"Mei's Dragon Car posts a Mixed Reviews BrickScore of 62.0: the neon yellow debut and dragon head cockpit are genuine highlights, but exposed front-wheel gaps and an inflated price tag keep it from matching its predecessor, and reviewers are unanimous that the White Dragon Horse Jet is the stronger set."
Reviewers reach high agreement that Mei's Dragon Car (80031) is a visually striking but slightly uneven entry in the Monkie Kid line. The set's biggest draw is the introduction of a new neon yellow (Lemon) LEGO color and an impressive dragon head cockpit with integrated projectile launcher, but multiple reviewers find it falls short of Mei's prior White Dragon Horse Jet in overall design cohesion. Owner data is very thin at only 2 ratings (averaging 2.67 out of 5), so it provides little reliable signal beyond LEGO.com's own 4.0 average and a 50% would-recommend rate.
Where they split: All three expert sources agree the set is decent but not the best Mei vehicle, giving it a narrow range (55 to 72). The main split is between reviewers who lead with the new Lemon color as a genuine highlight and those who focus primarily on the design gaps around the front wheels. Owner sentiment is too thin to draw conclusions.
