"Pros: The price to dollar ratio is great. The mech seems to take inspiration from Pacific Rim and looks great. Mech fans finally get a Lego mech model that has knees!!! The build is solid and quite fun to complete. Finished model looks good from all angles.
Cons: Cockpit hole looks to big to me. (I prefer my mechs to have protected cockpits). Arm blade is on the short side. In fact, the weapons all seem to be on the smaller size compared to the big robot. Not really any villain sets available at this time of comparable size. Nobody for our hero to fight. Fingers fall off easily.
Conclusion: For me, this is a positive "step" for Lego mechs. For a long time I've been disinterested in Lego mecha due to the lack of knees. I've seen lots of praise for this set due to the inclusion of knees on many videos and websites. Hopefully if this set is successful it will show Lego that fans desire articulation in their big robots."
