Target has officially kicked off its Target Black Friday Sale, and one deal you might have missed is this really awesome MEGA Microsoft Xbox 360 Collector Building Set. It’s normally $150 but there’s a 50% discount for Black Friday that drops it to only $74.99. MEGA is similar to LEGO, but the brand (which is owned by Mattel) creates sets for IPs that don’t have a relationship with the other famous big block company. Some past and present examples include Pokemon, Star Trek, Halo, and, in this case, Microsoft Xbox. This would make an incredible gift idea for any gaming fan who loves working on complex building block kits like LEGO.

MEGA Showcase Microsoft Xbox 360 Collector Building Set

The MEGA Microsoft Xbox 360 Collector Building Set is a buildable 3:4 scale replica of the Xbox 360 console with a brick count total of 1,342 pieces (5.5 cents per brick). The details in this build are, frankly, incredible, and include interactive elements, lighting effects, and the coolest accessories. Here’s a rundown of the biggest highlights:

  • The Xbox console exterior is well represented with details like a removable hard drive, ventilation holes in the rear, text in the right places, and lighting effects. Unfortunately, there’s no option to swap in a red ring of death.
  • The Xbox console internals are just as faithfully reproduced as the exterior. There’s a tray to pop in the supplied Xbox game disc (we’ll get to this later), the motherboard, various heatsinks and doodads all connected by wires, and even a fancy little Cortana chip. It’s also easy to get into the console (just press a little green button).
  • The set includes an authentic looking mini Halo 3 game disc complete with a detailed Halo game box that looks just like the real thing. That’s not even the best part. You can place the Halo disc into the console’s internal disc tray and it will light up the Cortana chip inside. How cool is that!?!
  • The Xbox controller has a removable battery pack. When you slide in the battery pack, the controller’s guide button lights up. That’s because the light brick is installed in the battery itself.

So why the big price drop? According to the user reviews, the fit and finish of the bricks is not as good as LEGO sets, so the build process won’t go as smoothly (you might even need to whip out the Kragle). But once you’re done, I’m sure you’ll appreciate the incredible amount of authentic features that the designers put into this set.
