Nifeliz DDA40X Locomotive Building Set with Base, Collectible Steam Train Building Toy Model for Adult Train Lovers, Ideal Gift for Home Décor (1603 PCS, NF10296)

Best fit, best look, best delivery time and most class of all the companies that I order from. I do not do Lego - way too expensive for toy trains. Although I am serious about trains, this train is a beautiful, fresh design with all its parts in a quality box with colored glossy manual giving good detail and they even provide little boxes for sorting pieces!!!!!!!! I am spoiled and plan to stay that way! I have 2 Big Boys, a CN5700 and the BR01. I build lots of other trains but Nifeliz are the best - I wish they would design some more trains - Please!!!!

It arrived sooner than expected, and it's a beautiful addition to my set of Nifeliz trains. I had no problems with the build and no deformed or missing pieces. This train is quite long but very sturdy, and it barely fits on my shelf. lol The earlier train sets from 2022-2023 didn't include a display base like this, so to maintain consistency with my display I chose to not build the display base.One thing I was disappointed with is the new format of the instruction book. The pictures are smaller to fit more assembly steps on each page resulting in a smaller book; however, the smaller pictures make it harder to identify colors and distinguish some small parts from each other.

For a set that only costs 64$, this one is incredibly detailed, it fits on lego tracks, and although it cannot turn lego corner track pieces, it makes an excellent display piece, the only issue i find is that some parts are loose or break off too easily if you dont do some modifications of your own, (mainly the front and rear cowcatchers) and the build process can be painful due to parts being left too loose during the build following the instructions, and some parts are bending parts in a place that doesnt require any bending, purely for visuals, putting together the top grey parts can be difficult for that reason, but as far as im concerned, no missing parts, and good value for money. if you are experienced with your bricks and are willing to make some minor changes to the model, go for it, every issue i described is well fixable if you have the parts to

Good buy. This build didn’t have any missing pieces like the Big Boy build I did from the same company. Small item of note was I did receive a broken wheel. Not really a worry since it is hidden underneath.

Challenging but nice product

I put this train set together with my 7-year-old, and it was a fun! It took us about 2–3 days, working in a few-hour stretches. The instructions were decent, but there were a few areas where they could be clearer—some steps required a bit of guesswork (but no more than other big box brands I suppose). That said, the final result was absolutely worth it! The build was engaging, the pieces fit well, and my son loved seeing the train come to life. Overall, I highly recommend it for anyone who enjoys detailed building projects!Totally worth the money- I will buy another set again.

Look, it’s not Lego, but these quality of this set is higher than expected. No issues

Directions can be difficult to follow. The building in general is a great concept. Seems flimsy once it's completed. For that I'm giving it a 3 out of 5. Decent size model overall. I'd like to see other models made to "resemble" BNSF, Conrail, Norfolk Southern etc.
