K’NEX’s new K-Force Build and Blast Mega Boom Building Set gives master blasters the opportunity to build their own blasters, capable of blasting a dart up to 75 feet away!  What kid wouldn’t want to build their own blaster?<\/p>\n

We love this idea, it cultivates creativity, engineering, and focus.  Although there is no inherent technology in this set, we wanted to highlight the K-Force Mega Boom Building Set due to its STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) nature.  <\/p>\n

Kids can build their own blasters using up to 335 enclosed K’NEX pieces.  They follow step-by-step instructions to build the blaster they’re interested in.  K’NEX includes so many varied K’NEX pieces, that kids will likely explore building their own custom blasters too.<\/p>\n

The K’NEX Mega Boom Building Set includes rods, connectors, 2 blaster chambers, 3 dart holders, 2 pre-load rings, and 7 foam darts.  Kids can even build two different  blasters to challenge each other in a draw.<\/p>\n

To build the blaster on the package, you can use the enclosed instructions.  For more options, you can go online and download instructions for 5 alternate blasters and build-able targets.<\/p>\n

K’NEX created  a number of K-Force Build and Blast kits.  Every kit is compatible with the entire K-Force line.<\/p>\n
