30533: Sam-X

Fun fact: my son is named Sam. What's better than Sam? Sam-X of course!

The mini build of Nya's mech from Ninjago is a cute little thing. It doesn't jump, it doesn't pose all that well, it doesn't have a face, but it's oddly expressive anyway. How does it manage that? There's not a lot you can do with it, but it's satisfying to look at. Had it resembled a weird inanimate object it would be right at home with the mixels.

While the build is mediocre the parts are much better. You can't go wrong with dark red, and the golden highlights are lovely. Ball joints? Oh yes, give me more.

Is it worth the price? Not really, but pick it up if you like what you see on the bag. What you see is exactly what you get.
