nanoblock - Pokémon - Gengar, Pokémon Series Building Kit

So, the product itself, if official, is super cool. The thing about this charmander too is that the tail is a clear plastic. the fake ones will most of the times not even give you clear plastic (too expensive to make?) They come in a light blue pouch, are officially licensed by Nintendo, and the colors are indeed vibrant. Also, the official ones don't come with a gray "platform". Kawada sells official display platforms and crystal cases if you want to do that.Watch out for the fake sellers, they'll send you the cheap iBlock or the LOZ ones with the bad coloring and cheap plastic- if it happens REPORT them!It's tough buying these because you don't know if you'll get a fake or legit one since they're all imported from Japan, so for now you kind of just have to deal with the fact that you may get a fake. Just report them to Amazon so they get removed and, hopefully, all the fake sellers will be eventually removed if we all pitch in.

Pretty quick build, finished it in probably around 30 minutes, but I really enjoyed it and this set was way more worth it than anything I could get from LEGO for $10.I wouldn’t recommend this set to kids, as the pieces are itty bitty, but for me as an adult I really enjoyed building this and it was a good challenge. It was a lot more advanced than anything LEGO puts out, which I consider a big + since I finish those sets extremely quickly, and there’s no fun in doing something easy.People with bigger fingers may need to use tweezers, but I have tiny hands and easily complete this set with no tools. They also included plenty of extra pieces in case a piece got lost, but I didn’t lose any. So long as you’re careful they are not hard to keep track of and probably won’t hurt your foot as much should you end up stepping on one…Also, it’s adorable! Totodile is my favorite starter and I’m really glad I have my own little Totodile now :)

So, I didnt think this would be HUGE, but I was very surprised with just how small this is. This is 90 tiny pieces, so it says. I havent counted.I planned for this to be a chridtmas gift for my 5yo son, but it seems it will be a stocking stuffer instead. I feel like for the price, we really should get more..

I definitely recommend this to anyone that loves Pokémon. Even if you don’t, it’s very entertaining to put these together! I am obsessed with nanoblocks. This is a legit product from the actual Japanese nanablock company. I am so happy with my purchase. If you build it correctly there should be no balance issues whatsoever! If people are saying it’s unbalanced, it’s 100% not due to the product but the assembly.

Despite coming from the far East, the item arrived rather quickly. This was a gift for my son, due to his love of Pokemon as well as different types of puzzles and puzzle-related items. You will almost always have extra pieces for some reason, which drives my son nuts (its so funny, lol). But, once its finished he is so proud of himself and those microscopic pieces (and THEY ARE, lol) come together and really makes the character come to life. Great gift, but make sure the intended recipient has patience...and a pair of tweezers.

Bought this for myself as I am a big Eeveelution fan, putting it together took maybe an hour in total the directions were pretty simple and easy to understand. It looks so adorable next to my Pokémon figures and my amiibo collection! I have small hands so I had little difficulty working with the small nanoblocks. My advice for anyone who has bigger hands and thick fingers would be to try and get a pair of tweezers that can also be used for legos and other things that require precise detail to avoid frustration. I love my Eevee Nanoblock set and I am planning on getting the Jolteon, Flareon and Vaporeon sets eventually. Also be extra careful if you try and buy nanoblocks from anyone but Amazon, chances are if you buy from someone else you have a chance of getting the knock off nd lower quality versions. My advise for Nanoblock shopping? Always buy directly from Amazon, your guaranteed to get the real Kawada Nanoblocks every time.Update July 19,2020. A friend went and suprised me with the Jolteon/Flareon and Vaporeon sets, and they were as much fun to build as the Eevee was!! Looking forward to when I can get more of these amazing Nanoblocks! The 4 I have look utterly adorable together and I can't help but smile when I look at them sitting on the shelf with my Amiibo collection! 🧡🧡🖤🖤

These are definitely different than the brick toys we all know and love. My 8yo needed a lot of help with the VERY tiny pieces, and the bricks don't stay together as well as the big name we know. I ended up super gluing it together when we were done to keep it from falling apart.That being said, this thing is adorable, and my daughter loves it. She's already asked if there are any more like it.She loves the big brand of interlocking brick toys, and she loves pokemon, so this was a home run. Just be prepared, this IS a cheap knockoff, which is reflected in the quality.But for the price, for a kid who loves pokemon and interlocking brick toys, it's great.

I just had to get myself one of these since I just love Pikachu. :) I had no problem building this little Pikachu. The dimensions listed on Amazon is the size of the package, but the actual size of this figure is no more than about 2-ish inches tall. Apparently there were also extra pieces included and instruction were understandable. Definitely wouldn't recommend giving this to someone under the age of 13 to build. This also isn't a toy because the pieces will come off if you handle it roughly, (cough-cough KIDS).

Love it :)Gengar is very happy at my desk with my old (pokemon red era) gengar figurine. (Funny to see how the colouring changed over the years)."Nanoblocks" are interesting. I won't hold it against their marketing too much for using the buzzword 'nano' for anything remotely small (let's be honest, they're milliblocks lol). They're a bit fiddly and I imagine people will lose pieces, especially the '1' square bits, but the design has been well made and there's good structural support when it's completed.I had a lot of fun building it up. The packaging and contents are well presented and you get a lot of spare pieces provided just incase :)The figurine builds to something like 4cm deep by 5cm high and wide and is gengar's lovely plum purple colour (rather than the almost dark lilac in the picture).Thinking about getting a squirtle in the not-too-distant future, mewtwo looks appealing, but i'd like to see a wider range to choose from :)

I nievely expected this to be Lego blocks size. They're are the definition of nano blocks, they're tiny. I enjoyed building it. Instructions were a little hard to follow but once I got my head around it I was fine. Love my little Eevee

Only one item received, this is NOT a box of six as advertised. Returning for refund.

I love nanoblocks, and it's Charizard! It's a present for my husband and he loves pokemon too, so, win-win!
