This 480 piece K’NEX kit includes both large and small flake-like parts. It also has thick and thin rods, plus some rods that connect the big and small flakes together. These special pieces aren’t in every K’Nex set. As with the other K’Nex sets, you can easily assemble some crafts with actual moving parts. In this case, the rotor blades can rotate, just like blades of a real helicopter.
The kit comes with a big storage box, handy for keeping your unfinished creations safe. You can put your half-made toy in it and finish it later.
Like other K’Nex sets, these pieces lock together well. You can easily take apart your creations and build something new. The regular K’Nex pieces are sturdy, so your crafts can handle lots of play. The mini K’Nex crafts are a bit more delicate. This 480 piece K’NEX kit includes pieces of both sizes.
While the crafts can be big, some pieces, especially the small ones, are tiny. That’s why K’Nex can be risky for very young kids who might swallow the pieces accidentally. It can also be a bit tricky for little kids to put together. That’s why it’s recommended for kids aged 7 and older.
