeping an eye out for more kits like this. Kinda wish Lego was producing kits with similar gimmicks. Read more
