Looks good.
Looks good, but the box quite small. I believe it was in description, I just didn't read that. Not opened as it's a present.

Truly Fantastic Tin!!
Truly fantastic tin, it's contents and tools kept our son so very quiet and focussed, we no longer realised he was in the house!! The pieces are small as are the tools, but they are perfectly sized for a 7 year old. The instructions were fairly tricky, our son was able to construct the toy through his mind's eye of where the pieces should go. He was absolutely over the moon with the results, as were we!! He cannot wait to build all the other models in the tin, he loves to dismantle and rebuild, so a perfect git.

Quite a sturdy little tin
Arrived really quickly. Quite a sturdy little tin. Did not inspect contents as it was a Christmas present for my grandson, however, intelligent as he is and as much as I felt he would enjoy building these, I did feel it was quite small and questioned whether the bits would be a bit too fiddly for him.

Made my 7 year old cry
The models look simple but are very difficult. The instructions are too small and very unclear.It quickly became clear the 7yr old would not stand a chance so I offered to do it for him.I did the plane first which was ok but the poor quality tools supplied and lack of locking washers / nuts means the model quickly fell apart as the nuts became loose leaving small parts around the house which are a danger to small children.I then had ago at the helicopter which asks you to bend many of the components to fit which is not ideal and there were parts missing. In the end I gave up without attempting the truck which led to crying from the boy.This is cheap rubbish.

Mini Mechanics Box
Bought as gift. Looks okay but a smaller tin than I was expecting. (I guess the clue was in mini).
