Automoblox Mini C11 Nebulous Aqua Blue, 4.75" x 1.75"

The pieces fit perfectly, there’s somewhat indestructible, and if you have more than one car, you can mix and match and have a blast. I got these for a nephew because they provided my son with so much joy, and me with some sweet memories.

Because the point of Automoblox is to mix and match parts from different vehicles, I ordered three different models: (*) Automoblox Mini C12 Cipher Sportscar (*) Automoblox Mini T15L Grizzly Pickup Truck (*) Automoblox Mini C11 Nebulous Sedan These three are shown together on the boxes for each one, leading me to believe that they are intended to be used to mix and match pieces. More on this below, but the car parts don't match well with the truck parts because the wheels aren't at the same level. In general, they are all at least _decently_ well made, but every one of them has some issue with quality that makes it not a very good toy. The biggest issues to me are rough wood patches and misaligned parts (and wheels that don't touch the ground) because of improper placement of pegs. Only one of my three, the truck, rolls very well. Also, none of them are nearly as shiny as the pictures indicate that they are, and the rubber tires aren't shiny at all. Things that I like about the designs: (*) With the three models that I got, every one of them is color coded so that you can tell which model the pieces are for when you've taken them apart and have a number of different model parts in front of you. The tires, posts, and top pieces all have the same color for a given model...and each model has a different color. That's awesome. The wheels are not color coded, though, so they aren't distinct if you take the rubber tires off (*) They Minis are a good size for toy, being about 4.5 to 5 inches in length. They are easy to grasp and small enough to move around quickly (*) You can put multiple center sections together to create a longer wheel base. Granted, it looks kind of junky because of the misalignments...but it's cool that it allows for that Something that I don't like related to the design in general: (*) Although advertised as being meant to mix and match, the truck and car parts aren't really designed for that. Yes, they will lock together, but the designs have the wheels at different distances from the center line...so they vehicles aren't level if you actually combine truck and car parts Things that I don't like that are related to poor quality control: (*) Two of the models that I got have sizeable rough wooden patches on them where they cut out material to make a feature but failed to sand it down. One is bad enough that I think a kid could get a splinter from it (*) Two of the models (different two than above) don't roll easily because one or more wheels sticks and/or doesn't touch the ground (*) There is generally some misalignment in the three segments of any given vehicle, with the C12 being the worst with noticeable steps in between. That gets worse when mixing and matching pieces from different vehicles In general, I don't recommend these.

I don’t write many reviews but these are amazing! They are well designed and easy for our 3.5 year old to take apart and put together. He has spent hours rearranging the parts. One is fun but you can only take it apart and put it back the same way with two you can do some modifications but three really allow them to create for a longer time. These are amazing!!!

My son loves to play with these. Found one at a garage sale and he is hooked! He loves to switch out the parts.

As the point of these vehicles was to be able to take them apart and reattach items from one to another, I already had one of the vehicles, so I got this second one when it was offered so that I could see how easy it was to do that. Very easy except for the roof/canopy which I did have trouble with. I could have been having trouble due to arthritis in my hands, but I think it was more the fact there was nothing to grab onto to pull it off. However, I did get everything pulled apart and had fun putting pieces back together in my own way. I think children would have fun with these, especially if they get enough vehicles so that they a good inventory of pieces to make their designs. I liked the smooth wood with no splinters and depending on the child using them, the may last to the point that their children will be able to use them as well. Even though I no longer play with toys and my children are adults, I still like seeing well built toys.

Grandson 5 yrs) found then on Amazon. He loves them.

Comes apart into too many pieces and doesn’t stay together well. Great for an organized kid who can keep track of it all, but for kids like mine who play wrecklessly these are not good at all.

These small modal cars come in a box that measures 5.75” X 3.5” X 2.5”. Very easy to wrap, if you’re giving as a gift. They are made in China. Several modals are available, and you can mix-and-match the parts to create your own “special” vehicle. There are twelve pieces, so they are quite easy to put together. But they start the child’s learning to build processes. They are part wood and part plastic. If you wish you can also “decorate” them as you wish.
