Fantastic Mech with Disappointing Stickers
Great build and a really impressive mech overall. It was fun to put together, feels sturdy, and looks fantastic once finished.
My only issue is the stickers. The one on the curved “tomato foot” piece started peeling almost immediately, and the lightning bolt on the head has the same problem. For a set at this price point, these really should have been printed pieces rather than stickers. This has been an ongoing issue across multiple sets, and I’m really hoping LEGO will consider offering printed versions of these pieces in the future.
Aside from that disappointment, it’s a great set and I’d still recommend it—just be aware of the sticker issues.

Great LEGO build for the experienced builder.

Excellent Build
Regardless of if you are a Fortnite fan or not, this is an exceptionally great build. Between the fun colors, the innovated building techniques, and the nearly full articulation of the limbs, this is one of the best sets that I have built in while. The only reason I rated the Build Experience at 4 starts was because of persistent quality controls issues with the instruction booklet.
Looks awesome.
Very difficult to build and time consuming, definitely not for children. Looks amazing once built and a great size. you can adjust the positions of the arms and legs to your desirable look. There is tyres on the bottom of the feet to stop it sliding too which is a great feature.
Not quite perfect!
This set is absolutely incredible to look at on display. My 9 year old Son with his advanced building skills enjoyed every minute! The scale is impressive and I'd say that the price point is very acceptable! Our only criticism is that it IS wobbly at the slightest touch and because of the sheer size, if it toppled it would be gone! We have tried to move into many positions to best stabilise and find that when doing so, parts fall off easily! That being said, this will be a display piece and we will be careful to choose a space that won't see it knocked over!
Great but fiddly
We loved this build, it took a while and is really fiddly, the torso keeps falling off and the feet fall off, it not the easiest to build and can get frustrating, but once it’s finished it is totally worth it. It looks amazing. And really looks the part in my sons gaming room.
Fortnite lego
I'm totally loving making this Lego piece, it's a great size and will be a perfect addition to my collection. The materials are super durable and it even has movable parts.
My New Favorite Set!
This is easily my new favorite Lego set. I am obsessed with the Lego Fortnite collection because it mixes my favorite video game with my favorite hobby. Mecha Team Leader is packed full of detail. Everywhere you look you’ll notice something you didn’t before. This build took a while and I honestly couldn’t stop once I had started but the final product is exquisite. I can’t wait to see what they add to the Lego Fortnite lineup next!
Wow
What an amazing product to review the fortnite mecha team leader lego. Each step comes in a separate bag, which makes its so much easier rather then looking through 2000 lego peices. Ive not completed the build yet, but its coming along nicely. Im blown away with how big this build is. The kids are going to enjoy this product for years
Great Lego set
This is a wonderful Lego set with plenty pieces about 2500 plus sets. It was nice building this as it kept my mind busy and kept my brain active. Really colourful and love the outcome
nice
Large and colorful.
wow! Colors and how detailed it is
Just wow! its so huge and this is so much fun! my kids love it! still building it though gonna take another few days! i love Lego! since i was a kid myself! so many to choose from different themes and designs! love love! Highly recommend visit Lego store!
Absolutely amazing
Well i absolutely love this Lego Mecha team leader he’s amazing and I cannot wait to start building this with a massive 2503 pcs this will keep me busy for a while I cannot wait it’s brilliant
Don’t buy this if you want to pose it
this set looks mediocre in person, there is barely any structural integrity, it can’t pose well, and if you try to pose it or move it, you need to fix it, because it will break. I was so excited for this set since I love mecha team leader in the game, but after having this set for a few months I have gotten more and more mad over time. If I even bump my dresser, which this is on, it will fall, and keep in mind it’s not posed dramatically, it’s in a basic pose. I wish I could rate this higher but I can’t, this set is not enjoyable and it breaks my heart.
Mecha Team leader
Was one of my favorite builds so far next to the sharkship from dreamzzz.
Amazing
This set is just straight up stellar. I won’t bog you down with gripes about lack of knee movement and whatnot. You buy Mecha Team Leader because it brings great joy to behold. Pictures cannot do it justice. If you saw this and thought “that looks awesome”, then buy it and you will not be disappointed. I had my doubts when it first arrived thinking “why did I spend $250 on a Fortnite set”, but I assure you those feelings vanished upon build completion.
Excellent recreation of the iconic Mech
This set is almost perfect, I like the colours, the features, the imposing look, the scale, and the Minifigure. However, there are a few issues I have with the set.
Firstly, there are some crucial articulation points missing, such as waist and knee joints. The lack of these hinders the poseability of the set. However I do understand that the joint pieces available might not be able to support the weight of the build.
Secondly, stickers. One sticker in particular is a bit annoying, that being the tomatohead eyes. I'm not sure if it's the way I placed them, but there are constantly air bubbles forming under the sticker, I don't know how to fix this. Also, I feel like the "team mech" poster should have been printed, as it is part of the Minifigure, I'd rather not have a sticker there.
My last issue is the hands, I think they are way too small and lack good poseability, they look odd in comparison to the rest of the set.
Despite my small issues, this set is still a 10/10, and I would recommend it. It's a piece that Fortnite fans and mech fans will enjoy.
Great robot
Looking for my next set, I came across this beautiful set as a surprise. I bought it, and wow, what a great robot to build. It has sturdy articulation and poseable arms and legs. It combines things I love in a LEGO set: large mech robots, games, bright colors, a large set with different building techniques, and lots of bricks, resulting in a large, tall mech with beautiful colors. Overall, it's a must-buy for a LEGO fan.
So close to perfection
When I was building the legs of this set, I was very disappointed on the fact that it does not have any knees. This could have been solved by using the same Lego piece used for the arms. The lack of printed Lego pieces was very disappointing for the price. I would personally only recommend this set for those game and want to build a cool set. Overall designed is awesome. I was just very disappointed in the engineering process that went into the set.
