Star Trench 3D Wars Run Wall Art Craft Kit, Micro Brick Framed, Creative Activity Hobbies for Teens and Adults, DIY Home, Office Decor, Suitable for Kids 8+

Why did you pick this product vs others?:I am a Star Wars fan and thought this would be a good companion piece to my Lego Death Star Trench Run diorama. This build is not for the young or novice as the parts are mini sized and very monotone colors. I knew this going in so I was prepared for a long build time. Other than a triangular part that differed slightly from the picture in the instructions, but was the correct shape and size, I had no major issues with the brick quality. Not necessarily a fun build but satisfying when done. Overall the product looks cool.

The media could not be loaded. The micro bricks are assembled with a pleasing level of accuracy, and the alignment guide that is given guarantees that even the most complicated portions are able to lock in without any difficulty. Whether I was relaxing down with a cup of hot tea after work or getting together with my adolescent for a build session on a Saturday afternoon, I found that I was engrossed for a considerable amount of time. We worked together to come up with a rotation method that would allow each of us to participate without crowding the workstation. This was a little detail but made the process of working together seem more enjoyable and less stressful. In addition to providing us with sheer fun during construction, the completed piece has converted the wall of our living room into a small diorama that is worthy of being shown in a gallery. The three-dimensional appearance is very impressive when it is mounted on its robust frame. The bricks in the front create dynamic shadows over the portions that are recessed, creating the sense of depth and movement even when seen from a distance. A number of guests stop to examine the minute accessories, which include blaster weapons, sandbag barriers, and the silhouette of a spaceship in the distance, and they comment on the cinematic quality of the picture. When we welcome our friends around, it is a rare joy to have them await the "big reveal" as they gather around for the first revealing of the work that we have done together.

I enjoyed building this one. These are micro blocks, so are harder to work with than regular size blocks. Also, it is hard to tell what color to use for some of the pieces because of the colors in the instructions. I did have trouble getting a couple of pieces on the trunk to go on, so I chucked them out since they weren't needed. Still giving 5 stars because it was fun to build and looks great, especially for the price.

So, I was worried about the complaint of missing pieces but did not have that issue and I'm very happy. The pieces look just like Lego but are about 1/3 or 1/4 the size so it made it more challenging to build... but the directions were pretty clear. I wouldn't get this for younger kids due to the detail involved unless someone is building it with them. Overall, it was cute and a fun build.

Was really impressed with the quality of this set for the price seemed very close to the name brand included bags for each section not just one big bag of pieces, and had a clear and easy to follow instruction booklet I've just started building it but looking forward to finishing it and displaying it! I've also found that the bricks were small enough to be a little challenging without being too aggravating which is appreciated they are a good size. Also I've purchased a few sets on Amazon and this is by far the one with the best quality that I've come across and it was also one of the best priced so highly recommend!UPDATE: I was kind of busy so I didn’t get around to finishing the build right away spoiler alert. I’m outside of the return window. This Lego set was unbreakable for me. I don’t know if I’ve got defective pieces or what, but it just would not come together, specifically the step where you put the black joint for the tree together it just doesn’t work the little piece that holds the tree together is one little peg in a hole, there’s no structure behind it. You’ve got all this weight on this one critical piece and it just will not hold. Furthermore, every time you try to assemble that piece other sections fall apart because they’re not engineered well it’s like they didn’t use the Legos. They just built straight sheets and then press them together with one or two little pegs holding them together and those pegs constantly fall apart I’m very disappointed because it was coming together well and looking very nice, but in terms of the engineering or design, I just can’t make it hold. I sat there for two hours yesterday trying to work on this one step and it doesn’t work. I also have a problem with the fact that they tell you to blue several pieces along the way that’s not building blocks at that point it’s model building and that’s not what this kit was supposed to be overall I’m extremely disappointed because it was looking really good and I was excited to build this one would absolutely not recommend, zero stars .

I loved this piece so much I bought a second one for the price before even building it. I am now halfway through the build and I absolutely am thinking if getting a third to put all of them together for my wall. It is not as complicated as it appears. All being the same color and small pieces is not as difficult as it might appear. I did use tweezers on a couple pieces but all in all easy. Extra pieces given so far and no missing pieces. It holds together when turned on its side and even upside down. A fantastic purchase for $19 on sale. I'm not even a Star Wars fan but thought this was very interesting.
