- Reviewed in the United States on February 18, 2024I just started the hobby of metal working. I went to harbor freight to get the tools I thought would work. Fail on my part. My attention was directed to this set.
Night and day difference!
They cut perfectly. They're not flimsy. They get into tight spaces.
I cannot believe how well they work. Do yourself a favor and get them. You won't be disappointed.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 10, 2016This is my first review - but I'll try to make it quick and straight forward.
This set runs a little over $10, yea? Lets keep this in mind.
I stumbled across metal earth and quickly fell in love! This is frankly a decent starters kit. I actually use these the majority of the time far into my 20+ somethingish models.
With that said - yea those other reviews that claim the tools aren't 100% accurately aligned. If you purchase any other set in this price range - well it makes this set look great. Seriously I know. I'll be posting a review in the near future of what didn't work. So in my mind and rationalization this is a small concern especially compartiviely speaking.
I'd recommend these to any metal earth fans just starting out. The set i received was pretty well aligned, although there were some gaps visible when held to a light. BUT this did NOT prove problematic.
For its price - go for it. You'll most likely spend more on hobby pliers piecing a set like this individually. Also if you can pull of the bonus comment then you'll see even at a 20 price range still a great deal.
BONUS COMMENT: if you feel the alignment of the pliers unbearable for some reason… Grab a handheld rotary tool (a.k.a. A Dremel or if you're on a budget some sort of knock & chorded Will most likely be cheaper. Also there's two different thoughts of battery verse power cord whatever floats your boat). Anyways yeah use that tool carefully on a level surface – with the proper protection and what not – To manipulate the pliers to close tighter… Or even sharpen the litter cutter tool. And that's just if your picky like me.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 10, 2023I bought these tools hoping they would help me with putting the metal earth models together easier. I love these they work great for the metal earth models. I have used other brand of tools which worked but not as good as these do. I especially like the metal cutter it cuts really nice and gets in the small spaces easily. Each tool is comfortable and easy to use. I have made a couple models with these tools and wish I had gotten them sooner because it has made it so much easier.
- Reviewed in the United States on June 30, 2023Like most others, I purchased this to put 3D metal models together. The precision side cutter is a must to remove pieces from the sheets, and the snub nose pliers is excellent for bending smaller pieces as well as aligning pieces that might have got a bent when they weren't supposed to.
The needle nose lacks a lot to be desired. I was actually expecting something with a smaller nose, given how small the pieces are that I'm working with. I'm actually still using a smaller needle nose that I had on hand, but that pliers doesn't work for longer bends. This needle nose doesn't work for that either because the edges aren't straight. Plus, you have to exert a lot of pressure on the pliers for it to keep its hold. I'm honestly not sure what good this needle nose pliers even is, and I've already ordered a replacement jewelers needle nose because of how important this tool is.
That said, I give the set 5 stars because it is a good value. Two of the three tools are great, and that was worth the money I spent.
- Reviewed in the United States on August 31, 2024Definitely helpful with the metal art
- Reviewed in the United States on May 20, 2024great tools and great price
- Reviewed in the United States on January 15, 2021This is great kit that gives you everything you need to complete the Metal Earth sets. I got a load of the Disney themed sets and always struggled to find good tools to make it easy. These tools work great and make getting the metal pieces out much easier. Plus you don't have to worry about using tools from the garage that might have chemicals or oil on them. I did find that I don't use the pliers much, but the needle nose pliers and clippers are plenty.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 10, 2015After reading all the reviews for this product, I was very hesitant about buying it at first. The main reason I ended up buying it was for the cutter. I will say that after receiving everything in the mail today, not one of the tools have any sort of issues with them. In fact, these 3 tools literally made the difference between me being able to make the model and me struggling to the point that I give up. I HIGHLY recommend this tool set if you are planning on building any of these sets. So far I have built all 4 of the halo sets, including the guardian that came with the limited edition halo 5 and I have absolutely 0 complaints!! As long as you have a little patience and even a little more time, these 3D models are completely worth your time!! 5 out of 5 for sure!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Muy prácticos
Muy útiles para montar maquetas metal earth, aunque no son indispensables, facilitan algunos pasos. Eso si, para algunos pliegues muy pequeños en muy difícil con estas herramientas y es más sencillo con unas pinzas de depilar por ejemplo

5.0 out of 5 stars Fascinations - Metal Earth Kit-Attrezzi
Ottimo il kit attrezzi della Fascinations. Certo, costa il triplo di quanto si possa trovare per utensili simili; ma questi serrano e tagliano perfettamente.
Il grip dell'impugnatura è solido ma morbido, tutti e tre gli arnesi hanno molla di ritorno, comodissima nel modellismo.
La pinza lunga non è sufficientemente lunga per tutti i pezzi dei modelli Metal Earth, ma per un buon 90%.
Ottimo acquisto.
