    {Holiday Gift Guide} Superstructs Review (& Giveaway Ends 12/20)

    By 101 Comments

    ABOUT:

    Superstructs, vibrant plastic rod and connector style construction toys, is now creating customized kits perfect for the holidays or birthdays that you can personalize with your child’s name. With more than 24,000 possible combination’s, it’s easy to customize a kit to a child’s taste. After choosing which Superstructs sets to include, which start at just $9.99, customize the box with the child’s name and the occasion. It’s that simple.

    The kits have already caught the attention of industry award programs, most recently winning a prestigious Fall 2010 Parents’ Choice Recommended Award. The kits also won two awards from Dr. Toy: 100 Best Children’s Products and 10 Best Creative Products for 2010.

    MY THOUGHTS:

    I got the chance to customize a kit with three models inside.  First, you choose up to three models to include ranging from a Motorcycle to Jet to Forklift to Dragster.  There are eight choices to select from and each model specifies the number of pieces it includes and displays a picture.  After you choose your models, you customize the kit with your child’s name which is displayed on the box.  It is super easy to do and it packages everything in a nice box for your child.  I love that I was able though to get  a few different models and didn’t have to stick with one style – I got the Race Car, Dragster, and Forklift. Since the sets were so big (a total of 256 pieces), my kit was split into two boxes.  You can also choose the box design, I chose a Christmas pattern.

    My sons are in love with this kit and its pieces.  They have been on a building spree for a few days now and I think what really is fun for them is that they have never played with pieces like this before.  They are used to blocks and these pieces are all different sizes and colors.  As far as them building the models go, they are not too good at that yet but the illustrated instructions definitely help and my son likes to get the pieces for my husband to build it for him.  These toys also bring me back to a similar toy I had a child and loved!  The pieces also snap in pretty tight so the toys you build don’t fall apart!  My sons think building with these is fun and silly and keep asking for them!

    Want just one of the models?  You can Customize a Kit with just one model.  Kits start at just $9.95 plus S&H.  Other than a custom kit, if you want to buy just sets of pieces to build you can also do that!  Superstructs has sets like the Big Builder which gives you everything you need to build a fully functional fork lift, dump truck, crane, or utility truck with the plans enclosed.   There is a Flight Set, Wacky Machines and more!  There is even a super adorable pink set for girl called Pinklets – The Fairy Garden.  The possibilities are really endless with all the different pieces!

    BUY IT: Use code “KQPPB5PB” to save 40% off of one of the company’s best-selling kits, the BIG Builder, a 126-piece set for ages 4-11, normally $41.95. The code expires 1/31/2011.

    WIN IT: (1) US winner will receive a Custom Kit from Superstructs, where you pick up to 3 individual sets.
