Review on ESALINK Dinosaur Dinosaurs: Realistic and Educational Toy Set by Jason Cho

Revainrating 2 out of 5

It's difficult to assemble.

This is a model set that you CANNOT give to a child and tell them to have fun with them. Parts are difficult to assemble and many parts are severely deformed. The material is soft, like plastic. It allows you to give a little. But if a box of parts just falls there, the finer parts will be completely deformed. The worst are the ribs. They were a bunch of bent pieces. I was able to assemble it but the chest area looked terrible. I ended up gluing each rib to the table for over a week. When I reassembled the model, the edges were better, but still not straight. Although much better. The body cannot hold together on its own and gets stuck on the stand. The body bends and the parts detach. In the end I glued great. I don't recommend kids to use super glue, otherwise they will likely stick to the model themselves. After everything was glued together, it could stand well. I was able to leave the head unglued on the body so the ball joint in the head can be rotated to any angle. Model images on Revain are very misleading. It looks like it has been painted the mottled color of the stone you see when you look at fossils in a natural history museum. Instead, it's a strange yellowish color. The description even says something about paint, but no paint is included in this set. Generally a disappointment. Too much work went into building it. It immediately stopped being funny. From color to curved details. Putting everything together took far too long. It's not for kids and I'm not sure many adults will like it.

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • Useless features
