I purchased this product because of the sinister presence and overall menacingly wonderful style of the animal. Yet... (sighs) either the designer was drunk or it was never pieced together prior to boxing them up and shipping them out because they DO NOT FIT TOGETHER STRAIGHT OUT OF THE BOX OR WITH ANY KIND OF SIMPLE ALTERATION. Included is one little piece of sand paper which is a slap in the face because the makers are laughing while they imagine the user picking it up and attempting to tackle the MAJOR work ahead with just a little piece like that. There's also a wooden pick axe/hammer which can only be a novelty item because even with a real hammer you can't pound the pieces together. I had to use a belt sander and some of the joining gaps got too big and were not a secure fit. 62 pieces means over 100 connections to make bigger, what fun. After the frustration I did put it together but since some of the connections were now too big it wouldn't stand properly and kept falling over. I then had to use some cardboard spacers and wood glue with lousy results. My advice to any prospective buyer is purchase this product if you want to spend $80 on funny-shaped firewood.

I bought the small version for my nephew, and spent a whole afternoon filing away at the notches in each piece (which were way too tight) so that they could fit together as they should. I had to buy a metal file to do so because the sandpaper included in the set wasn't heavy-duty enough, and even with the metal file, I had to spend so much time making each notch larger that we could only assemble a third of the dinosaur during a two hour session.

This is a very educational product. Even some adults like it.I think this is a great product that kids can use and learn alot from it. Kids who are interested in dinosaurs can use this and they will learn and have fun at the same time.
