Awesome toy!! . I have 3 young boys (ages 2,5 and 7). They all LOVE this toy (we have the full size set). We've had it for about 6-9 months and we still have gel left and none of it's ever dried out (like another person had posted). Maybe they didn't put the lids on tight or they had defective bottles. When we got this gift I actually thought it looked dumb and assumed it would be played with once and then tossed... but to my surprise the kids STILL love this after all this time! We play with it every few weeks and there is just something about it that they just fell in love with. We know at least 5 other young boys who have this and their moms say that they love it too. I highly recommend it. The reason I'm on here today is because I'm buying one as a gift for my nephew.

No problems with ours. My boys ages 5 & 9 like it a lot! . We have a larger set of this same stuff. My kids love it. We have had it for an entire year and have used it many times. Our bottles never have had any trouble with drying out. We are still using the original ones we got with our set and have made many aliens over 12 months. The kids will forget about the toy for a few weeks then they get it out and the martian mania starts all over again. No problems with ours.
Note that the aliens themselves do dry up if you don't keep them stored airtight. Our aliens don't ever last long because the boys like to leave them out and play with them. They shrivel up and go into the trash after a few days.

Play - Doh Martian Matter Alien Lab Playset Opinions
My Boys Love It! . My 5 year old received this for his birthday last year and it was a big hit. The boys have made "lucky fishing lures" for their dad and uncle to take on their fishing trips. It is one of those toys that is played with for a couple of hours one day and then put in the closet and pulled out again in a few weeks and the fun starts all over again. We did not have any problems with the mud or gel except that they have used it so often that we have to order more! A great toy!

So-So . This toy was messy and boring and I was happy to get rid of it when we ran out of the blue and yellow goo. The only reason I gave it some stars is because my 4 year old loved watching me play with it---that's right, he didn't actually want to get his hands dirty, but he loved watching others do it. The tweezers are horrible and the cover of the box looks way more exciting than it actually it. I'm glad I only spent $5 on this product when it was on sale!
One cool creative toy! . My kids had the spaceship version a year ago. On my son's 6th birthday, he remembered playing this toy and this toy is what he wanted the most. This is the third set we bought. His 4-yr-old sister also love playing with him with this toy. Out of all the Alien Makers' kit, this is the most inexpensive that is a complete kit and not a refill.
This is one fun cool CREATIVE toy. This toy is not cheaply made but made of sturdy thick plastic. It has a plastic knife for dissecting and a plastic tweezer. In the middle is a small light table where you can place the aliens for examination; which explains why you need a battery. (You don't need the batteries to create the aliens, just strictly for lights and effects!)
You create the molds by pressing the aliens into the Meteor Mud (seems like a regular play-doh). Then you pour the Lunar lava into the mold. They love to combine colors to create colorful aliens. It will take around 5 minutes for the lunar lava to solidify into a gel. Make sure to cover the mold with a flat Meteor Mud or it will not set properly. No heat needed to set. Since the mold is made up of play-doh like material, it is very easy to remove the aliens. The stuff are non-toxic. Each bottle of lunar lava is 2 oz. There are 2 bottles included and you can makes a lot of aliens with them. This is a pretty nice gift for kids 5 years and above.
Minor Cons:
- Non toxic, but if you have allergy from wheat, this product contains wheat.

FUN - my son hasn't stopped playing with it . Fun and economical. My son has played with this product every day since receiving it.
Cons Review
lab playset . If your kids like play-doh, they'll like this playset. The biggest drawback is having to reorder the play-doh whenever they run out. It would help with eye - hand co-ordination and muscle development
Once gel is opened it dries in 24 hours . My son got this for his birthday party Friday night. He made one alien and another on Saturday morning. It is now Sunday morning and both alien gels have turned solid in their containers...even with the top on. This toy was a lot of fun and now I have a 7 year old in tears. Of course I can purchase replacement gel for more $ to have the toy last as expected. Gotcha! I checked the packaging and there is no warning that the gel will harden once opened. We followed the directions. The caps were on tight and the unused gel solidified right in the bottle. This toy is pretty much a one shot deal. Save your money.
