​MEGA Masters of the Universe Snake Mountain Collector Set, Building Toys for Adult Builders and MOTU fans, ages 14+, HHD16

Product Information

I'm not saying you have to because everyone collects differently and for different reasons, just that if I got the urge to sell it all because of frustration, I'd probably regret it later. More importantly than it being too small, though, I just don't find the eternia set all that interesting.

The biggest issue we had with the building was that it took up our kitchen table for days, and my son needed some help. From the demon head and lavafall to the prisoner shackles and notorious Bone Throne, our designers captured every wicked detail of this lair and even added a few MOTU easter eggs.

The smaller you cut it, the more rigid it is, and at the scale MC Buzz Off is, I don't think it would be floppy at all. And there is also just a photo of a Mattel box, but if you read closely, you will notice in the description that is clearly reads “ Mega Construx Masters of the Universe Snake Mountain“.

Instead, we have a flimsier box, a worse design choice with the two large boxes and the decorative sleeve, and boring images on the front. We FINALLY have a lunch date for the highly anticipated Mega Construx Snake Mountain and it appears that this set is getting a rebrand where Mattel is dropping the ‘Construx’ and moving to just referring to this set as MEGA!

Faithfully recreated to summon destructive evil, this adult builder set harnesses all the dark magic you remember, including the cavern entrance, lavafall, suspended rocking bridge, prisoner shackles, monster pit with tentacles, c. Minifigs packaged with the set include Dragon Blaster Skeletor, Thunder Punch He-Man, Evil-Lyn (vintage toy colors), Trap Jaw, Ram-Man, and Webstor.

I don’t want to step on someone’s toes but when Mega makes a big set (Snake Mountain) the complaints come pouring in that it’s too expensive. It is barely attached to the playset, Snake Mountain…I probably could drop it from 8 feet in the air like I did Grayskull, and it would mostly stay together except for the little horn details and such.It was the single carded figures that got me into this line, the brick builds feel like a bonus and even secondary. I'm one of the people who collects a brick-build line for the figures and cares nothing for the builds, really. The set features a range of amazing details, including trap doors, secret rooms, and battle platforms, making it perfect for recreating your favorite scenes from the classic He-Man and the Masters of the Universe TV series. Faithfully recreated to summon destructive evil, this adult builder set harnesses all the dark magic you remember, including the cavern entrance, lavafall, suspended rocking bridge, prisoner shackles, monster pit with tentacles, coiling passageway that leads to the mountain's summit, trap door, break-away wall, computer console and, of course, Dragon Blaster Skeletor's iconic Bone Throne and table. The figures that accompany this set are fantastic, as well as the vast majority of the snake mountain.

Since I didn't get SM or CG, so having the set pack-in figures available some other way is always welcome. Also the monster face at the base of the mountain just appears from the build, and as I mentioned before, I prefer that! Read more about the condition New: A brand-new, unused, unopened and undamaged item in original retail packaging (where packaging is applicable). Snake Mountain is even taller than Master Grade Gundam Epyon EW on a flight stand with beam saber raised!If the item comes direct from a manufacturer, it may be delivered in non-retail packaging, such as a plain or unprinted box or plastic bag. Plus, I like that it's small, because I can put it together, admire what it took to design it in bricks, even if I still don't care for the aesthetic, then put it away.
