“Why Do I Surround Myself With Fools?”
Mega Construx outdid themselves with the Panthor At Point Dread set. At five hundred and fifty seven pieces (many of which are very small), this was a fun and challenging set to put together. It comes with three figures: Zodac, Sorceress, and Battle Armor Skeletor. Also included are a small version of Zoar and Panthor, whose armor can be removed.
The set is built from ten numbered bags and a few other bags that include a smaller pieces and a tool to aid in the construction of the set. My set came with an addendum of small blue pieces that are used in place of similar pieces in the set. I’m not sure why the pieces were in this set, as they look and feel exactly like the pieces that they are replacing in my opinion.
You start the set by building the three figures, Zoar, and Panthor. From there you build Point Dread. Building Point Dread was extremely fun. It was also time consuming as some of the pieces are put together in an intricate manner. That being said, the time flew by as I put this particular item together.
After putting Point Dread together, the final piece is the Talon Fighter. Again, some of the pieces were arranged in an intricate manner, but they were so much fun to assemble! The Talon Fighter didn’t seem to take as long to assemble, but it was definitely an exciting build.
The cockpit on the Talon Fighter opens and closes and you can put the figures inside of it. Two side cannons fire red missiles with a cool firing switch as well. Point Dread’s computer swivels and features some awesome graphics.
Point Dread can be attached to the Castle Grayskull set. There are a few additional pieces that come with this set that allow you to do that, so don’t toss any “extra” pieces away. As far as extra pieces go, there were quite a few of them that came with this set.
I highly recommend this set. Clear off a table, open up the bags, set the pieces out, and get ready to have fun with this fantastic set!
Thanks for reading my post. Let me know what you think about this or any other Mega Construx Masters of the Universe set!
