Why it works
It recreates the real launch: you work the mechanism and the rocket separates into three stages, as in the NASA videos. It was developed with NASA and ESA and comes with four tiny astronauts and an information plaque. Once finished it stays on display on the shelf, which also counts at ten.
Our verdict
Buy it for a child who already builds alone and dreams of space. If what they want is to play with what they build, the Creator pirate ship is the better choice.
They will like it if
- they ask about rockets and planets
- they already build LEGO without help
- they like displaying what they build
Bear in mind
- it is more model than toy: once built it is looked at more than played with
- Technic calls for patience; a child who has only just turned 9 may need help
What's in the box
- 632 pieces
- Separates into 3 stages
- 4 astronaut nanofigures and an information plaque
- Developed with NASA and ESA
