Almost lifelike, the Mega Mantis Aluminum Kit is assembled from metal and bendable aluminum parts. Your bendable buddy is user friendly. You can hold it, bend it, and even move its legs and other appendages. Each kit contains approximately 25 hard and soft pre-punched aluminum parts, a few screws, nuts, springs and assembly tools, included. Easy to follow instructions with detailed graphic illustrations pave the way for successful and satisfying kit building. Great fun for kids 10 and up. As for adults, let that inner kid come out!
