How durable or fragile are these toys? My 5yo nephew sometimes gets a hold of my other posables and he can be quite rough.

I would say it's durable. BUT for a 5 yr old, I doubt it.also the limbs come off naturally where joints are

I dont recommend these for kids. These are collector quality. There are alot of interchangeable parts to swap in and out n they are rather small. But if the kid does takes care of his toys, why not :)

Yeah I wouldn't risk it. These figures can break somewhat easily. These are meant for collectors and should be for displaying only. On the box it has "Ages 15 & UP." Plus they come with small parts (interchangeable hands, weapons). Great figures though, very poseable.

Not really sure but I believe the hands and feet pop out of place to change hands I never took mine out of the package and a figure that expensive I wouldn't let anyone under 10 touch it or get near it but that's just me

To be honest im not sure, they most definately are not meant to be handled roughly. It did fall of the self once& remained in tack.

Toddlers, no problems.. I think my children played with them until about7-8 yrs and had to jump on them to collapse them.

We've had them for almost a year now, not too long but awhile. My kids (2 &5) find some way to play with them a few times a week, not quite daily. They still get a lot of use and in many different ways. I highly recommend them. (They are very durable also. Still look and play like new!)

We have had some aggressive boys (9/10) in our group and so far so good. I do remind them not to pound on them. I have had them a few years and they have held up, but remember they are plastic.

I have a 5 yr old grandson that plays with mine and it does good with him and hes pretty rough when hes playing

My 2 1/2 year old grandson plays with them with his older brother and sister. The size of them could be a choking hazard for a child that age.The child would have to be well supervised.

Yes, very durable. My granddaughter is also 2, she isn't always gentle with things. It has a nice cover that comes already on it. It is sturdy, and built for little ones. We love it, and she enjoys playing with it daily. Great purchase.

So far they have held up. I am sure they must have been dropped at one time or another. If you have heard this, maybe try another brand. My grandsons have had them since December and haven't heard of any problems. If I hear of any, I will post it.

Ours broke. But to be fair we did get it for our 5 year old. I wouldn't suggest using it as a toy for a child.

Its a fun toy my nephew loves it. Its sturdy to last awhile on a kids rough handling. Great sounds.

I've used mine several times with my now 3.5 year old son, it hasn't broken yet. It isn't as stable as I'd like it to be, but he still plays with it as a toy even though I haven't travelled with him more than a handful of times.

They seem pretty durable. My child is autistic so he isn't the most gentle kid. We've had them for a few weeks now and he pulls them on and off -- so far they have held up great.

I bought that deluxe set for my 11 year old grandson and bought the simpler versions for my 4, 5, and 6 year old grandsons. I am sure that part of it is more complicated than others and it is a toy she can grow into gradually. I really have not checked how the kids are doing with these...they were Christmas gifts.

Really, I see them more as adult collectibles, because they are expensive, and they're also a bit on the fragile side. I would not recommend them at all for a very young child. The tail, for instance, easily comes apart into individual rings, and it would be easy to lose them or swallow them. They vinyl toys are less poseable, but far more durable.

I bought the OWI for a child who was a bit young for it....it is durable, but the child was too rough with it, and it did not survive all the abuse. I would suggest you wait until the child was at least ten before biving this "toy".

I would think they would be durable enough for gentle play. My grandson is going to use them to store his Football cards. I hope that this helps!

ABSOLUTELY!! I bought it for my 2 1/2 year old grandson, and that's the first thing he goes for when he's at my house. Plus, he has them at his own house, and is constantly playing w/ them. They are sturdy--no worries about parts breaking off, either.
