K'NEX Hi-Flyers 10 Model Building Set Review

K'NEX Hi-Flyers 10 Model Building Set
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This is a great set for younger builders. With varying degrees of difficulty in the 10 different models that can built with it its easy enough for the 5/6 year old to build on his own but also offers more challenging plans to test his growing abilities. The plane shown on the box was the first thing my son built. It was easy to put together and stayed together for him to be able to play with without any problems. With instructions to be able to build different airplanes, hang-gliders, parachutes (which looks like a hot air balloon to me)this set would be a definite hit with your little aviator!!
This set was provided to our family courtesy of K'Nex for review purposes but in no way has affected the above review, which is our own, honest feedback of the product!

LEGO Avatar Air Temple Review

We bought this for our 8 year old daughter. It requires a good deal of time to put together and will require Mom or Dad's help (in our case, both). This made the toy a good family activity and we were able to put it together sitting in the middle of the living room floor over the course of several nights. The lego mechanics used are neat and thought provoking. My daughter has enjoyed playing with the legos and uses her imagination to rearrange them to build different items around the temple. I would recommend a plastic storage box for the temple and its associated pieces, otherwise you will be finding them with your feet and vacuum cleaner. Do count on further family activities as you engage in Avatar vs. Fire Nation battles with your child. I only gave four stars because of the complexity of the directions. An older child (about 10) would be able to assemble this alone, but may not get as much enjoyment out of it. It is definitely a family fun activity that any Avatar fan will enjoy.

LEGO Star Wars: Ewok Attack (7139) Review

This interesting set has lots of nice things in it. First there's a cool catapult complete with two "rocks". The speederbike is a great addition and so is the hang glider. The speederbike has a scout trooper and the hang glider(which had wings which were hard to get on) is well made. My brother bought the AT-ST, and you can also fire the stones at it. I also think that speederbikes should be sold separately so you can have more fun. The Ewoks in the set rock! Buy this set today. *It's awesome*

K'NEX Education - Transportation Set Review

I like Knex in general, but I was very disappointed that this set only contains one battery operated motor. The description says three motors, but two of them are spring motors. For the price I expected a lot more. This set is over 4 times as expensive as the 425 pice value tub, but has less than 2 times as many pieces.
