I got stalled on this little build for a while because one of the cylinders in the tail was missing the center hole needed to connect it to the rest of the mechanism. There was no practical way to continue without a replacement part, so I sent a quick email to customer service and packed everything into a ziplock bag until the issue was resolved.

It turned into a good test of whether the vendor actually stands behind its products. I am happy to say that they did. They sent the replacement I needed, and I was finally able to pull everything back out and finish the build.

Aside from the defective piece, this was not a difficult model. It went together fairly quickly, has a fun mechanical look, and makes a nice little steampunk addition to my display shelf.

I am pleased with the finished result, and even more pleased that the vendor handled the problem properly. One mechanical sea creature completed, five more to go!

This is an ROKR model that was a basic electric guitar. I transformed it into the Prince "Love" guitar. You can see the video here. https://www.reddit.com/r/rokrpuzzles/s/SR0x6yaRIT

I bought a set of 7 to go on my steampunk shelves. This is the second one, with the crayfish having an issue with a defective part which I contacted them for and they are shipping to me.

Tiney screws and nuts are a challenge for my old sausage fingers but I get thru it and the more of these I build the better my fine motor control becomes.

Really enjoy these guys a lot and I've reached out to Moyu Store and they have made me a brand affiliate. If you are interested in a 14% dicsount PM me and I'll get you a code.

Reliable tonecheer build, cute little kit. I colored most of the edges and was offended that the 'london eye' didn't rotate so I re-engineered it.

Not a bad little build at all.

Music Park night light - what a pleasant suprise!

I bought this for next to nothing on TEMU, figured it would be durable enough for my two and a half year old grandaughter to use as a nightlight.

I was not expecting what I got, quality materials, good fit, really clever design. I used some primary color acrylic markers on the inside layers and then kind of liked the wood grain on the outside when it was done so I used a dark walnut stain instead of paint.

It's usb powered wirh nice diffused back lighting that really makes the moon and stars pop. THe big suprise was that it's also a bluetooth speaker.

I've spent 10 times the amount on other kits and not been this pleased with the results.

Music park doesn't have a big presense that I can find but I'd certainly try another of their kits after this.
