Laser Cannon (Qiji 2715)

About this set

This is KEEPPLEY 2715, the Laser Cannon from the High-Tech Era series, a sci-fi mech vehicle with 399 pieces and a 2/5 difficulty rating. The box lists ages 6+. The color scheme is black, red, yellow and gray, with red and black carrying most of the visual weight. The build centers on a tracked chassis topped by a rotating turret and twin laser cannon, plus a motorcycle side vehicle with wheels. Start with the track chassis and get the track link count and left-right symmetry right the first time, since a misaligned track will foul the turret rotation later. Then mount the rotating turret, and finish with the twin cannon and the motorcycle. At 6+ the clutch is forgiving, making this a good entry point for younger builders who want a sci-fi mech vehicle for their shelf.
