I was at Five Below with the kids this past weekend and for $1, I found a bin that had some Retro Blocks block building kits from Block Tech. They had a number of 80s looking items, including this faux Gameboy with the wrong number of buttons.

I've not done any Block Tech kits before and wasn't sure how well they held up, but for a buck, I was willing to take the risk.

It connected together pretty easy. Easy enough instructions and it looks like a cute, fake Gameboy.

Would get another one.
