I picked up something that looks exactly like this from a teacher convention in 1990 and it finally broke. So I ordered this one and was somewhat disappointed. It's exactly the same except for the dome. The first one had a sturdy plastic dome with several magnifying glasses built in. This one has a very, very thin plastic dome (like, blister packs that toys come in) and no built-in magnifying glasses (the cap for the hole in the lid magnifies, though). Still, our kids have tons of fun catching bugs and putting them into the Critter Carnival. If it had the original sturdy hard plastic dome, I'd have given 5 stars.

2.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful concept, poor execution, November 13, 2010

This review is from: Insect Lore Critter Carnival (Toy)

I was so excited to get this for my daughter who loves bugs. We were very disappointed however to find that the dome on this is made of very cheap plastic. We actually looked in the recycle bin to make sure that I had not thrown the "real" dome away with the wrapping, but no such luck.

I would love to rate this higher as my daughter really loves it, but it is honestly just too flimsy.

I work at a school and brought this item there and everyone was stopping by and watching the beetles. It is very cool. My sons loved it at my home as well. The bugs actually climbed on the carnival equipment!Vety easy to feed them and to clean.
