No, I think that would be fine. I gave it to 2 younger grandsons and it was to advanced for them.

I don't think too easy. There are enough modes (14) to make it fun.My son is 7 and I have to help him with the main body part especially and pushing some of the stiffer parts together.

I bought this for my 9 year old grandson who is "gifted" with building mechanical/electrical things. I think your 13 year old son would like it. I worked with my grandson to make sure he understood the directions. He loved it!

My 2 grandsons put it together ages 13 and 16, so i bet its a simple step that was missed,(like happens to all of us). Its worth the effort because mine has gotten a major beaten for almost a year and it is still like new.Good Luck

Yes. I've built the hardest ones for my six-year-old son but he can follow the instructions for the easier ones. The hard ones take a lot of time but are easy to follow.

My son is 8 years old. He haven't gotten that far yet. Sorry, It's still under construction.

Hi!This is a very challenging Chima set. My 6 yo grandson is experienced with these large sets and follows the instruction book very carefully page by page. His mother often sets the pieces out for him which makes it easier and on ocassion answers his question. I would start on an easier set unless the child has a lot of experience with more complex Lego sets and figures and has a lot of patience. Our grandson did complete this set with minimal help from his mother. He loves it.

My son is 5, and some times it is hard for him to assemble the models. I have latelly recognized that he enjoys better easier legos that are easy for him to manipulate and he builds much more creative things than if I get him "age appropiate or older kind of legos". The zoob legos are very nice, however some times it is frustrating for him that his creations break while he plays with them...

It's not terribly complex but a couple parts take a little force to put into place, the back panels & shoulders specifically. With some help the first time or so & if the child takes to this kind of thing (transforming toys) it should go all right. Again I think a 4 yr old will need some guidance at least at first. But this does not have a majorly complex transformation like some others. It also depends a lot on the individual child. It certainly will be an enjoyable toy though.

I think it would be a bit much for your 5 year old grandson, it has been quite a learning curve for me and challenging. it is also quite fragile. hope this helps.

I don't think it's too easy. It won't be difficult, but will keep an 8 yr. Old busy. There are creattive activities, i think an 8 yr. Old would like.

You can build different structures. It's easy for a child to do. Depending on age, might need a little help.Really a fun, creative toy.

Certainly the projects are appropriate for that age. My oldest is 3 1/2 but he is almost four feet tall. He just carried the whole workshop out of his bedroom and into the hall, lol. It is small, but he loves it. My friend's four year old girl loved playing with the tools too! I think it'll be fine.

I would not recommend it for under 7 years old. Lots of small pieces and can be intricate to assemble.

might be a little hard for him to snap the pieces together. and might not understand enough about "structure" to be able to build a car that holds together. It will depends on how much he builds with things already - blocks, legos. these are a bit trickier - b/c they are more like joints and can bend every which way vs. a blocks that are straight on top of each other. better for 5+

This is a complicated model. My son is fourteen and did it ok. I don't think kids too much younger could complete it.

I first gave these to my grandson when he was four. I have added to the set several times. He is six now, and his sister is now four. They build structures and play with them together. I would say that the peak ages are 5-7 because of the skill required in putting the pieces together. The older the child, the more intricate the building becomes. Personally, I really enjoy building with them too!

I think that your son would have fun with this because it is such an open ended activity. He can build things that will control the computer he built! I am using it with a class of 12 year olds of varying skills and they all love it.

He will get a ton of pleasure out of this toy. You will have to do all the work though..haha. The tower is very shaky, and you do need to monitor this. Once set up though, he will have hours, and hours of fun with it though, once he learns the release system. I think the Age 5 is recommendation is to set it up solo/change it.
