"WHAT does the SCOUTER say about her POWER LEVEL?"
"It's over TWENTY THOUSAAAAAND!"
"WHAT?! TWENTY THOUSAND?!"
Oh hey, I have this one. Just need to build 80028
Still disappointed that Monkie kid sets didn't get general release past the first couple of waves. But it has made it easier to decide not to get them.
Mei, mei, wheit heive wei heire?
I have all five of the sets that this figure appears in.
This minifigure cannot be used to represent a construction worker on any modern construction site. Maybe she could work construction in the twenty-fifth century though. I'm a little concerned about the lack of warm clothing and PPE.

Over 20,000? That’s what they said about Anakin.
I still wonder why they kinda ditched her helmet in later sets. I thought it was a cool part of the armor.
;D
No lie, Mei IS my fave MK character/figure...although I think this version really could benefit from her first series helmet...come to think of it; all Mei, well combat ones anyways; could benefit from that helmet (including the "Space Suit")...plus, she's got that "Dragon-Horse tech" that transforms from jets to cars to...HOLY HANNA BARBARA: 80047: Mei's Guardian Dragon...didn't even know that was out yet...and it's funny: the Dragon-Horse reminds me of "Falkor" from "The Neverending Story"; which isn't a bad thing.:D
The Monkie Kid theme really does get some rad designs, doesn’t it?

Her hair is awesome, but can't hold a candle to that helmet!
Fun fact: despite this variant appearing quite frequently, Mei never wore this armor in the show
Mei best girl (of MK)

It might work in 24 1/2 century though. Things got a little looney around then... right, eager young space cadet?
Her helmet should've came in more sets. I know,because I own it.
It's July, not Mei :)
By total coincidence I brought this minifig (and the rest of 80041, and 80040) in to work today. Mei dueled Harumi to earn the Monkie Kid minifigs the right to join the fire department.
No, I have no particular intention of providing any context for that.
