how many pieces is this kit? Would it be challenging for a 26 year old?

I don't remember exactly how many pieces the kit had but it was pretty simple to put together. My boyfriend is 21 and he put it together without a problem.

no bro i'm 18 and it was easy, the only thing that you need to be careful with is the head assembly.

Hi. Probably 2-3 depending on if you like to assemble stuff. I thought it was pretty easy.

Looks pretty much like a perfect fit. Went to a couple of advanced six and seven year olds. Probably a bit young but they love it. Might work better for older emerging craftsmen. Jewelry kit has lots of items that can be but together any way you like. Excellent choice. Best of Luck, Charles

Not overly difficult. An extra pair of hands with the heavy work is helpful. One to two hours depending on your having everything ready to go and familiarizing yourself with all the parts before starting.

I think the minimum age is 8 yrs, but it really does depends on the child's level of interest. It's not an "instant gratification" activity. The set contains a few projects that will take many hours to assemble. However, they at very fun and countless original designs can be invented depending on where your imagination takes you. :)

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 Grandson got his first set at age 8; now ten still loves getting them. Doesn't understand the electronics but likens it to putting LEGOs together. I'm sure he will be using the kits for many years probably more as he gets older and starts to experiment with elcetricity and electonics. As one critique stated; really not as many unique things to make as advertised.

I bought it for an 8yr old but at the last minute decided to hold on to it for another year - there were so many pieces and thought my 8 year old might be too overwhelmed. Depends on your kid and their organization skills. Will give it as a gift this year.

I have this kit and its beautiful. I believe there is approximately 150 parts with many of them very small and very fragile. So be very careful when you are removing them from the sprues. Good luck and happy modeling

I think that you could start with this. Just be careful and take your time, have patience, and have fun with it. It is difficult on some parts, but what models aren't ? There is much more difficult models out there but I would say this is fairly easy.

Hi Spencer, My son who is 13 bought this to put together. He has really enjoyed it but it is a lot of parts. I think you would enjoy it as long as you have a space to build it where you can leave it and go back to it. It is very time consuming. Good luck!

I don't know, but I'm guessing not. I don't think there are as many pieces as there would be if you combined all the kits. But, I think that you could make all the things that you could make in the other kits. You would just have to do one thing at a time. It's a GREAT set - incredibly educational and fun for the kids!

I'm an 83 year old woman and I'd like to have more of the kits, but I don't know about the lower age limit.

There are several pieces Melissa, I would assess how old the kid is and also you may want to look for something else because you need so many other things to do a lot of the experiments.

I think it is challenging and fun for all ages. I have given it a whirl or two and I'm in my 40's, though it was purchased for my son;)

Actually it's geared for older kids. Example I have it to two of my grand daughters both turning 11 and they were able to do it and made bracelets by the end of the day. BUT my younger grand daughter got hold of it and made a mess of the kit.

My 7 year old cousin was able to assemble some more simple k'nex, but I ended up doing this one myself. The instructions can get kinda confusing if you don't follow them closely; a 6 year old could definitely help though.
