Recommendation: yes 5 / 5 from 2 reviews

So, I got this set from amazon.de even before June 1st. And i was so excited when i got it in the mail because, i mean, its like getting a pre-release. This set has amazing features such as the disk launching trampoline, so when you fire the disk horizontal, it hits a sloped trampoline and launches up in the air. Also, It covers into a tower on 4 wheels (usually its on 6 wheels), and when it does convert into a tower the mouth is revealed and its like eating something when drives even though the mouth is not moving. Also it has primitive catapults like on Moltor's Lava Smasher and includes 3 minifigures (Clay, General Magmar, Flama). I like clays robo hover horse and the minifigure Flama, because you build it like so that when you look at it its like on flames.

Recommendation: meh 4.5 / 5

General Magmar's Siege Machine of Doom has a lot of action-packed surprises! Kids will have a blast launching the goblin discs and balls and transforming from vehicle mode to siege mode. The wheels and overall details are super edgy and fun. The LEGO Nexo Knights minifigures are sporting their signature armor and weapons. Kids will enjoy hours of imaginative, battle fun with this construction set.

Recommendation: meh 4.3 / 5 from 43 reviews

Another fantastic set. My child loves putting it together and playing with it The fact that it transforms means that you essentially have two different vehicles which adds to the longevity of the set. Lego is timeless and after the kids get bored with it, they can pass it on to their children.

Recommendation: meh 49 / 60 by Bob De Quatre

General Magmar's Siege Machine of Doom is a great set. Not only does it have (2) great minifigures, but it is also very playable and looks nice, with a good selection of parts.

The Brothers Brick

by Clinton

As a decent playset and average parts pack, I think this set is better than the sum of its parts thanks to its size and heft, as well as the fact that it fills a much-need role in the Nexo Knights lineup. The Flama and General Magmar figs are standouts and, like 70324: Merlok's Library 2.0, it's improved greatly if you already own The Fortrex.
