Thank you
As a tiny suggestion (and this in no way reduces the 5 star rating one bit) consider better delivery options. Allow me to choose a next day/nominated day delivery experience. But dont take that as criticism - just a suggestion.
Thank you so much very much.
JB, Cincinnati Oh.
These kits have mostly survived not only the three owners, but adventures with additional playpals.
The boys are older now and we are giving them 3 additional explorer sets to allow them to extend their builds and/or replace a couple of older pieces.
Our one dissatisfaction is that we requested these be mailed to their Mom, mailing address confirmed, but it ended up coming to us. Can't afford another shipping fee to forward it on, so they will not get this until after Christmas as they live in another state and we are not traveling during the holidays.
