The scientific genius of Leonardo da Vinci is brought to life through 10 articulated models. The inventions that inspired these snap-together replicas are taken from the pages of da Vinci's priceless and awe-inspiring notebooks. All models are made of plastic and require no special tools. Manuals are very educational and teach how these inventions have evolved into what they are today.
