Mega Hot Wheels Muscle Bound Building Set with 622 Pieces Collector Gift Set for Adult Builders

MEGA and Mattel have been doing a great job of bringing the Hot Wheels cars to life in brick form over the past few years. While Mattel Brick Shop works on the realistic cars, MEGA works on the cool, fun ones. The Muscle Bound brick set is no exception. The set comes in a great box that is very giftable. Inside are the bricks and manual. All of the bricks are Lego compatible and snap together just as easily. The manual is easy to follow and things are clear when it comes to where things attach. I love that they don't use stickers but printed bricks instead, it gives a cleaner look to the finished set. The end model is a nice looking replica of the die cast car. The wheels move, doors open, etc. but I don't know that it is sturdy enough to stand up to play. Not an issue for me since I only want to display it. It is a bit pricey at $75 for a set with only 600 pieces (and the only reason for my 4 star review) but, if you love unique builds that are a lot of fun to assemble, this is a good choice.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This one was awesome to build together, of course i did all the buidling and they helped with finding the pieces lol, but ultimately they were happy with how the car came out in the end. The kids enjoyed it from start to finish and even put a lego guy in there to drive the car. These types of builds are cool. And fun for the kids as well as adults to spend some time. Now time to see if theres more of these lol.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Pros: Really great looking build, full of neat details. Car looks awesome when complete. Cons: Some parts felt like they should have been completed earlier in the build to make it easier, ie steering wheel. The roof of the car does not sit securely so immediately comes off when played with.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Detail is unreal! I would like to see this car driving down the road. The build was a breeze.. bags were labeled by number so it came together quick. My son loves this car it's durable for crashes while playing with (big plus). It has a bright blue nos tank hidden in the back the roof comes off easy and reattaches without breaking off other pieces. You can recline the seats. There's just so much we like about this car from building to play. It even looks nice on a shelf for those who like to build with these blocks. Total win in our house!!! We are looking forward to building another.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Hot Wheels Muscle Bound Car is an awesome combination of cars and building. It took adult supervision to finish building it, but my kids enjoyed the finished product. The instructions were easy to follow and made building it very easy. The hardest part was keeping the smaller pieces straight, especially the singe pieces. The hood of the car can be propped up and it rolls just like you would think a Hot Wheels car should go.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] If you love legos this is a big set! It comes nicely packaged so keeping organized is easy. It took me and my 9 year old several hours over a few days to put together. The end product awesomeness! Lots of detail and able to move with out it falling apart. Very unique set.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was a difficult, but fun build. Both my son and myself built it together. We the instructions were very clear and detailed with excellent pictures. We had a lot of fun playing with this along with some of his other toys. The car looks very nice too. This is the first Hot Wheels product that we've ever gotten to build before.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My kids had so much fun putting this car together! The pieces were a bit harder to snap together than the Lego sets they are used to, but they found it to be a good challenge and they said the tool used to take the bricks apart was way better than the Lego version! It took them longer to do than a typical set, which was great. They really enjoyed putting this together!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great, large build project, especially for an 8 year old interested in cars. It's a little high level of building for an 8 year old though. Doesn't go together in an afternoon, but it's coming together after 2 afternoons. High quality and challenging project.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Super cool set. The packaging was good but there was a lot of individual bags that made it seem overwhelming. The instructions were awesome. It was nice to have where the pieces were to go highlighted. It made it easier for the kids to do. The finished product was really fun and detailed.
