Description
About this set
The Armory is a small Minecraft blacksmith build. You put together a workshop with an anvil, chest, furnace and torch, plus a Nether portal. Two minifigures are included, Alex and the Armoursmith, so kids can gear up before stepping into the Nether. It’s a compact scene that’s easy to build in one sitting.
Rated 7+ with 203 pieces, it’s a nice starter set for younger Minecraft fans. It pairs well with other Minecraft scenes, and since it’s retired, sealed copies are getting harder to come by.
Highlights
- 203 pieces in the box
- Alex and Armoursmith minifigures
- Includes a Nether portal
- Rated for ages 7+
