Four minifigs in a $35 Marvel set is the kind of lineup that makes you double-check the price tag — War Machine Buster delivers the squad without making you pay flagship prices for it.
Is the price fair?A+Four minifigs and a mech for $35 — the price grade practically writes itself.
Will you love it?C+Fun build, great fig haul, a little thin on wow-factor parts — solid but not obsession-worthy.
Holds its value?C-Retired but hasn't moved much; the aftermarket treats playsets like this as background noise.
The Full Take
The War Machine Buster punches well above its price point by loading four minifigs into a $35 box, which almost never happens at this tier. The mech itself is chunky and satisfying — poseable limbs, a cockpit that actually opens, and enough greebling to feel purposeful rather than filler. At 362 pieces it's not a marathon build, but the session is tight and fun rather than padded. It's the kind of set where the minifig haul is the story: War Machine, Iron Man, Proxima Midnight, and Corvus Glaive for under forty bucks is genuinely hard to argue with. Where it shows its limits is in the overall parts selection — a lot of the piece count is structural bulk rather than interesting geometry. Still, a B+ overall is a fair read: this is a set that rewards the buy more than the shelf.
