The Trojan Horse was a legendary wooden horse left outside the gates of Troy. The citizens of Troy were curious about this structure and dragged it inside the gates. But legend has it the structure was full of Greek soldiers who then gained entry to the city.This Trojan Horse model allows you to re-create one of the most epic tales of ancient Troy - although on a much smaller scale. The design is based on drawings and written records,Age Rating: 8+ While this kit can be made by youngsters starting around 8 years old (and younger), we like that it is both interesting and compelling for kids of all ages - right up to those in their 90's! We're all children at heart! A great kit for parents and kids to make together! Good for beginner model maker.
