"MetalBeard's Duel earns a BrickScore of 74.8 and near-universal expert praise for delivering one of LEGO's most gleefully unhinged character builds: a robo-pirate mech assembled from literal ship salvage, loaded with functional cannons, a treasure chest, a shark, and a peg leg. Minor frustrations around parts falling off and a finicky sword grip are real but do not undermine the verdict, and real buyers back critics up with a 4.73 out of 5 across 39 ratings."
Reviewers across four expert sources unanimously praise MetalBeard's Duel as one of the most inventive sets in The LEGO Movie line, celebrating its gloriously wacky pirate-steampunk-mech hybrid design where a robo-pirate is literally assembled from salvaged ship parts. The BrickScore of 74.8 reflects strong agreement on design aesthetics (87.5) and display value (83.8), though critics and owners diverge sharply on value: the aspect consensus scores value_for_money at 60 while real buyers gave it 4.73 out of 5 overall, with 90% recommending it on LEGO.com. Stability and parts-falling-off issues appear in every expert review but are consistently treated as minor caveats rather than dealbreakers, and the consensus is a clear buy.
