Replogle Globes 12/1 Lunar Wonder Globe 11cm Diameter

This is a spiffy-looking globe, but it's not very tough at all.My first one lasted two months before my son dropped it.The arm snapped in two and couldn't be glued.So I ordered a second one.That one arrived with a broken arm.I sent it back and gave up.The plastic arm that holds this globe is just too fragile.

It's a very nice ten-dollar lunar globe. It's very detailed but easy to read.

The construction does seem a little fragile, but it's a ten-dollar globe. I wasn't expecting cast iron. As mentioned in an earlier review, it will break if it's dropped. Big surprise. Most things will. Try not to drop it.

The globe itself is fine. The stand is so flimsy it arrived already broken. (I didn't damage it while removing it form the box; before I opened the box, I could see the globe lying at the bottom with the stand broken off through the side of the box.)

I also wish it showed a physical scale rather than just noting that the scale is 1:32,000,000.

I use this globe for astronomy presentations. If used with a standard 12" "Earth" globe... .this is a good first-order approximation for the size of the Moon. Place them about 30 feet apart for a scale Earth-Moon system.

I love that things are labeled on this cute little globe. Although it doesn't spin too easy, and it seems a little flimsy and might break easily if given to a smaller child, it was a cute gift to give to someone curious to learn more about our immediate space in the sky.
