Great Sphinx Egypt Building Blocks Set (2732Pcs) Famous World Architecture Educational Toys Micro Bricks for Kids Adults

Half sized (micro sized) LEGO like pieces. The smallest was a 1/16 inch cube. At times I had to use tweezers to move some of the smaller pieces. Definitely not for the beginner. Some of the diagrams needed careful study to do proper assembly. This was partly because some areas were hidden on the diagrams. I sometimes had to diassemble some areas when it was later became clear how something went together. Some of the subassemblies would easily fall apart until completely assembled. Nevertheless, I had a lot of fun over several days making this project.It was necessary to open all of the bags for the pieces, so expect to do extensive searching for some of the rarer tiny pieces. Everything was there, just sometimes hard to find. I strongly recommend using storage containers with lids for unassembled pieces as a spill is disastrous.

This is a wonderful and challenging build. If you’re looking for Lego-like handholding… look somewhere else. Get a good set of nano block tweezers and a magnifying glass before starting.Every step of the build is one layer of the Sphinx. There are components that are built up without support at the bottom. Carefully ensuring that these stay in place until you build high enough that they are fixed is important. This might take 6 or more levels.The instructions use outlines around pieces that might be confused for another part. This is nice, but CAUTION … the outlined pieces change with each step. You can easily get confused if you don’t pay attention.Locating all the parts needed for each step before starting that level is a must. Many times I had an extra part or was missing one, only to find that I’d missed a subtlety of the step.Build cautiously and with purpose, and I believe you will enjoy this set as much as I did!Have fun building!

This set came with thousands of pieces - a lot of pieces! But it also was missing around 500 pieces! This has been very frustrating for my son who eagerly looked forward to completing this. We have sent a request to TzFioy to get the missing pieces, but even if we do, I would still definitely not recommend this product

I enjoyed this build so much even though it was a bit difficult at times. The pieces fit snugly together and there were extra pieces for each type of piece. The directions were easy to follow but might be hard for beginners. The finished Sphinx looked great and was very colorful. Will buy more of this brand.

So far so good. I just started it about an hour ago.

I've never had a more fun build. Challenging at times, every block fit together perfectly and an abundance of extra pieces left over at the end. Not for beginners. End result looks great, better than great; the eyes are a little wonky though lol

I love the piece but difficult to get blocks together and follow instructions.

I bought this for my16 year old grandson who built it with his 19 year old sister. She wrote this review. “Very engaging and challenging set which took about 8 hours with two people working dedicatedly on it. The instructions were all in pictures and took a bit of brainpower to understand at times, but this only added to the enjoyment of the challenge. Can't decide if I should take away points or add for accuracy because the nose fell off a couple times...”
