What reviewers are saying

"this XL battle machine is legit look at just how big the thing is"

JANG's LEGO Reviews

"Evo XL is a set that will either be loved or hated. He takes a new step with the current building system, moving toward a more technic inspired build."

Ecosystem

Evo Walker — According to the set bios, the Walker is destroyed in the story and Evo takes over the XL Machine. Evo Walker is smaller; Evo XL Machine is the larger mech form.

Splitter Beast — Evo appears in three forms across three sets: Splitter Beast, Evo Walker, and Evo XL Machine. The same minifigure and accessories appear across all three, but this form features the largest mech.

Previous XL sets — Unlike previous years of Heroes where they actually have an increased size, Evo just has a really big machine rather than the character itself being larger.

Freeze Machine — Shares the hand arm design with flipped thumb finger design; both feature the same awkward T-Rex arm aesthetic.
