3.0 out of 5 stars So cool to look at, so frustrating to build!
This is the second Megabloks large Dragon series set I have purchased for my son. He loves all things dragon/fantasy/medieval in nature and even though we were frustrated with the first Dragon set we bought (2 years ago), I went ahead and bit again.

We love the looks of the sets. The dragons are all very cool and we love that all the warriors are unique...

My child loved the assembly process and has enjoyed combining other sets in this series for hours of play. Assembly does require some brain usage - a nice thing in the summer. We like this toy a lot.

A Kid's Review
= Durability:4.0 out of 5 stars  = Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars  = Educational:4.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Mega Bloks Portal of Fire (Toy)
Mega Bloks has done it again! This was the first of the Mega Bloks series Fire & Ice that I got. Thoron didnt look that cool on the front of the box, but when I built him, I saw how cool he really is! He could harness the power of both fire & ice and could choose either side to fight with. I dont like how his wrists are connected to his arms using ball joints. His arms should be able to bend at the elbows. When the set is totally built its very interesting to look at and even better to play with. You should get this set as it is the core of the series and explains everything. I cant wait till the new metal ages toys come out because they look awesome! Continue the Legend!

5.0 out of 5 stars best toy EVER!!!, November 25, 2004
A Kid's Review
= Durability:5.0 out of 5 stars  = Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars  = Educational:5.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Mega Bloks Portal of Fire (Toy)
This toy is a very fun toy because the peoples armor have such good texture and detail. Dragons portal of fire is a great toy because it comes with the characters Thoron the dragon king, Fyren Olsef, Xenos, 3 fyren warriors, and 1 ice vorgan warrior. This toy also has 2 gaint statues of warriors. It also the castle has good visual texture. Also it has two towers in one. All of these reasons are why the portal of fire is the best toy ever and if anyone eles tells you other wise there WRONG!!!

This is the second Megabloks large Dragon series set I have purchased for my son. He loves all things dragon/fantasy/medieval in nature and even though we were frustrated with the first Dragon set we bought (2 years ago), I went ahead and bit again.

We love the looks of the sets. The dragons are all very cool and we love that all the warriors are unique. My son keeps the posters that accompany the sets on his walls and likes to learn each character's name. We've had some luck constructing some of the smaller sets recently which is why I went ahead and bought the Poral of Fire for his birthday. He is too young to build them himself so that leaves me.

Megabloks could do some work on the illustrations in the instruction book. It is very difficult to determine if you are setting up these large, multi-level pieces in exactly the right place which is entirely necessary if you want to put it all together at the end and have it work. Lego does a much, much better job at their directions. I also find that the Megabloks do not always fit together easily, snap into place or stay connected once you have put them together. This set in particular comes with several columns that are incredibly unstable. You think you have it together, go to add on the next level and the columns slip out of place - extremely frustrating. I am also concerned that once I do get it all together one rough battle and the whole thing might collapse.

However, I must say that my son loves it. Even during the long construction period he was busy playing with the characters and the dragon. Most amusing was the discussion some of the characters were having about the construction of the castle - "wow, this castle sure is taking a long time to be built." "Yes, we were hoping to move in before the big storm comes." and like this.

Will I buy another Megabloks set? I like the smaller ones. My kids love the big stuff. Maybe in two years I will try again - they are awfully cool to look at.

4.0 out of 5 stars Fun to play, hard to build, December 28, 2009
A Kid's Review
= Durability:3.0 out of 5 stars  = Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars  = Educational:1.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Mega Bloks Portal of Fire (Toy)
I heard all Megabloks play sets etc. don't stay together well, but I'm not sure. Really fun to play with, I'm not even done building it and I'm already having a lot of fun with it! But some parts don't fit together. I guess it depends on the set you buy on how many pieces don't fit. I've read reviews where they say many pieces are REALLY hard to fit, but so far only one of those pieces have been like that for me. You just have to get lucky, I guess. It can be frustrating to build, but really fun to play with. I recommend this for any lego/building, dragons, or fantasy fan ages 6-12.

1.0 out of 5 stars won't stay together, December 2, 2005

This review is from: Mega Bloks Portal of Fire (Toy)
This toy is extrememly frustrating for my 8 year old because the pieces do not stay together at all. He'll put one into place and a few others that were already placed will fall off. The idea is a fun one, and he would love it if he could get it to stay together at least once. He got 3 fire and ice dragon sets last year, but all of them have the same problem. I guess Mega Blocks just can't build "lego pieces" as well as Lego can.
