Based on 9 reviews · thin
At $9.99 for a mech that looks like it was sketched on a napkin, Miles Morales deserves better than this. The minifig is the whole reason to consider it — and even that's a stretch at this price.
Is the price fair?DWay too much for way too little — this mech has no business at $9.99.
Will you love it?C+The character carries more goodwill than the set deserves.
Holds its value?C-Flat secondary market, minimal collector pull — don't bank on this one.

The Full Take
Miles Morales is one of Marvel's best characters, and this set does him dirty. The mech itself is barely more than a skeleton — loose, boxy, and hollow in ways that feel unfinished rather than stylized. For $9.99 you'd expect a tight little build with some charm, but the piece count doesn't deliver enough to justify the ask. The minifig is fine, nothing special, and the spider-suit printing is minimal. Kids will have it assembled and bored within the hour. There's a version of a budget Miles set that works; this isn't it.
