MEGA Masters of the Universe Building Toys Set, Snake Mountain with 3802 Pieces, 24 Inches Wide, 6 Micro Action Figures, Adult Collectible

I built a lot of lego and not only was this one of the best builds I have enjoyed but it was tough will all that purple. I never had a snake mountain as kid and now it looks great next to my castle grayskull. A fun build and when it finally dropped to 140$ was reasonable.

One of the franchises that Lego has not monopolized happens to be MOTU. The Masters of the Universe/He-Man franchise happens to be a Mattel product and as such so is the Mega Blocks line. While Mega Blocks aren't as precision quality as Lego they do offer alternate approach to design and play. I find the figures to be much more gratifying than Lego figures with much greater articulation. This also lends itself to them losing limbs easily and potentially getting lost. The Snake Mountain set is big, at more than 2500 pieces it rivals the larger Lego builds. It is also very detailed with meticulous elements that are unique to the MOTU characters and settings. The set comes as 4 individual builds that combine into the single playset. When fitted together they can fold into the "mountain" and also unfold to reveal a detailed interior with playable accessories such as a ladder, great hall table and other scene based elements. The exterior of the build is highly detailed with spikes, stairs, grates, arches and a lava wall that add character and plenty of grounds to host adventures. If you can get this set for under 200$ it is a great bargain, it seems to fluctuate a bit from season to season. I find it to have many more details and elements that the Castle Grayskull does not include. One thing to bear in mind is that these are not Legos and the quality is definitely less than the prestigious 99.9% that Lego maintains in its mold quality. That is one reason that you will find this set much less than if Lego did happen to have the MOTU licensing rights.

Wonderful

Such a fun build!

Absolutely beautiful.

I'm a middle aged sucker for MOTU, and also Lego-style building blocks (yes, I know these aren't Lego), so when I discovered that Mega Construx had a line of Masters of the Universe kits, well, let's just say I went overboard. I own them all. This was one of the final ones I needed to complete my collection, but the price was very high when it was first released. I was patient (which is not one of my typical traits). I eventually spotted this item on sale on Amazon for around half of its original price, and finally pulled the trigger. It's everything I wanted it to be. 5 stars, baby.

Excelente

This is a polarizing set. When you get to a fun part, it's very enjoyable, but for the most part it's almost torturous to do. I won't invoke their competitor by name, but suffice to say this set is far too fragile and there is barely any support keeping the five parts together and it won't even join together properly. As soon as I tried to move it, it fell apart. The little periwinkle teeth keep popping off. The exterior was vastly over designed with very little thought given to overall structure. And the pieces HURT. It is not fun to build. I can't imagine a child playing with this. I will say, it is cheap though. That's it's big saving grace. It's a huge set, bigger than any of the "leading competitor's" sets at this price point. But the instructions are nonsensical and the overall build is substandard.

Fantastica (anche se preferisco il castello, sempre della stessa linea). Ho avuto qualche dubbio sul montaggio, specie nella parte del serpente, però guardando bene le istruzioni alla fine ho risolto. Mini figures ben fatte e dettagliate nonostante la misura. Se siete amanti dei MOTU è senz'altro consigliata.

Excelente producto. El nivel de detalle es impresionante. Aún no termino de armarla

Fantastic set, loved building this....brought back memories of childhood

Tout d'abord soyez rassuré, il est indiqué que "le produit est envoyé dans un emballage qui laisse deviner le contenu", oui, mais en fait il s'agit de la boîte brune. Pas d'inquiétude donc au sujet d'éventuelles étiquettes de transport sur la boîte collector qui est décorée interne / externe. 2 notices vous attendent, l'expérience de montage est super, les mini-figurines sont très bien réalisées, avec un coup de coeur pour WEBSTOR. Pas d'erreur de plan, pas de pièces manquantes, je reste impressionné par le niveau de détail et l'ingénierie de l'ensemble qui est exceptionnel. Pour adulte nostalgique qui en a les moyens car il est quand même beaucoup plus cher que le château de ombres.

Das Snake Mountain Set von Mattel ist wirklich ein absolutes Top-Set! Der Aufbau hat extrem viel Spaß gemacht. Optisch muss man die spezielle Farbe natürlich mögen, aber das Set überzeugt auf ganzer Linie. Für mich ist es die absolut beste Ergänzung zu Castle Grayskull. 5 von 5 Sternen!
