MEGA Masters Age 14+ of the Universe Toy Building Set, MOTU Castle Grayskull with 3508 Pieces, 6 Micro Action Figures and Accessories, for Collectors, GGJ67

Wow, I didn't expect this set to be so fantastic! Having purchased it a few months ago, I didn't have the time to build it, but thanks to lock-down, this was a great set to pass the time with.The set comes in an amazingly well thought out box, with lovely art work on the front and 4 smaller boxes inside, each with nice nostalgic images of the characters from the 80s. The mammoth sized manual is also inside.The manual is quite easy to follow, however you do have to pay attention at times, particularly if you're building this in the evening under artificial light. The steps are well illustrated for the most part and well laid out. Building the towers and turrets was fun and a little challenging at times, especially with the smaller pieces. If you don't like some things on how Mega Construx instructs you to build it, you can add your own minor alterations. I'm not a fan of the 5 teeth in the middle of the skull so just had four with a small square Construx piece in the middle, which I think looks better. The set took me about 5-6 days to build and was interesting, there are a lot of extra pieces which can come in handy should you lose any pieces or wish to add a few extra bricks and pieces surrounding the castle.The set itself, once built, is a site to be behold, it really is stunning. The figures included - He-Man, The Goddess, Sorceress, Man-At-Arms, Skeletor, Beastman are all great and are nicely designed and assembled. These figures are slight variations from previous single releases. I particularly like Skeletor, The Goddess and the red variant of Beastman. The castle displays very well with other MOTU MC figures and also the Battle Bones set (which was an exclusive release). There is also a lot of play value in this set, it honestly is so much fun, and reminds me of my vintage Castle Grayskull from when I was a child.I recommend this set highly to any Mega Construx or Lego fan and also fans of He-Man/Masters of the Universe.

Comprehensive instructions, very detailed small figures. Lots of nostalgia vibes in a compact package.

people need to stop being Lego snobs, this Mega is full licenced and the has far better types of bricks for different build ideas that lego haven't even thought of, honestly i build both Lego and Mega and lego have alot of catching up to do against this company and this build and castle grayskull and the rest of the He-Man sets. the only negative i will say and have a out Mega is the bricks are sharper and a little uncomfortable to put together due to the bricks being so tight compared to Lego, but only the massive plus side to that, you build is far far stronger and you have the confidence that its not got to fall apart easily if knocked of moved 👍👍👍

My husband LOVED this! And had fun over Christmas quietly constructing it. A big hit!

For years I waited for this kind of construction. It's great, but. The item is arrived without a part of the brown box and with the packaging box a little bit damaged.

Being a Lego fanatic I thought I’d buy it as I liked the minifigures and have to say love it. It’s a fairly difficult build but have to say impressive and much sturdier than Lego which can be prone to fall to pieces. The bricks fit as good as Lego and only if you construct it wrong does it appear that they don’t fit but it’s great and reminds me of the castle I had as a child it took me all twixtmas to build it but contributed to the best Christmas ever thank you mega construx and we want more please

I played with Lego as a child, was obsessed in fact. So, as an adult when lock-down happened I decided to get this. It is superb! Hundreds of pieces, wonderful design, and unique shapes make this a real treat. Everything needed to bring the mighty Castle Greyskull to life. Of all the range available on Amazon, I've built them all, and this one is the crowning glory. It is well worth the ££. Now, enjoy, relax and get ready for Skeletor!

Wow, what a construction. Enjoyed every minute of it. It’s a fantastically detailed build. It expands on the original 80s play set design too with an additional level and an enclosed dungeon area. It was amazing for a nearly 40 year old original Masters fan to build, the box is also full of fan service via the artwork on the internal packaging. Now I just have to deal with my kids playing with it and trust them not to destroy it, it is quite sturdy though. The Included figures need a mention, they are extremely well articulated and an excellent scale. Brilliant product!
