Monkey King Ultra Mech Reviews
Brickset
“Mechs have become an important aspect of LEGO's product portfolio, but designers continue to find innovative methods of constructing these vehicles. 80045 Monkey King Ultra Mech certainly offers some unique features and looks magnificent, including exceptional detail. The... More colors are appealing and this mech possesses its own character, distinct from 80012 Monkey King Warrior Mech.”

The Rambling Brick
“The Minifigure detail is certainly impressive, but would it be churlish of me to ask if the Azure lion should be Azur in colour, rather than teal? The build is extremely detailed, however, the one criticism I would give is that some elements are prone to fall off, especially... More those covering the hip joints. Not such an issue if it is going to be on display, but it happened often enough during some casual play, that it began to challenge my patience. I would recommend this set to anyone with a budget, as well as an interest in Mech Building.”
