This review is from: Erector Special Edition Train Construction Set (Toy)

I purchased this for a gift and was disappointed when I saw the plastic pieces and flimsy looking parts. After it was assembled some substitutions had to be made due to lack of parts. I would not purchase this set due to poor quality of parts, will not work with motor, and the high price. These sets also include 6 different pictures of what you can make but only include instructions for 4! The receiver wants to keep the gift against my advice. I will never buy any of the "new" erector sets from now on. I'll be looking for the original erector sets because the quality was there and you got what you paid for.
