This is one of those toys that I meant to post about a few months back, but hey: better late than never!
Dollarama is a Canadian discount chain, and while I was staying in Toronto in the fall I came across a few Mega Bloks sets for $3.00 CDN. Since I've regularly seen these selling for around $7.00 USD, I couldn't make myself pass one up, So I picked up Adéwalé from the Assassin's Creed line.
These sets include a simple base with a few decorative accessories plus one of the standard-style block figures. In this case, the base included the floor piece, an upright mock-wood wall, a fern, and a barrel. In addition, the figure itself included removable clothing and two weapons.
Let's take a closer look!

Oh these are like those little Lego ones then? but with more accessories and a bigger base? My husband and son have several but they are the Marvel characters because they both like those. I like the extras that this one comes with.

They are, yes! :) A little bigger than Lego and a little smaller than Mini Mates.
DeleteWow, that's a good deal! He looks fun to tote around and take photos of. :)
ReplyDeleteRight? I wasn't really looking to buy him, but at that price he was too cheap (and fun) to pass up! :)
DeleteI've seen these at my local Dollarama as well...including Call of Duty, Monster High mini figs, Minions, and TMNT
ReplyDeleteI missed the MH minis. I'll have to look for those the next time I'm back up there. Thanks for the tip! :)
DeleteOh, I've also seen Spongebob Megablocks there
ReplyDeleteI LOVE MegaBloks minifigures, particularly the Hot Wheels drivers, which I've posted on many times on my Super Fun Hot Wheels blog.
ReplyDeleteThey're great, aren't they?
DeleteHere, in some stores, they sell Megablocks. I saw Minions once!
ReplyDeleteAnd that was a good deal!
I think I've seen the Minions ones as well! :)
