fun concept, difficult build
on June 1, 2023
Posted by: damien valentine
from baltimore, ohio
i was gifted this a few months ago. ive read that this is a difficult build for kids, but im 20 and struggled myself. the gear mechanism broke halfway through my build the first time by bursting through the base, so i had to start over, and upon further building, i realized i am also missing a piece completely. its a yellow 1x1 brick with a plus shaped hole, to use for rod placement. i can't even finish my build until i get a new one, i am pretty frustrated. its fun to build when i am doing it, but not fun when things are breaking constantly. a tip for those who struggle with the grass breaking: make sure the leaf corners are tucked in so theyre not pushing against the walls, thats what broke mine constantly.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Terrible design, looks good on a shelf
on February 7, 2024
Posted by: Eric_H
Horrible design. If you try to go strictly by the book, it will explode when you turn the crank. You need to redesign the pieces around the conveyer belt, and remove pieces from the head and neck area before it will function without falling apart, and the crank handle still comes apart when you crank it more than a couple times.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Fun for all ages!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Easy for all ages with a bit of guidance on the challenging parts of the build. This was an exciting build from the beginning to the end. It was very enthralling to see how the gears all allowed for the motion of Pikachu.

Looks really cool!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is actually really cool looking once it’s all built. The pieces are all separated and the instructions were fairly easy to follow. What was really great was an included tool that helps you take off pieces if you make a mistake. It makes it so much easier to fix small issues. The figure has some really cool little details that make this look amazing.

Super cool!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My 11 year old daughter had a blast building Pikachu! There were a LOT of pieces, but that did not deter her. It was a process, which makes it all part of the fun, that this isn’t something that’s done in 1 day and that’s it. She did have some trouble with the mechanism part and getting Pikachu to animate, but once she got it it was really cool! She can’t wait for other Pokémons to come out.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Tough Build for Younger Kids
on July 16, 2022
Posted by: brkeju58
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] If I remember correctly, this toy is suggested for ages 12+, yet my daughters (8 / 10) attempted this with gusto. You see, they are experts in building sets from another popular brick-building brand and even construct set outside of the suggested age range.
However, faced with difficultly snapping pieces together and even more difficulty taking pieces apart, they quickly gave up and sought the input from Dad. As a frequent toy brick builder myself, I can confidently say that this was a difficult toy to put together. Pieces did not fit together easily and the mechanics of the rotational pieces are very rough. Upon trying to rotate the mechanism arm, Pikachu's front legs ultimately fall off as there seems to be pressure applied at the shoulder.

Pikachu

Posted by: Mega Pikachu
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great toy, would definitely buy , but the piece fitment could be a little better. Definitely a fun project to do with my 11 year old daughter. The instructions were great and easy to follow. Also looks great to display when its completed.
