LEGO® Monkie Kid
LEGO® Monkie Kid: The Monkey King in a modern city
LEGO® Monkie Kid launched in 2020 and is based on Journey to the West, one of the best-known stories in Chinese literature. In the LEGO® version, young delivery boy MK becomes the successor to the legendary Monkey King, Sun Wukong, and takes on demons in a modern city.
An animated series with regular characters was created around the theme: MK, the Monkey King, Mei with her dragon, Pigsy with his noodle restaurant, Sandy, and Mr. Tang. These characters appear again in the sets, often with large mechs and feature-packed vehicles.
Monkie Kid mechs and vehicles
The largest sets in this collection are mechs, such as Monkie Kid's Combi Mech (80040), the Monkey King Ultra Mech (80045), and Nezha's Ring of Fire Mech (80057). The Nine-Headed Beast (80056) and the Mythical Creature Qilin (80066) are also available, as is the smaller Monkie Kid's Mini Mech (80051).

Monkie Kid minifigures and related themes
Individual minifigures can be identified by their mk number. They include various versions of Monkie Kid and the Monkey King, Mei and Mr. Tang in spacesuits, and opponents such as the White Bone Demon, Azure Lion, Yellow Tusk Elephant, and Golden-Winged Eagle.
