Fascinations Metal Earth Brooklyn Bridge 3D Metal Model Kit

It took some time to complete, but after I finished it was worth the effort. It looks very realistic. It even served to really instill in my memory the look of the Brooklyn Bridge. Now if I see the Brooklyn Bridge on TV or in pictures, without a doubt and instantly I know it is the Brooklyn Bridge. Be careful with some pieces, they can bend easily. Also, for the flags at the top of the bridge, be careful after these are attached. I would bend them while trying to finished up the rest of the bridge. They are not broken and nothing looks off about them, but be careful, incase you bend them too many times.

So tiny it is impossible to put together. And the pieces broke easily. My son, who is a life long builder of things, gave up. Very disappointing waste of money.

I bought the lighthouse and Black Pearl for wedding cake toppers (don't ask!) and was afraid I'd have to pay someone to put them together. One night I sat down and started in on the lighthouse. It was terrific fun, and I am SO addicted to these models! I tend to have attention issues, so have to pace myself, make sure I'm focused, and not too tired (sorry, ferryboat, that half of you is inverted). These are like Puzzles. I URGE you to get a pair of jewelry-making bent-nose needle nose pliers. They make all the difference in the world. These are not for children to make or play with, they are adult pieces (14 up). I've also done the tractor (read ahead, duh!) and only made one small error I couldn't fix, and will challenge myself w/ the Taj Mahal someday soon. Excellent quality, use a tray to work on and keep a magnet handy if you should drop any of the tiny pieces (the give extras of the wee ones). I also began using a pair of old tweezers to help remove pieces from the sheet. Fabulous fun!

Very intricate needs patience to put together

Please don't waste your money buying this product, you will not be able to put it together and you may cut or lost a finger trying to build it. It is impossible to build with millions of small tiny metal pieces. This product is bad y'all

I have built quite a few Metal Earth models. This one is particularly challenging to put together. Requires some skill and patients. Very good detail and looks great!

I love these things! They are time consuming but the end result is worth it. I visited New York with my family and I wanted to make something to remember it by. This is my second model and they are both pretty cool.

This product and all of the Metal Earth items are not toys. They are an intricate model that takes patience and skill to complete. They were not FUN to put together but challenging. The result s very satisfying and the models striking. Do not give this to a child or anyone who has a short attention span or gets frustrated easily. They are fragile before you start building, during the building process and after. The metal bends very easily and care must be taken to properly shape those pieces that require shaping. The right tools are essential. You will need fine needle nose pliers, tweezers, straight edges for bending, a shear cutter to remove the pieces from the metal sheet and a good magnifying lamp. The effort will be worth it.

viene en un formato muy curioso, es un sobre de carton con las laminas dentro. era para un regalo pero me han dicho que las piezas no se pueden desencajar a mano, que hacen falta herramientas (Por esto no pongo 5 estrellas), en otras opiniones de un producto similar lei que pinzas y pequeños alicates. aun asi me parece precioso

So fun to build but , very intricate. Tiny pieces & tweezers work best 👌

A la réception du produit j'ai été surpris pas la taille. Le produit est vraiment petit et le montage n'est pas simple. J'ai cassé une ou deux pièces car pour l'assembler il faut plier les petites "pattes" sur les éléments. Pas très facile. Je ne recommande pas pour des enfants.

Molto complicato da fare

Kept the kids occupied.
