Latest in the toys we've tested out is plastic model kits by Revell. My son (9) has always been a fan of building sets, and has come to really enjoy these HALO Build and Play model kits by Revell. They are greatly detailed, come with easy-to-follow directions, and is easy for him to snap together to complete the builds. The HALO themed UNSC Warthog and UNSC Pelican are as fun to play with as they are to build. Once built they become great toys that my children play with, it even has pieces that have lights and sound! Great idea for gifts for those who like to build.
The Revell's SnapTile Build and Play collection replicate their in-game counterparts down to the body, detailing and weaponry. For Halo fans it is details they can appreciate. For children who are interested in getting hands on, building these are lots of fun. They require no extra tools to supplies. You simply follow the step-by-step directions and snap together the pieces needed. As I mentioned my youngest little boy couldn't wait for the final product, and he had fun playing with it once his older brother finished. Of course parental guidance is always necessary with small pieces and small children. What's great is that the build can truly handle being played with. It doesn't unsnap out of place, in fact you must follow the directions carefully because if you snap 2 pieces that don't below together, you might have a problem. So, the advice from my son is to pay close attention, and enjoy the build. These model building kits even come with lights and sounds! Lots of fun, that is more than just a toy as you can build before playing. Other models in the line include Covenant Wraith, UNSC Scorpion.
