Title: great toy with a few problems
Review: I bought this toy for my 4 year old grandson because I thought it was just like a tinker toy set from my own childhood. The canister arrived open in the mailing box with some pieces scattered loosely out of the canister. I put the pieces in the canister, which had a slightly damaged top. Nevertheless the child loved the toy. However, he is still a bit too young to build anything with out adult help. He loved playing with the sticks as "bad guys and good guys."The toy is different than the old tinker toy. The pieces are larger. The sticks are not as strong. When I tried to force a stick into the tight center hole of a round piece it broke.My grandson enjoys it now and the toy will grow with him as his abilities increase.
