ZEPHYR TOYS - Mechanix Grand Pix Cars - 1 Review

My kid's latest favorite toy set is Mechanix, a plastic engineering construction set from Zephyr Toys. My hubby bought it from Pink Panthers shop(Check their Facebook page here - https://www.facebook.com/PinkPanthersindia) and gifted it to my kid with no special reason. My kid has more than 100 different cars from popular brands like Hot Wheels, Centy and Siku. I know that my hubby would not stop buying toys for my kid. He would not even put a break for it. So, I insisted him to buy some new activity toys for my kid to keep him engaged more time.

ZEPHYR TOYS  - Zephyr - Mechanix Grand Pix Cars - 1 Review:

It is very good toy for kids who love constructing little toy figures on their own. I feel that my kid has to grow a little more to construct on his own without any help. But he enjoys playing with the individual parts. He imitates repairing his cars and other vehicle toys with the tools like screw driver, spanner, nuts and bolts. It has totally 57 pieces and your child can create 4 different models of car with them.

There is a manual given along with the toy. It is quite clear and it is helpful to understand about the set.

Instructions were given in the manual clearly. My hubby told that he found it as little bit tough while constructing it for the first time. It took some time initially. My kid asked him to disassemble and reassemble many times. Now my hubby is quite convenient with it.

Overall Thoughts:

This is an ideal gift for boy children over 3 years. Children who love mechanical engineering and construction activities will surely love it. As the brand says it is definitely a first step for the children in the world of engineering. Even if they do not know how to construct, they will definitely like to play with nuts, bolts, screw driver and spanner. You can ask them to repair the other vehicle toys for fun.  

My Rating: 5/5.
