Toysmith: Classic Pin Art, Moveable Metal Pins to Create 3D Images, Great Conversation Piece, Suitable for Home or the Office, For Ages 8 and up, Black/Sliver, 5 - 10 years

My son loves this thing and actually plays with it all the time. The metal pins are sturdy and the quality seems much better than other toys that are mostly plastic. The weight of the metal pins does make it harder to balance upright, but not a big deal.

Great product, seems very well made and works as it should!

I’m very happy with this purchase. I gave one to each of my 8 & 9 year old granddaughters and they love playing with it and leaving a different shaped mold standing for others who come over to view. It’s very heavy. It’s not a toy for younger children without supervision at all times. Easy to drop and break. Solid metal pins is what makes it so heavy. I highly recommend for an older child or adult who likes to fiddle and fool around with something.

Bought this for my five year old boy for Christmas. He loved it but accidentally dropped it on the carpet within minutes of opening. It disintegrated and metal pins were everywhere, which my other four yo son decided would be fun to pick up and throw. Complete disaster. My 5 yo was very sad. Great idea, but significant design flaw in product in that the clear acrylic front is connected to the body by cheap plastic pins. These break without much effort at all. Once broken there is nothing to hold the metal pins in. They go everywhere. Makes you wonder what they possibly could have been thinking when they made this. Summary: looks great on the website and kids love this product, so seems like a great idea to buy it, but do not buy this one. Cheap piece of junk. You will be disappointed.

Item was as described. It was smaller than anticipated. It came in one piece. However, toy looks cheap as almost everything except the nails are made of plastic (even the screws that hold it together are plastic!). Around 10 nails were bent and thus didn't go back to original position fast enough or got stuck. I had to either send it back to Amazon or fix it myself. I fixed it myself, but it was a pain in the ass. I was not careful enough to let the pins spill... and literally had to poke in every single nail back in! Of course, I developed some method to insert them quickly, but if I had failed one more time, I would've seriously given up. It was quite ridiculous and took me several hours to fix. If you decide to fix it yourself, be EXTRA CAREFUL! Remember to not let the pins spill!

Was worried this may get destroyed during shipping, but it arrived intact for me. It's fun to play, but it may tilt backwards if you don't push enough pins forward

I needed a toy that my 6 yr old son with autism could play with while his siblings were in a reading class. The "Pin Box" completely grabbed his attention. He stuck toys behind the needles and played with it for a long time. Other kids were fascinated by it, especially when putting it up against their faces. One caveat is that you should periodically tighten the bolts that hold the unit together (I did this by hand). I did NOT do this originally and noticed one day that quite a few needles were sticking at various slants. They had become misaligned because the bolts had loosened. I had to individually straighten maybe 50 or so needles (by carefully loosening the bolts but not completely disassembling the unit) back into each pinhole. A BIG PAIN, but necessary because this is a very beloved toy. I'd get it again if this conks out.

My son first saw one of these at a family members house in Germany and was hooked ever since. This year we decided to get him one for Christmas and without a doubt a big hit for him. Always something new to look at when we walk into his room. A couple of the pins were slightly bent and wouldn't always retract when tipping it upside down but that was easily fixed with some pliers now they all word like they should.

Muy buen producto, entretenido y que sirve como decoración. Busqué este producto después de ver a un conocido con este artículo, me dijo haberlo comprado en un museo de la CDMX y cuando dijo el precio me quedé de... en serio?! Sin decirle, para no hacerlo sentir estafado, lo busqué aquí y me costó un tercio, el mismito. En verdad que estoy maravillado de comprar en Amazon, las mejores compras que he hecho son en Amazon!

Used for therapy with my child. All my children love it! Big hit

Love this retro toy. Have it on display. Great conversation starter for guests.

My grandson was looking for one of these and I'm so glad I found it on amazon

Christmas presents for my grandchildren. Something different and very well made.
