 Better than we expectedFeb 22, 2008
My son bought this with his allowance money. He thought it looked like fun, but this is way better than what we imagined it would be. He was able to start working with it without even needing the directions, and I liked it because it didn't require any baking or heat lamp to make the aliens. That's a lot better than the bug factories and things like that we've had before. On top of that, the case is a cool spaceship that doubles as a toy for the aliens you make. Here's what my son had to say about it:
I liked the different kinds of aliens that you could make. It was cool. I made some really funky ones. There's really cool goo stuff to make the aliens. It was awesome. I really liked it.

Excellent choice over Creepy CrawlersMar 06, 2008
By S. Lipson
Very impressed w/ this toy. Concept is similar to Creepy Crawlers w/out the hassel of electricity (heat,danger,and time to cook) or odor. Martian Matter is quick, easy, odor free, not messy, and end results/variety is excellent and brightly colored. Each Martian sets firm in just 5 minutes. The clay in which you make an impression mold is soft and fluffy-not hard to manage or crumbly. Three small cans of different colored clay are included-a note states if clay becomes dry you can add drops of water as necessary. You get about 10 half Martian mold pieces which are all "pairable"-any two will make a unique Martian. The amount of liqiud used is very small and you get three 3oz. bottles; enough to make probably 50 or more Martians. The storage unit is an adorable spaceship which cleverly houses everything neat and orderly! There's even 3 clear dome covered seat pods to hold your favorite 3 Martians! Sure to be a huge hit for the 5-10 yr old group!

Much Better Then ExpectedMar 08, 2008
By Brooke L. Bullock
I bought this for my nephews 7th birthday. I thought electricity would be needed but nope,just mold and wait. It was a huge hit and we made probably 20 aliens the first day. I also bought some refills but we havent had to open them yet. You can make lots of aliens with the three bottles of Lunar Lava and three cannisters of Meteor Mud included. The space ship is adorable and holds all your supplies. There are three pods on the front of the spaceship to store your creations. You get a knife and tweezers to perform your very own alien autopsies! The instructions are clear and pictures are provided. You even get instructions on how to make your alien have gooey guts! This toy is a hoot and my only complaint is one of the pods top will not stay on.

 What a blast!Mar 30, 2008
By Katherine Berry
"Venomous Kate"
My 8 y/o wanted this toy for his birthday. Personally, I was skeptical. I worried it would be too hard to use and prove to be boring.
Turns out, I needn't have worried.
He put it together himself in three minutes following the clear instructions. I showed him one time how to press the Martian Mud into the circular mold then close the hatch to make impressions with the figures he'd picked out. The Mud is quite easy for little hands to manipulate, and the bottles of Lava (the goo that makes the Martians) are easy for little hands to grasp, too.
He's been an alien-making fiend ever since, coming up with all sorts of combinations. He sometimes uses two colors of Lava to make an alien, and loves putting them together with two heads.
I'm not sure this toy is educational, per se, but it's provided him with hours of fun already. The refills are reasonably priced, too, considering how long the stuff lasts. Great toy!

Totally kewl alien makerApr 17, 2008
By R. Abney
"Nana Mona"
I live near Nashville TN and they were airing a commercial for this product on some cartoon channel. I searched everywhere even EBAY with no luck or too high. Found it on Amazon at a super price. Got it fast and my 2 grandsons Haden and Gavin are still lovin' makin' aliens evertime they visit Nana Mona. Better than I thought it would be. Neat to store it all away. No heat required.
