My 5 year old is wildly into TMNT, he received this as a birthday present. The set is really cool to play with ONCE we got it put together. As other readers stated the mountain doesn't stay put well. The truck is awesome and so cool how the lid lifts and the trunk opens. But...be ready to spend most of the afternoon on the floor putting together. Our set had pieces missing and then some odd ones left over. Luckily we had other block sets to gather pieces from, or we would have had a very disappointed 5 year old.

I bought this toy for my 6-year-old for his birthday. First of all, I do have a spatially gifted child, and he couldn't build this set without a lot of help. The pieces don't stick together well, and the diagrams were not as clear as I would have liked. There are a lot of small pieces which could have been combined into a larger piece to make it a little easier. I would say this is a better toy for 8 and up, rather than 6 and up. The ooze means it needs to be played with on a table or hard surface, but if it falls, be prepared to spend quite a bit of time putting it back together. I did end up with some odd pieces, but that isn't a problem for me.

I liked the concept, and I do feel that there is educational value to putting the toy together, so it's not a terrible toy. I wouldn't recommend it for younger kids, however, as there are lots of tiny pieces. This is also not a good Mega Bloks piece for the easily frustrated (kids OR parents). The stickers that go over more than one piece on the truck annoy me too, as they can rip if the truck comes apart. It's not the worst purchase I've made, but I won't be buying anything else from the Mega Bloks Turtles line.

This toy is boring, doesn't match lego toy so can't combine building sets. Truck does not continue to move when pushed. Wheels do not allow corners.

My child received this for Christmas and was so excited because he loves the Ninja Turtles. When we went to put it together, I found this to be the most frustrating toy ever! First of all, any toy with 290 very small pieces is really not something that the average 5 year old (yet alone an average 10 year old) can handle so this is definitely a toy that an adult needs to put together - if they can! My husband who can put ANYTHING together washed his hands of the whole project after an hour and a half of unsuccesfully trying to stick the pieces together. The design is bad, the pieces don't stick together (maybe they're too small???), and the diagram is 28 pages long! I give this toy 2 thumbs down!

When I recieved this Mega Bloks set as a birthday present, I was excited because I LOVE the Ninja Turtles! This set takes a little while to build, but my only pet peeve is that the white section on the left is ONE PIECE. It is difficult to make the bulky piece stick to the main plate, because there aren't many places it can attatch. The Battle Shell van is amazing! You can put the Ninja turtles in the back or in the driver's seat. Or, you can set them on the top with a Foot Soldier or two and have a high speed battle seen on top of the van! It is a fun set, and the ooze is fun. A word of advice about the ooze: Don't break it up into pieces! I have another set with ooze, and I would always pinch it and pull it and break it up, and now it doesn't work very well, because instead of being one gelatinous mass, it's a bunch of smaller pieces that get stuck to your fingers, set, carpet, ANYTHING! So just be careful!
