Review on Unlock Extra Style with Tech Deck Sk8Shop Bonus Styles by Nick Palacio

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Caveat: Enough detail to make 3 decks out of 6

I really want to give this Sk8shop bonus set a star but in my rush to buy a last minute Christmas present for my 5 year old I forgot Read the fine print and purchased exclusively as seen on the front of the box. I've known about tech decks for years and always thought they looked like a cool toy, but I didn't actually have a baby until Christmas. old enough to go along with this kind of gift. Just looking at the packaging I see 6 decks - one already built - 5 wheel sets, 2 carts and a big red "6 boards included" sign. This led me to the conclusion that my 5 year old would have 6 full decks to play with on Christmas morning. It was only when I opened the package that I discovered that I had been scammed and that "6 boards per set" does not mean the same as "6 full decks per set". Looking back at the packaging I really felt like they were trying to make me believe I had enough parts to make 6 complete decks. What I found was enough trucks to only build 2 extra decks and not 5. I really think this is a cool toy and my kid loves the 3 decks to actually play with but I can't help it, than feeling disadvantaged by the packaging. and it pisses me off.
