“I love the range of builds in this set! There is an attention to detail at every level that makes each of the models a joy to build. for me, the weakest link is the bad guys and their little mech. Overall this is an amazing set and certainly worth every penny. I'm already... More excited to dig into another Monkie Kid set!”

“One of the most eye catching sets from the new LEGO Monkie Kid range was this – 80012 Monkey King Warrior Mech. With the gold and red color scheme, this is one beautiful looking build. Not only that but there are four little side builds and six minifigures included. The fact... More that this is LEGO impresses me, and I’ve seen some even more incredible things made out of the humble brick. If you have the opportunity to add this to your collection, I don’t think you’ll be disappointed.”
