These
are models kits that normally have moving parts and features. Either
through manually apply the energy, or through rubberbands
or windings. They not only make spectacular models to look
at, but they are fascinating to watch engage with their
many moving parts.
These
are very popular as gifts. Perhaps people just like mechanical things
that move, but with wood being the easiest to work with,
they're easier for most folks to build with little or no model experience.
NOTE: There are some that do not have moving parts, and are considered more of a static model. They are still made of wood though and can still be fun to assemble and display.
