Description

Ice and shadow in one build

The colour scheme is built around contrast: black and light bluish grey form the mechanical body and armour plating, while trans-light blue stands in for ice shards and frosty detailing, and dark orange breaks up the cold palette with warmer accent pieces, likely on weapons or trim. At 415 pieces the set is a mid-size Chima release for 2014, substantial enough to give the walker a real four-legged stance and posable joints without turning into an oversized build.

131 unique parts

131 of the 415 pieces are unique, a moderate ratio that suggests a mix of standard structural bricks for the walker's frame and a smaller set of specialised parts for the animal-style detailing, such as claws, fangs or the transparent ice elements. That combination makes the set a useful source of both trans-light blue pieces, which are relatively uncommon, and dark bluish grey structural parts. The parts list above lists every one of the 131 elements individually.

Three minifigures for the Ice Hunters side

With 3 minifigures, the set supports a small Ice Hunters scene rather than a full tribal battle, in line with most animal-walker sets from the 2014 Chima wave, which paired one large build with a couple of characters. If you're collecting across the different Chima tribes, this set adds Ice Hunter-affiliated figures and colours distinct from the fire, jungle or other elemental tribes in the theme, which keeps a mixed shelf easy to tell apart.

A theme built on animal tribes

Legends of Chima ran through 2013 to 2015 and centred on rival animal tribes fighting over a magical energy source, with the sabre-toothed tiger Ice Hunters as one of the more antagonistic factions. Because much of the build relies on generic Technic-style connectors and panels rather than heavily tribe-specific prints, many parts remain useful outside Chima builds too. Compare the piece count, colours and part variety above with other Chima sets you own to see how this walker fits in.
