LEGO's official description
Launch a SMART Play™: Drone Search for Mythical Mew (72161) with this LEGO® Pokémon™ toy building set featuring a drone with a radar and rotors that rotate and tilt. Drop berries from the drone to attract Mew – hitting the target makes the ruins’ wall fall away to reveal the Mythical Pokémon. Defend Mew, grab berries from its secret storage space, and smash open the ruins to reveal a gem. There’s even a single use Great Ball for a better chance to catch the Pokémon.
Mew, the drone and the ruins incorporate SMART Tags. SMART Bricks found in All-In-One Sets (sold separately) bring Pokémon Trainer adventures to life with limitless interactive play possibilities, enabling Pokémon and other play pieces to react with sounds, lights and more as kids move the Pokémon around. A great gift idea for boys, girls and Pokémon fans ages 8 and up, this toy set sparks fun filled imaginative play. Set contains 429 pieces.
