I ordered this for Christmas for my son. he opened it and started working on putting it together right away. We do things a bit different in our home at Christmas time. We only open one present at a time then we take the time to check it out, enjoy it, and share or show it around to the rest of the family, then we begin again. It allows everyone to grab the camera and give their gifts to others and enjoy the wonderful reactions on their faces. It also helps children and adults slow down and appreciate those around that took the time and effort and caring that it takes, in giving gifts to others. Makes CHRISTMAS extra special and last longer. Every one wanted to take part in helping my son put this toy together. Thank you for quick shipping, and it arrived on time and was ready for Christmas giving.and receiving.

Recommend to monster lovers, but if you only want to get one or two atlantis sets, I'll go for something else.
