Pritty sweet had fun putting it together

I was excited to build such a large figure, with so many pieces and details galore. I really like the metallic colors, and the design concept is really cool. However, this character was built for aesthetics, not practicality. The instructions were mostly straightforward, except for some hiccups along the way. But after hours spent building, the figure would not stand on its own, even without holding its weapon… the weapon would barely stay together, not designed well in my opinion. I had to build a structure just for support so the figure wouldn’t fall over, and it still kept coming apart… very frustrating after spending so much time building it. I really wish the plan/design was thought out better, to at least be able to stand up for display. Disappointed but it was an experience nonetheless.

Never by this one I can’t get past step 23 because the piece they have you use will just not line with each other. Never again will I buy from this company

The electroplating on this model kit literally, and figuratively, makes it shine. The plastic pieces with metal coating gives them an amazing shine and texture that looks stunning in person. I got the yellow model and I couldn't be happier, it's so very cool with its half-robot/half-demon design and the intricate detail in the standard sized 1760 pieces.Those pieces are ABS plastic so have good wall rigidity, great color consistency, and the pieces are well formed with no rough sides or edges.The instructions do a great job of guiding me through the build. They show what bags go with which parts of the model. Then when I'm building each step they show exactly what parts to use for that step.I absolutely love this model, it looks amazing, and it's a good, challenging build.

This product is a great build. Great design, only negative side is that some pieces were missing. I would say this is not for children more of the adult build.

I have a soft spot for LEGO/building set mecha, so tend to pick them up when I have the chance. This one definitely stood out for being a very striking design and fairly detailed with a high part count so I jumped at the chance to build it.The set includes a stand for the mech which is nice since they can be unstable. Unfortunately the instructions for the stand- which is almost all Technic parts- does not include any notation for the length of the Technic beams that are used (and they’re all the same color- black) so it can be a challenge to figure out which length you need.Speaking of which: built the stand -first-. That way you can use it to hold the mech as you’re assembling the different parts since you assemble the torso first and then the legs, as you can see in the picture of it partially-complete. IMO it would have been smarter to have ordered it such that you assembled the legs first and then the torso- but at least with the stand you have a good place to put the partially-assembled mech.Thankfully given the 1500+ part count the parts are separated out into 7 sets of bags (8 if you count the bags for the stand, which aren’t really numbered)- I’ve encountered too many sets lately where they didn’t organize the parts and it was a nightmare to deal with all of the parts at the start. Oddly it seems that they have put some of the parts needed for later bag sets in some of the earlier bags. I.e., one part (a 1x2 plate) that was needed for the steps with the #2 bags was left over in the #1 bags. There was also an odd selection of extra parts left over- and not just the really small ones that LEGO tends to include extras of to ensure that you don’t end up short.Speaking of the parts- since this is a non-LEGO set it’s always a bit of hit-or-miss with regards to the quality of the parts. Thankfully- for the most part- the parts in this set were pretty good. You can tell they’re not quite up to LEGO’s manufacturing quality/tolerances, but with a few notable exceptions I didn’t have any issues with them and they either held tight enough or were not too difficult to separate. The exceptions were on the opposite sides of the scale- one was so tight that it took a LOT of work to get the parts together as they needed to be and the other just keeps falling off.The latter- the parts that keep falling off- are the two back parts of the ‘skirt’ around the waist of the mech. And honestly, this is likely only partly due to part tolerances- it’s just too weak of a connection (2 studs into a brick with cantilevered weight) to really hold the parts it is attaching. The far more problematic part problem came when it was time to assemble the naginata/glaive weapon. There are two gold metallic-plated wheels that are supposed to slide onto a VERY long Technic (32L, I believe the longest that they make) axle and essentially hold all of the loose parts in the middle together. Unfortunately when I went to slide the wheels onto the axle they would NOT slide onto it at ALL- and would get very firmly stuck on the axle. I literally had to break out a pair of pliers to hold on to the axle with (since it’s difficult to grip solidly) while I pulled on the wheel to try and get it to come off of the axle. The only reason that I was actually able to assemble the weapon in the end was that I dug out some actual LEGO axles (which were just a slight bit smaller than the ones in the set) and spent some time working them in and out of the axle hole in the wheels to slowly wear down the plating on the inside of the wheels’ axle holes until they would slide- albeit still VERY tightly- onto the long axle for the weapon. In fairness, this likely was not so much a problem with bad part tolerances (though the axles were definitely larger than the real LEGO ones) as much as it was a result of the metallic plating on the wheels. If I remember correctly the metallic parts start off as regular parts with a neutral color and then the metallic color is applied afterward- which means that on the inside of the axle holes it will build up and mean there’s a smaller hole. Still- regardless of exactly why, it made those steps VERY difficult and is something to be aware of.With regards to the instructions for the main mech, they we aren’t bad. I wish that they had done a bit more with alternate views for some of the assemblies, but there wasn’t anything that really made it difficult to understand what needed to be done. There is however a mistake in the instructions at Step 273 in both the parts call-out box and the subassembly box… they call out 4 of each parts, but in actuality there are only 3 of two of them both in what is included for parts and what is shown in the main assembly picture. They try and assembly 4 ‘fingers’ for the hand while in reality you are just supposed to be assembling 3 fingers and the thumb (which has 2 less parts than a finger).The assembled mech is pretty nice, and they gave it a good bit of articulation (something that I have been disappointed in with some of the LEGO mech, especially some of the Ninjago ones) so you can post it pretty well. This is where the stand comes in really handy- it allows you to pose the mech in more action-oriented poses that would not be possible if it had to stand- and balance- on its own. Still, it is pretty well balanced and will (as you can see in the pictures) stand on its own.However, the naginata/glaive weapon that the mech is built to wield in its right hand is WAY too unstable and heavy for how the joints on the arm are constructed. The wrist joint is just a small ball & socket connection and the hand & weapon (which are also connected by a small ball & socket joint) will fall off if the weight of the weapon isn’t supported by more than just the wrist. You can see that in the pictures I took of the mech with the weapon it is either resting on the ground or being supported by the left arm as well (which took some effort to get to work and not fall off).Overall, if you like mecha, this is a decent set to pick up as long as you’re aware of its limitations and issues. It includes a lot of metallic gold plated parts and just looks really good.

The finished model looks great and was fun to build. The parts are compatible with most major brands but IS found several missing parts during assembly. The quality of the build was good but the end model was unstable or had parts that fell off. The price though was reasonable and would make for a good gift.Overall, I would still recommend this model as an alternative to major brands but only if you have a large enough collection to source the missing parts.Happy Building 😁

It was kind of fun to build it, but than it just fell apart, and I have no idea how to fix it
