Green Ninja Mech Dragon (70612) 79 — The Fire Mech probably topped the Green Ninja Mech Dragon as the reviewer's favorite set so far, indicating a strong positive comparison despite both being from the same line.

Kai's Fire Mech (2013) — New mech absolutely crushes the 2013 version in scale, detail, and overall quality; puts the previous set to shame

Fire Mech from The LEGO Movie — New mech is significantly larger and more impressive than the original LEGO Movie version
