Description

A mech built around a legend

LEGO® Monkie Kid blends elements of the Monkey King legend with modern mech and vehicle design, and the Monkey King Ultra Mech is one of the theme's bigger examples of that mix. Rather than a conventional vehicle, it's a poseable fighting machine that borrows from the Monkey King's symbolism in its shaping and ornamentation. At 1,715 pieces, there's enough scope to cover both working joints and detailed armour panelling across the head and body.

1,715 pieces built for movement

At 1,715 pieces, the Ultra Mech is one of the larger vehicles in the Monkie Kid range, most of that scale going into poseable arms, legs and head elements needed for a transformable mech design. Its 324 unique parts cover both structural joint pieces and decorative armour panels, a mix that keeps the build more varied than a rigid, non-posing vehicle model would be. That variety appeals particularly to builders who enjoy poseable mech designs over static vehicle models.

Six minifigures, pilot and opponents

Six minifigures come with the set, likely split between the mech's pilot and opposing characters from the Monkie Kid storyline. That gives the Ultra Mech play value beyond simply posing it on a shelf: figures can sit in or on the mech, act out small battle scenes, or combine with other Monkie Kid sets. For fans of the show, that mix of a large mech and several figures is a key part of the set's appeal.

Red and pearl gold define the look

Red, black, pearl gold and light bluish grey make up the palette, with the gold detailing nodding to the Monkey King's regal symbolism. Red forms the dominant base colour across the armour, while pearl gold is reserved for ornamental highlights and trim. The full parts list on this page shows exactly how these colours spread across the 324 unique parts, useful for tracking down a specific piece or pairing the mech with other sets in the range.
