Lego 76140 Iron Man Mech Review





Lego 76140 Iron Man Mech is one of the latest Lego Marvel sets released by Lego as part of there winter 2020 range. The set features 137 pieces, retails for £8.99 here in the UK and comes with one Iron Man minifigure based on his appearance in the upcoming Avengers video game.


Iron Man



First of it has to be said that this Iron Man minifigure is stunning, the level of detail is exceptional as includes some excellent shading between the different red tones and the gold highlights used to show off different parts of the armour. The minifigure comes with the newer invincible Iron Man helmet design which closely resembles his appearance in the Avengers video game. The minifigure has a duel sided face, one side featuring a more released Tony Stark and the other featuring his heads up display when in the Iron Man Suit. Iron Man also comes with two power blast accessories.





The Build:




The build itself is straight forward with nothing overall complicated about the overall design. The mech features some nice red and gold detailing and the use of stickers had some armoured detailing to the set. The mechs limbs are attached using small ball joint pieces allowing for a full range of articulation in the arms, knees, hips and feet of the mech. The central chest piece pulls down to allow Iron Man to be placed in the cockpit of the mech (seen in the picture above). One of the main play features is a shoulder cannon on the mechs left hand side which can shoot out single trans blue stud pieces by pushing the gold lever at the back of the shoulder canon.







The back of the mech is well covered up using small plates and allows for a sleek look to the overall mech design. The shoulder canon can be folded down and stored down the back of the mech when not is use.




Overall this isn’t the best mech that Lego has produced but how can you complain with a price of £8.99 you get an exclusive Iron Man figure and a small mech build that has lots of playability in its design. A worthy note is that this set looks a lot better in person then it does on the box so don’t let that put you off from purchasing this set.
