Mega Construx� Probuilder� Viking Longship Raid

To summarise, this is such an excellent set. I have admittedly been slightly obsessing over vikings, and so this was a must-buy for me. The build is, as I said, excellent, though a lot of small parts, and does get very fiddly (especially the rigging). No stickers, so all patterns and shields are prints. Always a bonus. Only had one piece missing, and I did have a spare. Though that isn't the fault of the seller or Amazon. The figures are incredible. Accurate weapons, all individual colours, three of them even have tattoo prints. I cannot fault any of them. The female warrior (known as a shield maiden by the vikings) has a cape with a print on. Like I said, cannot fault the details. The shields really pop too. There's 14 of them total, all with unique prints. Overall, I am truly impressed by this set. The ship is looking historically accurate, as are the figures and their weaponry. If you're a history buff like me, this is definitely worth a purchase.

After finishing the Lego Ninjago City, Docks and Gardens with my son, we were looking for our next build. We had never tried MegaConstrux before, but the set looked interesting. The bags weren't numbered, like Lego. The downside of this is that a large area is needed in order to spread out and organise the pieces. The upside, in my opinion, is that it was better for my son to have to do this, instead of being spoonfed a la Lego. We did discover one piece was missing; a quick telephone conversation with MegaConstrux and the missing piece was on its way. It will take 3-4 weeks to arrive though because replacement parts are shipped from Canada. Not a problem, in this case, because no other parts attached to the missing piece. It is an absolutely fantastic model and incredible value when compared with Lego. We have just ordered our second MegaConstrux set and hope it is as good as this. RECOMMENDED.

Great quality. Looks amazing. Awesome set. Love the viking theme.

Requires a decent amount of time to complete from start to finish perhaps with several breaks in between. Nonetheless a decent finish. Once completed and posed for display especially with the well crafted & articulated little figures

Bought as a Xmas present, took a few hours to build and looks great once completed!

Excellent Viking Longship and Vikings. Very enjoyable build.

Absolutely brilliant!

I tried very hard with this model build but ultimately gave up half way through. Some of the visual instructions were poor and more importantly, when affixing parts to the main body of the ship, they were prone to drop off and it was very difficult to fit together. This was a shame as the idea was good and the individual pieces well crafted, but really when affixing a structure together it shouldn't immediately start to break apart.

This ship is amazing! We bought it for my son when it first came out. Seeing it at this price now makes me want to cry, ouch! Half what we paid. Same as his space rover pro builder. However he loves them. Here is the deal, Mega Construx, formerly megabloks does not organize their pieces like Legos into bags, and the instructions are confusing for some people. Once you are familiar with their system, and you get your own down (my son organizes his pieces into bowls according to color and size.) then it’s pretty smooth. Their sets are SO unique and all my boys live them! Their people are far superior to Lego, and honestly, I like he detail in their sets. That being said, the building appeal may not be for younger kids for larger sets. Stick with the PokeMon sets, etc. this ship is a STEAL at this price! Snag it!

tutto bene box nuovo e spedizione veloce

Ich bin erstaunt, wenn ich mir einige Rezensionen so ansehe. Ich kann die negativen Kritikpunkte nicht teilen. Im Einzelnen: Die Qualität der Steine ist gut. Es fehlt nichts und es ist nichts beschädigt. Ich habe keine Farbunterschiede feststellen können, die Klemmkraft ist enorm und liegt deutlich über der des "Platzhirsches"! Schlecht klemmende Steine? Bei mir Fehlanzeige. Eher das Gegenteil ist der Fall! Auf manchen Teilen finden sich kleine Unsauberkeiten im Kunststoff auf der Seite. Da es sich hier aber um ein Holzschiff handelt finde ich das nicht problematisch. (wäre es ein Porsche fänd ich das weniger gut!) Der Aufbau geht gut von statten, die Bauanleitung ist klar und verständlich. (Mich stört das Querformat nicht - Geschmackssache!) Ich habe keinen Fehler gefunden. Richtig gut gefällt mir die Bautechnik: Keine großen Formteile für den Rumpf, es wird alles klein in klein gebaut und das macht richtig Spaß. Kein Gefrickel oder Gefriemel und statisch gibt es ebenfalls keine Probleme. Bis zum Abschluss des Rumpfes hab ich in letzter Zeit nichts gebaut, was mir soviel Spaß gemacht hat. Stabil ist das Ganze dann auch noch. Der Aufbau von Mast, Segel und Deck ist nicht so mein Ding, aber das liegt in der Natur der Sache, es ist eben ein Segelschiff (Takelage, Segel etc.) Die Optik insgesamt ist klasse und genügt dem Auge des strengen, langjährigen, Reenactors vollauf. Ich habe mich entschieden die "Zeltplane" aus optischen Gründen wegzulassen. Die beiliegenden Figuren sind sehr detailgetreu gehalten und liegen optisch irgendwo zwischen Vikings, Last Kingdom, GOT und der Wirklichkeit...Hörnerhelme glücklicherweise Fehlanzeige. Wichtig ist noch, dass es trotz der Figuren eher ein Virinenmodell ist. Fazit. Das Schiff wird neu zwischen ca. 60€ und 150 € gehandelt. Für 60 € sicherlich ein Schnäppchen, dafür meine klare Kaufempfehlung! Für 150 € würde ich es nicht kaufen. Für mich bislang das schönste Langschiff im Bereich Klemmbausteine!

Mega Construx need to improve on the packaging of pieces so that it is more efficient and less frustrating. I originally wanted to refrain from opening all bags as I did not want to miss pieces but by step 12 found myself having to open almost all the bag. Instructions and bags should be mapped together. Take a page out of Lego books when it comes to organization of construction/packaging and implement a better process. I found myself really irritated but was able to complete the build with my son after a couple of hours. It looks amazing once completed. My son absolutely loves it.

C'est un très bel ensemble qui a plu à ma soeur, le seul défaut c'est qu'un de ses personnages a deux jambes gauches .
