Description

Home of the reef-dwelling Metkayina

In Avatar: The Way of Water, the Sully family takes refuge with the Metkayina, a clan closely tied to the ocean and Pandora's marine life, living in organically shaped dwellings rather than the treetop homes of the forest clans. The Metkayina Reef Home captures that architecture directly. At 529 pieces, there's enough scale to render the sweeping, coral-like curves convincingly, while staying well short of the theme's larger vehicle sets. The result looks noticeably more organic than the boxy buildings found in many other themes.

Reef tones instead of jungle green

Tan, dark bluish grey, reddish brown and dark turquoise make up the palette, deliberately departing from the deep greens common in other, forest-set Avatar builds. Dark turquoise very clearly signals the water and reef theme, giving the whole model an instantly recognisable underwater character throughout. With 170 unique elements across 529 pieces, part variety is solid, matching the organic, often asymmetric shapes typical of reef and coral-style builds, quite different from the straight lines of a conventional house.

Four minifigures for a family scene

Four minifigures come with the set, enough to stage a small scene around the reef home, whether members of the Sully family or the Metkayina themselves. That fits the set's character as a home and living space rather than a pure vehicle or battle model, and it combines well with other Avatar sets, such as vehicles or creatures, to build a larger Pandora scene where several figures interact.

Parts for your own reef or nature builds

Dark turquoise is uncommon compared with most other sets, making it especially useful for reef, water or fantasy builds of your own, while tan and reddish brown work well as versatile, everyday organic structural colours for a range of projects. If you're after specific shaped parts for organic architecture, the parts list on this page shows exactly which of the 170 unique elements are included, in what colour and what quantity.
