Sluban Samurai Mech Building Set, Light Lance Mecha Warriors Building Kit with Trident, Creative Collectible Toy for Adults Man Teens Boys 8+, Compatible with Lego Mech Set, 511 PCS

My just turned six grandson insisted that he wanted this item despite being told it would be too difficult for him. He shedded a few tears out of frustration when he tried to assemble himself but would not give up. His father offered help and they succeeded. He was overjoyed and thought this is a real cool toy. He has a lot of Lego sets and is very good at reading charts. I think it is challenging for six olds but doable with adults help.

Got for my son's birthday. He built it himself and loves how big it is! It's quite impressive once built. Definitely a good mech for kids 9 & up

Grandson loved itSo

product is good. quality is ok (there are some blemishes). the reason for 4.5 star is bec there was a missing piece from 1 of the plastic packaging BUT since there are a lot extras pieces from the other packaging that came together with the toy, i did not have to returned it or ask for replacement.bought the item for $24.99 about the same price as most plastic model kits or mecha lego toys.

A lot to love here. This was one of the rare "bigger then I thought" online items.This is an advanced build but not overly difficult. If your block builder can follow the picture guided instructions and has the patience to give a project a few hours, this is home run fun.As a frequent model builder, highlight why this was a 5 star review.The decals or stickers are instructed as you go, rather then build and now try and get them on your model. Was able to peel off and restick failed alignment attempts multiple times.The quality of the blocks was excellent. When you go off brand with these building sets you might take a hit on the quality of the blocks. Mostly poor fitting, look and feel cheap. These felt like the name brand, high quality, no sloppy mold castings. On any of the blocks and it did have a few custom pieces. No problems of loose or awkwardly connections. In fact some of the connections were a little tight which I actually prefer.The articulation of the model is pretty astounding for a block model. Every joint seems to move whether it be knees ankles you can pose this character several different ways it comes with a cape, two different types of weapons.it is a building block kit so while I wouldn't hand it to a child to play with like an action figure you can more than easily find yourself choosing to repose this character different ways, without fear of it crumbing on you. I found with other building block kits, sometimes you need to super glue certain components of it together if you want it to stay together just being displayed. I'm only about 70% done but the "snap" of the build leads to believe will continue to be unnecessary. The only loose connection are the guns as holstered on waist, as it is meant to be a often used screenshotIt's a very nice additional feature, it feels like a collectible action figure you would buy at a toy shop for a premium price with all those different points of articulation and accessories with the difference being of course that you got to build it.Bottom line: I'm a fan. I was blessed enough to receive for an unbiased, honest review. And I can honestly provide no better review then saying that I will be back, buying the next one.As far as building block sets this is an advanced time intensive build that is going to be great for the individual that loves those kind of projects. The only take away is the color scheme of the printed instructions do make it difficult sometimes to differentiate from shiny black, regular black and dark blue. Now my understanding is they have to leave it vague as the color of the plastic that comes out of the factory might vary from production runs, so if anything you just have to focus a little bit to notice if it's got the symbol for shiny dark regular dark or the subtly dark blue.And that's it, that's all I got, I'm having fun I'm going to go finish it up if anything terrible hits me at the back page I'll be sure to update my review but two thumbs up.

I got this for my 10yo, but he got a bit frustrated, so I started building it to see how it was for my review. The pieces snap together cleanly, always the most important thing. Some of the coloring in the instruction book is slightly off, and it can be hard to tell what the arrows mean or where things go, but if you're an experienced builder it should be okay. I can see why my son got frustrated, though, so know that younger kids may need assistance, particularly the younger part of the 8-14 range stated.

This mech was such a fun build! It took our son about twenty minutes to put it together. It feels like an action figure - it is able to be moved around so easily (arms/legs). Great design!Easy to understand instructions included.

Great looking mech that started off fun and promising. Until the missing parts in just the 5th step.Went to the sites "support" for "missing pieces" only to find out that their form fill out to get them sent to you is "over quota" and "This form has exceeded its allocated quota.". I take that to mean that they get a lot of missing parts tickets and cant keep up, or that they dont answer at all. Sent an email to their "info" address in hopes of getting some response, but nothing. So, the fun lasted all but 5 minutes. Now i'm out $37, stuck with 920+ unused pieces, and the sadness of Edgar Allan Poe on Christmas.Will change review if they EVER respond and I get the missing pieces. But judging from others similar experiences, I wont hold my breath....¯\_(ツ)_/¯
