Okay, first things first, yes, it’s a little strange of a title for the set. However…
THIS is the replacement\/reissue of the Builder’s Forge set that barely saw distribution.
I for one am VERY happy to see it released as I had been asking Mega (outside of social media) to re-release the set.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At a robust 450 pieces, the set should retail for between $40-50. There are several alternate\/rebuilds with this set!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The instructions included show you how to make this small base, a mongoose and a mini pelican.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The alternate build allows you to expand on the base and you can rebuild parts to make a mini warthog!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I really like the holoboard included in the set!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As seen, the Builder’s Box comes with two Spartans. A Red Gungnir and a Blue EVA. Note the old style energy sword the Gungnir Spartan is holding! We haven’t seen that one in a very long time!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
