Worth every penny
This toy is great for fine motor skills, problem solving and imagination. It has provided hours of play to my 2 year old over the last 10 months and is still a favourite. He's a huge fan of Octonauts but particularly the Gups so this is perfect. It amazes me how many combinations he comes up with. Plastic but robust. Some pieces are stiff to put in but that's good for building up finger strength which is important when they learn to write. I always supervise him with it because of the smaller pieces but now he's 3, I'll probably keep it where he can reach it so it gets more use. Would highly recommend.

The Best Gup
My almost four year old has many of the Octonauts toys. They are robust and many are great in the bath. This is simply the best however. Every night he sits down to "make a gup" before taking if off to the bath and introducing it to Barnacles and Kwazi. It's been like this for months. It's great for him to practice designing his own toys and now he say he wants to be a mechanic. In fact he insists he is one already. Only complaint is that the legs don't stay in so way.I only wish the little rabbit mechanic was included and that there were expansion packs. It would be great to have some new variations for pieces to add. Still a five star toy no question.

Better than the GUP F...
As I'm sure you all know, the actual Gup F features in a single episode of the Octonauts, where it is bicycle-powered and a bit of a joke. This toy is quite an upgrade, featuring a host of lovely details from the other GUPs. My son is very pleased with it and reconfigures the various elements every few minutes. As with all the GUPs, this is well-made and durable, although I'm sure we'll start losing the parts one-by-one... already had to search under car-seats for a missing eye.

Great product, but why the dust?
i had the same as the other reviewers, mine came covered in a strange plastic dust on all the pieces. Had to take each piece out separately and clean it before wrapping the present. Apart from that, my son loves it.

Fantastic!
Brilliant - we actually surprised our son with an Octonaut product he didn't know existed! Kept him amused for hours and is a perfect addition to his Octonauts collection. Really sturdy and perfect for floor or bath. Very different from the Gups A - E as it is more interactive with the bits to add to it (and more pieces to lose too!), but still a perfect toy for any little Octonauts fan. Would recommend.

Great toy for an octonauts enthusiast - especially good if they like building things but don't quite have the dexterity or imagination for lego yet. My son loved this at 4 and we enjoyed the endless combinations of interesting mission vehicles and the adventures they'd go on.

Build-a-gup
This was bought for my 3 year old for Xmas - being a Octonaut mad this purchase was a no-brainer. There are some small parts but it is well built and is quite safe. He has great fun taking pieces on and off the Gup and plays out his own Octonaut stories. Well worth the money!

Plastic covered in strange powdery finish
Bought this for the second time, as the first one had a strange residue/powdery finish to the plastic, so I returned it. But the second one is exactly the same! So will be returning it too. Very disappointed as its meant to be a birthday present.

Medidas que inducen a error
Es la primera vez que uso Amazon y estoy contenta con el servicio ofrecido, todo el pedido llego tal y como habían anunciado en su pagina y en perfecto estado.Lo único que no me satisface es que los juguetes que he comprado, en cuanto a las medidas de los mismos, me refiero al tamaño, no viene muy bien especificado en el apartado de características, pues las medidas que especifican te hacen creer que es de la caja que lleva el juguete pero en realidad es del juguete en si, sin envoltorio.en mi caso en concreto, me desilusiones un poco cuando abri la caja y me encontre con unos juguetes tan grandes que veremos a ver si le gustan a mi hijo.Esta opinión puede aplicarse a todos y cada uno de ellos.

Great item for imaginative play
My six and seven year old kids have played with this set of toys for the past couple years. They were first introduced to Octonauts on public television. The stories are great. The kids learn a lot about sea creatures. The kids love to use the toys to replay the stories from the television shows and even to make their own stories.Each toy set is amazingly durable and simple to use. I love the well made products with sturdy plastic pieces that my kids are unable to break. Each item is somewhat pricey when first released for sale, but seems to come down quickly in price to a more affordable amount. this particular set has lots of little pieces that could prove a choking hazard. They would also be a nightmare to keep together if you have a less than organized child/playroom. It has far more pieces than most Octonauts sets because it is made to allow kids to design their own Gup. Bonus point for cool factor there!!I would recommend this set to anyone that wants their child to participate in creative, imaginative play.

Beaucoup de possibilité de construction
Un gup rempli d'accessoires permettant beaucoup d'assemblages différents. Les enfants aiment intervertir les pièces et laisser libre cours à leur imagination avec des montages parfois improbables ! un petit guide est également fourni avec 10 exemples de montages. Avantage lorsqu'on a déjà l'Octocapsule, il n'y a pas de personnage fourni avec ce gup ce qui évite d'avoir plusieurs exemplaires d'un même personnage.

Kreativer Guppy-Bausatz
Ein Guppy-Bausatz mit dem man die meisten Guppies nachbauen kann, und noch viele eigene entwerfen kann.Für Oktonauten-Fans die auch noch dazu gerne selbst entwerfen und basteln sehr zu empfehlen!Es gibt viele verschiedene Teile die sich an beliebige Positionen stecken lassen, so ist mein Sohn auf die Idee gekommen dass die Beine der Guppy-D auch als Raketen-Antrieb verwendet werden kann wenn sie um 90° gedreht am Heck montiert werden- und nun gibt es bei ihm auch die Raketen-Guppy ;-)Würde es ihm sofort wieder kaufen.

Lots of Creative Fun!
This Gup was a huge hit at our house - it has been in every room, gets shown to most every visitor and we have to tell our kiddo that Gups are not for snuggling because he wants to take it to bed with him! It's fun that it can be changed so many different ways and all the pieces are easy to put in or remove. They also stay quite nicely when they are in so that is also much appreciated. The only con for me is that the pieces can be left laying around in different rooms, but that is more a function of a kiddo playing with it and not cleaning up than a reflection of the toy - a problem to be expected when you get a toy with lots of pieces. As a mom of a kiddo who loves Octonauts - this one was a winner and has a lot more creative play potential than some of the other Gups that can only be used one way. Glad we bought it!
