<span itemprop="name">Gears didn't connect, didn't walk</span>
<span itemprop="description">My child was so excited to receive this gift and spent all Christmas morning working on it. Unfortunately, the teeth of the gears were to small to connect together and the legs wouldn't move. We had a very disappointed child. I'm not sure if we got a defective kit or not, but we didn't end up seeing if we could exchange it.</span>
