Description

Embers in miniature

Vulk is one of the Mixels, the little brick-built creatures from 2014. At 69 pieces it is a quick build, yet it still ends up with arms, legs and plenty of personality. There are no minifigures in the set. What you get instead is a creature that can move and be swapped or combined with other Mixels, provided you own more than one of them to experiment with. The pairing with black makes the warm tones really glow.

A palette like molten rock

Black forms the base, red and dark red sit on top, and trans-orange gives the impression of glowing stone. The colour choice tells you this figure is meant to represent heat and fire. For your own projects the transparent orange parts are the most interesting, since they work as flames, lights or embers in vehicles and small dioramas where there is otherwise little colour. The reddish pieces in particular recall rock fresh from the mouth of a volcano.

Few pieces, many types

Of the 69 pieces, 26 are different types, which is a decent amount of variety for such a small set. Open the parts list on this page and you can see at a glance which elements appear several times and which only once. That is handy if you bought the set second-hand and want to check that nothing is missing before you assemble it or put it on the shelf. That way you keep track of everything, even when the loose parts have sat in a box for a long time.

Play, swap, rebuild

Mixels invite you to trade parts between figures, and that is where much of the play value comes from. Vulk mixes well with other small sets. The “What can I build?” tool on Bricoria shows which models your whole collection can make, even if you took the original figure apart long ago and only have loose bricks left in a box. This keeps the set useful even when the figure itself is no longer assembled.
