My son, 8, love legos, ultimate dot to dot, crosswords, really hard mazes, origami, all thing puzzle like and requiring multi-step directions. We had a book of paper monsters and I was looking for another like it. These are even BETTER. He really enjoys make making them, and is teaching me all about the different connections. These are very interesting, have good directions, look great when they are done and are very entertaining. Adults will enjoy and be challenged as will kids. I would recommend this for age 10+ unless you have a kid like mine that is super focused and loves this kind of thing. Beautiful illustrations on the characters. Well worth it!
Love it! My 4 year old grandson & I made all 25 robots. It was a bit advanced for him, but the pieces were perforated so he was able to get them out of the pages and help with the gluing. The robots are designed by different people, so some of the instructions are clearer than others.My grandson loved the bio stories accompanying each robot. He was pleased as punch when they were all done and we lined them up across the floor & took photos of him with his Bots.
Just look at the list of the artists in this book! There are so many killer toys in this collection from the genre's best. Get this now! Get 2, keep one intact and use the other for the toy builds. That's what I'm going to do.
We like paper toys a lot in our house because the kids can get a new monster or robot whenever they want. This book is cool but the paper is not as easy to fold as the paper toy monsters book. Also, there isn't a single person writing the instructions. Each designer writes their own so it is tough to follow the directions from robot to robot.
Great product. But I wish it had an age on it. My nephew was excited until he tried to put one together himself. Way too complicated with tiny pieces for a child of eight attention span. I wanted paper robots he could feel good about building then playing with. Perfect idea = bad toy.
These are'rt for the faint of heart when it comes to small paper-craft. But the end results are amazing.
My 7 yr old loves this book but it is bit difficult for him right now so I have to help him a bit. The robots are pretty awesome when done. Instruction are pretty easy to follow.
Fairly difficult and the instructions are not clear. Certainly need patience and a hot glue gun.
