DAHONPA MI-24S Helicopter Medium Utility Military Army Airplane Building Bricks Set, 850+ Pieces Air-Force Build Blocks Toy, Gift for Kid and Adult

This company I think is at or almost on par with Lego and Cobi, I think instructions are way better than both of the other brands. First of all, the instructions also shows how many dimples are on each pieces, for example 12x2 or 4x8 on the instructions. What I also like is that you get 17 little bags that go in a specific order to the instructions, for example you open bag 17 and 1 to complete page 1 to 7. Lego and Cobi have big bags with millions of pieces, so it makes it difficult to find each pieces. This brand has small bags with small amounts of pieces making it easy to find each block. I also like that the blocks are compatible to Lego and Cobi, so they are interchangeable. Price for this kit is so affordable, I only paid 50 buck and I got 800 plus bricks. Seller shipped this kit fast, got it within two weeks. This kit was fun to build with hardly any frustrations and no missing pieces, only thing was that one of the pieces was smashed but wasn't a critical piece. Front tires actually folds into body but the rear wont fold, also the cockpit windows don't open up like the real helicopter only comes off. The main rotor spins and tilts, which was real cool. The passenger compartment doors opens but the one infantry figure doesn't fit well inside it. The color of the bricks in the instructions are a little hard to differentiate, brown/grey/green almost look the same unless compared together in the instructions. The rocket pods don't sick very well to the wings and comes off easily and the under body of the cock pit tends to separate if touched the wrong way but easily fixed with some Elmers glue. The kit comes with stickers for the red star, cock pit control panel, bumper # which I didn't care for, I like the printed graphics on the bricks. Overall, this is a great Mi24 Hind kit for any admirers of this cool USSR Gunship, I would recommend this to any Cold War geeks.

Excellent kit! Grandson very happy!

Great set, very fun build. Not really more than a bookshelf set but still good build quality. No missing pieces and good instructions.

Great helicopter and build, I love it, but I am making minor modifications to the door and rocket pods on the wings. The rocket pods just need the small (usually blue) trchnic pins that can connect to the underside of the blocks so the pods is not so loose as it falls off easily. The doors, I just linked the 1x4 and 1x3 plates between the doors so they opened and closed together. Really good set, no missing peices, pretty easy instructions.

Awesome and very detailed build!

Bought this for my 12-year-old. He loved it and you actually play with it without pieces falling off. Great purchase.

It does not have a lot of extra pieces yeah it is hard to build.

I bought this for my husband because he recently retired and I get tired of watching him sit and watch tv. He really loved working on it. It took him awhile because there are so many pieces. The only setback is that this is russian and he worked on chinooks in the army. But he had a good time putting it together.

This was an epic build, although looks really great when built, some parts issues with some not fitting as tight as hoped but looks amazing when built really happy and now added to collection only real problem is were to display.

Bought this for my daughter as a birthday present, I was very impressed with the packaging and once the kit was built (which didn't take too long at all) I was also very impressed with the built quality. Sometimes you can be put off with the "knock off" lego kits but this certainly was not. Every piece fit together very well and the model looks fantastic with very good realism. Price is very good for a kit of this quality. I would say that this is not for playing with once built but perfect for display although it is very sturdy once built.

This set, though epic in its design, was a very frustrating experience. A lot of parts were missIng and i had to use some of my spare lego parts as substitutions. Not to mention how flimsy the Hind was when it had been assembled. Had to glue on the rocket pods as they kept falling off due to the small connection pins not fitting tightly enough. Once you’ve built the helicopter, the cockpit windshields are impossible to get back into place without taking the helicopter apart and painfully putting it back together. If you’re looking at buying this set, be warned, it’s very fragile, very frustrating to build but the look is fantastic

My 9 year old son was so excited with this gift. Unfortunately couldn't complete it as parts were missing.
