MEGA Pokémon Action Figure Building Toys Set for Kids, Lapras with 527 Pieces and Motion, Buildable and Poseable, 7 Inches Tall, HKT26

Great item well worth the money grandson loved it

My son did enjoy to build this pokemon . Definitely will order more varieties of this lego

Keeps my boy entertained, he loves Lego and Pokémon and this was just fab!

A bit hard, think parental help is needed, many fiddly bits. Once bricks put together, they are a tight fit.

Kept the boy busy for hours. He really liked it. He is 9 years old and had no problem with the assembly instructions. Decent size and the moment is good once its all built up.

The media could not be loaded. This was very much a hit with little man, but mummy did end up building it as it was a bit complicated and fiddly for an excitable 6 year old. For an adult and probably slightly older child it is easy to build. Good quality parts and mechanisms. Price is on a par with lego, quality also seems to be on a par. I would recommend this to pokemon lovers.

I originally thought my 9 year old son would enjoy this, but he is a bit too tired to be bothered. However, it has been adopted by my 6 year old daughter who is currently playing with it in the hall.The bottom of the Pokemon has a rubber wheel on it, and as you move the monster along the floor this actuates the flippers making the animal look like it is swimming. Additionally there is a small mechanism which attaches to the back of the body and makes the head move.Both of the mechanisms are easy to move.I build some of the larger sets of blocks by other brands, I usually do about 1000 pieces a night. This set took me about an hour and a half. The instructions are clear, Mega has a slightly different layout to other brands in that they mark where the pieces go by colouring in the dots that connect. The instructions were split down in to 5 stages, each stage having two bags. A small tip here is to not mix those two bags together, but keep them apart as the pieces are slightly different types between them.This set has some nice pieces which are unique to me. The shell of the body has been covered well. I found the build easy enough, I think my 6 year old daughter would have been able to build it on her own (perseverance could be a problem, as this is a single model with 500+ pieces), but the actual placing of the pieces was clear and uncomplicated.

MEGA are knocking it out of the park with the IPs they have managed to secure. The Pokemon sets are fantastic, especially these larger sets focused on a single Pokemon. This Lapras is no exception.We found the instructions to be very clear and easy to follow. The resultant build is a good size and looks good on a shelf. There's a red wheel/cog on Lapras' back which can be turned to rotate his head. There are also wheels underneath which move the fins in a swimming motion. Besides these two elements there's not much here and the figure almost feels made more for display than play.At £54.99 (at time of review) it does feel clearly for older Pokemon fans who would like this on their shelf rather than a toy to play with for younger fans. I think the set is a little expensive for what it is, the piece count and considering it is not from the market leader (Lego) in construction bricks. But if you're a Pokemon fan, this is a no brainer as it's well detailed, fun to build and looks great.
