Monkie Kid's Cloud Jet Reviews
New Elementary
“The Cloud Jet looks great, with interesting angles and vivid colors, and I found it to be much more interesting build-wise. The angles are achieved mostly with some clever - although not revolutionary - Technic construction.”
“The #80009 LEGO Monkie Kid Pigsy’s Food Truck is one of the most talked about sets in this collection. It comes with 832 pieces for $69.99. The fully equipped food truck is quite large, and it doubles as a secret command center. Both sides of the vehicle open, revealing a... More seemingly normal food truck on one side, and the other side hides a full command center.”
