We got off to a great start but the positivity didn't last....My girls usually really love building things like this but lost interest quite quickly which is such a shame....
The parts were hard to fit together as they were quite stiff and some parts took a bit of forcing to join together...
The instructions were quite hard to understand....Even I struggled a little....They were in black and white and kept switching the colours they were using which made it hard to work out if we should be using different parts....
We (mostly me) worked through it and then when I had nearly finished the girls showed more interest....
The end result was brilliant....The flashing lights looked so cool.....

I think this is really limited for play.....I was slightly disappointed when I realised the car cannot be played with or pushed. The wheels don't turn and the battery pack is quite big....For older kids using it as a light siting on a bedroom shelf it would be brilliant....
The kit came with the instructions for the Indy car but there are 11 other things which can be created using this kit....The manuals are available to download via the Laser Pegs website....
This is available to buy for £32.45 from Amazon.
We were sent this Laser Pegs kit free of charge for our review.....All thoughts and opinions are our own....
I really like the concept but what a shame that you can't actually really play with it! I think as you say good for a shelf in a room rather than to be used a toy.

These are so cool! It is a shame it can't be pushed though! I think Cameron would love this. I would have to build it for him though as he would get frustrated.
