We are a bit disappointed to see this set. It is larger and slightly more comprehensive than a smaller version from the same manufacture that we purchased two months ago in Waterstones . However they both have the major failing that there is no sun included. It is very difficult for children to orientate themselves when the focal point is not present. There was also no guidebook in the smaller set to confirm each planet identification. We needed to consult our grandson's library to establish the correct order for display.

I bought it as per on the packet 240 pieces. I had only 9 planets , blue tack and string. No stars and asteroids. It’s a bit strange as Waterstones allow to sell such items without any restrictions. This should be addressed.
