    {Holiday Gift Guide} Arc-A-Tek’s Building Characters Review (& Giveaway Ends 1/3)

    By 295 Comments

    ABOUT:

    After achieving award-winning success with their Superstructs line of building toys, WABA Fun launched three new styles called Arc-A-Teks.  Superstructs are vibrant plastic rod and connector style construction toys that feature safe, durable EVA foam panels that ‘pop’ between the rods and joints.  The new line of Arc-A-Tek’s is a Superstructs line designed for preschool and kindergarten aged kids.

    Arc-A-Teks Features:

    • Each set contains 40-42 connector pieces, enough to build two complete Arc-A-Teks simultaneously.
    • Includes collector cards that reveal each Arc-A-Tek’s name, details and a secret code to unlock an additional character online.
    • Designed for ages 3+
    • Three sets available:  Earth, Sea, and Sky – total of six characters to build.

    MY THOUGHTS:

    We have the original Superstructs but I will say they are a little complicated for my son’s to follow the directions.  They do love their original Superstructs but they don’t build the cars that actually correspond with the kits, they more so just build whatever they’d like.  With Arc-A-Tek’s they can follow the directions a little easier and the models you build are made with fewer pieces.  My sons really get a kick out of seeing what the creatures look like and then playing with them that way!  (They are pretty cute as shown below!)  You can take them apart then and build whatever you want and when done store the pieces in the nice plastic bucket it comes with!  I also love that they bucket is small enough that I think I am going to bring it with us to a restaurant or similar next time to occupy my boys!  The pieces also snap together very easily, although taking some of them apart is a little tough, but I think the pieces just need to be broken in a little bit more!    The kit also comes with two trading cars featuring the characters you build and easy to follow picture instructions.

    BUY IT: You can find Arc-A-Teks at Toys R Us priced affordable at $9.99.

    WIN IT: (1) US winner will receive their choice of the three Arc-A-Teks styles:  Earth, Sky, or Sea.

      I am fairly sure that my girls would want the “sea” version. They are in love with mermaids and dolphins. ha

      It would have to be the Sea Arc-a-teks, she just loves acquariums and sea creatures. Thanks for the giveaway.

      to be honest, the sets look fairly similar as far as what they figures look like, but let’s go with Earth… look like great fun!
