Automata are whimsical mechanical toys that make cool movements when a crankshaft is turned!

Dragons have long captured the imagination of people around the world, and this amazing Dragon moves it's head, neck, wings and tail as it flies gracefully on it's base as you turn the crank!

A fantastic 3D moving model that is easy to build in an hour or two by beginner model makers, it's fun to use and perfect for dragon lovers and storytellers. All the pieces are pre-cut and ready to go!

Made from natural wood with no coatings or paint on any pieces, all you need are scissors and a ruler.

Great for a school project or rainy day challenge, your Dragon will stand at 40cm tall x 45cm long on it's base. Children are encouraged to decorate their own creature once assembled (paint and feathers not included).

Recommended for ages 9 and up.
Easy to understand instructions with great illustrations.
