Metalkitor Steampunk Spider 3D Metal Model Kit builds a large mechanical spider in silver steel, styled like a creature from a retro steampunk world, with lights that glow on its back.

Why it is listed here

Few metal kits add lighting, and the listing says the lights on this spider’s back change color, which makes it more of a display piece after dark. At roughly 7.7 x 7.4 in and 590 g when built, it is broad and weighty next to the small sheet models on our list. The 250+ parts and 4 to 6 hour estimate place it in the middle range for complexity.

What the build involves

Use tweezers and needle-nose pliers to set the tabs, twisting each one once so it holds firmly. The legs have many similar parts, so sort them before you begin and build one leg at a time. The listing does not cover the power source for the lights, so check the instructions before you close up the body, and leave a flat spot at least 8 in square for display.

Before you order

Parts, lighting components and packaging are set by the maker and can change between batches – check the current Amazon listing. My Cutebee is an independent comparison site and is not run by any kit brand; the purchase is completed on Amazon.
