Toys and Games Reviews of Super Structures 50 Model Building Set
Customer Review: Beautiful models, great fun (a bit brittle)
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this set as a birthday gift for my son, who's a graduate of 3 smaller K'NEX models. It was delightful for him - the models are big and look great, the learning curve is comfortable enough (as long as you can make your kid build the models in the presented order and not rush ahead to the rotating Space Needle...). There's also an educational value - we went online with Google Earth and flew to see an aqueduct, the pyramids, and so on.
It was great to see him develop as he progresses along the models - his shoulders are getting quite a workout as he has to make rods click into connectors sideways, which takes a nice effort - these are writing muscles as well, which is useful. The most fun was seeing him get creative - his Eiffel Tower Extreme Edition (complete with wheels and motor) is beautiful.
One comment I have is about the fragility of the pieces. It might be related to the way our case was stored and shipped (a lot of things happen to toys on the way to Israel), but we've already broken 4 connectors during the 2 weeks we have the toy - something that's never happened with our previous kits.
In short - highly recommended, a great value and a lot of fun.
