Space Nostalgia,

This review is from: Space Mission 20 Piece Play Set (Toy)
I ordered this for my 4 year-old who was showing an interest in outer space and astronauts, etc. He enjoys showing the set to the neighbor kids, and their parents. The details are fabulous for such an inexpensive toy as this. However, I have two HUGE GRIPES, but would still recommend this toy for purchase. First, the pieces are NOT TO SCALE. So from an educational standpoint, I'm still having trouble trying to explain that the 4 astronauts included (approx. 1" tall each) actually sat in the service, command and lunar modules (approx. 1-2" tall each), and the modules were actually inside the tip of the Saturn V rocket (approx 1/4" space in a 5" rocket). There is a separate command module piece that's about the size of a 2-liter soda bottle cap, and this is bigger than the command module attached to the servide module in another piece. The communications center truck is bigger than the space shuttle, but the shuttle does sit on the Boeing 747(?), but doesn't snap on so the shuttle falls off "in flight," and the two booster rockets and orange external fuel tank for the shuttle are not included. You get the idea...Secondly, there was NO GUIDE BOOK included to explain what each piece is!! So growing up during the manned space flights program, I had to rely on my memory for what piece was what, and I must say, I did damn good. I then ordered [ASIN:0753451336 The Best Book of Spaceships]and that finally helped in validating my explanations. We promised to visit Cape Canaveral one day so that my son can see how big some of these items really were. The pieces are somewhat fragile, so if your child likes to manhandle toys, I'd probably order something more durable. But my 4 yr-old hasn't broken or lost anything--yet, after nearly a month.

My grandson wants to be an astronaut when he grows up, he's 5 now. This is a great toy for imagining that. It's metal, not plastic! Very authentic in the reproduction of the space craft, etc.
4.0 out of 5 stars
Lots of Fun For Our Space Theme!,

I try to come up with a theme for Christmas presents whenever I can. We really enjoyed the "Space" theme and spent hours and hours playing together. My grandson wanted me to play with him with his space toys. We fixed up a pizza board to look like the surface of the moon. We definitely got our money's worth out of this project. I wish they were all this easy to create and enjoy.
Looking for the next theme!
