Mattel’s Tesla MEGA X Cybertruck Drops Oct. 15, Includes Over 3,000 Pieces
Mattel announced on Tuesday a new MEGA X Cybertruck building toy is set to drop on October 15, 2021, at 9am PT/12pm ET.
“Everyone at MEGA loves the Cybertruck as much as you do, so we are excited to introduce you to our latest iteration, the MEGA X Cybertruck. It is a one-of-a-kind building experience that culminates in an iconic, display-worthy model of the new Cybertruck that only MEGA can give you,” explains the Mattel Creations team.
The MEGA X Cybertruck features over 3,000 pieces and contains many details “like the sharp-angled exoskeleton, adjustable air suspension, armor glass windows, and even more Easter eggs while you put this brick model together.”
We love the shattered glass detail of the truck, reminiscent of Tesla’s original Cybertruck presentation ‘gone wrong’ (or right for the publicity factor):
This buildable MEGA X Cybertruck will cost $250 USD and “is the pinnacle of our devotion and literally puts the future in your hands,” explains Mattel Creations.
MEGA is a Canadian toy company owned by Mattel and is known for making the popular Mega Bloks. We’d sure like to see a LEGO version of the Cybertruck one day (too bad it was rejected).
Tesla is expected to start production of its Cybertruck at its Gigafactory in Texas in late 2022.
