We had a great time putting this together. It is not the easiest instruction book to follow and you need to be very careful when trying to read the images and translate that into the model. The one fault is that one of the plastics (blue) seems to be a little fragile. One broke during construction and two more when we finally took it appart.

- Building this race track of over 1000 pieces is a true challenge. Your plan reading skills will for sure develop significantly
- Once built, it is fun to race the cars!
- The big weakness in the construction is the engine and the two chains pulling the cars up for a new race. 1) The chains do not very smoothly and sometimes get stuck, 2) if the motor is turned on to run in the wrong way, the chain gets completely stuck and blocks the engine

K'nex Scorpion Kit
3 Feb 2012
Amazon Verified Purchase
Durability:
Educational:
Fun:
K'nex has been a valued hands-on product used by educators for many years. The Scorpion Kit is another in a long series of motivational experiences for children and adults too. As a retired educator who had his students use the Kits for many years, I thought that I would finally enjoy the experiences now that I am retired. I have been amazed by the technology involved with the design and the construction of the Kits. If an individual truly pays attention to the basics of what she/he is working with, and the Scorpion is certainly no exception, that person will learn about how buildings (and roller coasters) remain standing and functional for a long period of time. Cross-beams, angles, support, creativity, and "here's a better way to do it" are just a small sampling of the exciting educational concepts involved. I am in the process of constructing a recreation room full of K'nex products. My grandchildren are excited about the project and ask plenty of deeper thinking questions about what is going on as the "toys" do their thing. I purchased this product through Amazon.com because it is saving me plenty of money as I proceed with my "senior" project.

We're Hooked!
13 Feb 2012
Durability:

This was a Christmas gift to my 9 year old daughter from her grandparents. It is the first K'nex item we've ever had or built, but it certainly won't be the last. This set is amazing--hats off to the design team at K-nex! The directions are extremely detailed and easy to follow, but my daughter did require guidance (and I had a blast working on it too!). We had wonderful discussions about the physics and engineering of roller coasters, and just as importantly, fun working together. The educational value is golden, my daughter is already drawing up plans for a coaster of her own design (for when we dismantle it) and has requested me to purchase another motor. I nearly leapt for joy, after playing Barbie for so many years!
It is also suprisingly durable. It has been set up in my family room for three weeks now, and has survived my three year old playing Batman and Hot Wheels on it, and also him falling on it (pieces needed to be reattached), and can be picked up and relocated.
Add it to your cart!....now!
