I was impressed with the size, yet how simple a build. Every step was set up so there was no confusion how everything was placed. Was displeased with the quality co troll of the manual, as the third book had pages out of sequence, upside down, backwards, and step 18 appeared to be missing. But luckily I had the Lego Builder app and was about to smooth get through those issues.
Highly accurate build that was not to tedious. One downside would be that i had trouble with step 198 as the yellow technic pin didn't fit into the build. I did have to modify the piece to be shorter as it would not slot in. The remainder of the connections definitely made the build sturdy.
An amazing set. It's presence, quality, and look are more then I could've hoped. And for the price it is well worth it. Hoping we get more full fossil skeletons in addition to more fossil skulls down the line.
