Paraphrased from public owner reviews. Each one links to where it was posted.
Given as a prize to a student who improved most in reading. He was thrilled and was building it with friends in under 10 minutes.
A nice little kit to build with a young daughter. They glued the ears and feet on afterward because she wanted to play with it.
