New line of building blocks from Mattel brings all the fun of the children's darling animation to the world of toys
Despicable Me is back and brings many surprises and adventures to the lives of Gru, Agnes, Margo, Edith, Dr. Nefário and the famous Minions. To make the fun even more complete, Mega Construx, Mattel's brand of building blocks, announces its new line. Made in partnership with Universal Pictures, it was inspired by the animation Despicable Me 3, which opens on June 29 in theaters.
In addition to having many fun Minions, the line innovates and brings for the first time mini figures of Gru and his gang for children and fans of the feature film to recreate the main scenes of the film. In the assortment "Sale of Toys by Agnes", for example, the darling character joins with Minion to promote a sale of toys and help her family that is in need of money, as well as in the plot. The “Minions in Prison” assortment, on the other hand, simulates an attempt to escape from prison, which ends up creating great confusion when the toilet falls and begins to spill water (multiple blue pieces) everywhere.
Mega Construx Despicable Me 3 has more than 10 items to play with and collect. In addition, the assortments can be fitted together allowing children and collectors to free their imaginations to build different scenarios. The line is already available in the main stores in the country with prices ranging from R $ 19.99 to R $ 149.99.
Mega Construx stands out as the division of the MEGA brand that invites children over 5 years and collectors of figures to exceed their expectations with the construction of scenarios and challenge themselves creating different worlds.
